The aim of this study was to assess which type of HT independently affects clinical outcome. Methods—We used the data set of the European Cooperative Acute Stroke Study (ECASS) II ...

In healthy humans and other animals, behavioral activity exhibits scale invariance over multiple timescales from minutes to 24 h, whereas in aging or diseased conditions, scale invariance is usually reduced significantly. Accordingly, scale invariance can be a potential marker for health. Given compelling indications that exercise is beneficial for mental and physical health, we tested to what ...
