DOI: 10.1007/s12028-022-01445-y
Abstract: Acute liver failure may make patients quickly drowsy and inattentive, and most of it has been attributed to the toxic effects of ammonia. Acute hepatic failure often results in rapid decline in consciousness and the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12975-017-0601-z
Abstract: In light of repeated translational failures with preclinical neuroprotection-based strategies, this preclinical study reevaluates brain swelling as an important pathological event in diabetic stroke and investigates underlying mechanism of the comorbidity-enhanced brain edema formation. Type… read more here.

DOI: 10.26508/lsa.202201402
Abstract: We present how reversible edema can reliably be induced in experimental cerebral malaria and show that it is associated with transcellular blood–brain barrier disruption and delayed microhemorrhages. Brain swelling occurs in cerebral malaria (CM) and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/biology11020274
Abstract: Simple Summary Physiological changes to the body can affect the brain. For example, inflammation that originates in the body can be sensed by the brain. In this study, we used an agent called resiquimod (R848)… read more here.
