Journal ArticleDOI
Familial History of Stroke Is Associated with Acute Coronary Syndromes in Women
Amitava Banerjee,Chris C. Lim,Louise E. Silver,Sarah J.V. Welch,Adrian P. Banning,Peter M. Rothwell +5 more
TL;DR: FH of stroke is as common in ACS patients as in stroke/transient ischemic attack patients and sex- of-parent/sex-of-proband interactions are similar, but there was no association between parental history of stroke and disease localization or presence of multivessel disease on coronary angiography.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transient ischaemic attack: clinical relevance, risk prediction and urgency of secondary prevention.
TL;DR: The risk of stroke after TIA is considerable, but recent advances have shown that this risk can be predicted for individuals and substantially reduced by appropriate secondary prevention measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carotid endarterectomy in the UK: acceptable risks but unacceptable delays.
D Dellagrammaticas,Stephanie C. Lewis,Bridget Colam,Peter M. Rothwell,Charles Warlow,Mike Gough +5 more
TL;DR: An interim analysis of 30-day postoperative outcome data from the first 1,001 UK patients randomised in the GALA Trial (multicentre randomised trial of general versus local anaesthesia for CEA) took place and the time from last symptomatic event to surgery was recorded.
Journal ArticleDOI
The effect of angiographic technique and image quality on the reproducibility of measurement of carotid stenosis and assessment of plaque surface morphology
TL;DR: It is concluded that the reproducibility of measurement of carotid stenosis and the assessment of plaque surface morphology vary depending on the type of angiography and the quality of visualization of the stenosis, which should be taken into account when validating non-invasive methods of imaging theCarotid bifurcation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Prevention and treatment of stroke in patients with chronic kidney disease: an overview of evidence and current guidelines.
TL;DR: There is a lack of or conflicting evidence that those with renal disease, particularly when advanced or older, consistently derive benefit from currently available preventive and therapeutic interventions for stroke in the general population.
