Abstract:Cerebral ischemia is widely studied through the employment of experimental animal models. Incomplete global models such as two-vessel occlusion are relevant in the study of disease states which may attenuate cerebral ischemia. Hyperglycemia is known to worsen the consequences of ischemia but has not been exclusively employed. The two-vessel occlusion model, which is unsuccessful when employed in the absence of hypotension and/or hypoxia, is thus ideal for modification to a hyperglycemic model. We therefore des… Show more
