Magnetic resonance investigation into the mechanisms involved in the development of high-altitude cerebral edema [PDF]
, 2017 Rapid ascent to high altitude commonly results in acute mountain sickness, and on occasion potentially fatal high-altitude cerebral edema. The exact pathophysiological mechanisms behind these syndromes remain to be determined.

Triptans and CGRP blockade - impact on the cranial vasculature [PDF]
, 2017 The trigeminovascular system plays a key role in the pathophysiology of migraine. The activation of the trigeminovascular system causes release of various neurotransmitters and neuropeptides, including serotonin and calcitonin gene-related peptide ...

Fetal liver blood flow distribution: role in human developmental strategy to prioritize fat deposition versus brain development [PDF]
, 2012 Among primates, human neonates have the largest brains but also the highest proportion of body fat. If placental nutrient supply is limited, the fetus faces a dilemma: should resources be allocated to brain growth, or to fat deposition for use as a ...

Advances in imaging of new targets for pharmacological intervention in stroke: real-time tracking of T-cells in the ischaemic brain [PDF]
, 2010 Background and purpose: T‐cells may play a role in the evolution of ischaemic damage and repair, but the ability to image these cells in the living brain after a stroke has been limited.
