Ischemic Stroke Review Articles

            Ischemic stroke is the most common type. It is usually caused by blood clots that block or block blood vessels in the brain. This prevents blood from flowing to the brain. After a few minutes, brain cells begin to die. Another cause is stenosis or narrowing of the arteries. This can happen because of arteriosclerosis, a disease that builds up plaque in your arteries. Temporary ischemic attacks (TIA) occur when blood supply to the brain is disrupted. TIA can mean you have a severe stroke. Blockade reduces blood and oxygen flow to the brain and causes brain cell damage or death. If blood circulation does not recover quickly, brain damage can be permanent. Ischemic stroke can be caused by various types of diseases. The most common problem is narrowing of the arteries in the neck or head. This is most often caused by atherosclerosis or a gradual build-up of cholesterol. If the arteries become too narrow, blood cells can collect and form clots. These blood clots can block the arteries where they are formed (thrombosis), or they can be detached and fall into traps in the arteries near the brain (emboli). Ischemic stroke can be divided into two main types: thrombotic and embolic. Ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke and accounts for about 88 percentages of all strokes.
