Epigenetics in Stroke Recovery
While the death rate from stroke has continually decreased due to interventions in the hyperacute stage of the disease, long-term disability and institutionalization have become common sequelae in the aftermath of stroke. Therefore, identification of new molecular pathways that could be targeted to improve neurological recovery among survivors of stroke is crucial. Epigenetic mechanisms such as...
متن کاملNeuroaid in stroke recovery.
condition dictated ( table 2 ). The Neuroaid dose received was 4 tablets, 3 times per day. Treatment was initiated between 1 week and 6 months after stroke, and given to each patient for 2–3 months. Cases presented with neurological impairments affecting motor, balance, speech and visual functions. These were assessed during initial examination and confirmed with imagery ( table 1 ). The patien...
متن کاملConstraint-induced movement therapy for motor recovery after stroke.
A new therapeutic approach to rehabilitation of movement after stroke, termed Constraint-Induced (CI) Movement Therapy, has been derived from basic research with monkeys given somatosensory deafferentation. CI consists of a family of therapies; their common element is that they induce stroke patients to greatly increase the use of a more affected upper extremity for many hours a day over a 10-1...
متن کاملFunctional electrical stimulation-induced neural changes and recovery after stroke.
Rehabilitation as a treatment approach to affect neural remodeling or ''plasticity'' of the injured brain is gaining increasing attention and appreciation. While rehabilitation continues to emphasize re-establishment of functional abilities, the approach of neurorehabilitation attempts to improve recovery by impacting on changes within the central nervous system rather than reliance on compensa...
متن کاملFunctional imaging in stroke recovery.
Assessing neurobiology of brain systems can provide information not available from anatomic or behavioral assessment. Such information may be of value in understanding, defining, and prescribing potential therapeutic interventions that target restorative brain events after stroke. A number of methods have been used to study stroke recovery, each with its relative merits and limitations. Several...
