Abstract | BACKGROUND: Given the importance of intracranial stenosis as a cause of recurrent ischemic stroke and the lack of evidence supporting a clear choice for prevention of recurrent ischemic events, a computer simulation model for prognostic prediction could be used to improve decision making. AIMS: SETTING AND DESIGN: The cohort consisted of 206 patients from 2006 to 2011. MATERIALS AND METHODS: STATISTICAL ANALYSIS: Two tests were used: Pearson Chi-square test or Fisher's exact test (for percentages) and Kruskal Wallis test (for rank order data). RESULTS: CONCLUSION:
