  1. The present study was designed to follow neuroinflammation after ischemic brain injury in the long-term survival rat model.

  2. Hypomorphic Notch 3 alleles link Notch signaling to ischemic cerebral small-vessel disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 36 out of 100. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America 2011-05-09 Genetics

    The most common monogenic cause of small-vessel disease leading to ischemic stroke and vascular dementia is the neurodegenerative syndrome cerebral autosomal-dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CADASIL), which is associated with mutations in the Notch 3 receptor.

  3. Normal-appearing white matter in ischemic leukoaraiosis: a diffusion tensor MRI study

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 47 out of 100. Neurology 2001-12-01 Brain scans and imaging

    Ischemic leukoaraiosis is a consistent concomitant of vascular dementia.
