Modern Management of Asymptomatic Carotid Stenosis: A Meta‐Analysis of CREST‐2, SPACE‐2, and ECST‐2
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Recent randomized trials (CREST‐2, SPACE‐2, and ECST‐2) have compared carotid revascularization (carotid endarterectomy [CEA] or carotid artery stenting [CAS]) plus contemporary medical therapy (CMT) versus CMT alone in asymptomatic carotid stenosis.

The Marginal Pricing Rule in Economies with Infinitely Many Commodities [PDF]
In this paper, we consider an economy with infinitely many commodities and non-convex production sets. We propose a definition of the marginal pricing rule which allows us to encompass the case of smooth and convex production sets.

Global Rather Than Vertical‐Selective Saccadic Abnormalities in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To test whether vertical saccades are preferentially affected in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Methods PSP patients (n = 24) were compared to age‐matched controls (n = 94) and two degenerative groups (Alzheimer's disease, n = 20; Lewy body disease, n = 50).
