Ischemic stroke, the most prevalent form of stroke, leads to neurological impairment due to cerebral ischemia and affects 55–90% of the population. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays a crucial role in the central nervous system and regulates cardiometabolic risk factors, including lipids...
