Multitargeted effects of statin-enhanced thrombolytic therapy for stroke with recombinant human tissue-type plasminogen activator in the rat.

abstract：BACKGROUND:It is unknown whether the appropriate use of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) has improved over time and whether trends in PCI appropriateness have been accompanied by changes in the use of PCI. METHODS AND RESULTS:We applied appropriate use criteria to determine the appropriateness of all 51 872 PC...
