What does this source report?
No significant overall between-group motor difference was found; a severe-impairment subgroup showed a favorable signal.
- Population and setting
- 70 subacute stroke patients randomized 35 per group
- Evidence type
- Randomized trial
- Preparation
- Porcine brain-derived peptide mixture; equivalence to other hydrolysates is not assumed
- Source language
- Indexed English abstract; original language varies
- Title provenance
- Title as recorded in the linked source or index. A separate original-language title has not been transcribed unless shown above.
What are the limitations?
- Subgroup findings should not replace the overall result or be generalized to all stroke patients.
Publication counts are not counts of independent trials. Reviews, translations and reports sharing participants may overlap. Findings apply to the studied preparation, population and endpoints.
