| Abstract | BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Fluid-attenuated inversion recovery vascular hyperintensity (FVH) is often identified in patients with acute ischemic stroke. The purpose of this study was to determine the clinical significance of FVH in patients with transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS: Consecutive inpatients with TIA who underwent MRI within 24 hours of symptom onset were studied. The frequency, relative factors, and time course of FVH were determined. RESULTS: Of the 202 patients who were enrolled (76 women, mean age, 69.0 ± 13.2 years), FVH was identified in 41 patients (20%). Multivariate analysis showed that atrial fibrillation (odds ratio, 7.14; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.69-18.1), arterial occlusive lesion (odds ratio, 4.89; 95% CI, 3.03-12.2), and hemiparesis (odds ratio, 2.81; 95% CI, 1.17-7.48) was independently associated with FVH. Of 23 recurrence-free patients with FVH positive undergoing follow-up MRI at a median of 7 days after the onset, FVH was no longer positive in 15 patients (65%). Atrial fibrillation was more common (P=0.027) and arterial occlusive lesion was less common (P<0.001) in patients with transient FVH compared with those with persistent FVH. Within 90 days after the onset, 13 patients developed recurrent TIA or ischemic stroke. After Cox proportional hazard analysis, FVH (hazard ratio, 3.65; 95% CI, 1.09-12.7), arterial occlusive lesion (hazard ratio, 4.15; 95% CI, 1.18-17.1), and coexistence of FVH and arterial occlusive lesion (hazard ratio, 13.9; 95% CI, 3.36-71.0) were significantly associated with recurrent TIA or ischemic stroke. CONCLUSIONS: The presence of FVH early after symptom onset may help to diagnosis TIA, to identify the potential mechanisms of TIA and to predict recurrence risk after a TIA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
