N omega-nitro-L-arginine attenuates early ischemic neuronal damage of prolonged focal cerebral ischemia and recirculation in rats.

abstract：:There have been reports that superior cervical ganglionectomy (SCG) is effective as a treatment for cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). On the other hand, denervation supersensitivity is supposed to play an important role in vasospasm. The two accounts contradict each other. To investigate thi...
