Linking biomarkers with healthy lifestyle outcomes after stroke: Supplementary Results of a 12-month Randomized Controlled Trial
Participation in a healthy lifestyle intervention such as the Diabetes Prevention Program Group Lifestyle Balance –adapted for stroke (GLB-CVA) may reduce stroke burden. Identifying biomarkers associated with lifestyle changes may enhance an individualized approach to stroke recovery. We investigated metabolic biomarkers related to cardiovascular and neurological function in individuals with stroke in the GLB -CVA study and healthy (non-stroke) individuals.
