AI Summary
No differences in the incidence of vascular events were found between patients with ischaemic stroke in the intervention and control groups, despite positive effects on cardiovascular risk factors. Additional evaluation is needed to assess longer-term effects and potential benefits on stroke-related sequelae and quality of life.
No differences were identified between patients with ischaemic stroke in the intervention group and control group with regard to the incidence of vascular events 1 year after baseline assessment, despite positive effects with regard to the control of some cardiovascular risk factors. Longer-term effects and other potentially favourable effects on stroke-related sequelae and quality of life require further evaluation.
