BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Brain temperature may be an important factor governing
the extent of neuronal injury associated with stroke. The goal of this study was to develop a …

Objective Pyrexia is associated with poor outcome after stroke, but the temperature changes
in the brain after stroke are poorly understood. We used magnetic resonance spectroscopic …

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Cerebral thermoregulation remains poorly understood.
Temperature dysregulation is deeply implicated in the potentiation of cerebrovascular …

Acute ischemic stroke is characterized by dynamic changes in metabolism and
hemodynamics, which can affect brain temperature. We used proton magnetic resonance …

Article abstract-Background: Brain temperature has been measured only occasionally in
humans. After head trauma, a temperature gradient in brain temperature compared with …

Transient forebrain ischemia was induced in rats whose brain temperature was 31, 33, 35,
38, or 40° C. The development of regional injury was followed using magnetic resonance …

We have tested whether small intraischemic variations in brain temperature influence the
outcome of transient ischemia. To measure brain temperature, a thermocouple probe was …

Pyrexia soon after stroke is associated with severe stroke and poor functional outcome. Few
studies have assessed brain temperature after stroke in patients, so little is known of its …

The remarkable temperature sensitivity of the brain is widely recognized and has been
studied for its role in the potentiation of ischemic and other neurologic injuries. Pyrexia …

Elucidation of the role of cerebral hyperthermia as a secondary factor that worsens outcome
after brain injury, and the therapeutic application of modest brain hypothermia would benefit …
