Why the study?
Does the modified Essen stroke risk score improve prediction of recurrent cardiovascular events compared to the original score in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke?
Does the modified Essen stroke risk score improve prediction of recurrent cardiovascular events compared to the original score in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke?
A modified Essen stroke risk score incorporating waist circumference, stroke subtype, and gender improves the prediction of recurrent cardiovascular events at one year in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke.
