Major vascular events after first incident stroke: a population-based study
Major vascular events are prevalent after stroke, particularly among those with concurrent vascular conditions. The rate of stroke recurrence plateaued in the last decade, yet MI incidence increased. Targeted strategies to control risk factors are required to reduce the incidence of a second vascular event and prevent progression to mortality in these high-risk groups.
