Hardback. Helps readers understand the limitations and the opportunities of modeling stroke in rodents and enable them to conduct experiments which can not only improve our understanding of the pathophysiology of this devastating disorder but also serve as the basis for developing new highly effective treatments. Editor(s): Dirnagl, Ulrich. Series: Neuromethods. Num Pages: 286 pages, 9 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: MMQ. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 254 x 178 x 17.

In view of the numerous failures of clinical trials aimed at improving stroke therapy, the role and potential benefit of experimentally modeling focal cerebral ischemia in rodents has been debated. When methods of systematic review and metaanalyis are applied, however, it turns out that experimental models actually faithfully predicted the negative outcomes of clinical trials. In addition, thrombolysis and neuroprotection by hypothermia, first described in animal models, are key examples of treatment modalities that have made it successfully into clinical practice. In Rodent Models of Stroke, an international consortium of authors aims at critically addressing the issues on a very ... Read more
