HBA1C level and its role on ischemic stroke patients with prediabetes [PDF]
Background. Stroke is the highest cause of death in Indonesia. Impaired glucose tolerance becomes one of the metabolic risk factors that contribute to ischemic stroke. This study will observe the role of HbA1c level on ischemic stroke in “Dr.

Hypothermia Protects and Prolongs the Tolerance Time of Retinal Ganglion Cells against Ischemia. [PDF]
PURPOSE:Hypothermia has been shown to be neuroprotective in the therapy of ischemic stroke in the brain. To date no studies exist on the level of the inner retina and it is unclear if hypothermia would prolong the ischemic tolerance time of retinal ...

Correlation between MMP-9 and extracellular cytokine HMGB1 in prediction of human ischemic stroke outcome [PDF]
Ischemic stroke (IS) outcome predictors include clinical features, biochemical parameters and some risk factors. The relations between two main players in the ischemic brain, MMPs and HMGB1, were estimated in the plasma of ischemic stroke patients ...

Transient limb ischemia induces remote ischemic preconditioning in vivo [PDF]
Background-Ischemic preconditioning reduces local tissue injury caused by subsequent ischemia-reperfusion (IR), but may also have a salutary effect on IR injury of tissues remote from those undergoing preconditioning.

Predictors of early cardiac morbidity and mortality after ischemic stroke [PDF]
<p><b>Background and Purpose:</b> In the first 3 months after acute ischemic stroke, 2% to 6% of patients die from cardiac causes. This may reflect preexisting cardiac disease, cardiac dysfunction related to the acute neurohumoral and ...
