Abstract

This scientific paper provides a comprehensive assessment of the recent research on the intricate relationship between diabetes and ischemic stroke. Examining the pathophysiological mechanisms, epidemiological trends, and clinical implications, the paper synthesizes findings from diverse studies. Insights into risk factors, preventive strategies, and challenges are explored, emphasizing the need for continued investigation. The abstract highlights the significance of understanding this connection for healthcare professionals, offering potential avenues for preventive interventions and improved patient care. The synthesis of recent research contributes to the evolving landscape of knowledge surrounding diabetes and its implications for ischemic stroke.

Keywords: Diabetes, Ischemic stroke, Pathophysiological mechanisms, Epidemiological trends, Preventive strategies.
