Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of mild hypothermia on endothelial cell of cerebral vessels in patients with moderate or severe cerebral infarction. Methods Sixty patients with moderate or severe cerebral infar-ction were divided into 2 groups: a mild hypothermia group (30 cases) and a non-mild hypothermia group (30 cases). Endothelin (ET), endothelial nitric oxide synthases(eNOS) and von Willebrand factor(vWF) were tested with RIA or ELISA. All the patients were treated with routine medication, in addition, those in mild hypothermia group were also treated with mild hypothermia. Results The ET and vWF levels of serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in patients of mild hypothermia group were significantly lower than those of non-mild pothermia group (P
