Meta-analysis of RCTs – International Journal of Stroke
International Journal of Stroke shared a post on X about a recent article by Fuxia Yang, adding:
”Meta-analysis of RCTs
In patients without clear anticoagulation indication, coagulation‑pathway therapies did not reduce covert brain infarcts (CBI) vs antiplatelets.
Composite endpoints dominated by CBI may not reflect clinical stroke benefit.”
