Objective Wake-up stroke (WUS) is an ischemic stroke occurring during nocturnal sleep with
neurological deficits observed upon awakening. Our study aimed to investigate the …

Objectives The onset of ischemic stroke symptoms has been established to have a diurnal
variation, with a sizeable proportion (8–28%) occurring during sleep. Obstructive sleep …

Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) has been considered as one of the risk factors for ischemic
stroke, but the impact of OSA on wake-up stroke (WUS) is not well studied. We aimed to …

Background: Wake-up stroke (WUS) is a certain type of ischemic stroke in which a patient
wakes up with a new neurological deficit due to cerebral ischemia. Sleep-disordered …

Background: Wake-up stroke (WUS) are strokes that are noted upon awakening in patients
previously going to bed in a normal state of health. The role of sleep abnormalities in WUS is …

Study Objectives: Sleep disordered breathing (SDB) is a frequent comorbidity in stroke
patients. SDB is one of the independent risk factors for ischemic stroke. Conversely, stroke …

Background: Wake-up stroke (WUS) accounts for a quarter of all ischemic strokes. Its
conspicuous occurrence during sleep suggests that WUS may be associated with …

Background: Management of wake-up stroke (WUS) is always a challenge as no clear time
of onset could be ascertained, and how to choose an appropriate therapy remains unclear …

Abstract Background and Aims Presence of sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) and
especially obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a known risk factor for ischemic stroke …

Background and purpose Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a modifiable risk factor for
stroke, but there are limited data on which stroke subtypes are associated with OSA. The aim …
