Timing of Daily Body Clock Start Linked to Outcomes After Sudden Stroke

The circadian rhythm may influence the onset of ischemic stroke.

• The timing of stroke onset is potentially associated with vascular risk profiles.
• Stroke severity may vary based on the circadian timing of onset.
• Prognosis in acute ischemic stroke patients could differ with the time of stroke occurrence.
• Treatment methods for acute ischemic stroke may be affected by the circadian timing.
