Interventions
Dimethyl fumarate 240mg orally twice daily for 3 consecutive days

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| changes in lesion volume | baseline to day 7 | measured by MRI |
| changes in hemorrhage volume | baseline to day 7 | measured by MRI |
| changes in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) | baseline to day 7 | The NIHSS score ranges from 0 to 42 points. The higher the score, the more severe the neurological impairment. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| The Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) | day1 | The mRS score ranges from 0 to 7 points. The higher the score, the more severe the neurological recovery state of stroke patients. |
| National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) | day 3 | The NIHSS score ranges from 0 to 42 points. The higher the score, the more severe the neurological impairment. |
