BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Laser Doppler flowmetry (LDF) is increasingly used to
assess adequate occlusion after embolic stroke (ES) in rats. METHODS: Employing LDF …

Traumatic brain injury is associated with acute subdural hematoma (ASDH) that worsens
outcome. Although early removal of blood can reduce mortality, patients still die or remain …

OBJECTIVE: Mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate-dependent potassium (mitoK ATP)
channels are present in the brain, and several reports have shown their neuroprotective …

Following traumatic brain injury, catecholamines given to ameliorate cerebral perfusion may
induce brain damage via cerebral arteriolar constriction and increased neuronal excitation …
