✦ Synopsis

A susceptibility contrast agent which does not pass into the extra-cellular space was used to study the effect of changes in the relative cerebral blood volume (CBV) on the haemodynamic response to anoxia, for both normal and ischaemic brain tissue, in a rat model of acute focal ischaemia. In non-ischaemic tissue a strong CBV component was observed in the haemodynamic response, both during and after anoxia. During anoxia the change in the CBV of the non-ischaemic tissue was estimated to be 40% in the caudate putamen and 70% in the frontalparietal cortex. For severely ischaemic tissue (ischaemic caudate putamen) there was no change in the CBV during anoxia while in areas of moderate ischaemia (ischaemic frontal parietal cortex) a change of 20% was observed. The effect of the contrast agent on spin-echo images was consistent with a small reduction in the microvascular blood volume of the ischaemic tissue.

The purpose of the study was to determine whether an episode of anoxia in the neonatal period affects the hypoxic ventilatory response in developing rats. Three to 4 day old rats (EXP rats) (day 0 = day of birth) were exposed to 100% N 2 for about 20 min. In anoxia, animals changed their respiratory

Blood supplying the brain in vertebrates is carried primarily by the carotid vasculature. In most mammals, cerebral blood flow is supplemented by the vertebral arteries, which anastomose with the carotids at the base of the brain. In other tetrapods, cerebral blood is generally believed to be suppli

Background: Permeability of thin-walled vessels of the endometrium could be a prerequisite for deciduoma formation. Exogenous gonadotropins alter endometrial morphology and inhibit vascular permeability on the day of implantation. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of exogenous gona
