Aspirin use is associated with decreased initial stroke severity in patients with acute ischemic stroke: Pilot study (P6.293)

Acetylation of additional proteins will be studied in an attempt to identify patients who respond best to aspirin.Disclosure: Dr. Jensen has nothing to disclose. Dr. Leonard has nothing to disclose.
