Rationale and concerns for using JAK inhibitors in axial spondyloarthritis by Ahmed, S, Yesudian, R, Ubaide, H, Coates, LC

“…Treatments for individual patients need to be tailored to whichever organ is inflamed at that point in time but should also consider the presence of other inflamed organs, comorbidities, long-term safety and cost. axSpA is a treatable condition where low disease activity or remission should be the target in most patients. …”

Controversies in neurology: asymptomatic carotid stenosis—intervention or just stick to medical therapy. The argument for carotid endarterectomy by Hirt, L, Halliday, A

“…Carotid endarterectomy, on the other hand, has been shown to reduce the incidence of ipsilateral ischaemic stroke in both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients, with the benefits extending into the long-term. Carotid angioplasty and stenting is a newer technique with the benefit of being minimally invasive. …”

Dynamic linkages of Asian stock markets by Baharumshah, Ahmad Zubaidi, Sarmidi, Tamat, Tan, Hui Boon

“…This study examines the dynamic interrelationship among the major stock markets and in the four Asian markets (Malaysia, Thailand, Taiwan and South Korea), both in the short run and in the long run. To investigate the impact of financial reforms and the Asian financial crisis on these markets, we split the sample into three sub-periods: pre-liberalization (1988-91), post-liberalization (1992-96) and post-crisis (1997-99) periods. …”
