Exploring the efficacy and safety of dual antiplatelet therapy in patients with embolic stroke of undetermined source according to stroke risk stratification: Propensity-score matched analysis
DAPT did not confer benefit in unselected patients with ESUS but was effective in reducing END in high-risk individuals with ESRS ≥3. These findings support a risk-stratified approach to DAPT use in ESUS.
