In conclusion, TIA is a disease entity with a high risk of subsequent cerebral ischemic events. It is associated with systemic inflammation and ischemic brain injury. The prognosis of TIA patients can be influenced by various factors, and risk assessment tools such as the ATRIA stroke risk score and CHADS₂ score can be used to guide clinical decision-making.
