2.1.3 Brain edema formation and volume swelling The brain water content was used to determine brain edema formation. For this purpose, after the experiments on the 8th day, the brains were removed and large blood vessels or blood clot were removed and dissected into the desired brain areas (...
The P f/P D ratios of the CDE (P f/P D = 7.52) and OSCs (P f/P D = 242.02) indicate an aqueous pore-facilitated water exchange and reveal a high-transfer region or “water shunt” in the cochlear apex. This “water shunt” explains experimentally determined phenomena of e...
We investigated the brain structure in iNPH using automatic ventricular volumetry, single-tensor diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and bi-tensor free-water (FW) imaging analyses while focusing on cognitive impairments before and after lumboperitoneal shunt surgery.Saito, Asami...
The inclusion criteria were: 1) 0–3 years of age; 2) CCHD diagnosed according to blood mixing from the left and right heart due to abnormal right to left shunt, children with persistent cyanosis (SpO2<92%) and pulmonary blood flow reduction; and 3) scheduled for heart surgery. The exclu...
Methods for securing human tissues comply with the tenets of the Declaration of Helsinki (2013). 2.2 Cataract surgery All the cataract surgeries were done by one experienced surgeon (HS) using the standard ultrasound phacoemulsification cataract surgery. Lens fiber cells of cataract patients were ...
