About

This study aim to retrospectively investigate the effects of the magnesium, vitamin D, and uric acid serum markers on motor recovery and ambulation in post-stroke patients.

Full description

Stroke is the sudden loss of neurological function associated with a reduction or cessation of blood flow in the brain, resulting from the blockage or rupture of cerebral vessels. Stroke is the second leading cause of death and the third leading cause of disability worldwide. Regaining motor recovery and ambulation skills in patients is one of the main goals of rehabilitation. It is critical for patients to improve their quality of life and regain their independence. Serum biochemical markers can be used to predict post-stroke recovery. Serum magnesium, vitamin D, and uric acid are biochemical markers that may play a role in the recovery process of stroke patients.

This study aim to retrospectively investigate the effects of the magnesium, vitamin D, and uric acid serum markers on motor recovery and ambulation in post-stroke patients.
