Impaired glucose tolerance increases stroke risk in nondiabetic patients with transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Impaired glucose tolerance, an intermediate metabolic state between normal glucose and diabetes characterized by nonfasting glucose levels between 7.8 to 11.0 mmol/L, is associated with an increased stroke risk in patients with coronary heart disease. Whether impaired glucose tolerance increases the risk of stroke in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor ...
متن کاملOccurrence and predictors of persistent impaired glucose tolerance after acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack.
BACKGROUND Impaired glucose tolerance is often present in patients with a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or ischemic stroke and doubles the risk of recurrent stroke. This impaired glucose tolerance can be transient, reflecting an acute stress response, or persistent, representing undiagnosed impaired glucose metabolism possibly requiring treatment. We aimed to assess the occurrence of persiste...
متن کاملOriginal Contributions Silent Stroke in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack or Minor Ischemic Stroke
Background and Purpose: We studied silent stroke (i.e., infarcts on computed tomographic scan not related to later symptoms) in patients after transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke. Methods: Ours is a cross-sectional study of 2,329 patients who were randomized in a secondary prevention trial after transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke and had no residual deficit after ...
متن کاملClopidogrel with aspirin in minor stroke or transient ischemic attack.
To the Editor: Wang et al. (July 4 issue)1 report the results of the Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events (CHANCE) trial, which showed that in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke who can be treated within 24 hours after the onset of symptoms, the combination of clopidogrel and aspirin was superior to aspirin alone for reducin...
متن کاملPredictors of Hospitalization in Patients With Transient Ischemic Attack or Minor Ischemic Stroke.
BACKGROUND Transient ischemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke are associated with a substantial risk of subsequent stroke; however, there is uncertainty about whether such patients require admission to hospital for their initial management. We used data from a clinical stroke registry to determine the frequency and predictors of hospitalization for TIA or minor stroke across the province of Ontar...
