Ankle-brachial index long-term outcome after first-ever ischaemic stroke
Milionis, H.; Vemmou, A.; Ntaios, G.; Makaritsis, K.; Koroboki, E.; Papavasileiou, V.; Savvari, P.; Spengos, K.; Elisaf, M.; Vemmos, K. (2013)Background and purposeAnkle-brachial blood pressure index (ABI) is a clinical tool to identify the presence of peripheral artery disease. There is a scarcity of data associating ABI with long-term outcome in patients with ... -
Association of ischaemic stroke subtype with long-term cardiovascular events
Ntaios, G.; Papavasileiou, V.; Makaritsis, K.; Milionis, H.; Michel, P.; Vemmos, K. (2014)Background and purpose: There is no strong evidence that all ischaemic stroke types are associated with high cardiovascular risk. Our aim was to investigate whether all ischaemic stroke types are associated with high ... -
ASTRAL Score Predicts 5-Year Dependence and Mortality in Acute Ischemic Stroke
Papavasileiou, V.; Milionis, H.; Michel, P.; Makaritsis, K.; Vemmou, A.; Koroboki, E.; Manios, E.; Vemmos, K.; Ntaios, G. (2013)Background and Purpose-The ASTRAL score was externally validated showing remarkable consistency on 3-month outcome prognosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The present study aimed to evaluate ASTRAL score's ... -
CHADS(2), CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc, and long-term stroke outcome in patients without atrial fibrillation
Ntaios, G.; Lip, G. Y. H.; Makaritsis, K.; Papavasileiou, V.; Vemmou, A.; Koroboki, E.; Savvari, P.; Manios, E.; Milionis, H.; Vemmos, K. (2013)Objective: CHADS(2) and CHA(2)DS(2)-VASc scores are used to assess stroke risk in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated whether these scores are associated with stroke outcome in non-AF stroke patients. ... -
Embolic Strokes of Undetermined Source in the Athens Stroke Registry A Descriptive Analysis
Ntaios, G.; Papavasileiou, V.; Milionis, H.; Makaritsis, K.; Manios, E.; Spengos, K.; Michel, P.; Vemmos, K. (2015)Background and Purpose-A new clinical construct termed embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) was recently introduced, but no such population has been described yet. Our aim is to provide a detailed descriptive ... -
Embolic Strokes of Undetermined Source in the Athens Stroke Registry An Outcome Analysis
Ntaios, G.; Papavasileiou, V.; Milionis, H.; Makaritsis, K.; Vemmou, A.; Koroboki, E.; Manios, E.; Spengos, K.; Michel, P.; Vemmos, K. (2015)Background and Purpose-Information about outcomes in Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Source (ESUS) patients is unavailable. This study provides a detailed analysis of outcomes of a large ESUS population. Methods-Data set ... -
An integer-based score to predict functional outcome in acute ischemic stroke The ASTRAL score
Ntaios, G.; Faouzi, M.; Ferrari, J.; Lang, W.; Vemmos, K.; Michel, P. (2012)Objective: To develop and validate a simple, integer-based score to predict functional outcome in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) using variables readily available after emergency room admission. Methods: Logistic regression ... -
Leukoaraiosis and stroke recurrence risk in patients with and without atrial fibrillation
Ntaios, G.; Lip, G. Y. H.; Lambrou, D.; Papavasileiou, V.; Manios, E.; Milionis, H.; Spengos, K.; Makaritsis, K.; Vemmos, K. (2015) -

Ntaios, G.; Papavasileiou, V.; Makaritsis, K.; Milionis, H.; Manios, E.; Michel, P.; Lip, G. Y. H.; Vemmos, K. (2014)Background/objectives: The most recent ACC/AHA guidelines recommend high-intensity statin therapy in ischemic stroke patients of presumably atherosclerotic origin. On the contrary, there is no specific recommendation for ... -
