Spontaneous cerebral hypothermia diminishes focal infarction in rat brain.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Brain temperature during ischemia is known to strongly influence the extent of cellular injury. The objectives of the present study were to determine the effect of severe focal ischemia on brain temperature and to assess the influence of those changes on focal infarction. METHODS Severe focal ischemia was produced in rats using permanent occlusion of the distal middle c...

Delayed combination therapy of local brain hypothermia and decompressive craniectomy on acute stroke outcome in rat

Objective(s):Hypothermia and decompressive craniectomy (DC) have been shown to be neuroprotective. This study was designed to evaluate neuroprotective effects of delayed singular or combination of DC and local hypothermia on stroke. Materials and Methods: Cerebral ischemia was induced in 48 Wistar rats assigned to 4 groups: control, decompressive craniectomy (DC), local hypothermia (LH), combin...

Hypothermia therapy for brain injury.

Induced hypothermia is an acknowledged useful therapy for treating conditions that lead to cell and tissue damage caused by ischemia, including traumatic brain injury, stroke, and cardiac arrest. An accumulating body of clinical evidence, together with several decades of research, has documented that the efficacy of hypothermia is dependent on achieving a reduced temperature in the target tissu...

The Frequency of Cerebral Microembolism in Acute Myocardial Infarction

ABSTRACT Introduction: Stroke is more common in patients with cerebral microembolisms. Frequency of cerebral microembolisms (high intensity transient signals, HITS) in acute myocardial infarction has been reported about 17%. The factors that influence on microembolism after myocardial infarction (MI) are not definitive. Type of MI, Ejection fraction, Hx of Streptokinase is the factors that were...

Massive cerebral infarction with severe brain swelling: a clinicopathological study.

Massive Cerebral Infarction with Severe Brain Swelling • All cases of acute supratentorial cerebral infarction which came to postmortem examination over the past 10 years at the Philadelphia General Hospital were reviewed. Of a total of 353 such cases, 45 showed severe brain swelling. Seventy-eight percent of these 45 patients died within seven days of the acute infarction. The rapidly fatal ou...
