    Acute Hyperglycemia Does Not Affect Brain Swelling or Infarction Volume After Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion in Rats

    Stroke disproportionally affects diabetic and hyperglycemic patients with increased incidence and is associated with higher morbidity and mortality due to brain swelling. In this study, the intraluminal suture...

    Neurovascular Repair After Stroke

    Hemorrhagic strokes result from vessel rupture, increasing bleeding in the surrounding areas, and damaging adjacent tissues. The components of the blood and heme breakdown products induce toxicity, inflammatio...

    Statin-Induced T-Lymphocyte Modulation and Neuroprotection Following Experimental Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

    Introduction: Statins influence immune system activities through mechanisms independent of their lipid-lowering properties. T cells can be subdivided based on cytokine secretion patterns into two s...

    Magnesium in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: From Bench to Bedside

    Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a devastating disease responsible for 5 % of stroke cases and affects approximately 28,000 North Americans annually. Even though its incidence is dwarfed by other s...

    Multiple hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) expands the therapeutic window in acute spinal cord injury in rats

    Hyperbaric oxygenation (HBO) therapy has been reported to improve neurological recovery following spinal cord injury (SCI). In the present study, we examined whether multiple HBO expands the therapeutic window...

    Heat shock proteins expression in brain stem after subarachnoid hemorrhage in rats

    The pathogenesis of brain damage after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) especially at molecular or gene level remains unclear. We used complimentary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) macroarray technique and compared ...

    Role of Tyrosine Kinase in Fibroblast Compaction and Cerebral Vasospasm

    Hemolysate, a proposed causative agent for cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid hemorrhage, produces contraction of cerebral arteries by activation of tyrosine kinases. In addition, hemolysate accelerates...
