Matteo Foschi Shares Review on Ischemic Stroke Despite Appropriate Oral Anticoagulation
Matteo Foschi, Neurologist at Azienda USL della Romagna, shared on LinkedIn:
”Our systematic review and meta-analysis on ischemic stroke despite appropriate oral anticoagulation is now published in Neurological Sciences Springer Nature
Across 10,624 patients, we found:
• a high burden of vascular risk factors,
• moderate stroke severity,
• and better 90-day functional outcomes with DOACs vs VKAs (60.4% vs 35.7%).
Despite guideline-recommended OAC, stroke still occurs — and major knowledge gaps persist regarding mechanisms and long-term prognosis.
This is exactly the space the ASPERA Registry is designed to fill, and the first ASPERA papers will emerge soon.”
