2. Cerebral hypoxia - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_hypoxia

   Cerebral hypoxia is a form of hypoxia (reduced supply of oxygen), specifically involving the brain; when the brain is completely deprived of oxygen, it is called cerebral anoxia. There are four categories of cerebral hypoxia; they are, in order of increasing severity: diffuse cerebral hypoxia (DCH), focal cerebral ischemia , cerebral infarction ...

3. Hypoxia (medicine) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxia_(medicine)

   Hypoxia can result from a failure at any stage in the delivery of oxygen to cells. This can include low partial pressures of oxygen in the breathing gas, problems with diffusion of oxygen in the lungs through the interface between air and blood, insufficient available hemoglobin, problems with blood flow to the end user tissue, problems with ...

4. Anoxic depolarization in the brain - Wikipedia

   Within a few minutes of anoxia onset in the turtle's brain there is decreased cerebral blood flow that eventually ceases. Meanwhile, glycolysis is stimulated to maintain a near optimum ATP production. [3] This compensatory stimulation of glycolysis occurs because, in the turtle's brain, cytochrome a and a 3 have a low affinity for oxygen. [13]

   They removed a slaughterhouse pig’s brain from its head and deprived it of oxygen at room temperature for four hours. Then, they hooked it up to their resuscitation machine and revived it—to ...

6. Brain ischemia - Wikipedia

   Brain ischemia has been linked to a variety of diseases or abnormalities. Individuals with sickle cell anemia, compressed blood vessels, ventricular tachycardia, plaque buildup in the arteries, blood clots, extremely low blood pressure as a result of heart attack, and congenital heart defects have a higher predisposition to brain ischemia in comparison to the average population.

   Subjects take part in hyperbaric oxygen therapy in Florida. There’s no cure for it, and it’s much more than skin-deep—aging takes a severe toll on our neurological well-being. Although ...
