Didn't your doctor and hospital put together a protocol on these for your recovery? I guess not; their incompetence is immense.

Effectiveness of Injection of Ginkgo biloba Leaf Extract Combined with Early Rehabilitation on Functional Recovery in Patients Following Ischemic Stroke
Background:
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether
Gastrodin can activate the Notch 1 signaling pathway in the ischemic
brain area to produce neuroprotective effects against cerebral
ischemia-reperfusion injury, and to elucidate the role of Notch 1 and
NF-κB
signaling pathways in the Gastrodin-induced cerebral ischemic tolerance.
Material and methods:
The focal cerebral ischemia reperfusion model of
middle cerebral artery embolism was established. TTC staining was
applied to detect cerebral infarction. Tunel/NeuN immunofluorescence
double labeling
was employed to detect apoptosis. WB was used to detect the expressions
of proteins related to the Notch 1 and NF-κB pathways.
Results:
Gastrodin can reduce neuron apoptosis in hippocampus after MCAO/R
injury. After DAPT blocked Notch 1 signaling, the neuroprotective
effects
of Gastrodin improving neural function score, reducing cerebral
infarction volume, and inhibiting neuronal apoptosis, were all reversed.
Compared with the MCAO/R group, DAPT blocking Notch 1 signaling can
also improve the neurological score of rats after MCAO/R injury, reduce
cerebral infarct
volume, and reduce neuronal apoptosis. Gastrodin can activate Notch 1
and NF-κB signaling pathways in cerebral ischemic areas and
increase the expression of related proteins. After DAPT inhibited the
Notch 1 signaling in the ipsilateral brain region, the phosphorylation
level
was significantly decreased, indicating that the activity of the NF-κB pathway was regulated by the Notch 1 signaling.
Conclusion:
Gastrodin-mediated protection against cerebral ischemia-reperfusion
injury is related to the activation of Notch 1 signaling and the
up-regulation
of NF-κB signaling pathway activity in neurons of ischemic brain area.
