How do red neurons contribute to the development and recovery process in stroke patients?

Red neurons, also known as dying neurons, are a sign of irreversible damage in the brain after a stroke. They do not contribute to the recovery process in stroke patients, but their presence can help doctors determine the extent of the injury. Recovery in stroke patients is mainly facilitated by the brain's ability to reorganize and form new connections, a process known as neuroplasticity. Physical therapy, speech therapy, and other rehabilitation techniques can also aid in the recovery process.
