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.

Parkinson's May Start in the Gut and Spread to the Brain, New Study Suggests

 

 Because of your risk of Parkinsons post stroke your doctor is required to create protocols to optimize the gut microbiome and prevent that from happening.

Parkinson's May Start in the Gut and Spread to the Brain, New Study Suggests

What role might the gut microbiome play in Parkinson's disease? A new study published in Nature Communications adds to the growing body of research linking gut microbiome health to neurodegeneration. The stool samples of 490 people with Parkinson's disease and 234 "control" healthy individuals were examined to compare microbial DNA, which was then sequenced to see which microbial features were present or elevated in the Parkinson's fecal samples vs the control samples.

One of the results of this study showed the Parkinson's fecal samples were lower in anti-inflammatory short-chain fatty acids and, interestingly, elevated in what is usually considered "good" probiotics such as Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium. So what does this mean? The researchers have generated significant new data about the gut microbiome of people with Parkinson's, which could open the door to further studies, research, and treatments for a condition that currently has no cure.

"PD-associated species form polymicrobial clusters that grow or shrink together, and some compete. PD microbiome is disease permissive, evidenced by overabundance of pathogens and immunogenic components, dysregulated neuroactive signaling, preponderance of molecules that induce alpha-synuclein pathology, and over-production of toxicants; with the reduction in anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective factors limiting the capacity to recover," reads the study abstract, making the important point that this new data is confirming in humans what was previously known only through animal (mice) studies. What else do we know about Parkinson's and gut health? Here is what the experts have to say.
