Cognitive performance in patients with ischemic stroke and additional myocardial injury - results from the multicenter prospective observational PRAISE study
BACKGROUND: In the general population, cognitive impairment and dementia are more common in individuals with prior myocardial injury, defined as elevated levels of high-sensitive cardiac troponin (hs-cTn). In stroke patients, data on the link between myocardial injury and cognitive outcome are scarce.
Type 1 Myocardial Infarction in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke
IMPORTANCE: Elevated values of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin (hs-cTn) are common in patients with acute ischemic stroke and are associated with poor prognosis. However, diagnostic and therapeutic implications in patients with ischemic stroke remain unclear. OBJECTIVE: To identify factors indicative of myocardial infarction (MI) in patients with acute ischemic stroke and hs-cTn elevation.
Type 1 Myocardial Infarction in Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke
Key Points Question Does a “rise and/or fall” pattern (dynamic change) of troponin values in patients with acute ischemic stroke and elevated troponin indicate myocardial infarction? Findings This cross-sectional study found that a dynamic change in troponin was not associated with myocardial infarction in patients with ischemic stroke whereas baseline absolute troponin value was independently associated with type 1 myocardial infarction.
