Baseline Characteristics by Treatment Allocation to Isosorbide Mononitrate (ISMN), Cilostazol, ISMN-Cilostazol, or No Study Drug
stroke, Stroke
STROKE, STROKE
Abbreviations: ISMN, isosorbide mononitrate; MoCA, Montreal Cognitive Assessment; mRS, modified Rankin Scale; NIHSS, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale.Minimization variables included age (≤ vs >70 years), onset to randomization (≤ vs >100 days), highest level of education attained, systolic blood pressure, smoker status, stroke severity (NIHSS), and dependence from the stroke (mRS).One patient initially randomized to ISMN-cilostazol was noted to have an electrocardiogram contraindication to cilostazol (before receiving any drug) and thus only received a prescription for ISMN; this patient was retained in the cilostazol/ISMN-cilostazol groups for intention-to-treat analysis.
