TL;DR: The results indicate that the short-term risk of stroke and other adverse events among patients who present to an ED with a TIA is substantial and characteristics of the patient and the TIA may be useful for identifying patients who may benefit from expeditious evaluation and treatment.

TL;DR: It is indicated that site of occlusion, time to recanalization, and time to treatment are important variables in acute stroke intervention with this agent.

TL;DR: Recommendations were developed based on literature review using the GRADE system, discussion integrating the literature with the collective experience of the participants and critical review by an impartial jury and emphasis was placed on the principle that recommendations should be based not only on the quality of the data but also tradeoffs and translation into practice.

TL;DR: Subarachnoid hemorrhage is an uncommon cause of stroke mortality but occurs at a young age, producing a relatively large burden of premature mortality, comparable with ischemic stroke.

TL;DR: Degree of aneurysm occlusion after the initial treatment is a strong predictor of the risk of subsequent rupture in patients presenting with subarachnoid hemorrhage, which justifies attempts to completely occlude aneurYSms.
