Patients with noncardioembolic stroke\/transient ischemic attack (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, \u22649; infarct volume, \u226425 mL) were randomized to dabigatran or aspirin. Magnetic resonance imaging was performed before randomization and repeated at day 30. Imaging end points were ascertained centrally by readers blinded to treatment.

The qualifying event was a transient ischemic attack in 21%, and ischemic stroke in 79% of patients. Median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (interquartile range) was 1 (0\u20132), and mean infarct volume 3.2\u00b16.5 mL. No symptomatic HT occurred. Asymptomatic petechial HT developed in 11\/142 (7.8%) of dabigatran-assigned patients and 5\/142 (3.5%) of aspirin-assigned patients (relative risk, 2.301 [95% CI, 0.778\u20136.802]).
