ABSTRACT

Stroke remains a leading cause of disability and mortality all over the world despite the efforts made towards improving treatment. Most of the clinical studies have not shown signifi cant benefi cial effects in the evaluation of various molecules for their neuroprotection and neurorecovery promoting properties.
