Characterization of Behaviour and Remote Degeneration Following Thalamic Stroke in the Rat

Characterization of Behaviour and Remote Degeneration Following Thalamic Stroke in the Rat

Subcortical ischemic strokes are among the leading causes of cognitive impairment. Selective atrophy of remote brain regions connected to the infarct is thought to contribute to deterioration of cognitive functions. The mechanisms underlying this secondary degenerative process are incompletely under...
