Secondary Stroke Prevention Following Embolic Stroke of Unknown Source in the Absence of Documented Atrial Fibrillation: A Clinical Review

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Approximately one‐third of ischemic strokes are classified as cryptogenic strokes. The risk of stroke recurrence in these patients is significantly elevated with up to one‐third of patients with cryptogenic stroke experiencing a further stroke within 10 ...

Blood-Based Biomarkers to Search for Atrial Fibrillation in High-Risk Asymptomatic Individuals and Cryptogenic Stroke Patients

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Background Atrial fibrillation (AF) increases the risk of ischemic stroke in asymptomatic individuals and may be the underlying cause of many cryptogenic strokes. We aimed to test the usefulness of candidate blood-biomarkers related to AF pathophysiology

Аortic arch atheroma as a source of arterio-arterial embolism and ischemic stroke

Вестник медицинского института «Реавиз»: Реабилитация, врач и здоровье, 2023
Introduction. Currently, despite the introduction of modern diagnostic algorithms in 20-40 % of patients with ischemic stroke, it is not possible to establish its cause.

Clues to occult cancer in patients with ischemic stroke. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that hidden malignancy could be detected in patients with cryptogenic stroke without active cancer when they showed the distinctive characteristics of cancer-related stroke.

Abstract 1122‐000182: Histological Composition of Large Vessel Occlusion Stroke‐Causing Thrombi to Identify Etiologies: Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, 2021
Introduction: More than a third of large vessel occlusion ischemic strokes do not have clear etiology. Mechanical thrombectomy provides a method to retrieve stroke‐causing thrombi and potentially identifying the etiology.

Embolic strokes of undetermined source: prevalence and patient features in the ESUS Global Registry [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Recent evidence supports that most non-lacunar cryptogenic strokes are embolic. Accordingly, these strokes have been designated as embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS).

The Investigation of Left Atrial Structure and Stroke Etiology: The I‐LASER Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Left atrial (LA) function is important in stroke, but often poorly characterized. We evaluated the association of 2‐dimensional speckle tracking echocardiography LA variables with stroke subtype (cardioembolic stroke [CS] or cryptogenic stroke

Resolution of Occlusive Carotid Artery Thrombus Treated with Anticoagulation as Demonstrated on Duplex Ultrasonography. [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: While the majority of cerebral ischemic events due to carotid occlusive disease result from atherosclerotic plaque rupture, intraluminal carotid artery thrombus occasionally occurs in patients without preexisting carotid ...
