Background: Asymptomatic hemorrhagic transformation infarct (AHTI) is known as a complication of ischemic attack and maybe occurs in the entire stroke. However, the role of AHTI in the result of the treatment is still not clear, because it is based on the definition of an asymptomatic and not identifiable. The aim of this study was assessment and evaluation frequency of AHTI in acute ischemic s...

OBJECTIVES Previous prospective studies on ischemic stroke patients have shown conflicting results concerning the association between cholesterol level and patient outcome. We aimed to investigate the relation between cholesterol level and prior ischemic stroke. We hypothesized that acute ischemic stroke patients with increased cholesterol on admission more frequently had experienced prior isch...
