Prospective analysis of carotid endarterectomy and silent cerebral infarction in 97 patients.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Because the blood circulation system of retina and brain are closely related to each other, we examined whether stroke is associated with localized retinal nerve fiber layer defects (RNFLDs). METHODS:Patients with acute ischemic stroke as part of a hospital-based study group were compared with t...
