@article{Gorbachevskaya2001CerebrolysinTI, title={Cerebrolysin therapy in Rett syndrome: clinical and EEG mapping study}, author={N. Gorbachevskaya and V. Bashina and Vitali V. Gratchev and A. Iznak}, journal={Brain and Development}, year={2001}, volume={23}, pages={s90-s93} }
Based on the suggestion that nerve growth factor plays a core role in the brain maturation process, which is altered in Rett syndrome, we investigate the influence of Cerebrolysin--the brain-derived peptidergic drug - on motor and higher cortical functions in Rett syndrome girls. The open pilot study was performed on nine Rett syndrome girls (aged from 2 years and 2 months to 7 years and 6 months) at stage 3 of the illness, and included both clinical and quantitative EEG evaluations before and… CONTINUE READING
