Description
Summary:The problem of searching for the prognostic factors for recovery of motor dysfunction following stroke is very relevant because of the high prevalence of acute cerebrovascular events. The severe disabling sequelae of stroke are associated with the enormous economic burden all over the world, which is aggravated by the lack of customized approaches to rehabilitation with allowance for the clinical data and neuroplastic features of the brain of each individual patient. Although modern diagnostic tools, including neuroimaging, have been introduced, many potential predictors of recovery of functions lost following a cerebrovascular accident still remain to be elucidated or refined. The best-studied prognostic factors for recovery of the functions lost following ischemic stroke are reviewed in this article.
