thrombolysis treatment for acute ischaemic stroke between March 3, 2012 and April 30, 2018. Methods: All available brain imaging were analysed centrally by expert readers. Log-linear regression was used to determine the effects of intensive blood pressure lowering on the size of cerebral infarction, with adjustment for potential confounders. The primary analysis pertained to follow-up computerised tomography (CT) scans done between 24 and 36 h. Sensitivity analysis were undertaken in patients with only a follow-up magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and either MRI or CT at 24–36 h, and in patients with any brain imaging done at any time during follow-up. This trial is registered with ClinicalTrials.gov, number NCT01422616. Findings: There were 1477 (67.3%) patients (mean age 67.7 [12.1] y; male 60%, Asian 65%) with available follow-up brain imaging for analysis, including 635 patients with a CT done at 24–36 h. Mean achieved systolic blood pressures over 1–24 h were 141 mm Hg and 149 mm Hg in the intensive group and guideline group, respectively. There was no effect of intensive blood pressure lowering on the median size (ml) of cerebral infarction on follow-up CT at 24–36 h (0.3 [IQR 0.0–16.6] in the intensive group and 0.9 [0.0–12.5] in the guideline group; log Δmean −0.17, 95% CI −0.78 to 0.43). The results were consistent in sensitivity and subgroup analyses. Interpretation: Intensive blood pressure lowering treatment to a systolic target <140 mm Hg within several hours after the onset of symptoms may not increase the size of cerebral infarction in patients who receive thrombolysis treatment for acute ischaemic stroke of mild to moderate neurological severity.

In both trials, the randomised treatment group was no longer associated with PCSM (p>=0.20) when the candidate surrogates were included in the model. Therefore, both PSA metrics satisfied Prentice criteria for surrogacy. INTERPRETATION: After radiotherapy and 6 months of androgen suppression, men with PSA end values exceeding 0.5 ng/mL should be considered for long-term androgen suppression and those with localised or locally advanced prostate cancer with PSA nadir values exceeding 0.5 ng/mL should be considered for inclusion in randomised trials investigating the use of drugs that have extended survival in castration-resistant metastatic prostate cancer.]]> Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:16:30 AEDT ]]> A 21st-century medical school https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23407 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:13:55 AEDT ]]> Risk of intracerebral haemorrhage with alteplase after acute ischaemic stroke: a secondary analysis of an individual patient data meta-analysis https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24985 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:09:54 AEDT ]]> Local implementation of obesity policy (letter) https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:24188 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:09:48 AEDT ]]> Radiation doses and fractionation schedules in non-low-risk ductal carcinoma in situ in the breast (BIG 3–07/TROG 07.01): a randomised, factorial, multicentre, open-label, phase 3 study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52865 Mon 30 Oct 2023 10:01:47 AEDT ]]> The potential for indoor fans to change air conditioning use while maintaining human thermal comfort during hot weather: an analysis of energy demand and associated greenhouse gas emissions https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50774 Mon 29 Jan 2024 18:43:23 AEDT ]]> Alcoholic chlorhexidine skin preparation or triclosan-coated sutures to reduce surgical site infection: a systematic review and meta-analysis of high-quality randomised controlled trials https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53157 Mon 27 Nov 2023 15:05:30 AEDT ]]> Prevalence of Australians exposed to potentially cardiotoxic cancer medicines: a population-based cohort study https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:52532 Mon 16 Oct 2023 16:35:24 AEDT ]]> Progress in health among regions of Ethiopia, 1990–2019: a subnational country analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2019 https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:51594 Mon 11 Sep 2023 15:59:43 AEST ]]> Overall survival with [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 versus cabazitaxel in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (TheraP): secondary outcomes of a randomised, open-label, phase 2 trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54742 Mon 11 Mar 2024 14:26:03 AEDT ]]> Measles vaccine still saves children's lives https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:23890 Fri 28 Oct 2016 16:21:32 AEDT ]]> Key Lessons From the COVID-19 Public Health Response in Australia https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50581 Fri 28 Jul 2023 14:36:39 AEST ]]> Quantifying risks and interventions that have affected the burden of lower respiratory infections among children younger than 5 years: an analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2017 https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:46571 Fri 25 Nov 2022 11:47:21 AEDT ]]> Differential diagnosis of suspected multiple sclerosis: an updated consensus approach https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53044 Fri 17 Nov 2023 11:47:33 AEDT ]]> Health4Life eHealth intervention to modify multiple lifestyle risk behaviours among adolescent students in Australia: a cluster-randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53115 Fri 17 Nov 2023 11:27:53 AEDT ]]> Food addiction and mental health in adolescents: a systematic review https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:39704 Fri 17 Jun 2022 16:56:05 AEST ]]> Balancing the needs of the many and the few: where next for adult asthma guidelines? https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:49414 Fri 12 May 2023 15:02:09 AEST ]]> Use of anastrozole for breast cancer prevention (IBIS-II): long-term results of randomised controlled trial https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:41264 vs 165 cases, hazard ratio [HR] 0·51, 95% CI 0·39–0·66, p<0·0001). The reduction was larger in the first 5 years (35 vsvsvs 70, HR 0·96, 95% CI 0·69–1·34, p=0·82) or for breast cancer (two anastrozole vs three placebo). A significant decrease in non-breast cancers was observed for anastrozole (147 vs 200, odds ratio 0·72, 95% CI 0·57–0·91, p=0·0042), owing primarily to non-melanoma skin cancer. No excess of fractures or cardiovascular disease was observed. Interpretation: This analysis has identified a significant continuing reduction in breast cancer with anastrozole in the post-treatment follow-up period, with no evidence of new late side-effects.
