Incidence and prognosis of transient neurological attacks.
CONTEXT Transient neurological attacks (TNAs) are attacks with temporary (<24 hours) neurological symptoms. These symptoms can be focal, nonfocal, or a mixture of both. The prognostic significance of TNAs with focal symptoms (better known as transient ischemic attacks [TIAs]) is well understood. Conversely, hardly anything is known about the prognostic significance of TNAs with nonfocal or mixe...
متن کاملSevere anemia associated with transient neurological deficits.
In two patients with carotid artery stenosis and anemia, neurological deficits appeared whenever the hemoglobin level fell below a critical level of 5-6 g/dl and resolved with correction of the anemia. Profound anemia should be considered as a cause of focal neurological deficit, especially if there is evidence of cerebral atherosclerosis.
متن کاملStroke and transient ischaemic attacks.
accounts for about 5% ofNHS hospital costs. Stroke is the commonest cause of severe physical disability. About 100 000 people suffer a first stroke each year in England and Wales. It is important to emphasise that around 20-25% of all strokes affects people under 65 years of age. The annual incidence of stroke is two per 1000.' About 10% of all patients suffer a recurrent stroke within one year...
متن کاملManagement of transient ischaemic attacks and stroke.
The management of stroke and transient ischaemic attacks (TIAs) has changed greatly in the last two decades. The importance of good blood pressure control is the hallmark of stroke prevention. Large multicentre trials have proven beyond doubt the value of aspirin in TIAs, warfarin in patients with atrial fibrillation and embolic cerebrovascular symptoms, and carotid endarterectomy in patients w...
متن کاملEffects of mTOR on Neurological Deficits after Transient Global Ischemia
Mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine protein kinase and activation of its signal pathway plays an important role in regulating protein growth and synthesis as well as cell proliferation and survival. In the present study, we examined the contribution of mTOR and its downstream products to brain injuries and neurological deficiencies after cardiac arrest (CA) induced-transi...
