Abstract

AIM: To determine whether moderate hypothermia, applied after a hypoxic-ischaemic insult in neonatal rats, reduces cerebral damage. METHOD: Unilateral hypoxic-ischaemic brain damage was induced in 7 day old rats by left carotid ligation, followed by 120 minutes of normothermic exposure to 8% O2, followed by random selection to three hours of hypothermia (rectal temperature, mean (SD), 32.5 (0.4) degrees C) or normothermia (38.3 (0.4) degrees C). One hundred and one animals were used for brain temperature or blood chemistry studies and 24 for survival studies (7 days) with neuropathology, including cell counting as outcome measures. RESULTS: Thirty sections from each brain were histologically examined with respect to distribution and pattern of damage and given a score from 0 to 4. Animals treated with hypothermia had significantly less damage than normothermic animals (score 0.5 (0.3) vs 1.8 (0.5)). CONCLUSIONS: Posthypoxic hypothermia reduces brain damage in awake, unrestrained 7 day old rats.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
