About this study

Official title: "The Incidence of Carotid Web and Its Radiological Classification, Determination of Its Relationship With Ischemic Stroke by Evaluating the Clinical Data and Vascular Risk Factors of Carotid Web Cases"

In our research, we aim to increase awareness on this issue by classifying the frequency of carotid webs and their radiological classification; Evaluating the clinical data and vascular risk factors of carotid web cases and determining their relationship with ischemic stroke and determining the measures that can be taken for future optimal treatment.

We aimed to contribute to their approach.

Read the detailed description

Carotid web is a thin membrane-like tissue that extends from the wall to the lumen of the carotid artery bulb, identified radiologically. It is considered that stroke may be related to altered hemodynamics, blood stasis and fibrin-based clot embolization mechanisms in the distal carotid web. Radiologically, in DSA and CTA, there is a thin membrane-like intraluminal filling defect extending along the posterior carotid wall in oblique-sagittal sections and a corresponding defect in axial sections.

It is seen as a thin septum; There is no study on its classification in the literature. Determination of the incidence of carotid web, determination of its relationship with ischemic stroke / TİA, Facilitating distinctions such as dissection etc. by making radiological classification is important in terms of increasing awareness on this issue and early diagnosis. Demonstrating the relationship between carotid webs, which are shown as a cryptogenic cause of stroke, and vascular risk factors and taking protective measures against them will be effective in preventing strokes. In our research, we aim to increase awareness on this issue by classifying the frequency of carotid webs and their radiological classification; We aimed to evaluate the clinical data and vascular risk factors of carotid web cases, determine their relationship with ischemic stroke, and determine the precautions that can be taken to contribute to future optimal treatment approaches.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Stroke and Transient Ischemic Attack, run by Suleyman Demirel University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

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 3 inclusion and 3 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 28 Sep 2023. 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 Turkey (Türkiye). 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?

ischemic stroke (time frame: 1 year). 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 28 Sep 2023.
