Postconditioning promotes recovery in the neurovascular unit after stroke
Background and purposeExperimental studies suggest that ischemic postconditioning interferes with cell death mechanisms and reduces infarction during the acute phase after focal cerebral ischemia.

Pharmacological postconditioning: a molecular aspect in ischemic injury
Abstract Objective Ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury is defined as the damage to the tissue which is caused when blood supply returns to tissue after ischaemia. To protect the ischaemic tissue from irreversible injury, various protective agents have been studied but the benefits have not been ...

Effect of helium pre- or postconditioning on signal transduction kinases in patients undergoing coronary artery bypass graft surgery [PDF]
Background: The noble gas helium induces pre- and postconditioning in animals and humans. Volatile anesthetics induce cardioprotection in humans undergoing coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) surgery.

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Neither Improves Survival nor Reduces Myocardial or Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Peri-interventional myocardial injury occurs frequently during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We assessed the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury, acute kidney injury (AKIN) and 6-month ...

Effect of ischemic postconditioning in adult valve replacement☆ [PDF]
Ischemic postconditioning (POC) by brief episodes of ischemia performed just at the time of reperfusion can reduce infarct size in animal models and clinical settings of percutaneous coronary intervention. However, the clinical applicability of postconditioning in cardiac surgery remains to be determined.
