Clinical and Radiographic Risk Factors for Operative Stroke and Death in the European Carotid Surgery Trial

TL;DR: The operative risk of stroke and death in the ECST was comparable with other prospective studies and trials in which patients were assessed postoperatively by both a physician and a surgeon.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of 30-Day Outcomes Following Staged Carotid Artery Stenting and Coronary Bypass

TL;DR: It remains questionable whether the observed 9% risks can be justified in any asymptomatic patient with unilateral carotid disease, but it is suggested that staged CAS plus CABG is an attractive and less invasive alternative to CEAPlusCABG.
Journal ArticleDOI

Direct assessment of completeness of ascertainment in a stroke incidence study.

TL;DR: Direct assessment of ascertainment suggests that the supplementary methods used in recent studies can lead to near-complete ascertainment in population-based stroke incidence study (Oxford Vascular Study).
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The ACST-2 trial as discussed by the authors compared carotid artery stenting (CAS) versus CEA among asymptomatic patients with severe stenosis thought to require intervention, interpreted with all other relevant trials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Age-specific incidence, risk factors and outcome of acute abdominal aortic aneurysms in a defined population.

TL;DR: Current population‐based data on age‐specific incidence and outcome from acute abdominal aortic aneurysm events are needed to understand the impact of risk factor modification and demographic change, and to inform AAA screening policy.
