Description
In this EBM round-up, Carl Heneghan, Helen Macdonald and Duncan Jarvies are back to give you an update
Dual vs single therapy for prevention of TIA or minor stroke - how does the advice that dual work better translate in the UK?
Carl explains why Japan can teach us to get active and, how GPs can use that information to "drop a decade" in aging.
Finally, Helen took some time to relax over Christmas - until she read a story in the Christmas edition about gender discrimination in medicine, and it reminded her of her time on the ward.
