The Variation of Movement Related Cortical Potential, Cortico-cortical Inhibition, and Motor Evoked Potential in Intracerebral Implantation of Antologous Peripheral Blood Stem Cells(CD34)in Old Ischemic Stroke

China Medical University Hospital36 enrolled

Overview

Stem cell theray in old stroke patients is a study to treat stroke patients approved before in our hospital. We recruit these patients who received stem cell therapy and completed the study. We adopted movement-related cortical potential,and cortico-cortical inhibition to assess the stroke patients with or without stem cell therapy. Further analyzing the correlation of the motor related cortical potential and cortico-cortical inhibition among them. We wanted to find out if there are changes in cortical excitability in subjects with chronic stroke after stem cell therapy.
