[Articles] Efficacy of nitric oxide, with or without continuing antihypertensive treatment, for management of high blood pressure in acute stroke (ENOS): a partial-factorial randomised controlled trial

We show no evidence to support continuing prestroke antihypertensive drugs in patients in the first few days after acute stroke.
