Background: The risk of recurrence following ischaemic stroke (IS) or transient ischaemic attack (TIA) is highest immediately after the event. Antiplatelet agents are effective in reducing the risk of recurrence and two agents are superior to one in...

Background Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) mobilises endogenous haematopoietic stem cells and enhances recovery in experimental stroke. Recovery may also be dependent on an enriched environment and physical activity. G-CSF may have the...
