TLDR
Quantitative electroencephalographic variables may be used to differentiate patients with good neurologic outcomes from those with poor outcomes after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate electroencephalogram-derived quantitative variables after out-of-hospital cardiac arrest.Design:Prospective study.Setting:University hospital intensive care unit.Patients:Thirty comatose adult patients resuscitated from a witnessed out-of-hospital ventricular fibrillation cardiread more

What's wrong with Bonferroni adjustments
TL;DR: This paper advances the view, widely held by epidemiologists, that Bonferroni adjustments are, at best, unnecessary and, at worst, deleterious to sound statistical inference.
