Preliminary findings of external counterpulsation for ischemic stroke patient with large artery occlusive disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE:We have previously shown that 17beta-estradiol reduces infarction volume in female rats. The present study determined whether single injection or chronic implantation of estrogen confers neuroprotection in male animals with middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and whether there is an interacti...
