Global survey of the frequency of atrial fibrillation-associated stroke: embolic stroke of undetermined source global registry [PDF]
Background and Purpose—Atrial fibrillation (AF) is increasingly recognized as the single most important cause of disabling ischemic stroke in the elderly. We undertook an international survey to characterize the frequency of AF-associated stroke, methods

Atrial Cardiomyopathy and Cryptogenic Stroke
Background The frequency of cryptogenic stroke (CS) is about 30% of all cases of ischemic stroke (IS). Patients with CS represent a heterogeneous group of patients and require an individualized approach to antithrombotic therapy for secondary prevention.

Atrial high-rate episodes and stroke prevention. [PDF]
While the benefit of oral anticoagulants (OACs) for stroke prevention in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) is well established, it is not known whether oral anticoagulation is indicated in patients with atrial high-rate episodes (AHRE) recorded on a

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 ...

Associating cryptogenic ischemic stroke in the young with cardiovascular risk factor phenotypes
Acute Ischemic Stroke (AIS) in the young is increasing in prevalence and the largest subtype within this cohort is cryptogenic. To curb this trend, new ways of defining cryptogenic stroke and associated risk factors are needed.

Carotid stenosis and cryptogenic stroke
Cryptogenic stroke represents a type of ischemic stroke with an unknown origin, presenting a significant challenge in both stroke management and prevention. According to the Trial of Org 10,172 in Acute Stroke Treatment criteria, a stroke is categorized as being caused by large artery atherosclerosis only when there is >50% luminal narrowing of the ...

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

Evaluation of a clinical tool for early etiology identification in status epilepticus. [PDF]
OBJECTIVES: Because early etiologic identification is critical to select appropriate specific status epilepticus (SE) management, we aim to validate a clinical tool we developed that uses history and readily available investigations to guide prompt ...

This meta‐analysis of randomized controlled trials evaluated tenecteplase versus standard treatment in acute ischemic stroke. Tenecteplase enhanced recanalization and NIHSS scores but showed higher early symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. No notable differences were seen in mortality or functional independence, supporting cautious use in selected ...
