Statin use and outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage: case-control study and meta-analysis.

abstract：:Significant evidence has accrued suggesting that antibodies to voltage-gated calcium channel are observed in at least some patients with sporadic ALS (SALS) and that such antibodies alter the function of these ion channels in vitro and in vivo. Further, passive transfer of these immunoglobulin-containing fractions int...
