Title: The effects of cold-induced brain edema and white-matter ischemia on the somatosensory evoked response. Author: Sutton LN, Bruce DA, Welsh F. Journal: J Neurosurg; 1980 Aug; 53(2):180-4. PubMed ID: 7431056. Abstract: The electrophysiological effects of cold-lesion edema and white-matter ischemia were studied in cats by reference to the short-latency somatosensory evoked response. The primary cortical waves were found to be considerably delayed following a period of white-matter ischemia; hosever, cold-lesion edema appeared to have no significant effect on the evoked response. The authors conclude that vasogenic edema does not interfere with axonal functioning by an ischemic mechanism.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
