Stroke in Commercial Flights.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Patent foramen ovale (PFO) is significantly associated with cryptogenic stroke (CS). However, even in patients with CS, a PFO can be an incidental finding. We sought to estimate the probability that a PFO in a patient with CS is incidental. METHODS:A systematic search identified 23 case-control ...
