Metabolic Syndrome Is a Strong Risk Factor for Minor Ischemic Stroke and Subsequent Vascular Events
BACKGROUND Minor ischemic stroke (MIS) represents a major global public health problem worldwide due to high incidence. The aim of this study was to investigate whether metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a strong risk for MIS and subsequent vascular events (SVE). METHODS A retrospective cohort study was performed examining symptomatic MIS in a Chinese neurologic outpatient population aged over 25 y...
متن کاملRetinal vascular caliber and extracranial carotid disease in patients with acute ischemic stroke: the Multi-Centre Retinal Stroke (MCRS) study.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Previous studies show that both retinal vascular caliber and carotid disease predict incident stroke in the general population, but the exact relationship between these 2 microvascular and macrovascular structural risk factors is unclear. We studied the relationship between retinal vascular caliber and carotid disease in patients presenting with acute ischemic stroke. M...
متن کاملdysphagia in acute ischemic stroke
Introduction: Swallowing dysfunction complicates acute strokes in 25-32% of cases and directly affects patientschr('39') prognosis and recovery. Dysphagia complicates the course of acute strokes through its potential of the development of chest infection, nutritional problems, and dehydration. Dysphagia is also an independent predictor of respiratory morbidity and mortality in acute stroke. In...
متن کاملAntiphospholipid antibodies and subsequent thrombo-occlusive events in patients with ischemic stroke.
CONTEXT The presence of antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) has been associated with vascular occlusive events. However, the role of aPL in predicting ischemic events, particularly recurrent ischemic stroke, is controversial. OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of baseline aPL positivity (ie, positivity for anticardiolipin antibodies [aCL], lupus anticoagulant antibodies [LA], or both) on subseque...
متن کاملAntiphospholipid Antibodies and Subsequent Thrombo-occlusive Events in Patients With Ischemic Stroke
KNOWLEDGE OF WELL-ESTABlished risk factors for recurrent stroke only partially predicts the occurrence of new events, which has led to a search for new risk factors. Several potential hematologic markers of hypercoagulability, including antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) have been associated with vascular thrombo-occlusive events in most, but not all case-control studies. In prospective studies,...
