Cryptogenic Stroke and Underlying Atrial Fibrillation

New England Journal of Medicine, 2014
Current guidelines recommend at least 24 hours of electrocardiographic (ECG) monitoring after an ischemic stroke to rule out atrial fibrillation. However, the most effective duration and type of monitoring have not been established, and the cause of ischemic stroke remains uncertain despite a complete diagnostic evaluation in 20 to 40% of cases ...

De novo pathogenic CSF1R variant implicates microglial dysfunction in pathogenesis of febrile infection‐related epilepsy syndrome

Epilepsia, Volume 66, Issue 9, Page e211-e218, September 2025.
Abstract Febrile infection‐related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES) is a rare presentation of refractory status epilepticus following a febrile illness with resulting refractory epilepsy. Evidence supports the presence of immune dysregulation in patients with FIRES, but a monogenic basis for FIRES has not been identified in most cases.

Exploring Optimal Cardiac Electronic Implantable Devices Programming: Reducing Non‐Actionable Alerts and Assessing Clinical Outcomes

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, Volume 36, Issue 9, Page 2226-2232, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Background The rapid evolution of cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) has increased remote transmission data, leading to excessive non‐actionable alerts (NAA) and alert fatigue. Objective Optimize alert parameters to minimize NAA and evaluate the impact on clinical outcomes.

Secondary stroke prevention: patent foramen ovale, aortic plaque, and carotid stenosis [PDF]

, 2017
Stroke is the most debilitating cardiovascular event. It has a variety of causes that may be present simultaneously. In young or otherwise healthy people, the search for a patent foramen ovale (PFO) has become standard.

Platypnea‐Orthodeoxia Syndrome Post‐Pneumonectomy: A Case of Right‐To‐Left Shunting and Successful PFO Closure

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Platypnea‐orthodeoxia syndrome is a rare disorder characterized by dyspnea (platypnea) and arterial desaturation (orthodeoxia) in the upright position, with symptom relief upon lying down. This syndrome is commonly associated with cardiac anomalies, particularly patent foramen ovale (PFO), where increased right atrial pressure facilitates ...

CRYPTOGENIC STROKE? LOOK FOR THROMBOPHILIA

PRECARPATHIAN BULLETIN OF THE SHEVCHENKO SCIENTIFIC SOCIETY Pulse, 2019
About 25% of ischemic strokes remain without an established cause. The article describes the characterization of some hereditary and acquired thrombophilias, which play a significant role in genesis of stroke. One of the ways to solve the problem of etiological diagnosis of thrombotic states is to identify the markers of hereditary or acquired ...

Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in cryptogenic stroke

Therapeutics and Clinical Risk Management, 2011
Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (PAF) is perhaps the most underdiagnosed mechanism of apparent cryptogenic stroke (CS). Various studies have shown that increasing the duration of monitoring can increase the diagnosis of PAF in CS.We compared demographic and risk factors for ischemic stroke across different TOAST (Trial of ORG 10172 in Acute Stroke ...

Smoking affects gene expression in blood of patients with ischemic stroke. [PDF]

, 2019
ObjectiveThough cigarette smoking (CS) is a well-known risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS), there is no data on how CS affects the blood transcriptome in IS patients.MethodsWe recruited IS-current smokers (IS-SM), IS-never smokers (IS-NSM), control ...
