#CSD and Stroke
π§ In ischemic stroke, cortical spreading #depolarizations may push vulnerable #penumbra toward infarction through ion failure, edema and spreading ischemia.
βοΈCSD-targeted therapy remains promising

πECG-detected AF resembles high-burden AF
πlow-burden monitor-detected AFDAS may carry less embolic risk.
β±οΈEarlier monitoring finds more AF, but has not yet proven fewer recurrent strokes
