Does statin in combination with β-blocker therapy reduce postoperative stroke after coronary artery bypass graft surgery?
Beta-blockers combined with statin confer a protective effect for stroke after CABG.
The use of an aiming device for distal locking of a tibia nail lengthens operation time rather than reducing it. Fluoroscopy was still needed in about half of the cases. No difference was seen in clinical outcomes. The use of a distal aiming device to lock a tibial nail appears to have no benefit.
