Abstract Background Recurrent TIAs are thought to signal a high stroke risk. The aim of this
study is to examine if repeated ischemic events increase the risk of recurrent ipsilateral …

Objectives The risk of recurrent stroke in patients with symptomatic carotid artery stenosis is
highest in the first weeks after a transient ischemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke and can be …

Background and Purpose—The annual risk of ischemic stroke distal to≥ 50% asymptomatic
carotid stenoses was≈ 2% to 3% in early cohort studies and subsequent randomized trials …

Objective Carotid artery stenosis may present without the classical symptoms of transient
ischaemic attack or stroke but the rates of stroke for these presentations is unknown. The …

Context The annual risk of ischemic stroke in patients with asymptomatic carotid artery
stenosis is about 2% during the short-term (2-3 years), but the long-term risks of stroke and …

Background and Purpose—We aimed to identify and determine the clinical relevance of
parameters predictive of stroke recurrence and vessel occlusion before carotid …

Objective The objective of this study was to evaluate the risk of recurrent ischaemic stroke in
patients with ultrasound assessed symptomatic mild carotid artery stenosis (20–49 …

Background—The main goal of follow-up after carotid endarterectomy is to prevent new
strokes caused by recurrent stenosis. To determine the most cost-effective follow-up …

Objectives To determine the association between progression of internal carotid artery
stenosis and subsequent ipsilateral cerebral ischemic events (AF, TIA or stroke) in the …

Recent evidence indicates that the risk of stroke symptoms in non-operated medically
managed patients with asymptomatic severe carotid stenosis has fallen significantly over the …
