Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The efficacy of rehabilitation in ischemic stroke patients likely varies because of brain plasticity. One of the main neurotrophins in the central nervous system is brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). OBJECTIVES: This study aimed to determine allelic and genotypic distribution of BDNF-196 G>A and -270 C>T polymorphisms, and to assess the impact of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation...
