Perinatal asphyxia (PA) is still a serious health problem associated with neuronal loss and morbidity. PA pathophysiology implies oxidative stress, cell damage and over activation of inflammatory response. The absence of ...

The potential neuroprotection of nicotinamide on the consequences of perinatal asphyxia was investigated with triple organotypic cultures. Perinatal asphyxia was induced in vivo by immersing foetuses-containing uterine ...

Hypoxia during birth is one of the leading childhood mortality worldwide and results in many neurodisabled survivors. Several lines of evidence demonstrated that reactive oxygen species are the final step in the ...

© 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature. The present report evaluates the effect of global perinatal asphyxia on several parameters of oxidative stress and cell viability in rat brain tissue ...

There is clinical and experimental evidence indicating that neurocircuitries of the hippocampus are vulnerable to hypoxia/ischemia occurring at birth, inducing, upon re-oxygenation/re-circulation, delayed neuronal ...

Objective: To evaluate the effects of perinatal asphyxia on the level of the response to transient otoacoustic emissions in infants. Methods: Otoacoustic emissions in 154 neonates were performed: 54 infants who suffered ...

Perinatal asphyxia (PA) is an obstetric complication occurring when the oxygen supply to the newborn is temporally interrupted. This health problem is associated with high morbimortality in term and preterm neonates. It ...

Birth asphyxia also termed perinatal asphyxia is an obstetric complication that strongly affects brain structure and function. Central nervous system is highly susceptible to oxidative damage caused by perinatal asphyxia ...

Perinatal asphyxia represents an important cause of severe neurological deficits including delayed mental and motor development, epilepsy, major cognitive deficits and blindness. However, at the moment, most of the therapeutic ...
