RESEARCH CENTER HIGHLIGHTS

Updated Review Strengthens
Understanding of Cervical Artery Dissection Risks

Parker University is proud to highlight a significant update to the 2005 review on risk factors for Cervical Artery Dissection.

 

This crucial research, which will help inform clinical practice and enhance patient safety, was made possible by the collaborative effort of an international team of experts. We commend the authors for their dedication to this vital area of study.

 

The inclusion of studies with healthy control groups allowed for a more robust and accurate analysis, representing a major step forward in this field.

 

Congratulations to the full author team on this important publication: Dr. Sidney Rubinstein, Dr. Debbie Wright, Dr. Katie Pohlman, Dr. Robert Rosenbaum, Dr. Barbara Hutten, Dr. Wendy Scholten-Peeters, Dr. Scott Haldeman, and Dr. Hans Ket. Learn more about the study here.
