Article Synopsis
- - The study analyzed 3847 patients who suffered from a transient ischemic attack or minor ischemic stroke, focusing on those without traditional risk factors (like hypertension and diabetes) to compare their outcomes with those who did have risk factors.
- - After one year, the risk of major cardiovascular events (MACE) was similar between the two groups, but after five years, those without traditional risk factors had a significantly lower risk of MACE (7.9% vs 13.9%).
- - In patients without traditional risk factors, arterial stenosis was identified as a critical predictor for MACE, indicating that while their long-term risk was lower, they were not entirely without risk.
Background: High-risk patients, often immunocompromised and not responding to vaccine, continue to experience severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) and death. Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) were shown to be effective to prevent severe COVID-19 for these patients. Nevertheless, concerns about the emergence of resistance mutations were raised.
