Recruitment Details
Key information relevant to the recruitment process for the overall study, such as dates of the recruitment period and locations
244 patients with subacute or chronic ischemic stroke were recruited from outpatient clinics of 5 comprehensive stroke centers of Korea

Patients with aspirin therapy were recruited due to subacute or chronic ischemic stroke.

The patients should have taken aspirin 100mg per day at least 2 weeks before randomization
