Informed by NIH-supported research, current practice guidelines for bipolar disorder now include mood stabilizer medication as the first-line treatment.</p>

<p>Before the early 2000s, the only sure way to know whether a person had Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia was after death through autopsy. Thanks to NIH-supported research, tests are now available to help doctors measure biomarkers—biological indicators of disease—associated with dementia in a living person.</p>

<p>Each year in the U.S. people have more than 800,000 strokes. NIH has worked to increase public awareness around stroke through the <em>Know Stroke</em> campaign, which has reached millions of people.</p>

<li>Stroke is a leading cause of death in the U.S. and is a major cause of serious disability for adults.</li>

<li>NIH developed the <em>Know Stroke. Know the Signs. Act in Time.</em> campaign to help educate the public about the symptoms of stroke and the importance of getting to the hospital quickly. NIH also launched the related <em>Mind Your Risks</em>® campaign, focused on blood pressure control for the prevention of stroke and dementia.</li>

<p>NIH played a major role in the development of the clot-busting medicine tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), which was the first treatment for strokes caused by blood clots and remains a frontline therapy. Approved by FDA in 1996, tPA transformed stroke care to enable rapid intervention and was an impetus for future treatments.</p>

<li>Ischemic stroke is caused by the blockage of a vessel supplying blood to the brain.</li>
|
||
<li>When administered quickly after stroke onset, tPA helps to restore blood flow to brain regions affected by an ischemic stroke, limiting the risk of damage and impairment.</li>
|
||
<li>Hundreds of hospitals around the U.S. now have resources and protocols to rapidly diagnose a stroke with brain imaging and administer tPA.</li>
|
||
<li>NIH research also contributed to the development of endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), a minimally invasive surgery to treat ischemic stroke up to 24 hours after a stroke starts, long after tPA can be effective.</li>
