Task: Answer Verification
Input (English): Question: Does periischemic cerebral blood flow ( CBF ) explain beneficial effects of isoflurane on outcome from near-complete forebrain ischemia in rats?
Answer: The results indicate that improved histologic-behavioral outcome provided by isoflurane anesthesia cannot be explained by differential vasodilative effects of the anesthetic states before, during, or after severe forebrain ischemia. This study also shows severe postischemic delayed hypoperfusion that was not affected by choice of anesthetic or the presence of trimethaphan. Mechanisms other than effects on periischemic CBF must be responsible for beneficial effects of isoflurane in this model.
Output (English): no
