Correlation and predictive value of platelet biological indicators and recurrence of large-artery atherosclerosis type of ischemic stroke

Large-artery atherosclerosis type of ischemic stroke happens when a blood clot forms in a major artery that carries blood to the brain. This causes a blockage and a decrease in blood flow to the brain tissue making up approximately 15-20% of all cases. This type of stroke is more prevalent in older adults and those with risk factors such as high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, smoking, and a family history of stroke. To investigate the correlation and predictive value of platelet-related biological indicators with recurrence of large-artery atherosclerosis type of ischemic stroke (LAA-IS)2. The patients were divided into a relapse group (R,
