This review highlights the influence of oxygen (O2) availability on cerebral blood flow (CBF).
Evidence for reductions in O2 content (CaO2) rather than arterial O2 tension (PaO2) as the …

Capillary perfusion in the brain is characterized by an essentially continuous flow of
erythrocytes and plasma in almost all capillaries. Rapid fluctuations and spatial …

Although increased blood viscosity occurs in several cardiovascular diseases, little is known
of factors influencing blood rheology in normal adults. Accordingly, we examined the …

In terms of human suffering, medical expenses, and lost productivity, head injury is one of
the major health care problems in the United States, and inadequate cerebral blood flow is …

Cerebral vasospasm is a recognised but poorly understood complication for many patients
who have aneurismal subarachnoid haemorrhage and can lead to delayed ischaemic …

We evaluated the effects of hematocrit on blood velocity in the middle cerebral artery
measured by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography in 45 patients. Hematocrits ranged from …

The effect of chronic hypobaric hypoxia (28 days, 455 Torr) on the organization of brain
vessels was studied in Balb/c mice. In comparison to age-matched controls kept at sea level …

The life‐extending effects of regular exercise are related to a decrease in both coronary and
peripheral vascular morbidity, associated with some improvements in cardiovascular risk …

The causes of death and neurological sequelae in African children with cerebral malaria are
obscure. Intracranial pressure (ICP) was monitored and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) …

Background Erythrocytes are transfused to treat or prevent imminent inadequate tissue
oxygenation. 2, 3-diphosphoglycerate concentration decreases and oxygen affinity of …
