The effect of general hypothermia was investigated in 15 unanesthetized cats. The animals were immobilized with Flaxedil and maintained on mechanical respiration. An epileptogenic focus was induced by stereo-tactical injection of penicillin to the right hippocampus. Cooling of the body was followed
We investigated (1) whether cerebral hypothermia during kainic acid (KA)-induced seizures was neuroprotective; and (2) whether nitric oxide (NO) production in the brain during seizures was altered by cerebral hypothermia in immature rabbits. Twelve female rabbits, aged 2 weeks, were anesthetized,
OBJECTIVE
It is unknown whether hypothermia can disrupt the progress of epileptogenesis. The present study aimed to determine the effect of hypothermia on brain edema and epileptogenesis and to establish whether brain edema is associated with epileptogenesis after severe status epilepticus
BACKGROUND
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether rapid rewarming after hypothermia therapy during seizures alters the endogenous nitric oxide (NO) production in and around hippocampus, cortical cerebral blood flow (cCBF), and mean arterial blood pressure (MABP) in immature
The changes in the permeability of the blood-brain barrier during pentylenetetrazol (PTZ)-induced seizures were investigated in normothermic and hypothermic rats. Six groups of rats were studied: (I) normothermic control; (II) hypothermic control; (III) normothermia plus PTZ (80 mg/kg); (IV)
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this study was to describe a pattern of recovery and histological nerve cell loss in Sprague-Dawley rats exposed to severe brain ischemia and to compare it to that of Wistar rats.
METHODS
Ether- and ketamine-anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to 3, 5, 6 and 10
Core temperature was measured in rats 24 hr. after they had been assigned to one of 8 groups in a 3-way analysis of variance design that involved (1) induction of limbic seizures by a systemic injection of lithium/pilocarpine, (2) physical restraint, and (3) administration of acepromazine. An
Status epilepticus (SE) is a common indication for neurocritical care and can be refractory to standard measures. Refractory SE (RSE) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Unconventional therapies may be utilized in certain cases, including therapeutic hypothermia (TH), bumetanide, and
Hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy (HIE) produces a high rate of long-term neurodevelopmental disability in survivors. Therapeutic hypothermia dramatically improves the incidence of intact survival, but does not eliminate adverse outcomes. The ideal provision of sedation and treatment of seizures
I retrospectively describe 20 episodes of water intoxication in 19 infants, with hypothermia, seizures, and hyponatremia. Overdilution of formula or aggressive supplementation with water or clear juices were documented in 16 of the 20 episodes. Seizures and respiratory distress were severe enough in
The effect of body temperature on kainic acid (KA)-induced limbic seizures was examined in Wistar rats. In rats undergoing limbic seizure induced by 1 microgram intra-amygdaloid injection of KA, the post-injection latency of initial ictal discharges in the left amygdala was significantly longer in
The aim of this study was to determine the frequency, timing, and predictors of rewarming seizures in a cohort of children undergoing therapeutic hypothermia after resuscitation. We retrospectively reviewed consecutive pediatric patients undergoing therapeutic hypothermia after resuscitation
The maintained production of extreme reductions in core temperature (20-22 degrees C) or poikilothermia can be reliably produced by the synergistic interaction of limbic seizures (induced by lithium and pilocarpine), postseizure administration of a single injection of acepromazine, and physical
Seizure is a serious complication of stroke, indicating poor prognosis. Notch signaling is associated with neuronal activity. Inhibition of Notch signaling suppresses seizure activity induced by kainic acid. The present study investigated the effect of the Notch inhibitor, DAPT, alone or in
In this study we investigated the relationship between penicillin-induced hypothermia and petit mal epilepsy induced by this proconvulsant antibiotic. In order to find a possible dose-dependent relationship, we used two doses: 1500.000 and 1000.000 U/kg b.wt., both known as being sufficient to
