We undertook a prospective study of consecutive patients to determine the frequency of elevated IgG and IgM anticardiolipin antibodies in transient ischemic attack and ischemic stroke and found elevated IgG antibodies in 8.2%(9 of 110)and IgM in 9.1%(10 of 110),only the former being significantly greater than in a healthy control population.We suggest that anticardiolipin screening be concentrated on the young. |
