Transhemispheric passage of microemboli in patients with unilateral internal carotid artery occlusion.
TL;DR: Evidence of transhemispheric passage of embolic material occurs in patients with unilateral internal carotid artery occlusion and contralateral stenosis, and no embolic signals were detected after surgery in any of the three patients who underwentcarotid endarterectomy.

Noninvasive Cardiac Event Monitoring to Detect Atrial Fibrillation After Ischemic Stroke A Randomized, Controlled Trial
Peter Higgins,Peter W. Macfarlane,Jesse Dawson,Gordon T. McInnes,Peter Langhorne,Kennedy R. Lees +5 more
TL;DR: Routine noninvasive cardiac-event monitoring after acute stroke enhances detection of paroxysmal AF and early anticoagulation and Guidelines on investigation for AF in stroke patients could be strengthened.
Low triglyceride, not low cholesterol concentration, independently predicts poor outcome following acute stroke.
TL;DR: Low triglyceride concentration strongly predicts higher mortality following stroke, whereas serum cholesterol level is not an independent predictor, and outcome following stroke is thus related more strongly to triglyceride-rich than to cholesterol-rich lipoprotein concentrations.
