Is the protective action of chlorpromazine on the spinal cord of rabbits submitted to ischemia and reperfusion dose-dependent?
1) The neuroprotective action of CPZ is dose-dependent in the ischemic spinal cord of rabbits. The lower protective dose is 1 mg/kg, which is too high for human beings. 2) There is an inverse correlation between motor recovery and percentage of damaged neurons, and the critical point seems to be between 30% and 50%.
Exclusive human, maternal milk feeding since birth may prevent ROP of any stage in VLBW infants in the NICU.
