The efficacy and safety of aspirin plus dipyridamole versus aspirin in secondary prevention following TIA or stroke: A meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials
Conclusions: Aspirin plus dipyridamole combination therapy was beneficial in reducing the recurrence of stroke, and did not increase the bleeding event. Hence, aspirin plus dipyridamole combination therapy is effective and safe for the secondary prevention of stroke.

Risk-Benefit Profile of Long-Term Dual- Versus Single-Antiplatelet Therapy Among Patients With Ischemic Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
CONCLUSION: Compared with monotherapy, dual-antiplatelet therapy lasting more than 1 year after an index ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack is not associated with a greater reduction in overall recurrent stroke risk. However, long-term dual-antiplatelet therapy is linked to higher risk for ICH than clopidogrel monotherapy in this patient population. PRIMARY FUNDING SOURCE: Chang Gung Memorial Hospital.

Antiplatelet Treatment for Prevention of Cerebrovascular Events in Patients With Vascular Diseases: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Clinical Sciences
Conclusions— DAPT with clopidogrel and aspirin compared with aspirin effectively reduces the risk of total and ischemic stroke in the overall cohort consisting of patients with cardiovascular disease without increase in intracranial hemorrhage, as well as decreases the risk of a recurrent total stroke in patients with a previous stroke/transient ischemic attack. Our meta-analysis suggests that DAPT including low-dose aspirin (75–100 mg) and clopidogrel (75 mg) should be further investigated as a strategy to reduce recurrent strokes.

Edoxaban versus placebo, aspirin, or aspirin plus clopidogrel for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. An indirect comparison analysis.
In conclusion, edoxaban is likely to provide even better protection from stroke and ICH than placebo, aspirin alone, or aspirin plus clopidogrel in both clinical trial populations and unselected community populations. Both edoxaban doses would also bring a positive NCB compared to anti-platelet drugs or placebo/non-treatment based on 'real world' data. PMID: 26062437 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

Stroke subtypes and interventional studies for transient ischemic attack.
Authors: Lavallée P, Amarenco P Abstract Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is the most important risk factor for ischemic stroke. The risk is the highest in the first hours after symptom onset, and treatment must be initiated in emergency. In the acute phase, antithrombotic agent is probably the most important treatment, but it is not excluded that lipid-lowering agents and/or antihypertensive drugs are also important. For current guidelines, monotherapy of antiplatelet agent remains the gold standard in emergency. However, most recent data and meta-analysis support a combination therapy of clopidogrel and aspirin. ...

Temporal Trends and Patient Characteristics Associated With Drug Utilisation After First-Ever Stroke: Insights From Chronic Disease Registry Data in Singapore.
CONCLUSION: This study reveals changes in prescription behaviour over time in a multiethnic Asian population with first-ever stroke. Patient characteristics including younger age, Malay ethnicity and certain comorbidities (i.e. hyperlipidaemia, atrial fibrillation) were associated with the combined use of all 3 guideline medications among ischaemic stroke patients.

Clinical Effects of Dual Antiplatelet Therapy or Aspirin Monotherapy after Acute Minor Ischemic Stroke or Transient Ischemic Attack, a Meta-Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Among patients with acute minor ischemic stroke or TIA, DAPT, as compared with aspirin monotherapy, might offer better effectiveness in terms of ischemic stroke recurrence at the expense of a higher risk of major bleeding. The trade-off between ischemic benefits and bleeding risks should be assessed in tailoring the therapeutic strategies.PMID:34323179 | DOI:10.2174/1381612827666210728102459

Dual Antiplatelet Therapy in Ischemic Stroke Prevention: Which Two Could Be Better than One?
AbstractPurpose of reviewRecurrent stroke after ischemic stroke (IS) or high-risk transient ischemic attack (TIA) increases morbidity and mortality. Secondary stroke prevention strategies include modification of behavioral and vascular risk factors and antithrombotic use, including single or dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT). In this review, we focus on DAPT indications, combinations, and treatment duration.Recent findingsStudies showed that for patients with mild to moderate non-cardioembolic strokes or those with symptomatic intracranial or mild extracranial stenosis ( ≤ 30% diameter reduction), short-term DAPT (21–...

Statin and dual antiplatelet therapy for the prevention of early neurological deterioration and recurrent stroke in branch atheromatous disease: a protocol for a prospective single-arm study using a historical control for comparison
Introduction Branch atheromatous disease (BAD) contributes to small-vessel occlusion in cases of occlusion or stenosis of large calibre penetrating arteries, and it is associated with a higher possibility of early neurological deterioration (END) and recurrent stroke in acute ischaemic stroke. As the pathology of BAD is due to atherosclerosis, we postulate that early intensive medical treatment with dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and high-intensity statins may prevent END and recurrent stroke in acute small subcortical infarction caused by BAD. Methods and analysis In this prospective, single-centre, open-label, non-ran...
