22. Timely treatment in stroke and TIA
Abstract : In acute stroke, the effect of both acute treatments and secondary prevention is timedependent. Patients´ delay is an important obstacle to acute recanalization therapy for stroke. To decrease this delay, a stroke educational campaign was carried out in Sweden. READ MORE

23. The hemostatic pathway in ischemic stroke. Clinical studies of genetic variation and plasma protein measurements
Abstract : Although stroke is a common cause of death and disability in adults, there are few studies on stroke compared to other common diseases. A stroke could be either ischemic or hemorrhagic, but even within these two groups, disease etiology shows heterogeneity. READ MORE

24. Ischemic Stroke Outcomes - Analyses of Protein and Genetic Biomarkers
Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to identify novel biomarkers for ischemic stroke outcomes. The specific aims were to test the hypotheses that circulating concentrations of hemostatic biomarkers predict the long-term post-stroke risk of recurrent vascular events/death (paper I) and/or cognitive impairment (paper II) and that circulating concentrations of a marker of neuronal damage (neurofilament light chain, NfL) predict post-stroke functional and neurological outcomes (paper III) as well as to identify genetic variants associated with post-stroke functional outcome through a genome wide association study (GWAS) approach (paper IV).

25. Cardiovascular disease and diabetes or renal insufficiency : the risk of ischemic stroke and risk factor intervention
Abstract : BackgroundIn patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) or chronic kidney disease (CKD), established cardiovascular disease (CVD) is associated with an increased risk of recurrent events and poor outcome. Ischemic stroke after an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a devastating event that carries high risks of decreased patient independence and death. READ MORE
