Sex differences in first-ever acute stroke.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:There is evidence of unequal access to health care interventions even where universal health systems operate. We investigated associations between patients' sociodemographic characteristics and the provision of acute and longer-term stroke care in a multiethnic urban population. METHODS:We used ...
