Early Signs of Stroke on NCCT On NCCT, a stroke typically presents itself in the territory of the middle cerebral artery. [qmenta.com]
However, many patients present with symptoms that have an uncertain diagnosis. Patients with motor, speech, or prolonged symptoms are at the highest risk for recurrent stroke and the most likely to undergo comprehensive investigations. [jamanetwork.com]

The treatment of brain ischemia includes a number of medications that are used for the treatment and prevention of ischemic stroke. [verywellhealth.com]
The market is also segmented on the basis of treatment which includes angioplasty, drug treatment and other. Drug treatment is sub segmented into anticoagulation therapy, antiplatelet and other. [medgadget.com]
When given within 3 hours, treatment with tpa significantly improves the probability of a favourable outcome versus treatment with placebo. The outcome of brain ischemia is influenced by the quality of subsequent supportive care. [en.wikipedia.org]
Conclusion We demonstrated a reduced rate of silent cerebral infarcts following PED-Shield treatment of intracranial aneurysms than previously reported with other endovascular treatment modalities and with the previous device generations. [jnis.bmj.com]

Etiology
The incidence of stroke in young adults has increased worldwide over the past two to three decades, with strokes of undetermined etiology accounting for 20% to 30% of cases [1]. [cureus.com]
CT angiography may identify thrombus within an intracranial vessel, and may guide intra-arterial thrombolysis or clot retrieval. evaluation of the carotid and vertebral arteries in the neck establishing stroke etiology (eg. atherosclerosis, dissection [radiopaedia.org]
This result might be related to the longer presence and duration of AF in the persistent form, causing a greater exposure time to AF-related thromboembolic etiology. [onlinejacc.org]
In many patients the exact etiology of their stroke is not identified and these are classified as cryptogenic strokes. [emedicine.medscape.com]
