Fever is associated with higher stroke mortality and poor outcome, but it is yet unknown whether this association is causative or epiphenomenal. In temporary brain ischemia rodent models hypothermia results in a significant increase in the number of surviving neurons and smaller infarction size as

Cognitive and neurological dysfunction after coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG) is common and multi-factorial in origin. Causative factors include cerebral Embolization (1), cerebral ischemia reperfusion (2), cerebral hyperthermia after discontinuation of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) (3), and the
