Trial summary

Predicting the risk of stroke remains a challenge in the management of transient ischemic attack (TIA). In addition to clinical variables, morphological features such as the presence of a diffusion weighted sequence (DWI) lesion and carotid stenosis of at least 50% improve risk stratification and are considered in the… Read more about this study

About this study

Predicting the risk of stroke remains a challenge in the management of transient ischemic attack (TIA). In addition to clinical variables, morphological features such as the presence of a diffusion weighted sequence (DWI) lesion and carotid stenosis of at least 50% improve risk stratification and are considered in the literature. score ABCD3-I1. Several studies have shown that brain microhemorrhages are associated with the risk of early stroke in patients with TIA. Data on white matter hypersignals on the T2-weighted sequence or FLAIR (FLuid Attenuated Inversion Recovery) are more conflicting. The global microangiopathic load, including the gaps, the hypersignals of the white matter, the perivascular spaces visible on MRI in the basal ganglia, especially when they are very numerous (> 20) and the gaps, have recently been described as being associated with stroke risk within 2 to 3 years of TIA or ischemic stroke. To date, the predictive value of global microangiopathic burden on early stroke risk in the course of TIA is not known.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. stroke recurrence within 90 days,

    The stroke recurrence within 90 days is determined via a clinical consultation or telephone call to the patient with a structured questionnaire.

    Measured: 90 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Diagnosis of TIA and MRI, run by Hospices Civils de Lyon at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Sep 2019. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

stroke recurrence within 90 days, (time frame: 90 days). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 30 Sep 2019.
