Abstract: | Recent progress in both experimental and clinical studies of cerebral infarction is outlined, and research on delayed neuronal death and ischemic penumbra is described. Development of animal models to study clinical pathophysiology is reviewed, and our focal cerebral ischemia model which has been used for many years is introduced. With elucidation of the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemia, various pharmaceutical agents have appeared recently in the clinical setting and our experimental trials on the treatment of cerebral ischemia are also introduced. From the clinical aspect, practical methods of treatment including antiplatelet therapy are explained. Cerebrovascular dementia and its prevention are also described. |
