Verbatim
“This is something researchers have been working toward for decades. This trial marks a major step toward safer and more effective long-term treatment for stroke prevention.”
“Asundexian reduced the occurrence of a stroke by 26 per cent, and this benefit was consistent across patients of different ages, sexes, stroke severity, and stroke causes, without increasing major bleeding or other serious side effects.”

Recent UK press coverage of their topics, not necessarily citing them directly.
Professors, researchers and think-tank analysts quoted on the strength of their research rather than a clinical role. Citations are counted by an automated scan of UK press coverage and may be incomplete. Roles, biographies and contact details are researched and human-reviewed before they appear here; anything not yet reviewed is simply absent rather than shown unverified.
