Population based study of early risk of stroke after transient ischaemic attack or minor stroke: implications for public education and organisation of services
Open accessAbstract
OBJECTIVE: To estimate the very early stroke risk after a transient ischaemic attack (TIA) or minor stroke and thereby inform the planning of effective stroke prevention services. DESIGN: Population based prospective cohort study of patients with TIA or stroke. SETTING: Nine general practices in Oxfordshire, England, from April 2002 to April 2003. PARTICIPANTS: All patients who had a TIA (n = 87) or minor stroke (n = 87) during the study period and who presented to medical attention. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Risk of recurrent stroke at seven days, one month, and three months after TIAs and minor strokes. RESULTS: The estimated risk of recurrent stroke was 8.0% (95% confidence interval 2.3% to 13.7%) at seven days, 11.5% (4.8% to 18.2%) at one month, and 17.3% (9.3% to 25.3%) at three months after a TIA. The risks at these three time periods after a minor stroke were 11.5% (4.8% to 11.2%), 15.0% (7.5% to 22.5%), and 18.5% (10.3% to 26.7%). CONCLUSIONS: The early risks of stroke after a TIA or minor stroke are much higher than commonly quoted. More research is needed to determine whether these risks can be reduced by more rapid instigation of preventive treatment.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
