Improving Stroke Outcomes: Attenuating Progression and Recurrence

中风是导致死亡和致残的第二大常见原因。几乎没有经过验证的干预措施，因此我们需要引入新的干预措施。我们开发了一个从床到床的项目，以引入新的中风疗法及其早期二级预防。我们的总体目标是为它们的有效性和安全性提供证据。我们将使用动物中风模型，血液中的标志物来帮助诊断和预测中风结果，并使用成像来帮助选择患者进行几项临床试验。

Stroke is the second most common cause of death and major cause disability. There are few proven interventions, so we need to introduce new ones. We developed a bench to bedside program to introduce new stroke therapies and its early secondary prevention. Our general goal is to provide evidence for their effectiveness and safety. We will use animal stroke models, markers in the blood to help diagnose and predict stroke outcome and imaging to help select patients for several clinical trials.
