Abstract

This study was aimed at evaluating the EEG effects of acutely and chronically administered protirelin tartrate in patients with acute and chronic cerebrovascular disease by traditional and computerized analysis of cerebral electric activity. Our data showed: a) TRH-T did not induce EEG abnormalities; b) acute and chronic administration of TRH-T increased alpha frequency band and decreased delta and theta activities.
