The effects of intravenous glycerol and intravenous dextrose were compared using a double-blind trial in twenty-seven patients with acute stroke. Administration continued for up to 6 days. A standard scoring system was used for neurological evaluation. There was no difference in mortality or in improvement in neurological score between the two groups.
