The 10th Biennial Hatter Cardiovascular Institute workshop: cellular protection—evaluating new directions in the setting of myocardial infarction, ischaemic stroke, and cardio-oncology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Due to its poor capacity for regeneration, the heart is particularly sensitive to the loss of contractile cardiomyocytes. The onslaught of damage caused by ischaemia and reperfusion, occurring during an acute myocardial infarction and the subsequent ...

Hemicraniectomy in Malignant Middle Cerebral Artery Infarction [PDF]

open access: yesStroke, 2011
The concept of decompressive surgery for treatment of elevated intracranial pressure has been developed already in the beginning of the 20th century.1 The rationale of this treatment modality consists of opening of the skull and removal of a bone flap to allow the edematous brain to swell outward, thereby preventing intracranial tissue shifts and life ...
