Improving Stroke Outcomes: Attenuating Progression and Recurrence

中风是第二大最常见的死亡原因和主要原因残疾。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。我们开发了一个从实验室到床边的项目，以介绍新的卒中治疗方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，血液中的标记物来帮助诊断和预测中风结果，并通过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.
