Deans' stroke musings: Associations of urinary caffeine and caffeine metabolites with arterial stiffness in a large population-based study

Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Associations of urinary caffeine and caffeine metabolites with arterial stiffness in a large population-based study

How is your doctor lowering your arterial stiffness? Does she even know it can and should be done?
Like these? I eat a pound of watermelon a day.

Eating peanuts may lead to supple arteries and healthy hearts

Ponte B, et al. - The purpose herein was to investigate the upshot of caffeine on arterial stiffness by analyzing the correlation of urinary excretion of caffeine and its related metabolites with pulse pressure (PP) and pulse wave velocity (PWV). A connection was demonstrated between urinary caffeine, paraxanthine, and theophylline excretions with decreased parameters of arterial stiffness. This data displayed a protective effect of caffeine intake beyond its blood pressure–lowering effect.
