Abstract

•Previous infections accounted in about 17% of patients, mainly in posterior syndromes and in large artery atherosclerosis.•Previous infections triple the risk of haemorrhagic transformation of cerebral ischemia in thrombolised stroke patients.•IgA seropositivity to Chlamydia pneumoniae increases the risk of poor outcome in thrombolised stroke patients.
