Redefinition of transient ischemic attack improves prognosis of transient ischemic attack and ischemic stroke: an example of the will rogers phenomenon.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The recent redefinition of transient ischemic attack (TIA) reclassifies patients with acute infarction on magnetic resonance imaging as ischemic stroke. Redefinition will improve the prognosis of both TIA and ischemic stroke, an epidemiological paradox known as the Will Rogers phenomenon. We sought to quantify the impact of this phenomenon. METHODS Incidence of TIA, ris...

متن کامل100 - Transient Ischemic Attack and Acute Ischemic Stroke
The yearly incidence of TIA in the United States has been estimated to be approximately 200,000 to 500,000 but may be higher because of the high frequency of underreporting of these events by medical professionals. The annual incidence of TIA may be less and the annual incidence of stroke may be higher if the tissue-based definition were applied to all patients evaluated for TIA. It has been es...
