Inhibition of Cerebral Metabolism by Lidocaine
European Neurology, 2008The effects of lidocaine in high doses, i.e. higher than seizure doses, on cerebral function and metabolism are reviewed. Evidence is presented that lidocaine (160 mg/kg) reduces membrane Na+-K+ permeability, restricts leak fluxes of these ions, and decreases the load on the associated ion transport. In the ischemic brain (circulatory arrest in dogs on

Effects of Vincamin on Cerebral Metabolism
European Neurology, 2008In this study the effects of vincamin (Pervincamine) on cerebral metabolism were investigated. 60 subjects were tested. Vincamin was administrated to 36, aminophillin to 12. No drug was given to the remaining 12 subjects who were used as controls.

Carbohydrates as a Cerebral Metabolic Fuel
Journal of Pediatric Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1998The human brain is an extremely active metabolic organ with little endogenous stores of energy. It is thus dependent on circulating glucose to fuel metabolism and support cognitive functioning. However there is growing evidence that the human brain is able to utilise other non-glucose fuels during times of glucose lack.

Cerebral perfusion, metabolism, and outcome
Current Opinion in Pediatrics, 1995Factors contributing to brain damage and an adverse outcome are complex. Both severe hypoxia-ischemia and prolonged hypoxia of lesser severity may cause brain damage. Compromised cerebral perfusion leads to ischemia. Fetal brain damage may begin because of a redistribution rather than reduction of cerebral blood flow. Normal newborn cerebral blood flow

Cerebral Oxygen Metabolism in Newborns
Pediatrics, 1993Objective. A better understanding of the developmental changes in brain energy metabolism that occur in human neonates is critically important for designing rational treatment strategies that ensure an adequate supply of nutrients to the brain and minimize deleterious side effects of therapeutic interventions in sick newborns.

A Computerized System For Measuring Cerebral Metabolism
SPIE Proceedings, 1986A computerized stereotactic measurement system for evaluating rat brain metabolism was developed to utilize the large amount of data generated by quantitative autoradiography. Conventional methods of measurement only analyze a small percent of this data, because these methods are limited by instrument design and the subjectiveness of the investigator ...

Cerebral ketone body metabolism
Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2004Summary Ketone bodies (KBs) are an important source of energy for the brain. During the neonatal period, they are also precursors for the synthesis of lipids (especially cholesterol) and amino acids. The rate of cerebral KB metabolism depends primarily on the concentration in blood; high concentrations occur during fasting and on a ...

Cerebral Oxidative Metabolism in Hypertension
Clinical Science, 19961. The evidence is now overwhelming that so-called ‘essential’ hypertension in man, i.e. high systemic arterial pressure for no apparent cause, is commonly initiated by increased efferent sympathetic activity directed to the cardiovascular system. Eventually structural and other changes take place in the heart, kidneys and blood vessels.
