Relationships Between D-Dimer Levels and Stroke Risk as Well as Adverse Clinical Outcomes After Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Relationships Between D-Dimer Levels and Stroke Risk as Well as Adverse Clinical Outcomes After Acute Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Objective: Abnormal elevation of D-dimer levels is an important indicator of disseminated intravascular clotting. Therefore, we hypothesized that high D-dimer levels were associated with the risk of stroke and adverse clinical outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischem...
