BACKGROUND
The risk of intracerebral hemorrhage in systemic thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke after acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) pretreatment or with subsequent heparin is controversially discussed.
METHODS
300 consecutive stroke patients were treated with recombinant tissue-type plasminogen
Elevated concentrations of platelet-derived microvesicles are found in cerebrovascular diseases. The impact of acetylsalicylic acid on these microvesicles remains inconsistent, despite its well-established effect on platelet aggregation. High residual platelet aggregation is defined as The aim of this study was to observe whether acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) had different effects in both sexes. Out of the ischemic stroke patients who were admitted to the National Taiwan University Hospital (NTUH), those who had not taken ASA or ASA-like drugs for more than 2 weeks were selected for
BACKGROUND
Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) due to its antiplatelet action is used in ischemic stroke therapy. The platelet response to ASA shows an interindividual variation. Decreased platelet sensitivity to ASA is termed as resistance to ASA.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the study was to assess the prevalence
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treatment guidelines include various recommendations for treatment once the patient arrives at the hospital. Prehospital care recommendations, however, are limited to expeditious transport to a qualified hospital and supportive care. The literature has insufficiently
In 12 of 76 stroke patients complicated by the syndrome of inappropriate secretion of antidiuretic hormone (SIADH), a significant increase in urinary prostaglandin E (PGE) (p less than 0.005), and a significant positive relationship between the plasma arginine vasopressin (AVR) level and urinary PGE
BACKGROUND
Approximately 25% of strokes are recurrent. Antiplatelet therapy is indicated for the prevention of recurrent stroke in patients with a history of noncardioembolic minor stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA). Although clinicians may choose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) as first-line
In 1988, an optimal antiplatelet regimen for secondary stroke prevention remained to be defined. We undertook a randomised, placebo-controlled, double-blind trial to investigate the safely and efficacy of low-dose acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), modified-release dipyridamole, and the two agents in
BACKGROUND
The use of antithrombotic drugs (anticoagulants and antiplatelet drugs) has been reported to increase the risk of hemorrhagic stroke (HS) relative to no treatment. This study was performed to characterize the incidence and predictors of HS in users of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) for the
BACKGROUND
Standard aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid [ASA])-dipyridamole therapy twice daily is associated with high rates of discontinuation in large part because of headache and gastrointestinal side effects. Attempts to address dipyridamole-induced headache through reduced dose initiation have
Piracetam has been shown to inhibit platelet aggregation. Therefore, we performed a double-blind, randomized, parallel group study to compare the efficacy of daily 1600 mg piracetam t.i.d. vs. 200 mg acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) t.i.d. in secondary stroke prophylaxis. 563 patients after stroke as
Background: Despite evidence of a quite large beneficial effect of endovascular treatment (EVT) for ischemic stroke caused by anterior circulation large vessel occlusion, many patients do not recover even after complete recanalization. To
BACKGROUND
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is a complex disease, and the therapeutic control of its risk factors may influence the efficacy of acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) and the occurrence of new vascular events. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential in vivo properties of a previous
Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) as secondary prophylaxis after ischaemic cerebrovascular events is well established and its efficacy unquestioned since over 15 years. According to the results of two European studies a dose of 100 mg per day is sufficient to reduce the incidence of further stroke,
BACKGROUND
Stroke is one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in the United States. Patients who suffer a cerebrovascular event are at high risk of a recurrence, and secondary prevention is crucial to reducing the burden of cerebrovascular disease. Acetylsalicylic acid (ASA, aspirin) is
