Useful rehabilitative methods in stroke rats and the mechanisms of functional recovery

开展中风患者的物理治疗方法学研究具有重要意义。我们考察了一些运动的效果，如跑步机运动、特技运动技能训练和强迫肢体使用。各种康复方法均能有效地促进脑成形性改变患者的功能恢复。另一方面，我们还观察了跑台运动对脑梗塞大鼠的预防作用和改善记忆功能的作用。

It is very important to develop the methodology of physical therapy for stroke patients. We examined the effects of some kinds of exercise, as treadmill exercise, acrobatic motor skill training, and forced limb use. Each rehabilitative method was effective to enhance the functional recovery by the brain plastic changes. On the other hands, we showed the effects to prevent from brain infarction and to improve memory function by treadmill exercise in rat model of infarction
