Journal ArticleDOI

How can we improve stroke thrombolysis rates? A review of health system factors and approaches associated with thrombolysis administration rates in acute stroke care

Journal ArticleDOI

Toll-Like Receptor ( TLR ) and Nucleosome-binding Oligomerization Domain ( NOD ) gene polymorphisms and endometrial cancer risk

TL;DR: The combination of the variant alleles of the two TLR9 polymorphisms, rs5743836 and rs187084, were protective for endometrial cancer risk and higherTLR9 activity may be related to efficient removal of microbial pathogens within the endometrium.
