Cryptogenic Pediatric Ischemic Stroke
Neurology, 2021Stroke is an underrecognized cause of morbidity and mortality in children. When the reason for stroke remains undetermined (cryptogenic), implementation of appropriate secondary prevention strategies is hindered, potentially leaving the child vulnerable to future ischemic events and related disability.

Hyperhomocysteinemia, obesity and cryptogenic stroke
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2011Background: The pathogenic role of hyperhomocysteinemia in cryptogenic stroke is not well established. We aimed to determine homocysteine levels in patients with cryptogenic stroke considering the possible variables that may act as confounders and analyze the influence of obesity on this association.

PFO Closure for Cryptogenic Stroke
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2015A patent foramen ovale (PFO) is a common finding in the general population and has been theorized to be a mechanism for ischemic stroke primarily due to a deep venous thrombus embolizing through the shunt into the arterial circulation. There has been much debate regarding the association between PFO and stroke, especially in the case of a cryptogenic ...

The Neuroradiology Journal, 2009
This paper reports the unique neuroimaging findings of a 37-year-old woman who attempted suicide by hanging. To our knowledge, this is the first reported case describing neuroimaging findings of unilateral lesions instead of the well-documented bilateral lesions after a hanging event.

Migraine and cryptogenic stroke
Neurology, 2015The connection of migraine and stroke was first recognized 40 years ago in a study of stroke in young women.1 The study centered on the relationship of stroke and oral contraceptives, but uncovered an association of migraine with both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke even in those not using the pill.

Cryptogenic Stroke: Diagnostic Workup and Management
Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2019Cryptogenic stroke describes a subset of ischemic stroke for which no cause can be found despite a structured investigation. There are a number of putative mechanisms of cryptogenic ischemic stroke including a covert structural cardiac lesion, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, hypercoagulable state or undiagnosed malignancy.

Cryptogenic Stroke and Patent Foramen Ovale
Continuum, 2011In patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale, options for stroke prevention include medical therapy (antiplatelet therapy or anticoagulation) and percutaneous device closure. In the only completed randomized controlled trial comparing medical therapy and percutaneous device closure, there was no difference in outcome between the two ...
