Stroke, Cardiovascular Disease, and Dementia After Hospitalized TIA
We report an increased risk of dementia after TIA in our multidecade cohort. The elevated risk was present after elimination of stroke as an intermediary variable. Consistent with other studies, we found an increased risk of stroke, CVD, and mortality after TIA. The clinical implications of these results are that in addition to vascular risk factor modification, clinicians should consider incorporating cognitive screening into post-TIA follow-up care.
