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.

Relationship Between Exercise and Alzheimer’s Disease: A Narrative Literature Review

With your excellent chance of getting dementia your doctor is required to get you recovered enough to do higher physical activity levels. YOUR DOCTOR'S RESPONSIBILITY. Don't let them weasel out of that responsibility, you need exact protocols, NOT GUIDELINES. 

Your chances of getting dementia.


1. A documented 33% dementia chance post-stroke from an Australian study?   May 2012.


2. Then this study came out and seems to have a range from 17-66%. December 2013.


3. A 20% chance in this research.   July 2013.


4. Dementia Risk Doubled in Patients Following Stroke September 2018 


5. Parkinson’s Disease May Have Link to Stroke March 2017

This narrative review aimed to summarize evidence regarding the responses to exercise among patients with preclinical Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and the effectiveness of long-term exercise interventions in improving cognitive function and neuropsychiatric symptoms. We performed a narrative review of existing literature on the effectiveness of long-term exercise interventions in improving cognitive function and neuropsychiatric symptoms in patients with AD. Patients with AD who presented with long-term exercise interventions appeared to have improved blood flow, increased hippocampal volume, and improved neurogenesis. Most prospective studies have proven that physical inactivity is one of the most common preventable risk factors for developing AD and that higher physical activity levels are associated with a reduced risk of AD development. Physical exercise seems to be effective in improving several neuropsychiatric symptoms of AD, notably cognitive function. Compared with medications, exercise has been shown to have fewer side effects and better adherence.

Background

Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by memory loss and multiple cognitive disorders (Reddy and Oliver, 2019). This symptom is the most frequent cause of neurogenesis. Individuals with AD develop progressive mild cognitive impairment (MCI), leading to the development of neuropsychiatric manifestations. Agitation and anxiousness are common complications in individuals diagnosed with AD. Other complications such as bladder and bowel problems, depression, infection, and head trauma or broken bones are the main cause of imbalance and incoordination in these patients (Higuera, 2016).
Alzheimer’s disease is associated with common causes of dementia and is estimated to account for 60–80% of these cases (Alzheimer’s Association [AA], 2016). Aging can be treated as the greatest risk factor for AD progression. About 81% of AD patients are aged over 75 years as estimated by the Alzheimer’s Association [AA], 2016). The diagnosis and treatment of AD involves many challenges. Studies have shown that drug combinations are effective and that there is no efficient treatment for patients diagnosed with preclinical AD or MCI. With respect to the definition of MCI, it is regarded as a syndrome of cognitive decline that is higher than the expectation of the age of individual and level of education without significantly obstructing with daily living activities. Notably, it develops into AD during 5 years in over half of the MCI patients (Gauthier et al., 2006). Based on the possibility of side effects of drugs, people are very interested in the non-pharmacological treatment of AD (Raggi et al., 2017).
Inconsistent benefits of treatments, comprising cognitive training and cognitive stimulation, have been reported. There is an intension to prevent and treat AD, MCI, and dementia via regular exercise (Laurin et al., 2001; Lindsay et al., 2002; Andel et al., 2008). This article aims to review important studies with this scope and consider the association of exercise and AD in patients.

  1. This is right. A permanent cure to bring back the strength to her paralyzed side is yet to happen. Though she is able to do her daily routines of her own she is confided inside home and seldom goes out.
