  Anytime I see 'care' in any stroke press release I know the stroke medical world is not willing to disclose actual results because they are so fucking bad, it wouldn't look good, so misdirection is used. Don't fall for that misdirection! By touting 'care' they are not telling you about results or recovery which survivors want! Survivors don't care about door to needle time; you FUCKING BLITHERING IDIOTS; they want 100% recovery! why aren't you providing that? Big fucking whoopee.    But you tell us NOTHING ABOUT RESULTS. They remind us they 'care' about us multiple times but n ..read more

Validity of an android device for assessing mobility in people with chronic stroke and hemiparesis: a cross-sectional study

 Assessments are completely worthless unless they point directly to the 100% recovery protocols. I see nothing here that suggests you go from the assessment to the chosen 100% recovery protocol. When the hell will the stroke medical world do ANYTHING TO GET STROKE SOLVED? I'd have you all fired! A lot of dead wood needs to removed in stroke and until that occurs stroke will never be solved!

Is your definition of effective anywhere close to 100% recovery? NO? Then you can't call it effective at all, can you? Don't you dare use the tyranny of low expectations to declare anything less than 100% recovery effective! Does the Ischemic Core Really Matter? An Updated Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Large Core Trials After TESLA, TENSION, and LASTE Mohammad AlMajali, Mahmoud Dibas, Malik Ghannam, Milagros Galecio‐Castillo, Abdullah Al Qudah, Farid Khasiyev, Juan Vivanco‐Suarez, Aaron Rodriguez‐Calienes, … See all authors Originally published16 Apr 2024https://doi.org/10.1161/SVI ..read more

It's the First Drug Shown to Slow Alzheimer's. Why Is It Off to a Slow Start?

 Whoops, not for me. With my damaged brain already running with millions to billions less neurons I'll pass on more brain shrinkage. But I'm not medically trained so don't listen to me. From this article comes the following paragraphs: YIKES! FDA Approves Lecanemab Against Alzheimer’s But there is a new and disturbing fly in the ointment. A study published in the journal Neurology (March 27, 2023) reveals that anti-amyloid drugs like lecanemab can cause brain shrinkage. The researchers call this accelerated “brain atrophy.” Such a reduction in brain volume is usually linked to worsening d ..read more
