  2. Brain ischemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_ischemia

    The causes of brain ischemia vary from sickle cell anemia to congenital heart defects. Symptoms of brain ischemia can include unconsciousness, blindness, problems with coordination, and weakness in the body. Other effects that may result from brain ischemia are stroke, cardiorespiratory arrest, and irreversible brain damage.

  3. Cerebral hypoxia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cerebral_hypoxia

    Damage to the Broca's area and the Wernicke's area of the brain (left side) typically causes problems with speech and language. Damage to the right side of the brain may interfere with the ability to express emotions or interpret what one sees. Damage on either side can cause paralysis of the opposite side of the body. [citation needed]

  4. Electrostatic discharge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrostatic_discharge

    A charged device model (CDM) test is used to define the ESD a device can withstand when the device itself has an electrostatic charge and discharges due to metal contact. This discharge type is the most common type of ESD in electronic devices and causes most of the ESD damages in their manufacturing.

  5. Ischemic cascade - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ischemic_cascade

    An inflammatory response is mounted, and phagocytic cells engulf damaged but still viable tissue. Harmful chemicals damage the blood–brain barrier. Cerebral edema (swelling of the brain) occurs due to leakage of large molecules like albumins from blood vessels through the damaged blood brain barrier.

  6. Brain injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_injury

    Radiation and chemotherapy can lead to brain tissue damage by disrupting or stopping blood flow to the affected areas of the brain. This damage can cause long term effects such as but not limited to; memory loss, confusion, and loss of cognitive function. The brain damage caused by radiation depends on where the brain tumor is located, the ...

  7. Brain healing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain_healing

    Brain healing is the process that occurs after the brain has been damaged. If an individual survives brain damage, the brain has a remarkable ability to adapt. When cells in the brain are damaged and die, for instance by stroke, there will be no repair or scar formation for those cells.

  8. Posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posterior_reversible...

    In PRES secondary to other causes, the blood vessel damage has been attributed to other mechanisms. The "cytotoxic" theory suggests that it is direct cell damage by toxins (usually medications) that precipitates the edema. The "immunogenic" theory suggests a role for the immune system (specifically T cells).

  9. Primary and secondary brain injury - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_and_secondary...

    Another factor in secondary injury is loss of cerebral autoregulation, the ability of the brain's blood vessels to regulate cerebral blood flow. [5] Other factors in secondary damage are breakdown of the blood–brain barrier, edema, ischemia and hypoxia. [15] Ischemia is one of the leading causes of secondary brain damage after head trauma. [9]
