DOI: 10.1007/s00228-020-02907-y
Abstract: Certain drugs are known to be associated with increased risk of cerebrovascular disease by having a prothrombotic effect, causing vasculopathy, altering blood pressure or the coagulation cascade [1]; these phenomena are a direct manifestation of… read more here.

Cognitive testing following transient ischaemic attack: A systematic review of clinical assessment tools
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Cogent Psychology"
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: 10.1111/ene.13191
Abstract: Small vessel disease (SVD) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are two common causes of cognitive impairment and dementia, traditionally considered as distinct processes. The relationship between radiological features suggestive of AD and SVD was explored, and… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ene.14750
Abstract: The global COVID‐19 pandemic led many stroke centres worldwide to shift from in‐person to telemedicine consultations to assess patients with transient ischaemic attacks (TIAs). We aimed to investigate the impact of telemedicine during the COVID‐19… read more here.

DOI: 10.1136/bmjopen-2017-019919
Abstract: Objectives Dysfunction after transient ischaemic attack (TIA) and minor stroke is often underestimated by clinical measures. Patient-reported outcome measures used in value-based healthcare may help in detecting these problems. The Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System… 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
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "BMJ Open"
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.
