Aortogenic embolic stroke: a transesophageal echocardiographic approach.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE We studied the frequency and grade of atherosclerotic changes in the thoracic aorta and their significance as embologenic lesions in patients with stroke. METHODS Using transesophageal echocardiography, we evaluated complicated lesions in the thoracic aortas of 62 patients who met our clinical criteria for embolic stroke. A complicated lesion was defined as a raised les...

using the same treatment comparisons and the same end points as before. With the additional 5,000 or so patients from these two trials, both of which demonstrated a significant treatment effect, the resulting meta-analyses yield more significant results in favor of treatment. Of the 12 analyses rerun on the end points of total strokes, total deaths, and nonfatal strokes or death, 10 are now sig...
