- Abstract
We thank Dr Zhou Shunfeng for his kind comments on our study.[1] Our study synthesized data from case reports regarding cardio-cerebral infarctions (CCI), to determine the characteristics of the patients and the available treatment modalities. Given that this is an important and interesting field of study, we share similar hope that future studies can better characterize these patients and bridge the gap in knowledge to improve treatment for these patients. Given the high mortality rate of CCI, and consequently a low number of recorded cases in literature, no relevant large-scale studies surfaced during our search, which was also commented on by the author.
