Will Smartphone Applications Replace the Insertable Cardiac Monitor in the Detection of Atrial Fibrillation? The First Comparison in a Case Report of a Cryptogenic Stroke Patient

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Background and CaseThis case report exemplifies the clinical application of non-invasive photoplethysmography (PPG)-based rhythm monitoring in the awakening mobile health (mHealth) era to detect symptomatic and asymptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation

The management of cryptogenic stroke in pregnancy [PDF]

Obstetric Medicine, 2011
Cerebrovascular accidents (CVAs) during pregnancy are uncommon but can have devastating consequences. The causes of CVA in both the pregnant and the non-pregnant state are diverse and require thorough investigation. Recent studies have indicated that embolic stroke in young adults may be caused by paradoxical emboli through a patent foramen ovale (PFO)

Cryptogenic Stroke and Valvular Strands

European Journal of Case Reports in Internal Medicine, 2020
Background: Ischaemic stroke can be classified according to its aetiology. In cryptogenic stroke, Lambl’s excrescences should be considered since they can only be detected through transesophageal echocardiography (TEE), which is not routinely performed.

Ipsilateral internal carotid artery web and acute ischemic stroke: A cohort study, systematic review and meta-analysis.

PLoS ONE, 2021
IntroductionThe carotid web is a compelling potential mechanism of embolic ischemic stroke. In this study, we aim to determine the prevalence of ipsilateral carotid web in a cohort of ischemic stroke patients and to perform a systematic review and meta ...

Atrial septal aneurysm and cryptogenic stroke: an arrhythmic approach to pathophysiology

Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2023
The connection between cryptogenic stroke and atrial septal aneurysm (ASA) with or without patent foramen ovale (PFO) has been a debated topic for decades with regard to pathophysiological mechanisms and clinical consequences.

Left Atrial Dynamics Is Altered in Young Adults With Cryptogenic Ischemic Stroke: A Case‐Control Study Utilizing Advanced Echocardiography

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020
Background Ischemic stroke in young individuals often remains cryptogenic. Some of these strokes likely originate from the heart, and atrial fibrosis might be one of the etiological mechanisms.

Patent foramen ovale in young stroke patients: diagnostic challenge and a new approach to the secondary prevention (a case report and review of literature)

Neurologijos seminarai, 2018
Patent foramen ovale (PFO) occurs in about 25% of healthy adults, however, it is significantly more common among patients with cryptogenic stroke. Although PFO might be a direct cause of ischemia, it is often an accidental finding in stroke patients. In

Diagnostic Yield of TEE in Patients with Cryptogenic Stroke and TIA with Normal TTE: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Neurology International, 2021
Introduction: The role of transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) in cryptogenic stroke and transient ischemic attack (TIA) with normal transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) remains controversial in the absence of definite guidelines. We aimed to perform a

Cryptogenic stroke, embolic stroke of unknown source, and the left atrial septal pouch: the role of transesophageal echocardiography

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases
Background: Cryptogenic stroke accounts for a substantial proportion of ischemic strokes and often poses a diagnostic challenge due to the limitations of the TOAST classification in identifying atypical mechanisms.

IV Thrombolysis Facilitates Interventional Reperfusion in Non‐Cardioembolic but Not Cardioembolic Stroke

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before thrombectomy for ischemic stroke may alter clot structure and procedural performance. We investigated how IVT relates to thrombectomy metrics across stroke etiologies. Methods We performed a time‐to‐event analysis of consecutive patients with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (acLVO ...
