TL;DR: Lesmond et al. as discussed by the authors presented a model that requires only the time series of daily security returns to endogenously estimate the effective transaction costs for any firm, exchange, or time period.
Abstract: Transaction costs are important for a host of empirical analyses from market efficiency to international market research. But transaction costs estimates are not always available, or where available, are cumbersome to use and expensive to purchase. We present a model that requires only the time series of daily security returns to endogenously estimate the effective transaction costs for any firm, exchange, or time period. The feature of the data that allows for the estimation of transaction costs is the incidence of zero returns. Incorporating zero returns in the return-generating process, the model provides continuous estimates of average round-trip transaction costs from 1963 to 1990 that are 1.2% and 10.3% for large and small decile firms, respectively. These estimates are highly correlated (85%), with the most commonly used transaction cost estimators. How much does it cost to trade common stock? The Plexus Group (1996) estimated that trading costs are at least 1.0-2.0% of market value for institutions trading the largest NYSE/AMEX firms. Such trades account for more than 20% of reported trading volume. Stoll and Whaley (1983) reported quoted spread and commission costs of 2.0% for the largest NYSE size decile to 9.0% for the small decile. Bwardwaj and Brooks (1992) reported median quoted spread and commission costs between 2.0% for NYSE securities with prices greater than $20.00 and 12.5% for securities priced less than $5.00. These costs are important in determining investment performance and "can substantially reduce or possibly outweigh the expected value created by an investment strategy" [Keim and Madhavan (1995)]. This article is based on a portion of the first chapter of David A. Lesmond's dissertation entitled: "Trans

TL;DR: Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage is bleeding into the parenchyma of the brain that may extend into the ventricles and, in rare cases, the subarachnoid space.
Abstract: Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage is bleeding into the parenchyma of the brain that may extend into the ventricles and, in rare cases, the subarachnoid space. Each year, approximately 37,000 to 52,400 people in the United States have an intracerebral hemorrhage.1,2 This rate is expected to double during the next 50 years as a result of the increasing age of the population and changes in racial demographics. Intracerebral hemorrhage accounts for 10 to 15 percent of all cases of stroke and is associated with the highest mortality rate, with only 38 percent of affected patients surviving the first year.3 Depending on . . .

TL;DR: In patients with intracranial arterial stenosis, aggressive medical management was superior to PTAS with the use of the Wingspan stent system, both because the risk of early stroke after PTAS was high and because therisk of stroke with aggressive medical therapy alone was lower than expected.
Abstract: Enrollment was stopped after 451 patients underwent randomization, because the 30-day rate of stroke or death was 14.7% in the PTAS group (nonfatal stroke, 12.5%; fatal stroke, 2.2%) and 5.8% in the medical-management group (nonfatal stroke, 5.3%; non–stroke-related death, 0.4%) (P = 0.002). Beyond 30 days, stroke in the same territory occurred in 13 patients in each group. Currently, the mean duration of followup, which is ongoing, is 11.9 months. The probability of the occurrence of a primary end-point event over time differed significantly between the two treatment groups (P = 0.009), with 1-year rates of the primary end point of 20.0% in the PTAS group and 12.2% in the medical-management group. Conclusions In patients with intracranial arterial stenosis, aggressive medical management was superior to PTAS with the use of the Wingspan stent system, both because the risk of early stroke after PTAS was high and because the risk of stroke with aggressive medical therapy alone was lower than expected.
