Ischemic stroke (cerebral infarction) is a common clinical disease of ischemic necrosis or softening localized brain tissue, which belongs to in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). In recent years, its incidence rate has gradually increased, the age onset tends be younger, and seriously affects quality life patients with cerebral infarction. TCM rehabilitation one effective methods improve symp...

The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of intracranial vessel wall enhancement and its relationship with ischemic infarction in patients with Moyamoya vasculopathy (MMV). Forty-seven patients with MMV confirmed by angiography were enrolled in this study. The vessel wall enhancement of the distal internal carotid artery, anterior cerebral artery and middle cerebral arter...

Reperfusion is mandatory to salvage ischemic myocardium from infarction, but reperfusion per se contributes to injury and ultimate infarct size. Therefore, cardioprotection beyond that by timely reperfusion is needed to reduce infarct size and improve the prognosis of patients with acute myocardial infarction. The conditioning phenomena provide such cardioprotection, insofar as brief episodes o...

Background: During the COVID-19 pandemic, cardiovascular hospitalizations decreased and in-hospital mortality for ST-elevation myocardial infarction heart failure increased. However, limited research has been conducted on hospitalization rates disease (CVD) other than ischemic failure.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Higher proportions of hemorrhagic stroke and lacunar infarction were reported in rural Japan compared with those in Western countries. We examined the relative proportions of stroke subtypes in an urban Japanese city where westernized lifestyles are more common than in rural areas. METHODS Stroke registration was performed in 1992, 1997, and 2002 for residents > or =40 ...

Introduction: Arterial hypertension is one of the causes of stroke, and as one of the vasculotoxic conditions intensifies ischemic stroke complications. The aim of the present study was to analyze the effects of short-term cerebral hypertension on ischemia/reperfusion injury and pathogenesis of ischemic stroke. Methods: The experiments were performed on three groups of rats (N=36) Sham, cont...

cardiovascular effects of opioid withdrawal have long been studied. it was reported that patients with underlying ischemic heart disease and atherosclerotic vessels may be complicated by a sudden physical and emotional stress due to withdrawal syndrome. but some other believes sudden increase in catecholamine level as a sympathetic overflow might effect on heart with and without underlying isch...

increased levels of proinflammatory cytokines have been recorded after the onset  of transient  or  permanent  brain  ischemia and  are  usually associated with  exacerbation  of ischemic injury. embolic stroke model is more relevant to the pathophysiological situation in such  patients, because the  majority of  ischemic injuries in humans  are induced  by old thrombi that originate from the h...

Studies have shown that the extraction of glucose per unit flow is increased in moderately ischemic myocardium primarily due to anaerobic glucose metabolism manifested as lactate production, whereas myocardial infarction is characterized by the loss of metabolically active myocardium. To determine the feasibility of demonstrating these metabolic abnormalities reflecting both ischemia and infarc...
