Those efforts led to the founding of the Dr. Trueta Foundation, named after the famous Catalan doctor, Josep Trueta, an orthopedics and trauma specialist who, during the Spanish civil war, invented a medical procedure to minimize infections from shrapnel wounds caused by the pro-Franco aerial bombing of Barcelona and other cities in Catalonia.

El Dr. Trueta ens mostrà la seva instal·lació a Oxford i amb tota naturalitat ens explicà que a l'acabament de la Guerra Civil Espanyola, el 1939, li havien ofert un professorat a Caracas amb unes condicions avantatjoses.
Succintament el mètode d'en Trueta per tractar una fractura de guerra consistia en rentar bé la ferida amb aigua i sabó, fer una incisió quirúrgica profunda remoguent del tot els teixits morts, drenatge i immobilització amb embenat de guix.
En Josep Trueta tenia un nombre gegantí de condecoracions, títols "honoris causa," etc. Només vull remarcar que a l'octubre del 1966 fou guardonat amb el Premi Pere Virgili i Antoni Gimbernat de l'Associació de Cirurgia de Barcelona.

 Analysis finds drug improves odds of complete stroke recovery
DALLAS, Oct. 25 – A drug that protects the brain from injury during ischemic stroke can significantly increase the chance of complete recovery, researchers report in a meta-analysis published in today’s rapid access issue of Stroke: Journal of the American Heart Association.
“If the results we have obtained are replicated in a large prospective trial, the neuroprotective drug, citicoline, may revolutionize the treatment of acute stroke,” says the study’s senior author Antoni Dávalos, M.D., Ph.D., chairman of the department of neurology at Hospital Universitari de Girona Doctor Josep Trueta in Girona, Spain.
Neuroprotectants are drugs that potentially could stop stroke damage and improve recovery.  However, no neuroprotective drug has been proved to be effective.  That may be because most studies had too few patients to show positive results, Dávalos says.
