Score for Predicting Active Cancer in Patients with Ischemic Stroke: A Retrospective Study

CONCLUSIONS: We devised a clinical score to predict active cancer in patients with ischemic stroke based on the absence of a history of hyperlipidemia and elevated serum D-dimer and fibrinogen levels. The use of this score may allow for early intervention. Further research is needed to confirm the implementation of this score in clinical settings.PMID:34124248 | PMC:PMC8169246 | DOI:10.1155/2021/5585206
