Occurrence and predictors of persistent impaired glucose tolerance after acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND Impaired glucose tolerance is often present in patients with a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke and doubles the risk of recurrent stroke. This impaired glucose tolerance can be transient, reflecting an acute stress response, or persistent, representing undiagnosed impaired glucose metabolism possibly requiring treatment. We aimed to assess the occurrence of persiste...
متن کاملImpaired glucose tolerance increases stroke risk in nondiabetic patients with transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Impaired glucose tolerance, an intermediate metabolic state between normal glucose and diabetes characterized by nonfasting glucose levels between 7.8 to 11.0 mmol/L, is associated with an increased stroke risk in patients with coronary heart disease. Whether impaired glucose tolerance increases the risk of stroke in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor ...
متن کاملRisk of Stroke after Transient Ischemic Attack or Minor Stroke.
BACKGROUND Previous studies conducted between 1997 and 2003 estimated that the risk of stroke or an acute coronary syndrome was 12 to 20% during the first 3 months after a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke. The TIAregistry.org project was designed to describe the contemporary profile, etiologic factors, and outcomes in patients with a TIA or minor ischemic stroke who receive care ...
متن کاملPredictors of Stroke After Transient Ischemic Attack in Children.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Transient ischemic attack (TIA) in children has received far less attention compared with TIA in adults. The risk factors of stroke after TIA in children are relatively unknown. We aimed to determine the percentage of children who have stroke after TIA and the risk factors associated with stroke after TIA. METHODS We searched the medical records at Boston Children's Hos...
متن کاملLow ankle-brachial index predicts cardiovascular risk after acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A low ankle-brachial blood pressure index (ABI) is an established risk marker for cardiovascular disease and mortality in the general population, but little is known about its prognostic value in individuals with acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS An inception cohort of 204 patients with acute ischemic stroke or TIA was followed up for a m...
