Trait: Ischemic stroke

Trait Information
Identifier HP_0002140
Description Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is defined by the sudden loss of blood flow to an area of the brain with the resulting loss of neurologic function. It is caused by thrombosis or embolism that occludes a cerebral vessel supplying a specific area of the brain. During a vessel occlusion, there is a core area where damage to the brain is irreversible and an area of penumbra where the brain has lost function owing to decreased blood flow but is not irreversibly injured.

PSS001082 Cases were individuals who had experienced an ischemic stroke (IS) event. IS was defined according to the World Health Organization definition and included imaging by computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging in the majority of cases. All cases of IS were further divided into subtypes of large vessel (n=49), small vessel (n=43), cardioembolic (n=36), and undetermined. Undetermined strokes had undetermined causes, multiple causes identified, or an incomplete evaluation made. All stroke events were assessed by an adjudication committee, blinded to the identity of participants and study treatment group assignment. Median = 4.7 years
