Cerebellum Susceptibility to Neonatal Asphyxia: Possible Protective Effects of N-Acetylcysteine Amide

Background. After perinatal asphyxia, the cerebellum presents more damage than previously suggested. Objectives. To explore if the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine amide (NACA) could reduce cerebellar injury after hypoxia-reoxygenation in a neonatal pig model. Methods. Twenty-four newborn pigs in two in...
