Sex differences in cryptogenic stroke with patent foramen ovale

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND: Sex differences in patients with patent foramen ovale (PFO) and cryptogenic stroke have not been systematically analyzed. We aimed to determine sex influences on demographics, vascular risk factors, clinical manifestations, stroke location ...

Diagnosis, prognosis, and management of cryptogenic stroke [version 1; referees: 3 approved]

open access: yesF1000Research, 2016
Despite many advances in our understanding of ischemic stroke, cryptogenic strokes (those that do not have a determined etiology) remain a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge.

ECG Smart Monitoring versus Implantable Loop Recorders for Atrial Fibrillation Detection after Cryptogenic Stroke—An Overview for Decision Making

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Up to 20% of patients with ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack have a prior history of known atrial fibrillation (AF). Additionally, unknown AF can be detected by different monitoring strategies in up to 23% of patients with cryptogenic or non ...

New onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) versus refractory status epilepticus not meeting NORSE criteria: A comparative clinical and electroencephalography‐based study

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective New onset refractory status epilepticus (NORSE) is a rare, severe presentation of refractory status epilepticus (RSE), with approximately half of cases cryptogenic NORSE (c‐NORSE). We compared electroencephalographic (EEG) findings alongside clinical features between NORSE and RSE not meeting NORSE criteria to better understand ...

Photoplethysmography-based atrial fibrillation detection in patients after crytpogenic stroke

open access: yesFrontiers in Stroke
IntroductionUndiagnosed atrial fibrillation (AF) is a potential underlying cause of cryptogenic stroke. Prolonged screening for AF using a photoplethysmography (PPG) smartwatch might offer a solution for detecting AF in patients with cryptogenic stroke ...

Statin use and risk of remote seizure after first new onset status epilepticus

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Preclinical evidence supports the role of statins as antiepileptogenic agents. In this study, we investigated the risk of remote unprovoked seizures (RS) according to the use of statin therapy in a cohort of first‐ever status epilepticus (SE) survivors. Methods Retrospective analysis was made of adult patients (age ≥ 14 years) with a

Frontiers in EEG as a tool for the management of pediatric epilepsy: Past, present, and future

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Electroencephalography (EEG) has evolved into an indispensable tool in pediatric epilepsy, fundamentally transforming the diagnosis, classification, and management of this condition. This review chronicles the historical journey of EEG from its groundbreaking inception to its current pivotal role in delineating distinct pediatric epilepsy ...
