Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 11
Abstract
Stroke is a clinical syndrome of rapid onset of focal cerebral deficit, lasting more than 24 hours or leading to death, with no apparent cause other than a vascular. Bilirubin, a breakdown product of normal heme catabolism is found that in acute phase of cerebrovascular because of its antioxidant property prevents the oxidation process leading to damage of brain. In this study we correlate the total Bilirubin levels in patients with cerebrovascular accident and age and sex matched controls.
