Recent advances in diagnoses, management, and rehabilitation have had a significant impact to reduce mortality and functional recovery in stroke patients. In spite of these medical advances, many stroke survivors still suffer from significant disabilities. Stroke is a complex disease caused by a combination of multiple risk factors. Therefore, personalized medicine is more important than any other field to overcome the limitations of current stroke management and rehabilitation. It is necessary to apply accurate evaluation for functions and a personalized approach in consideration of various characteristics of each stroke patient to improve function. The objective of this Special Issue is to inform the recent scientific knowledge, current limitations, and challenges for an individually tailored strategy in the areas of diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of stroke. A multidisciplinary approach and research will be strongly encouraged for personalized medicine in the field of stroke treatment and rehabilitation.
诊断、管理和康复方面的最新进展对降低中风患者的死亡率和促进功能恢复产生了重大影响。尽管有这些医学进步，但许多中风幸存者仍有严重残疾。中风是一种由多种风险因素共同作用引起的复杂疾病。因此，相较于其他任何领域，个性化医疗对于克服当前中风管理和康复的局限性更为重要。有必要针对功能进行准确评估，并考虑每位中风患者的各种特征采取个性化方法来改善功能。本期特刊的目的是介绍中风诊断、治疗和康复领域中个性化策略的最新科学知识、当前局限性及挑战。在中风治疗和康复领域，将大力鼓励采用多学科方法和研究来实现个性化医疗。
