to determine the presence of anticardiolipin (acl) antibodies in patients with ischemic events, we designed a case-control study. we studied 33 patients with unstable angina, 33 male patients with myocardial infarction and 34 control subjects with no evidence of ischemic heart disease. plasma samples were assessed for igg anticardiolipin antibodies by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (elisa). ...

normal 0 false false false en-us x-none ar-sa background: this randomized clinical trial compared rates of stroke or transient ischemic attack recurrence or death in patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale (pfo) who received medical treatment with aspirin or warfarin. materials and methods: forty-four iranian patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale participat...

detection and modification of the risk factors of stroke may be the most effective strategy for preventing its often irreversible consequences. a longitudinal prospective study was implemented to evaluate the effect of several risk factors on the course of cerebrovascular disease. the study groups were composed of 3s8 normal volunteers, and 308 patients with transient ischemic attacks. the two ...

Background: Among different mechanisms, oxidative stress has a possible role in neural injury in cerebrovascular events. Objectives: Assessment the oxidants-antioxidants imbalance in ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. Materials and Methods: Serum level of malondialdehyde, the main marker of lipid peroxidation, and total antioxidant capacity were measured in a group of 48 stroke patients consis...
