Research Abstract
A total of 45 outpatients (mean age 67.1 ± 10.2 years) who had previously experienced a transient ischemic attack or a minor non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke at a single hospital in Japan. RIS occurred in 9 patients; they had significantly higher visceral fat level (p = 0.007) and %body fat (p = 0.007) values and lower MVPA (p = 0.011) values than patients without recurrence. A multivariate analysis of these factors indicated that age, visceral fat level and MVPA were significant independent predictors of RIS.
