Article abstract-We evaluated the ability of monoclonal antibodies directed against leukocyte
adhesion molecules (intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), CD18) to enhance the …

We evaluated the effect of antibodies directed against a leukocyte adhesion molecule (ICAM-1)
in an embolic model of stroke followed by thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator …

There is no comprehensive screening programme for atrial fibrillation (AF) in either the UK
or the US. This paper describes a simple new technology that could contribute to such a …

Hemorrhagic transformation (HT) is a poorly understood yet frequent complication of stroke.
A transient increase in blood pressure (BP) occurs immediately after experimental …

Although found as a precursor of Alzheimer amyloid, substantial evidence suggests that β/A4
protein precursor (APP) is involved in regulation of neuronal growth and survival. Recently, …

We examined the relationship between acute hypertension following cerebral embolization
and subsequent hemorrhagic transformation (HT) in a rabbit embolic stroke model. We have …

Hemodilution using modified hemoglobin solutions may reduce ischemic central nervous
system injury. Purified diaspirin cross-linked hemoglobin (DCLHb) is a cell-free hemoglobin …

Background: With the implementation of thrombolysis, a large number of distinct pharmacological
agents are now under consideration for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke, with …

Continuous intracerebroventricular or intrathecal infusions of neurotrophic factors have
been reported to prevent neuronal degeneration, stimulate axonal sprouting and ameliorate …

Domestic fowl tested at 3, 5, and 7 days posthatch jumped from a heated grid more rapidly
than animals tested at 14 days posthatch. Morphine (2.5 mg/kg) decreased jump latency in 14-…
