Deans' stroke musings: Do you know how to interpret clinical trial results?

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.

Of course not, that is your doctor's job. Are they good at it? I've listed thousands that your doctor and stroke hospital should have interpreted and created stroke protocols. HAVE THEY DONE A SINGLE ONE?

STAT’s guide to interpreting clinical trial results

$499.00

Interpreting clinical trial results is not for the faint of heart. Companies spin, short-sellers hawk, and everyone else is left swimming through the muck. But there is an art to reading, and writing, scientific results — and you can learn it.

In our latest STAT Report, STAT senior writers Sharon Begley and Adam Feuerstein provide basic tools to help you read clinical trial results with an appropriately skeptical (or at least critical) eye. They also examine specific examples of spin, noting the sections of papers reporting the results of clinical trials where they appear — and why that matters. If you’re looking to cut through noise to better understand scientific data or make sense of company performance and value, this report will give you the foundation you need to make smarter business decisions.
Highlights include:

A definition of spin in clinical trials, supported by real life examples.
Four key questions to ask when evaluating clinical trial results, and an overview of additional tools you need to read results more critically
Analysis of the red flags you should look for in clinical trial design, execution, and reporting of results.
