TL;DR: Moderate- to high-quality evidence is found to support weak recommendations for intensive lowering of systolic blood pressure to <140 mmHg within six-hours of ICH onset, early surgery for patients with a Glasgow Coma Scale score 9–12, and avoidance of corticosteroids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Epidemiology of stroke and its subtypes in Chinese vs white populations: a systematic review.
TL;DR: There is good evidence for a slightly higher overall stroke incidence and higher proportion of intracerebral hemorrhage in Chinese vs white populations, but no clear evidence for different distributions of ischemic stroke subtypes.
Journal ArticleDOI
A systematic review of the effectiveness, cost-effectiveness and barriers to implementation of thrombolytic and neuroprotective therapy for acute ischaemic stroke in the NHS
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Objective evidence to guide MRI purchasing decisions and routine diagnostic use is lacking and Rigorous evaluation accuracy and practicalities of diagnostic imaging technologies should be the routine to improve effectiveness of healthcare.
Journal ArticleDOI
European Stroke Organisation (ESO) guidelines for the management of temperature in patients with acute ischemic stroke
George Ntaios,Tomasz Dziedzic,Patrik Michel,Vasileios Papavasileiou,Jesper Petersson,Dimitre Staykov,Brenda Thomas,Thorsten Steiner +7 more
TL;DR: Low-quality evidence is found to suggest against routine induction of hypothermia as a means to improve functional outcome and/or survival in patients with acute ischemic stroke, and the strengths of the recommendations are weak.
