TL;DR: Among patients with acute ischemic stroke, blood pressure reduction with antihypertensive medications, compared with the absence of hypertensive medication, did not reduce the likelihood of death and major disability at 14 days or hospital discharge.

TL;DR: Higher levels of serum galectin-3 were independently associated with increased risk of death or major disability after stroke onset, suggesting that galectIn-3 may have prognostic value in poor outcomes of ischemic stroke.

TL;DR: Blood pressure reduction might reduce 3-month death and major disability and recurrent stroke among patients with acute ischemic stroke who receive antihypertensive treatment between 24 and 48 h after stroke onset.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as discussed by the authors proposed a multiscale dual attention network (MSDAN) based on raw EEG, which utilizes a 1d CNN to automatically extract features from raw EEG.

TL;DR: The effectiveness of trivalent seasonal influenza vaccine (TIV) and 23‐valent pneumococcal polysaccharide vaccine (PPSV23), separately and together, at preventing adverse COPD outcomes is studied.
