Nearly 30% of ischemic strokes have an unknown cause, which are referred to as
cryptogenic strokes (CS). Imaging studies suggest that a large proportion of these patients …

Cardiac embolism accounts for an increasing proportion of ischemic strokes and might
multiply several-fold during the next decades. However, research points to several potential …

Objective To investigate the prevalence and clinical determinants of atrial cardiopathy in
patients with embolic stroke of unknown source (ESUS) and compare with other established …

Background: Cryptogenic stroke, now defined as embolic stroke of undetermined source
(ESUS), represents about a quarter of all ischemic strokes and the reoccurrence is high …

Background Stroke of undetermined source, commonly termed cryptogenic stroke (CS),
accounts for a significant proportion of ischemic stroke etiology and have high rates of stroke …

Importance One-third of ischemic strokes have no identifiable cause after standard
evaluation. In 2014, researchers termed theseembolic strokes of undetermined source …

Cryptogenic ischemic stroke, defined as stroke of undetermined etiology, accounts for 7–
25% of all ischemic strokes. Stroke severity is reported to be less severe than cardioembolic …

Introduction Atrial cardiopathy is one of the most common potential sources of
thromboembolism for embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS). The study aims to …

Background and Purpose—Atrial cardiopathy and atherosclerotic plaque are two potential
mechanisms underlying embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS). The relationship …

Background Emerging evidence suggests the potential role of atrial cardiomyopathy (AC) as
