Brain glucose metabolism in postanoxic syndrome: positron emission tomographic study
AG DeVolder, AM Goffinet, A Bol, C Michel… - Archives of …, 1990 - jamanetwork.com
• Thirteen positron emission tomographic studies of cerebral glucose utilization were carried
out in 12 patients with postanoxic syndrome due to cardiac arrest. Seven subjects were in a
persistent vegetative state. The 5 other subjects were normally conscious, but disclosed
focal neurological signs. When compared with normal values, mean cerebral glucose
metabolism was drastically decreased (±50%) in vegetative subjects, and to a lesser degree
(±25%) in conscious patients. The most consistent regional alterations were found in the …
