Molecular mechanisms of oxidative stress in stroke and cancer
Oxidative stress is a silent participant in all chronic progressive pathology and degenerative disorders. Neurodegeneration and cognitive impairment are caused by increased imbalanced oxidative stress and down-regulated natural anti-oxidant combat ...

Ocular Dominance Plasticity after Stroke Was Preserved in PSD-95 Knockout Mice. [PDF]
Neuronal plasticity is essential to enable rehabilitation when the brain suffers from injury, such as following a stroke. One of the most established models to study cortical plasticity is ocular dominance (OD) plasticity in the primary visual cortex (V1)

Trunk Control and Lesion Locations According to Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score in Acute Stroke: A Cross-Sectional Study [PDF]
Background: Stroke is a leading cause of disability in elderly people. Lesion location and size, and trunk control early after stroke have been found predictive of functional outcome. Trunk control is an important aspect of postural control, and commonly
