DOI: 10.1080/23311908.2023.2196005
Abstract: Abstract Cognitive deficits are prevalent after transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and result in loss of function, poorer quality of life and increased risks of dependency and mortality. This systematic review aimed to synthesise the available… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/cpf.12456
Abstract: Carotid endarterectomy of symptomatic internal carotid artery stenosis in patients with stroke or transient ischaemic attack reduces the risk of recurrent stroke, particularly if performed within 2 weeks from the first event. We evaluated the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2019-031774
Abstract: Objective The diagnosis of transient ischaemic attack (TIA) based on symptoms and signs can be challenging and would greatly benefit from a rapid serum biomarker of brain ischaemia. We aimed to quantify the added diagnostic… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2020-041408
Abstract: Objectives Telephone triage of patients suspected of transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or stroke is challenging. Both TIA and stroke more likely occur during daytime, with a peak in the morning hours. Thus, the time of… read more here.

Study protocol for a pilot randomised controlled trial evaluating the feasibility and effectiveness of non-pharmacological interventions to recover functionality after a transient ischaemic attack or a minor stroke: the ‘Back to Normal’ trial

DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2022-069593
Abstract: Introduction Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke are frequently assumed as temporary or non-disabling events. However, evidence suggests that these patients can experience relevant impairment and functional disability. Therefore, the present study aims to… read more here.

Abstract: INTRODUCTION Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) has classically been defined as an episode of self-limited focal neurological deficit lasting up to 24 hours, with no neuroimaging evidence of established acute ischaemic injury. However, the definition of… read more here.
