Time Course of Functional Recovery After Stroke: The Framingham Study:

TL;DR: Focusing treatment and rehabilitation within this specific time period may enhance eventual outcome for stroke survivors and document improvement in physical function over a relatively short period of time after stroke onset.
Journal ArticleDOI

Longitudinal Association of Glycemia and Microalbuminuria: The Framingham Offspring Study

TL;DR: Long-term hyperglycemia and subdiabetic glycemia increase risk for microalbuminuria, type 2 diabetes, and CVD seem to arise together over the course of decades, consistent with the hypothesis that they share a common antecedent.

Equalization of four cardiovascular risk algorithms after systematic recalibration: Individual-participant meta-analysis of 86 prospective studies

Lisa Pennells, +219 more
TL;DR: Head-to-head comparisons of four algorithms recommended by primary prevention guidelines, before and after ‘recalibration’, a method that adapts risk algorithms to take account of differences in the risk characteristics of the populations being studied suggest simple recalibration nearly equalized their performance and improved modelled targeting of preventive action to clinical need.
Journal ArticleDOI

Patient-Specific Predictions of Outcomes in Myocardial Infarction for Real-Time Emergency Use: A Thrombolytic Predictive Instrument

TL;DR: A time-insensitive predictive instrument that would predict, for an individual patient, the effect of thrombolysis on the likelihood of key clinical outcomes: acute mortality, long-term mortality, cardiac arrest, and serious complications of thRombolytic therapy [hemorrhagic stroke and major bleeding].
