Emergent cerebrovascular disease risk factor weighting: is transient ischemic attack an Imminent Threat?
Cerebrovascular diseases (Basel Switzerland), 2009Co-Authors: J Gallego, Roberto Munoz, Eduardo Martínez-vilaAbstract:Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a neglected condition and a marker of atherothrombotic disease. Several cohort studies have demonstrated that the risk of early cerebral infarct after TIA is much higher than previously thought. Many studies have shown that the risk of stroke is high after TIA, and is on average 4-6% in the first 2 days. Up to 23% of strokes are preceded by transient ischemic attack (TIA), and there is substantial research interest in improving prevention during the short window between TIA and stroke. Nonetheless, patients with TIA are often managed without urgency. The currently available evidence suggests that the application of clinical scales is useful for the detection of patients with high risk of recurrence, and this is increased significantly when the information from neuroimaging and Doppler assessments is added. However, the limited prognostic value of these clinical variables together with the elevated risk of suffering an adverse vascular event are driving the search for new predictive factors (biological markers, neuroimaging data, ultrasound) that will help towards a better discrimination of high-risk patients. Recent studies have demonstrated that prompt evaluation and treatment of patients with TIA in a dedicated outpatient unit is associated with a lower than expected risk of subsequent stroke.

Measuring the Internet's Threat level: A global-local approach
2014 IEEE Symposium on Computers and Communications (ISCC), 2014Co-Authors: Spyridon Kollias, Vasileios Vlachos, Alexandros Papanikolaou, Periklis Chatzimisios, Christos Ilioudis, Kostas MetaxiotisAbstract:The Internet is a highly distributed and complex system consisting of billion devices and has become the field of various kinds of conflicts during the last two decades. As a matter of fact, various actors utilise the Internet for illicit purposes, such as for performing Distributed Denial of Service Attacks (DDoS) and for spreading various types of aggressive malware. Despite the fact that numerous services provide information regarding the Threat level of the Internet, they are mostly based on information acquired by their sensors or on offline statistical sampling of various security applications (antivirus software, intrusion detection systems etc.). This paper presents PROTOS (PROactive Threat Observatory System), an early warning system which is capable of estimating the Threat level across the Internet, using both a global and a local approach. The proposed system is therefore able to determine whether a specific host is under an Imminent Threat, as well as to provide an estimation of the malicious activity across the Internet.
