Doppler ultrasound assessment of minor atrial septal defects in patients with paradoxical embolism
Minor atrial septal defect (ASD) may be one of the pathways of paradoxical embolism in the brain. Few scientific papers have investigated the relationship between ASD (excluding patent foramen ovale) and the occurrence of ischemic stroke.

Early recurrent ischemic lesions in patients with cryptogenic stroke and patent foramen ovale: an observational study [PDF]
Background: Randomized controlled trials indicate that patent foramen ovate (PFO) closure reduces risk of stroke recurrence in patients with cryptogenic stroke and PFO. However, the optimal time point for PFO closure is unknown and depends on the risk of

Ischaemic strokes in patients with pulmonary arteriovenous malformations and hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia: associations with iron deficiency and platelets. [PDF]
BackgroundPulmonary first pass filtration of particles marginally exceeding ∼7 µm (the size of a red blood cell) is used routinely in diagnostics, and allows cellular aggregates forming or entering the circulation in the preceding cardiac cycle to lodge ...
