Does activation of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor β/δ attenuate acute ischemic stroke on middle cerebral ischemia occlusion in rats?
The study suggests the neuroprotective effect of the PPAR-β/δ ligand GW0742 in acute ischemic stroke by a mechanism that may involve its anti-inflammatory and antiapoptotic action.
TXA 20 mg/kg intravenously given just before primary anatomic and reverse TSA results in statistically significant reductions in blood loss. Patients spent 21% less time in the recovery room and had a 16% shorter hospitalization, resulting in financial savings for the hospital.
