Risk factors for cervical atherosclerosis in patients with transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our purpose was to study potential determinants of the presence and the severity of cervical atherosclerosis in patients with transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke. METHODS Two hundred ninety-four patients up to 60 years of age were included in this cross-sectional study. The male to female ratio was 171/123. Atherosclerosis was defined as the presence of a...
متن کاملSecular trends in ischemic stroke subtypes and stroke risk factors.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Early diagnosis and treatment of a stroke improves patient outcomes, and knowledge of the cause of the initial event is crucial to identification of the appropriate therapy to maximally reduce risk of recurrence. Assumptions based on historical frequency of ischemic subtypes may need revision if stroke subtypes are changing as a result of recent changes in therapy, such a...
متن کاملIschemic stroke subtypes: a population-based study of incidence and risk factors.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is scant population-based information on incidence and risk factors for ischemic stroke subtypes. METHODS We identified all 454 residents of Rochester, Minn, with a first ischemic stroke between 1985 and 1989 from the Rochester Epidemiology Project medical records linkage system. We used Stroke Data Bank criteria to assign infarct subtypes after reviewing medical ...
متن کاملPrediction Factors of Recurrent Ischemic Events in One Year after Minor Stroke
BACKGROUND The risk of a subsequent stroke following a minor stroke is high. However, there are no effective rating scales to predict recurrent stroke following a minor one. Therefore, we assessed the risk factors associated with recurrent ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) within one year of minor stroke onset in order to identify possible risk factors. METHODS Eight hundred ...
متن کاملA comparison of risk factors and prognosis for transient ischemic attacks and minor ischemic strokes. The Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project.
In a community-based study of transient ischemic attack and stroke, we identified 184 cases of transient ischemic attack and 213 cases of first-ever minor ischemic stroke. A comparison of age, sex, and prevalence of coexistent vascular diseases and risk factors revealed no major differences between the two groups. The risk of further stroke and of further stroke and/or death was greater in pati...
