Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Ischaemic stroke patients - Patients who have suffered an ischaemic stroke, as determined clinically and verified with imaging (CT brain; MRI).

Healthy control participants - People who have never suffered a stroke, and are matched to the ischaemic stroke patient group according to age, education, and vascular risk factors.
