background: the role of renin angiotensin system (ras) in ischemic/reperfusion (i/r) injuries is not fully elucidated. furthermore, it is not clear whether inhibition of ras by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ace) inhibitors has beneficial effects in terms of protecting the brain from i/r injuries. in this study enalapril is used as an ace inhibitor to evaluate the role of ras in i/r injuries in...

ischemic stroke accounts for about 87 percent of all cases. it occurs as a result of an obstruction within a vessel of the brain and sudden loss of blood circulation to the corresponding area resulting in the loss of brain function. it is caused by thrombotic or embolic occlusion of an artery and is more common than hemorrhagic stroke. we know that most of the injuries after an acute ischemic s...

traumatic brain injury resulting road accidents create damage to the brain. the severe brain injury may cause extensive tissue loss of several parenchyma which results in cavities due to primary destruction and secondary injuries such as ischemia and inflammation. recent findings suggest that neuronal precursors in the adult mammalian brain can be a therapeutic target in ischemic brain injuries...

Penetrating orbital trauma necessitates a multidisciplinary approach because complex injuries often encompass damage to the brain, eyes, and disfigurement of face.

computed tomography (ct) is now the primary diagnostic method for head trauma because of its ability to demonstrate the nature, extent, sites, and multiplicity of brain injuries. although there have been numerous reports on the ct findings of most types of intracranial injury, the findings in brainstem injury have not been well described. this study aimed at comparing the autopsy findings of br...
