Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient bloodflow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. This leads to poor oxygen supply in the...

Ischemia of the small bowel is called mesenteric ischemia. Brain ischemia is insufficient blood flow to the brain, and can be acute or chronic. Acute ischemic...

depolarization of neurons during stroke or brain ischemia in which there is an inadequate supply of blood to the brain. Anoxic depolarization is induced by...

These symptoms can be indicative of insufficient blood flow to the brain (ischemia) as well as compression of arterioles. In response to rising intracranial...

A watershed stroke is defined as a brain ischemia that is localized to the vulnerable border zones between the tissues supplied by the anterior, posterior...

surrounding the haematoma. Reducing the blood pressure rapidly does not cause brain ischemia in those who have intracerebral haemorrhage. The American Heart Association...

risk of brain ischemia resulting from artery blockage. The extent of damage depends on the duration and severity of the ischemia. If ischemia persists...

approved in the U.S. to remove blood clots in patients who had acute brain ischemia. It may result in benefit in certain people as long as 8 hours after...

(e.g. the brain) due the need of a high pressure to flow against gravity which in turn results in less blood flow to the brain (brain ischemia), which then...

mononucleotide from mitochondrial complex I has been shown to occur during ischemia/reperfusion brain injury during stroke. Flavin mononucleotide is also used as an...

the proximate cause or mechanism of death might be brain ischemia (lack of blood flow to the brain), caused by a malignant neoplasm (cancer), in turn...

metabolic with low blood reserves, the brain is the most sensitive organ to ischemia. As a result, any amount of brain ischemia, especially when it is prolonged...
