• Hemodynamics and cardiovascular physiology underpin stroke and cerebrovascular events, using measurements of stroke volume, ejection time, and cardiac output to relate systemic function to cerebral perfusion [5], [10], [17], [19].

• Surgical and endovascular management of cerebrovascular disease is framed by carotid occlusion, reconstruction, and arteriography, with hemodynamic assessment before and after intervention [3], [4], [15], [19].

• Anticoagulant and antithrombotic strategies in cerebral vascular disease explore historical status and current approaches to thrombosis and embolic risk [6], [11].

• Epidemiology and risk-factor patterns (age, sex, hypertension, physical activity) frame cardiovascular and cerebrovascular outcomes, linking demographics to mortality and disease burden [8], [12], [20].

• Retinal and embolic phenomena serve as proxies for cerebral vascular disease, with retinal emboli and bright plaques correlating with cerebral embolic risk [9], [14].
