Pretreatment with a competitive NMDA antagonist D-CPPene attenuates focal cerebral infarction and brain swelling in awake rats
The purpose of the study was to assess effects of the competitive N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist D-(E)-4-(3-phosphonoprop-2-enyl)piperazine-2-carboxylic acid (D-CPPene) upon focal cerebral inf...

Spontaneous evolution of posttraumatic subdural hygroma into chronic subdural haematoma
Thirteen of 145 patients with post-traumatic subdural hygroma (SDHy) developed chronic subdural haematoma (CSDH) at the involved site over a period of 6 years. CSDHs were found at the site of SDHys with no his...

Do N-methyl-D-aspartate Antagonists Have Disproportionately Greater Effects on Brain Swelling than on Ischemic Damage in Focal Cerebral Infarction?
Using a frozen section technique, we have assessed the effects of N-methyl-D-aspartate(NMDA) antagonist upon brain swelling caused by ischemic brain edema in a rat model of focal cerebral infarction. Although ...
