Etiology of Stroke

Stroke, 1997
The diagnosis of arterial stroke differentiates ischemia from hemorrhage. The former may be due to arterial occlusion or stenosis, the latter to leakage or rupture of an artery. Computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have shown that this basic differentiation cannot be reliably made from the history and clinical examination alone.

ETIOLOGY OF THE TRANSIENT CEREBRAL STROKE

Journal of the American Medical Association, 1957
• Hemiplegia, monoplegia, hemianesthesia, aphasia, and visual disturbances are all manifestations of sudden, transient focal cerebral vascular disturbances. Rhesus monkeys, whose pial vessels are similar to those of man, were studied to clarify the etiology of these transient cerebral strokes.

Phospholipase A2 and Ischemic Stroke Etiology

The Neurologist, 2021
Background: Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2), which is involved in the inflammatory atherosclerotic process, has emerged as an independent risk factor for atheromatous vascular events. Its impact on coronary disease has already been demonstrated, however, its influence in cerebrovascular etiology is still ...

The Role of Drugs in the Etiology of Stroke

Clinical Neuropharmacology, 1992
Drugs of many classes have been implicated in hemorrhagic and ischemic stroke. Alcohol in moderation may have a protective effect although in greater doses may predispose to stroke. Drugs such as cocaine, amphetamines and heroin have been associated with stroke by a number of mechanisms.

Etiology of stroke in Broca's aphasia

Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases, 1991
We reviewed clinical and diagnostic data from 36 patients with Broca's aphasia due to stroke who were evaluated at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics between 1982 and 1989. The group consisted of 20 women and 16 men, aged 28-80 (median, 63.5; mean, 57.5).

Intimai fibroplasia: An unusual etiology of stroke

Annals of Vascular Surgery, 1989
Individuals with arterial intimal fibroplasia represent a rare subset of patients with proliferative disorders of the arterial wall. This case describes the successful antemortem management of intimal fibroplasia of the internal carotid artery which had caused ipsilateral cerebral infarction.

Etiology of Stroke Subtypes

Nursing Clinics of North America, 1991
The definitions and terms currently used to categorize and describe various stroke syndromes clearly reflect a change from years past when a stroke diagnosis was based on little more than clinical presentation. With the advent of sophisticated diagnostic technology and the development of precise diagnostic algorithms, diagnoses may be made more ...

Etiology of stroke in children

Seminars in Pediatric Neurology, 2000
Although the risk factors for stroke in children are numerous and differ greatly from the causes of stroke in adults, a thorough diagnostic evaluation can identify one or more risk factors in most patients. Cardiac disorders and hemoglobinopathy are the most common causes of ischemic infarction, whereas various congenital anomalies of the blood vessels

Migraine as an Etiology of Stroke in Young Adults

Headache: The Journal of Head and Face Pain, 1984
SYNOPSIS A retrospective study of strokes due to ischemic cerebrovascular disease in young adults was undertaken, and the incidence of migraine as an etiologic factor was studied. Within the last five years, fifteen patients between the ages of twenty and forty were admitted to the USAF Medical Center Wright‐Patterson with the ...
