Abstract Development of obesity in animals is affected by energy intake, dietary composition,
and metabolism. Useful models for studying this metabolic problem are Sprague-Dawley …

The objective of the present paper is to review the current status of exercise as a tool to
promote cognitive rehabilitation after acquired brain injury (ABI) in animal model‐based …

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an increasingly prevalent condition affecting soldiers, athletes,
and motor vehicle accident victims. Unfortunately, it currently lacks effective therapeutic …

Experimental animal models of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have provided
a wealth of information on the mechanisms of brain injury. The rat endovascular perforation …

Hyperglycemia due to relative hypoinsulinism is common in extremely preterm infants and is
associated with hippocampus-mediated long-term cognitive impairment. In neonatal rats …

Objectives: Rat models of global cerebral ischemia (GCI) are essential to study potential
treatment strategies against stroke in humans. However, nonvisual electrocoagulation of …

Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) may be a prodromal feature of aging-related
dementias, and chronic hypertension is a major risk factor. We used a permanent, four …

Under high sodium intake renal dopamine (DA) increases while NOS I expression in macula
densa cells (MD) decreases. To explore whether renal DA and NOS I, linked to natriuresis …

The electroencephalogram or EEG is introduced in this chapter. Properties of the EEG time
series are discussed as well. These include individual frequency band descriptions, and …

Background and Purpose: Inflammation and compromise in structure and function of
cerebral parenchymal microvasculature begins early after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) …
