Emergency decompressive craniectomy after removal of convexity meningiomas [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Convexity meningiomas are benign brain tumors that are amenable to complete surgical resection and are associated with a low complication rate.

Post-ischaemic treatment with the cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor nimesulide reduces blood-brain barrier disruption and leukocyte infiltration following transient focal cerebral ischaemia in rats [PDF]
Several studies suggest that cyclooxygenase (COX)-2 plays a pivotal role in the progression of ischemic brain damage. In the present study, we investigated the effects of selective inhibition of COX-2 with nimesulide (12 mg/kg) and selective inhibition ...

Phase I and Phase II Therapies for Acute Ischemic Stroke: An Update on Currently Studied Drugs in Clinical Research. [PDF]
Acute ischemic stroke is a devastating cause of death and disability, consequences of which depend on the time from ischemia onset to treatment, the affected brain region, and its size.

Hypoxia–ischemia in the immature brain [PDF]
SUMMARYThe immature brain has long been considered to be resistant to the damaging effects of hypoxia and hypoxia–ischemia (H/I). However, it is now appreciated that there are specific periods of increased vulnerability, which relate to the developmental stage at the time of the insult.

Hyperglycemia and Focal Brain Ischemia [PDF]
The influence of hyperglycemic ischemia on tissue damage and cerebral blood flow was studied in rats subjected to short-lasting transient middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. Rats were made hyperglycemic by intravenous infusion of glucose to a blood glucose level of about 20 mmol/L, and MCA occlusion was performed with the intraluminar filament ...

Post-stroke inhibition of induced NADPH oxidase type 4 prevents oxidative stress and neurodegeneration [PDF]
Ischemic stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide. Only one moderately effective therapy exists, albeit with contraindications that exclude 90% of the patients.

Hypothermia selectively protects the anterior forebrain mesocircuit during global cerebral ischemia
Hypothermia is an important protective strategy against global cerebral ischemia following cardiac arrest. However, the mechanisms of hypothermia underlying the changes in different regions and connections of the brain have not been fully elucidated ...
