  2. Brain ischemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_ischemia

    This leads to poor oxygen supply or cerebral hypoxia and thus leads to the death of brain tissue or cerebral infarction/ischemic stroke. [2] It is a sub-type of stroke along with subarachnoid hemorrhage and intracerebral hemorrhage. [3] Ischemia leads to alterations in brain metabolism, reduction in metabolic rates, and energy crisis. [4]

  3. Cerebrovascular disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebrovascular_disease

    The most common presentation of cerebrovascular disease is an ischemic stroke or mini-stroke and sometimes a hemorrhagic stroke. [2] Hypertension (high blood pressure) is the most important contributing risk factor for stroke and cerebrovascular diseases as it can change the structure of blood vessels and result in atherosclerosis. [5]

  4. Cerebral infarction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_infarction

    Cerebral infarction, also known as an ischemic stroke, is the pathologic process that results in an area of necrotic tissue in the brain (cerebral infarct). [1] In mid to high income countries, a stroke is the main reason for disability among people and the 2nd cause of death. [2]

  5. Stroke - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stroke

    If symptoms last less than 24 hours, the stroke is a transient ischemic attack (TIA), also called a mini-stroke. [3] Hemorrhagic stroke may also be associated with a severe headache. [3] The symptoms of stroke can be permanent. [5] Long-term complications may include pneumonia and loss of bladder control. [3]

  6. Intracerebral hemorrhage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intracerebral_hemorrhage

    Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), also known as hemorrhagic stroke, is a sudden bleeding into the tissues of the brain (i.e. the parenchyma), into its ventricles, or into both. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] [ 1 ] An ICH is a type of bleeding within the skull and one kind of stroke (ischemic stroke being the other).

  7. Hemorrhagic infarct - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemorrhagic_infarct

    A hemorrhagic infarct is determined when hemorrhage is present around an area of infarction. Simply stated, an infarction is an area of dead tissue or necrosis. [1] When blood escapes outside of the vessel (extravasation) and re-perfuses back into the tissue surrounding the infarction, the infarction is then termed a hemorrhagic infarct (infarction). [1]

  8. Pediatric stroke - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pediatric_stroke

    The causes and risk factors of stroke in children are also different from those in adults. [2] Children have hemorrhagic strokes at the same rate in which they have ischemic strokes, while adults are more likely to have ischemic strokes. Pediatric stroke is more prevalent in males, with over 60% of pediatric strokes occurring in boys. [3]

  9. Ischemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischemia

    A sudden, brief episode (symptoms lasting only minutes) of ischemia affecting the brain is called a transient ischemic attack (TIA), often called a mini-stroke. [17] TIAs can be a warning of future strokes, with approximately 1/3 of TIA patients having a serious stroke within one year. [17] [18]
