Perspective Treatment Goals for Brain Protection in Case of Acute Ischemia

Abstract. Ischemic stroke initiates a cascade of biochemical reactions, among which the processes of free radical oxidation occupy a key place. The most important place in management this disease takes reperfusion therapy, the conduct of which is closely related to the problem of neuroprotection. Use of antioxidants is a promising direction for the treatment of ischemic stroke. They have antioxidant effects and could prevent free radical processes. Edaravone is a new low molecular weight free radical scavenger, which inhibits the ischemic cascade. The article provides an overview of studies on the effectiveness and safety of edaravone in patients with ischemic stroke.

Key words: ischemia of brain, neuroprotection, reperfusion, ischemic cascade, edaravone.

The importance of non-motor symptoms in the clinical picture of motor neuron disease

Non-motor symptoms are an obligate sign of motor neuron disease and can often serve as a rather sensitive indicator of the general functional state of ALS patients. Gastrointestinal disorders, weight loss, pain, sweating and anxiety prevail in the structure of non-motor symptoms in ALS patients. The presence of non-motor symptoms in patients indicates the multisystemic...
