TL;DR: Outcomes were independent of patient age, sex or stroke severity, but appeared to be better in stroke units based in a discrete ward, and there was no indication that organised stroke unit care resulted in a longer hospital stay.
Journal ArticleDOI
A meta-analysis of the risk of boys with isolated cryptorchidism developing testicular cancer in later life
TL;DR: A meta-analysis to clarify the true magnitude of this risk of testicular malignancy in boys with isolated cryptorchidism, allowing clinicians to better counsel patients and their families is performed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Categorizing Stroke Prognosis Using Different Stroke Scales
TL;DR: Little predictive information is lost and the use and categorization of a variety of stroke severity or dependency scales is acceptable in analyses, and there is substantial to almost perfect agreement among categorized scales.
Journal ArticleDOI
Organized Inpatient (Stroke Unit) Care for Stroke
TL;DR: Stroke patients who receive organised inpatient care in a stroke unit are more likely to be alive, independent, and living at home one year after the stroke.
Journal ArticleDOI
The GOAL study: a prospective examination of the impact of factor V Leiden and ABO(H) blood groups on haemorrhagic and thrombotic pregnancy outcomes.
TL;DR: This work neither confirmed the protective effect of FVL on pregnancy‐related blood loss reported in previous smaller studies, nor did it find the increased risk of some vascular complications reported in retrospective studies.
