Atrial Cardiopathy and Sympatho-Vagal Imbalance in Cryptogenic Stroke: Pathogenic Mechanisms and Effects on Electrocardiographic Markers

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2018
Recently, atrial cardiopathy has emerged as possible pathogenic mechanism in cryptogenic stroke and many electrocardiographic (ECG) markers have been proposed in order to detect an altered atrial substrate at an early stage. The autonomic nervous system (

Effects of cerebral small vessel disease on the outcomes in cryptogenic stroke with active cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Cerebral small vessel diseases (cSVDs) affect the prognosis of various types of ischemic stroke. Therefore, we evaluated the association between cSVD and the prognosis of cryptogenic stroke patients with active cancer. We enrolled patients diagnosed with

Atrial high-rate episodes and stroke prevention. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
While the benefit of oral anticoagulants (OACs) for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is well established, it is not known whether oral anticoagulation is indicated in patients with atrial high-rate episodes (AHRE) recorded on a

Quality of life over time after new onset refractory status epilepticus

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective This study aims to better characterize the long‐term neurological quality of life (QOL) outcomes (using the Neuro‐QOL scale) in survivors of new onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE), including its subtype febrile infection‐related epilepsy syndrome (FIRES), and provide guidance for psychological and social support strategies ...

Migraine and patent foramen ovale: correlation, coexistence, dependence. A narrative review

open access: yesHeadache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, EarlyView.
Plain Language Summary This review looked at what scientists know about the connection between migraine and a small heart opening called a patent foramen ovale (PFO). It showed that people with migraine, especially with aura, often have PFO, but it is not certain whether closing this heart opening helps prevent strokes in these patients.

Impairment of left atrial function and cryptogenic stroke: Potential insights in the pathophysiology of stroke in the young

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2020
Background: Stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality with a significant percentage classified as cryptogenic. Left atrial (LA) remodelling, a substrate for atrial fibrillation (AF) and stroke development, may play a role in ...

Treatment of Cryptogenic Stroke Patients with Atrial Fibrillation Detected by Insertable Cardiac Monitors Reduces Recurrent Stroke Risk to Background Levels

open access: yesJournal of Innovations in Cardiac Rhythm Management, 2021
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a known risk factor of ischemic stroke with a reported fivefold increase in incidence. However, it is not well established whether treatment with oral anticoagulation (OAC) in cryptogenic stroke patients with AF, detected by ...

Algorithm Improvements in an Insertable Cardiac Monitor Reduce False Positives and Episode Review Burden

open access: yesPacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, Volume 48, Issue 12, Page 1337-1343, December 2025.
Improvements to Insertable Cardiac Monitor (ICM) algorithms and nocturnal programming settings reduce the occurrence of false positives and non‐actionable arrhythmia detections. ABSTRACT Introduction The use of insertable cardiac monitors (ICM) for arrhythmia monitoring continues to grow steadily. However, ICM performance remains less than perfect, and

Global survey of the frequency of atrial fibrillation-associated stroke: embolic stroke of undetermined source global registry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background and Purpose—Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly recognized as the single most important cause of disabling ischemic stroke in the elderly. We undertook an international survey to characterize the frequency of AF-associated stroke, methods
