Embolic stroke of undetermined source: a retrospective analysis from an Italian Stroke Unit

Italian Journal of Medicine, 2016
The new clinical construct of embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) suggests that many cryptogenic strokes are related to minor-risk covert embolic cardiac sources or to embolus from non-occlusive plaques in the aortic arch or in the cerebral ...

Characteristics of Patent Foramen Ovale Associated with Cryptogenic Stroke: A Biplane Transesophageal Echocardiography Study

, 1994
Patent foramen ovale is associated with ischemic stroke in patients without a clearly identifiable etiology for stroke (cryptogenic stroke). Paradoxical embolization is thought to be a potential mechanism.

Cryptogenic Stroke in Relation to Genetic Variation in Clotting Factors and Other Genetic Polymorphisms Among Young Men and Women * Editorial Comment

, 2002
The purpose of the present study was to compare the prevalences of genetic polymorphisms in persons with cryptogenic stroke with those among stroke patients with evidence of large-artery occlusive disease or an unequivocal cardioembolic source ...

The AtRial Cardiopathy and Antithrombotic Drugs In prevention After cryptogenic stroke randomized trial: Rationale and methods

, 2019
Recent data suggest that a thrombogenic atrial substrate can cause stroke in the absence of atrial fibrillation. Such an atrial cardiopathy may explain some proportion of cryptogenic strokes.

Family history of stroke and cardiovascular diseases in early-onset cryptogenic ischaemic stroke

BACKGROUND: Familial aggregation of stroke is well-documented, yet few studies have examined associations between stroke subtypes-particularly early-onset cryptogenic ischaemic stroke (eCIS)-and broader family history (FH) of cardiovascular disease. Such

WATCH AFib: smartwatches for detection of atrial fibrillation in secondary prevention of cryptogenic stroke—protocol for a prospective, intraindividual-controlled, multicentre clinical study

Frontiers in Neurology
RationaleDetection of atrial fibrillation (AFib) and subsequent anticoagulation therapy reduce the risk of recurrent stroke, while prolonged rhythm monitoring significantly increases AFib detection.
