Among patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis for moderate ischaemic stroke, initiation of oral DAPT within 6 h of onset improved the likelihood of excellent functional outcomes at 90 days.

The world needs WHO. This should be an unambiguous and uncontroversial statement. But it is not. There are signals that WHO's perceived value has eroded, and that its central position in the international system for health is under threat. Some critiques of the organisation have been politically natured, but that should not inhibit debate over legitimate concerns: WHO's lack of agility, insufficient transparency in key processes and decision making, and the absence of a clear narrative of the indispensable benefit the agency provides to the world.

It is referred to as the eyelash sign and denotes the inability to fully conceal the eyelashes during attempted forceful bilateral eye closure.2
