Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Main Objective: To determine the optimal level of blood pressure reduction (systolic blood pressure <125, <145-135 or <135-125 mm Hg) and lipid reduction (LDL-cholesterol <1.8 or <2.8-1.8 mmol/L) for the prevention of recurrent stroke.;Secondary Objective: To determine the optimal level of blood pressure reduction (systolic blood pressure <125, <145-135 or <135-125 mm Hg) and lipid reduction (LDL-cholesterol <1.8 or <2.8-1.8 mmol/L) for the prevention of other cardiovascular events, cognitive decline, dementia and neurological disability.;Primary end point(s): Recurrent stroke (fatal or non-fatal);Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Four years
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Secondary end point(s): Cardiovascular events, non-fatal or fatal (stroke, myocardial infarction, vascular interventions, hospitalisation for heart failure); Cardiovascular deaths; All-cause deaths; Cognitive impairment; Dementia; Functional disability (modified Rankin Scale).;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Four years
