Duplicated middle cerebral artery associated with aneurysm at M1/M2 bifurcation: a case report
Background A duplicated middle cerebral artery arises from the internal carotid artery and supplies blood to the middle cerebral artery territory. A duplicated middle cerebral artery is sometimes associated with an intracranial aneurysm.

Voluntary exercise promotes neurotrophic factor and suppresses apoptosis in hippocampal ischemia [PDF]
Previous studies have demonstrated that exercise facilitates recovery from ischemia. However, the mechanisms need to be further elucidated. The current investigation was designed to study the effect of voluntary exercise on cerebral ischemia and discuss ...

Hyperglycaemia does not increase perfusion deficits after focal cerebral ischaemia in male Wistar rats [PDF]
Background: Hyperglycaemia is associated with a worse outcome in acute ischaemic stroke patients; yet the pathophysiological mechanisms of hyperglycaemia-induced damage are poorly understood.

Minor stroke due to large artery occlusion. When is intravenous thrombolysis not enough? Results from the SITS International Stroke Thrombolysis Register [PDF]
Purpose: Beyond intravenous thrombolysis, evidence is lacking on acute treatment of minor stroke caused by large artery occlusion. To identify candidates for additional endovascular therapy, we aimed to determine the frequency of non-haemorrhagic ...

Middle cerebral artery Doppler [PDF]
In the last 50 years we have seen tremendous advances in the management of fetal haemolytic anaemia. What was once a disease of high perinatal mortality and morbidity has become a condition readily amenable to antenatal diagnosis and intrauterine fetal therapy.

Cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness upon acute high-altitude exposure at 3,700 m in young Chinese men. [PDF]
PURPOSE: We aimed at identifying the cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness (AMS). METHODS: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography examinations were performed between 18 and 24 h after arrival at 3,700 m via plane from 500 m (n ...
