Changing stroke rehab and research worldwide now.Time is Brain! trillions and trillions of neurons that DIE each day because there are NO effective hyperacute therapies besides tPA(only 12% effective). I have 523 posts on hyperacute therapy, enough for researchers to spend decades proving them out. These are my personal ideas and blog on stroke rehabilitation and stroke research. Do not attempt any of these without checking with your medical provider. Unless you join me in agitating, when you need these therapies they won't be there.

What this blog is for:

My blog is not to help survivors recover, it is to have the 10 million yearly stroke survivors light fires underneath their doctors, stroke hospitals and stroke researchers to get stroke solved. 100% recovery. The stroke medical world is completely failing at that goal, they don't even have it as a goal. Shortly after getting out of the hospital and getting NO information on the process or protocols of stroke rehabilitation and recovery I started searching on the internet and found that no other survivor received useful information. This is an attempt to cover all stroke rehabilitation information that should be readily available to survivors so they can talk with informed knowledge to their medical staff. It lays out what needs to be done to get stroke survivors closer to 100% recovery. It's quite disgusting that this information is not available from every stroke association and doctors group.

Jocks beat bookworms on brain test

This can probably be explained by the neurogenesis created by exercize.
Peter Levine also proposes that;  Jim Thorpe. The World's Smartest Man?

The study demonstrates a possible outcome of the increased cortical thickness that has been found in areas of trained athletes’ brains. It also offers researchers new avenues for exploring the treatment of people who have issues with attention, such as the elderly.

  1. Asking subjects to imagine an object moving through space is hardly a univeral test of intelligence. I think this task gives athletes an unfair advantage over college students which biases the results.

  2. I bet if they added a subset of "gamers" they would completly outperform both groups...intelligence??? Or just evidence of too much wasted time in front of the screen??
