abstract：:Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) is an emerging target in acute ischemic stroke. Early pre-hospital treatment with ROCK inhibitors may improve their efficacy, but their antithrombotic effects raise safety concerns in hemorrhagic stroke, precluding use prior to neuroimaging. Therefore, we tested whether ROCK inhibition aff...
