... of MLC601 was sustained over 2 years which supports the hypothesis that MLC601 combined with rehabilitation might have beneficial and sustained effects on neuro-repair processes after stroke. There is a need for more data on the effect of combining rehabilitation programs with stroke recovery treatments...

... time points (p = 0.041), indicating reduced connectivity to the remainder of the brain. Conclusions: These findings highlight the importance of remote brain areas, such as the contralesional thalamus, in stroke recovery. Similar methods have the potential to be used in the prediction of stroke outcome...

An emerging concept is that combinational or ‘cocktail' therapies are more effective than single interventions in improving stroke recovery. Among these, one of the most...
