The vulnerability of gerbils to focal Cerebral Ischemia
Gerbils of both sexes were used to study the effects of 30-min ischemia and subsequent recirculation for 4 and 8 days. The mortality rate was 9% during ischemia and 34% in the recirculation period. No close co...

Spatial and temporal changes in tissue pH and ATP distribution in a new model of reversible focal forebrain ischemia in the rat
The effects of reversible middle cerebral artery occlusion on regional pH and ATP distribution were studied in a new stroke model in rats by a planimetric method. Thirty minutes of ischemia was followed by 2, ...

The age and genomic integrity of neurons after cortical stroke in humans
In this study, the authors use measures of carbon-14 in neuronal DNA from human stroke patient cortical tissue samples to show that, unlike previous studies done in rodents, they do not find any evidence of in...

Intravenous thrombolysis for ischemic stroke in the golden hour: propensity-matched analysis from the SITS-EAST registry
As there are scarce data regarding the outcomes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) within 60 min from symptom onset (“golden hour”), we sought to compare outcom...
