Anti-Inflammatory Effects Of Ppar-Gamma In Surgical Brain Injury (Sbi), Amy Hyong Sep 2008

Anti-Inflammatory Effects Of Ppar-Gamma In Surgical Brain Injury (Sbi), Amy Hyong

Loma Linda University Electronic Theses, Dissertations & Projects

Introduction: Brain injury can be caused by neurosurgical procedures themselves, due to direct trauma, retractor stretch, intraoperative hemorrhage and electrocautery damage. As a result of this surgical brain injury (SBI) postoperative complications such as inflammation, brain edema, and cell death can occur in the susceptible brain areas. Cerebral inflammation is a known contributor to the pathophysiology of brain injury. Following brain injury, the release of inflammatory mediators facilitates the development of BBB breakdown, cerebral edema, oxidative stress and neuronal death, resulting in further tissue damage in the brain and poor neurological outcomes. This study evaluates whether the use of a …

Descriptive Enlargement Of Intracranial Aneurysms To A Critical Thickness For Rupture, G. Austin, X. Gong, Z. Suo Feb 1993

Descriptive Enlargement Of Intracranial Aneurysms To A Critical Thickness For Rupture, G. Austin, X. Gong, Z. Suo

The Dr. George M. Austin Neurology Research Collection

''lntracranial Aneurysm: A model of expansion to critical thinning," Poster Presentation Annual Meeting of Biophysical Society, Wash., D.C., 1993, 9 p.

Most intracranial aneurysms (IA) are thinner at the apex; and 84% rupture at the apex. (Weir, 1987, Crompton, 1966). Minimum thickness of an unruptured aneurysm is reported 20 microns (Suzuki, et al 1980). We have developed a computer model of aneurysm enlargement starting from a vascular wall using the membrane elasticity equations of Green and Adkins, 1960 and Bogen & McMahon, 1978, and a computer solution with a new Fortran program by X. Gong. The relatively homogeneous wall (Austin, …
