TL;DR: Cognitive impairment was associated with recurrence of ischemic stroke in high risk patients during adequate medical therapy including antiplatelet therapy, however, the other vascular events were not.

TL;DR: The presence of coronary artery disease was protective against the presence of UIAs, and the risk factors for UIAs differ by their location, compared with the control.

TL;DR: Although baseline characteristics and recanalisation rate after IAT up to 24 h after stroke onset were similar between acute ischaemic stroke patients with active cancer and without any cancer, stroke-related death and short-term outcome were significantly poorer in patients withactive cancer than the controls.

TL;DR: The proposed concept of cardiac vulnerability to cerebrogenic stress can be a practical interpretation of troponin elevation and electrocardiography abnormalities in stroke patients.

TL;DR: Troponin elevation in the acute stage of ischemic stroke was associated with long-term mortality, mainly due to increased stroke- and cancer-related death in the first year and cardiacrelatedDeath in the later period.
