Abstract
null null Introduction null Large elevations of high sensitive Troponin T (hsTnT) in ischemic stroke patients is associated with a poor outcome. In a pilot study we found a high prevalence of malignancies among these patients. Since neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been linked to cancer-associated thrombosis, we hypothesized that the concomitant cerebral and myocardial ischemia could be the result of a NET-induced hypercoagulable...
