No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This observational study aims to detect levels of iron, alpha-synuclein, and soluble lymphocyte activation gene 3 in acute ischemic stroke patients. And to see expressions of iron, alpha-synuclein, and lymphocyte activation gene 3 in the brain tissue of ischemic rats. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is there an association between iron and alpha-synuclein accumulation in ischemic stroke?
* Is there any change in soluble lymphocyte activation gene levels in ischemic stroke and if these levels are related to stroke severity and infarction size? . Can soluble lymphocyte activation gene levels be used as an early biomarker to diagnose ischemic stroke?
