Function of BID - a molecule of the bcl-2 family - in ischemic cell death in the brain [PDF]
Mitochondrial mechanisms, particularly the release of cytochrome c, play a role in the death of nerve and glial cells in cerebral ischemia. We have currently investigated whether BID, a proapoptotic molecule of the bcl-2 family and promoter of the ...

Attenuation of Focal Cerebral Ischemic Injury Following Post Ischemic Inhibition of Angiotensin Converting Enzyme (ACE) Activity in Normotensive Rat [PDF]
Central renin angiotensin system has an important role on the cerebral microcirculation and metabolism. Our previous work showed that inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) activity prior to induction of ischemia protected the brain from ...

Is elevated SUA associated with a worse outcome in young Chinese patients with acute cerebral ischemic stroke? [PDF]
Background Elevated serum uric acid (SUA) levels can enhance its antioxidant prosperities and reduce the occurrence of cerebral infarction. Significantly elevated SUA levels have been associated with a better prognosis in patients with cerebral ...

Clinical risk factors predictive of thrombotic stroke with large cerebral infarction
Large cerebral infarctions have high morbidity and mortality. Patients with large cerebral infarctions may have recurrent ischemia as high as 8.1% within 7 days; highest among other types of strokes.

Three dimensional simulations of embolic stroke: clinical comparisons and an equation for sizing emboli from imaging [PDF]
There is a need to develop Monte Carlo simulations of stroke to run in-silico trials to replace animal models, explore clinical scenarios to develop hypotheses for clinical studies and for interpreting clinical monitoring. We perform three-dimensional (3D) stroke simulations, carrying out in-silico trials to relate lesion volume to embolus diameter and

The prevention of cerebral infarction.
脳梗塞の予防の基本は,各個人が有する脳梗塞に対する危険因子を明らかにし,管理可能なものを管理することである.その多くは動脈硬化の進展を阻止することにつながる.危険因子には高血圧,糖尿病,心疾患,肥満,アルコール多飲,喫煙,脂質異常,年齢,性,経口避妊薬,高ヘマトクリット値,高ヘモグロビン値,高フィブリノーゲン血症,抗リン腸質抗体,薬物などがある.このうち,高血圧の管理が最も重要で,特に集団管理の重要性が注目されている。多くの危険因子の管理は生活様式の工夫,食事面の調整,薬物療法の組み合わせで行われる.抗血小板薬は脳梗塞の一次予防には有効ではない.しかし,抗血小板薬は脳梗塞の再発を,非使用例に比較して約25%減少させる.心原性脳塞栓の基礎疾患を有する患者に関しては抗凝血療法が重要である.

Contralateral cortical role on functional recovery in a rat model of hemiplegia [PDF]
The role of the contralateral cerebral cortical plasticity in functional recovery after cerebral infarction is controversial. To clarify this role, we made a second contralateral cortical infarction after recovery from the first cerebral infarction.
