The benefit of beta-blockers after myocardial infarction in patients with a preserved left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is unclear. We conducted a meta-analysis at the individual-patient level ...

Compared with aspirin, apixaban lowers incidence of nonlacunar covert infarcts in patients with cryptogenic stroke and atrial cardiopathy. Among patients with cryptogenic stroke and atrial cardiopathy ...

Current guideline recommendations for the use of beta-blockers after myocardial infarction without reduced ejection fraction are based on trials conducted before routine reperfusion, invasive care, ...

1. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) imaging in minor ischemic stroke patients reclassifies some cryptogenic stroke patients to small vessel occlusions. 2. Patients with MRI-defined cryptogenic embolic ...

There is limited evidence about the progression of cognitive performance during the post-stroke stage. Objective: To assess the evolution of cognitive performance in stroke patients without vascular ...

About 25% of patients with acute ischemic stroke have lacunar infarct on follow‐up imaging. In this secondary analysis from the AcT (Alteplase Compared With Tenecteplase) trial, we assessed if there ...

Myocardial ischemia is a drop in blood flow to the heart. Myocardial infarction, or heart attack, occurs when death or damage occurs in the muscle tissue of the heart due to low blood supply. The ...
