Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP), one of the most common infectious complications after stroke, is increasingly recognized as a major contributor to mortality and poor neurological outcomes after ICH. Emerging evidence from studies of stroke-induced immunosuppression and the lung-brain axis suggests that SAP is not merely a...
