The trial screened all patients with cryptogenic stroke, regardless of infarct topography. Acute brain infarction in multiple arterial territories could more strongly suggest a central embolic source.
Introduction: Early prediction of final infarct volume is a vital component of clinical recovery. Ischemic infarct volume is an independent predictor of stroke prognosis with larger volumes ...
An alternative strategy is for patients at high risk for ischemic stroke to be taking medications at the time of the event that will reduce infarct size. A recent trial aimed to study whether the ...
The Food and Drug Administration has approved Ozempic ® (semaglutide) to reduce the risk of sustained estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) decline, end-stage kidney disease, and cardiovascular ...
