Detailed Description
Neurological diseases such as stroke or spinal cord injuries are very common etiologies causing disability in developed countries. Cord blood possess various stem and progenitor cells, as well as their secreted regenerative factors, and is known to repair injured brain. The investigators clinical research aims to determine the safety and efficacy of allogeneic Umbilical Cord Blood for adult patients with neurological diseases such as stroke and spinal cord injury.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Changes in modified Rankin Scale (mRS) [1 month - 3 months - 6 months - 12 months]
modified Rankin Scale (mRS) from 1 - 5 whereby 1 is best (no significant disability) and 5 is worst (severe disability); The mRS is a commonly used scale for measuring the degree of disability or dependence in the daily activities of people who have suffered a stroke or other causes of neurological disability.
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Monitoring Adverse Events [1 month - 3 months - 6 months - 12 months]
Number of participants with treatment-related adverse events as assessedCommon by Toxicity Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE).version 5.0; adverse events are graded on a scale from 0 to 5, whereby grade 0 is best (no AE) and grade 5 is worst (fatal).
