This paper presents a literature review considering the role and mechanism of apoptosis in the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke (IS). The authors introduce a new concept: the functional request of the patient as a set of external (the nature and intensity of rehabilitation measures, characteristics of everyday life, diet, etc.) and internal (genetic factors, internal picture of the disease, availability of rental and other psychological facilities and etc.) attributes. This concept allows a new angle in understanding the pathogenesis of IS and creates fundamental and clinical potential for more successful approaches to therapy and rehabilitation after IS.
