The research aims to evaluate stroke risk associated with moyamoya disease beyond East Asia.
Utilized Kaplan-Meier analysis to estimate 5-year stroke risk
Monitored subjects for angiographic progression
Analyzed differences in stroke risk by gender
Overall 5-year stroke risk was found to be 10%
Female subjects exhibited a higher trend in stroke risk
Angiographic progression correlated with increased stroke risk
Abstract
In our data, the overall Kaplan-Meier 5-year stroke risk was 10%. We observed a trend toward higher stroke risk in females and in those with angiographic progression.
