Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

NOR-SYS II is designed for finding the cause of acute ischemic stroke lesions in Young adults, age 15 to 49 years. Risk factors, arterial wall changes by intima-media thickness and plaques and consequences of stroke are examined by standardized diagnostics.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

NOR-SYS II is as far as possible standardized concerning patients' history, ultrasound examination of pre-cerebral and femoral arteries, and standardized examinations performed by speech therapists, occupational therapists and physiotherapists.

The ultrasound-protocol for carotid and femoral arteries is the same as previously performed in the NOR-SYS study. The Methods have been published before.
