in the induction or aggravation of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: The association …

BACKGROUND: Specific clinical and demographic risk factors may be associated with
improving or worsening neurologic outcomes within a population of acute ischemic stroke …

Background and purpose Evidence of an association between sleep apnea (SA) and early
neurological deterioration (END) in acute phase ischemic stroke is scant. We investigated …

To evaluate the risk and presence of obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) in patients presenting
with acute ischemic stroke, and examine the correlation of OSA with age, sex, ischemic …
