The aim of this review is to achieve a consensus between Taiwan Stroke Society (TSS) and Taiwan Society of Emergency Medicine (TSEM) to manage acute non-cardioembolic minor ischemic stroke (MIS) and high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA). The methodology is to review the recent findings from clinical trials of dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) from 2010 to 2021 and updates in clinical practice guidelines from 2018 to 2022 for non-cardioembolic MIS/TIA management at the acute stage. Four leading clinical studies, CHANCE, POINT, THALES, and CHANCE-2 along with other relevant studies introducing DAPT, are discussed in this review.

Article Synopsis
  • - The study examined the occurrence and characteristics of early seizures (ES) in patients suffering from intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) after a stroke, focusing on data collected from 297 patients at Landseed International Hospital.
  • - Results indicated that 3% of participants experienced seizures during their hospital stay, with those affected showing higher baseline stroke severity scores (NIHSS) and greater in-hospital mortality rates compared to those without seizures.
  • - Factors linked to the development of early seizures included higher initial NIHSS scores and a history of coronary artery disease, while the extent of cortical involvement was not a significant factor, suggesting potential differences in post-stroke seizure patterns between Asian and Western populations.
