Sex-related differences in risk factors, type of treatment received and outcomes in patients with atrial fibrillation and acute stroke: Results from the RAF-study (Early Recurrence and Cerebral Bleeding in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke and Atrial Fibrillation) [PDF]
, 2016 Introduction: Atrial fibrillation is an independent risk factor of thromboembolism. Women with atrial fibrillation are at a higher overall risk for stroke compared to men with atrial fibrillation. The aim of this study was to evaluate for sex differences

Leukoaraiosis and intracerebral hematoma. [PDF]
Stroke, 1989 We studied 33 consecutive patients with computed tomographic findings of decreased density in the periventricular white matter (leukoaraiosis). Computed tomograms in five (aged 56-75 years) of the 33 demonstrated intracerebral hematoma. The hemorrhages were situated in the thalamic area in four and in the parietotemporal area in one patient. These five

Physiotherapy in leukoaraiosis
International journal of health sciences, 2022 The human brain is a complex structure having a plethora of functions. The human beings utilize their brain according to their need and requirement. Any injury or disease, whether caused due to degeneration or the mishap (Road traffic accident, fall from height) may lead to ischemia or necrosis of the neurons.
