Arterial pre-hypertension and hypertension in intracranial versus extracranial cerebrovascular stenosis

摘要

Background and purposeSince it has remained unclear whether arterial pre-hypertension is a risk factor for cerebrovascular diseases, potential associations between arterial pre-hypertension and intracranial arterial stenosis (ICAS) and extracranial arterial stenosis (ECAS) were assessed.
