Neuroprotection in Stroke: Past, Present, and Future

Which of these suggested solutions is your doctor working on solving? It has already been 18 months your doctor should have some answers by now. The key takeaway from this is: Is your doctor or hospital doing ANYTHING to follow up on solving these problems? ANYTHING AT ALL? WHY ARE YOU WAITING FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM?
Neuroprotection in Stroke: Past, Present, and Future
They do talk in here about reactive oxygen species which might be alleviated by

Ceria nanoparticles could lessen the damage from ischemic strokes

or maybe carbon monoxide as discussed here:

cool picture from there:
Damaging inflammatory mechanisms in stroke. Proinflammatory cytokines and reactive oxygen species released by damaged neurons lead to the activation of microglia and the expression of cellular adhesion molecules on endothelial cells and migrating inflammatory cells. Infiltrating inflammatory cells and activated microglia secrete additional cytokines and oxygen species, resulting in further tissue damage, oxidative stress, and activation of matrix metalloproteinases leading to disruption of the blood-brain barrier and edema.
