The aim of this updated guideline is to provide comprehensive and timely evidence-based recommendations on the prevention future stroke among survivors ischemic or transient attack. addressed all clinicians who manage secondary for these patients. Evidence-based are provided control risk factors, intervention vascular obstruction, antithrombotic therapy cardioembolism, antiplatelet noncardioembolic stroke. Recommendations also recurrent in a variety specific circumstances, including aortic...
Each year the American Heart Association, in conjunction with Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Institutes of Health, other government agencies, brings together most up-to-date statistics on heart disease, stroke, their risk factors presents them its Stroke Statistical Update.The Update is a valuable resource researchers, clinicians, healthcare policy makers, media, lay public, many others who seek best national data available disease factor prevalence, incidence,...

Despite the use of antiplatelet agents, usually aspirin, in patients who have had an ischemic stroke, there is still a substantial rate recurrence. Therefore, we investigated whether warfarin, which effective and superior to aspirin prevention cardiogenic embolism, would also prove recurrent stroke with prior noncardioembolic stroke.
Patients with ischemic stroke or transient attack (TIA) are at increased risk for future cardiovascular events despite current preventive therapies. The identification of insulin resistance as a factor and myocardial infarction raised the possibility that pioglitazone, which improves sensitivity, might benefit patients cerebrovascular disease.
Abstract Regular, evidence‐based assignment of patients to etiologic stroke categories is essential enable valid comparison among studies. We designed an algorithm (SSS‐TOAST) that incorporated recent advances in imaging and epidemiology identify the most probable TOAST category presence evidence for multiple mechanisms. Based on weight evidence, each subtype was subdivided into 3 subcategories as “evident”, “probable”, or “possible”. Classification determined via predefined specific...

Pneumonia is an important complication of ischemic stroke and increases mortality 3-fold. Five guidelines recommend a dysphagia screen before oral intake. What constitutes adequate which patients should receive it remain unclear.Fifteen acute care institutions prospectively collected data on all admitted with stroke. Sites were required to collect demographics 4 quality indicators. Optional included severity complications. We measured adherence for dysphagia, the type screen, development...
Recurrent lobar intracerebral hemorrhage is the hallmark of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. The factors that predispose patients to early recurrence are unknown. One candidate apolipoprotein E gene, since both epsilon2 and epsilon4 alleles appear be associated with severity angiopathy.We performed a prospective, longitudinal study consecutive elderly who survived hemorrhage. were followed for recurrent hemorrhagic stroke by interviews at six-month intervals reviews medical records computed...
Background and Purpose— Acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (LVO)—vertebral, basilar, carotid terminus, middle anterior cerebral arteries—likely portends a worse prognosis than unassociated with LVO. Because little prospective angiographic data have been reported on cohort of unselected patients transient attack, the clinical impact LVO has difficult quantify. Methods— The Screening Technology Outcome Project in Stroke Study is imaging-based study outcomes performed at 2...
The SSS-TOAST is an evidence-based classification algorithm for acute ischemic stroke designed to determine the most likely etiology in presence of multiple competing mechanisms. In this article, we present automated version SSS-TOAST, Causative Classification System (CCS), facilitate its utility multicenter settings.The CCS a web-based system that consists questionnaire-style scheme (http://ccs.martinos.org). Data entry provided via checkboxes indicating results clinical and diagnostic...
