In-Pipeline Stenosis: Incidence, Predictors, and Clinical Outcomes.

abstract：OBJECTIVE:Cerebral autoregulation maintains a relatively stable cerebral blood flow over a range of perfusion pressures. During exercise, regional cerebral blood flow may be elevated in particular areas of the brain. This case report presents the impact of aerobic exercise on intracranially measured pressure and brain ...
