Early Dysphagia Screening by Trained Nurses Reduces Pneumonia Rate in Stroke Patients: A Clinical Intervention Study.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:Because the diagnosis and treatment of carotid artery disease may reduce the rate of stroke, the aim of this study was to determine whether a diet intervention was associated with incident carotid artery disease. METHODS:Participants were 48 835 postmenopausal women aged 50 to 79 years who were ...
