A Harmonized Target for Recovery After Stroke
نویسندگان
چکیده
It is now appreciated that emerging therapeutic strategies for recovery must include the cerebral vasculature and that induction of angiogenesis will stimulate endogenous recovery mechanisms, including neurogenesis, synaptogenesis, and neuronal and synaptic plasticity. These events are all involved in the long-term repair and restoration process of the brain after an ischemic event. Several recent excellent reviews provided detailed information on the mechanisms and molecular targets for angiogenesis after stroke.1,2 The purpose of this review is to evaluate the evidence that angiogenesis is a target for recovery after an ischemic stroke.

Effect of Mirror Therapy on the Motor Recovery in Patients After Stroke: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Objectives: One of the most important problems seen in patients after stroke is that they cannot develop normal muscle strength. In recent years, the use of Mirror Therapy (MT) in the recovery of this condition has been noticed in different studies. This study investigated the effect of MT on motor recovery in patients after stroke. Methods: In this clinical trial, 93 patients were divided int...
متن کاملImpact of Mild Hypothermia on the Recovery of Patients with Acute Stroke
Background and Objective: Hypothermia induction has been proposed to improve the recovery process of stroke in the last two decades. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of mild hypothermia on the recovery of patients with acute stroke. Materials and Methods: This single-blind randomized clinical trial was conducted on 60 patients with acute stroke in 2018 in Hamadan,...
متن کاملNeuroplasticity and neuromotor synergies in context of rehabilitation after stroke: a systematic review
Background: Alterations of neuroplasticity and cortical excitability are important pathophysiological factors in stroke. Modulation of the neuroplasticity has been proposed as an underlying mechanism of recovery in different neurological disorders. But it is not still clear how the CNS faces the complexity of muscle control. Neuroplastic processes may be used for the functional improvement of s...

متن کاملDrugs to Enhance Motor Recovery After Stroke.
Abstract—Among the therapeutic strategies under study to improve long-term outcome after stroke are drugs targeting events that underlie recovery. Drugs that enhance recovery are separate from those that promote neuroprotection or reperfusion in patients with stroke. Recovery-based drugs have distinct therapeutic targets that are related to plasticity and growth after stroke, and in general, im...
