The Role of Genetics in Stroke Risk and Outcome: A Review of Current Evidence
This study delineates the multiple pathways leading to stroke, encompassing genetic risk factors such as lipid/cholesterol metabolism, blood pressure regulation genes, and endothelial dysfunction. The report includes genetic pathways such as Val66Met polymorphism, prothrombin G20210A, interleukin‐6 and tumor necrosis factor gene variant, along with ...

Embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS) in patients with atrial septum defect and patent foramen ovale: difference and similarities [PDF]
Introduction Paradoxical embolism from right-to-left shunt through a patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a well-characterized cause of embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS).

Debatable issues in automated ECG reporting [PDF]
Although automated ECG analysis has been available for many years, there are some aspects which require to be re-assessed with respect to their value while newer techniques which are worthy of review are beginning to find their way into routine use.

Silent Atrial Fibrillation and Cryptogenic Strokes [PDF]
A new suspected cause of cryptic strokes is "silent atrial fibrillation." Pacemakers and other implanted devices allow continuous recording of cardiac rhythm for months or years. They have discovered that short periods of atrial fibrillation lasting minutes or hours are frequent and usually are asymptomatic. A meta-analysis of 50 studies involving more

Background: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) can occur simultaneously with a cryptogenic stroke (CS) linked to patent foramen ovale (PFO), given paradox thromboembolism as potential stroke cause.

Cardioverting acute atrial fibrillation and the risk of thromboembolism: not all patients are created equal [PDF]
Current guidelines support the well-established clinical practice that patients who present with atrial fibrillation (AF) of less than 48 hours duration should be considered for cardioversion, even in the absence of pre-existing anticoagulation. However,

Abstract Aim To assess the neurological and neurodevelopmental outcome of infants born at term with perinatal intracranial haemorrhage (pICH) and examine the clinical and neuroimaging associations. Method A prospective, consecutive, single‐center observational study of longitudinally followed children with pICH identified in the fetal or neonatal ...
