Does Cerebrolysin help with memory?

Conclusion: Ginkgo biloba extracts have shown the greatest cognitive and functional benefits, though their clinical significance remains uncertain, and certainty of evidence is overall low. Future trials should focus on a single VCI subtype, prioritize interventions with a strong mechanistic rationale, standardize diagnostic criteria, ensure adequate power for chosen outcomes, test against placebo, and implement FAIR data sharing to accelerate therapeutic discovery.

Conclusion: Cerebrolysin may have positive effects on cognitive function and global function in elderly patients with vascular dementia of mild to moderate severity, but there is still insufficient evidence to recommend Cerebrolysin as a routine treatment for vascular dementia due to the limited number of included trials, wide variety of treatment durations and short-term follow-up in most of the trials.
