Influence of beta-blocker therapy on the risk of infections and death in patients at high risk for stroke induced immunodepression. [PDF]
Stroke-induced immunodepression is a well characterized complication of acute ischemic stroke. In experimental studies beta-blocker therapy reversed stroke-induced immunodepression, reduced infection rates and mortality.

Impact of Renal Impairment on Beta-Blocker Efficacy in Patients With Heart Failure. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Moderate and moderately severe renal impairment are common in patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction, but whether beta-blockers are effective is unclear, leading to underuse of life-saving therapy.

Effect of beta-blocker therapy on the risk of infections and death after acute stroke--a historical cohort study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND:Infections are a frequent cause for prolonged hospitalization and increased mortality after stroke. Recent studies revealed a stroke-induced depression of the peripheral immune system associated with an increased susceptibility for infections.

Beta‐blocker use and mortality among patients with systolic heart failure and pacemaker rhythm
Aims Beta‐blockers are proven to improve survival among patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Their efficacy in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction and pacemaker devices has not been demonstrated.
