TL;DRAbstract

Background and Purpose: Cognitive impairment is an important outcome in stroke prevention trials. The Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MoCA) score is a cognitive measure used in the Stenting and Aggressive Medical Management for Preventing Recurrent Stroke in Intracranial Stenosis (SAMMPRIS) trial due to its sensitivity in detecting cognitive impairment in stroke patients. We sought to determine the prevalence of low baseline MoCA scores and the baseline risk factors associated with lower MoCA scores in SAMMPRIS patients. Methods: The main entrance criteria in SAMMPRIS were a TIA or non-disabling stroke within 30 days prior to enrollment attributed to 70-99% intracranial atherosclerosis. Patients with stroke as the qualifying event who had an NIH Stroke Score indicating aphasia or neglect were excluded from these analyses. Low MoCA score was defined as <26, the standard value that has 90% sensitivity for detecting mild cognitive impairment. Baseline demographic, medical history, labor
