Angiography and Transient Ischemic Attacks
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1978To the Editor.— In a recent editorial (239:228, 1978) Dalessio recognized that "platelet emboli and fibrinoplatelet mixed clots are the source of most TIAs [transient ischemic attacks], particularly of repeated episodes." These emboli originate from ulcerated atherosclerotic plaques, and it is well known that the presence of ulceration within an ...

Several options exist for treating transient ischemic attacks (TIAs), although none can eliminate the risk of cerebral infarction. For carotid TIA, carotid endarterectomy is the preferred therapy in patients with an angiographically demonstrated sclerotic lesion, whereas extracranial-intracranial bypass may be beneficial in patients with carotid artery

An Update on Transient Ischemic Attacks
Journal of Neuroscience Nursing, 2005Each year in the United States 200,000-500,000 people have a transient ischemic attack (TIA). These episodes of brief neurologic deficits were thought to be fairly benign, but this view is changing. In 2002, a new definition for TIA was proposed, and a more intensive diagnostic workup recommended to look for a probable cause of the transient neurologic

Epidemiology of Transient Ischemic Attack
2013Few epidemiologic data are available regarding the prevalence and incidence of transient ischemic attack (TIA). Here, the incidence of TIA and that of subsequent stroke events were reviewed. The incidences of TIA in Europe were 0.52-2.37 and 0.05-1.14 in men and women aged 55-64, 0.94-3.39 and 0.71-1.47 in those aged 65-74, and 3.04-7.20 and 2.18-6.06 ...

Transient ischemic attacks (TIAs) involve the sudden and brief loss of cerebral or ocular function, due to ischemic causes, with complete recovery at the moment of examination. TIAs, too often trivialized, require specialized emergency management. The risk of cerebral infarction within 7 days after TIA can reach 35%.
