The protective effect of M40401, a superoxide dismutase mimetic, on post-ischemic brain damage in Mongolian gerbils [PDF]
, 2003 BACKGROUND: Overproduction of free radical species has been shown to occur in brain tissues after ischemia-reperfusion injury. However, most of free radical scavengers known to antagonize oxidative damage (e.g. superoxide dismutase, catalase), are unable

β-adrenergic inhibition prevents action potential and calcium handling changes during regional myocardial ischemia [PDF]
, 2017 β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) blockers may be administered during acute myocardial infarction (MI), as they reduce energy demand through negative chronotropic and inotropic effects and prevent ischemia-induced arrhythmogenesis. However, the direct effects

The Effect of Blood Pressure Variability on Coronary Atherosclerosis Plaques
Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 Hypertension is one of the most important risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD). The regulation of blood pressure plays a significant role in the development and prognosis of CHD.

Cardiac kinematic parameters computed from video of $\textit{in situ}$ beating heart [PDF]
Scientific Reports 2017;7:46143, 2020 Mechanical function of the heart during open-chest cardiac surgery is exclusively monitored by echocardiographic techniques. However, little is known about local kinematics, particularly for the reperfused regions after ischemic events. We report a novel imaging modality, which extracts local and global kinematic parameters from videos of $\textit{in ...

Wide therapeutic time window for nimesulide neuroprotection in a model of transient focal cerebral ischemia in the rat [PDF]
, 2004 Results from several studies indicate that cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) is involved ischemic brain injury. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the neuroprotective effects of the selective COX-2 inhibitor nimesulide on cerebral infarction and ...

Effects of high vs moderate-intensity training on neuroplasticity and functional recovery after focal ischemia [PDF]
American Heart Association, 2017, 48 (10), pp.2855 - 2864, 2018 Background and Purpose: This study was designed to compare the effects of high-intensity interval training (HIT) and moderate-intensity continuous training (MOD) on functional recovery and cerebral plasticity during the first 2 weeks following cerebral ischemia. Methods: Rats were randomized as follows: Control (n=15), SHAM (n=9), MCAO (n=13), MCAO-D1 (
