چکیده
Carotid Artery Occlusion Following Ingestion of LSD • A 20-year-old white woman developed a left hemiplegia following the ingestion of LSD. Initial angiography revealed marked constriction of the internal carotid artery at the level of the siphon which, in a few days, was converted to occlusion of the carotid artery at that level. It is suggested that LSD, an amine derivative of the ergot alkaloids, was responsible for the initial vasoconstriction and subsequent occlusion. Additional

A Lumped Parameter Method to Calculate the Effect of Internal Carotid Artery Occlusion on Anterior Cerebral Artery Pressure Waveform
Background and Objective: Numerical modeling of biological structures would be very helpful tool to analyze hundreds of human body phenomena and also diseases diagnosis. One physiologic phenomenon is blood circulatory system and heart hemodynamic performance that can be simulated by utilizing lumped method. In this study, we can predict hemodynamic behavior of one artery of circulatory system (...
متن کاملCarotid angioplasty and stenting in a patient with high grade stenosis of Internal Carotid Artery associated with both vertebral arteries and contralateral carotid occlusion
Severe internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis is a common cause of cerebrovascular accident (CVA) in middle-aged patients. Contralateral carotid occlusion (CCO) in patients with severe ICA stenosis is associated with high risk of CVA. Carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is associated with more complications in patients with CCO than those without CCO. In this study, we present the case of a 61-year-ol...

Introduction: The aim of this study was evaluation the effects of bilateral carotid artery occlusion on cochlear oxidative stress and hearing status in rat. Methods: The rats were divided into two sets. First set used for electrophysiological recording (click and 4 kHz tone burst ABR and EcochG) at day before surgery and 1st, 4th and 7th days after surgery. Animals of second set that used for ...
متن کاملNeuroprotective Effect of Paroxetine on Memory Deficit Induced by Cerebral Ischemia after Transient Bilateral Occlusion of Common Carotid Arteries in Rat
Aims:Memory deficit is the most visible symptom of cerebral ischemia. The hippocampus is sensitive against cerebral ischemia. Oxidative stress and inflammation are involved in the pathological process after cerebral ischemic injury. Paroxetine has anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory effects. In this study the effect of paroxetine on memory deficit after cerebral ischemia was investigated. Meth...
