It has been repeatedly demonstrated, both clincally and experimentally, that depending upon the site and extent of vascular occlusion, roentgenographic changes can vary from a mild transient structural abnormality in the bowel wall to a destructive irreversible necrosis with perforation or stricture formation.

Thrombolysis for Cerebral Ischemia [PDF]
The care for patients with acute ischemic stroke has been revolutionized by the clinical application of fibrinolysis. Intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) has been proven to improve functional outcomes following acute ischemic stroke and can be administered to a select group of patients up to 4.5 h after symptom onset. Time from

Autophagy in myocardial ischemia and ischemia/reperfusion
Myocardial infarction (MI) is a life-threatening condition that leads to loss of viable heart tissue. The best way to treat acute MI and limit the infarct size is to re-open the occluded coronary artery and restore the supply of oxygenated and nutrient-rich blood, but reperfusion can cause additional damage.
