Background The presence of apathy is associated with less favourable outcomes in dementia, including more rapid functional and cognitive decline, greater disease severity and increased mortality. We aimed to explore and gain an understanding into ho... Read More about The experience of apathy in dementia: A qualitative study.

Background: Direct mechanical thrombectomy may result in similar outcomes compared to a bridging approach with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT + MT) in acute ischemic stroke. Recent randomized controlled trials have varied in their design and noninferi...
