Effects of a period of asphyxia during birth on spatial learning in the rat.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Infantile hemangioma (IH) is the most frequent vascular tumor of early childhood. Recently, propranolol, a nonselective β1- and β2-adrenoceptor inhibitor, was introduced into the therapy of severe proliferating IH with excellent results. However, the underlying mechanism of action of propranolol is still unc...
