Introduction: It has been suggested physical exercise exerts neuroprotection in traumatic brain injury (TBI). However little information is available about the effect of endurance exercise on brain edema, inflammation and oxidant activity in diffuse TBI. Therefore, we investigated the prophylaxis effect of endurance training against oxidative damage, inflammation and brain edema assoc...

Introduction: Nitric oxide seems to play a dual role in ischemia/reperfusion injury. Few studies have investigated whether it exacerbates or improves brain edema. In the present study, we inhibited the activity of nitric oxide synthase by L-NAME and evaluated the cerebral infarct volume, tissue swelling and brain edema, alongside the measurement of blood flow of the ischemic region. Methods...

the prevention of bbb breakdown and the subsequent vasogenic edema are important parts of the medical management of ischemic stroke. the purpose of this study was to investigate the ischemic tolerance effect of rosmarinus officinalis leaf hydro-alcoholic extract (rhe).five groups of animals were designed: sham (underwent surgery without mcao) and mcao groups, the mcao groups were pretreated ora...

This pathological process occurs due to various etiological factors: injury, stroke, tumors abscesses, meningitis encephalitis, hypoxia, general toxicosis, infectious processes, body burns, occlusive hydrocephalus, malignant hypertension, osmotic imbalance. That is why purpose thi...

Grades of recovery and outcome of patients with "stroke" have been widely reported by different authors.' There is reasonable agreement on the "poor" outcome of a certain number of surviving "stroke" patients; their number is widely estimated to vary from 19% to 35%. With the growing need for physical medicine and rehabilitation treatment and the associated mushrooming financial expenditures fo...
