متن کاملStatistical analysis plan for the ‘Triple Antiplatelets for Reducing Dependency after Ischaemic Stroke’ (TARDIS) trial
RATIONALE Antiplatelet agents such as aspirin, clopidogrel and dipyridamole are effective in reducing the risk of recurrence after a stroke. Importantly, the risk of recurrence is highest immediately after the index event while antiplatelets cause bleeding. AIMS AND/OR HYPOTHESIS The 'Triple Antiplatelets for Reducing Dependency after Ischaemic Stroke' (TARDIS) trial is testing whether short-...
