Demographic and clinical characteristics of patients with and without DWI lesions.

aCMB data were unavailable in 11 patients. The effective subject number for CMB analysis is n = 16 for DWI negative; n = 126 for DWI positive.
*Significant differences were defined as those with p<0.05.
Results are expressed as number (column %) for nominal variable and mean (SD) for continuous variables.
Abbreviations: DWI = diffusion-weighted imaging; TIA = transient ischemic attack; NIHSS = National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale; GCS = Glasgow Coma Scale; SBP = systolic blood pressure; DBP = diastolic blood pressure; MAP = mean arterial pressure; ER = emergency room; WMH: white matter hyperintensity; EPVS = enlarged perivascular spaces; CMB = cerebral microbleeds; mRS = modified Rankin Scale.
