🧵In the STOP-CAD cohort, dissecting aneurysms occurred in ~14% at baseline, mostly within 6 months. These were linked to connective tissue disorders, fibromuscular dysplasia, and multivessel dissection, but not to higher risk of ischemic stroke or ICH. #ISC26 @AHAScience

Minor ischemic #stroke (NIHSS ≤5) is common, with up to 30% disability at 90d. This special report by De Santis & Foschi et al provides a pragmatic framework for acute management, balancing IVT, DAPT, anticoagulation, & EVT based on symptoms and etiology. ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.…

🧵ICYMI: October 2025 #Stroke Highlights:
🌟 The ARIC study showed that midlife morbidity clusters predict lifetime ischemic stroke risk. Cardiovascular & renal disease clusters showed highest risk, especially for severe strokes <70y.

Cancer-related strokes are difficult to manage, synonym of bad prognosis and still poorly understood, which is why I did my clinical PhD on this exciting topic.
It is now published online, check it out!😉: boristheses.unibe.ch/6822
