This was despite a long gap between the stroke and the treatment. It was previously thought once the brain is damaged, it doesn't recover. Scientists involved in the study now believe that isn't true.
Overall, the development of post-stroke depression can play a significant role in a patient's recovery from a stroke.

The primary goal was to develop a soft exoskeleton capable of reducing the metabolic cost of these activities, thereby providing a breakthrough in human augmentation technology. [14] The early prototypes of BLEEX showcased the integration of flexible materials and actuation systems, marking a departure from the more rigid exoskeleton designs of ...
Remote ischemic conditioning (RIC) is an experimental medical procedure that aims to reduce the severity of ischaemic injury to an organ such as the heart or the brain, most commonly in the situation of a heart attack or a stroke, or during procedures such as heart surgery when the heart may temporary suffer ischaemia during the operation, by triggering the body's natural protection against ...
