Arterial Stiffness and Indices of Left Ventricular Diastolic Dysfunction in Patients with Embolic Stroke of Undetermined Etiology.

Increased arterial stiffness and indices of diastolic dysfunction as well as a higher NT-proBNP level are significantly associated with ESUS. These parameters require further scrutiny over time to understand their impact on the development of symptomatic heart failure. The ClinicalTrials.gov identifier is NCT03377465.
