A model of brain ischemia induced by staged ligation of the left and right common carotid arteries has been developed in experiments on rats and is recommended for evaluation of the efficiency of drugs of various pharmacological groups.
Abstract
A model of brain ischemia induced by staged ligation of the left and right common carotid arteries has been developed in experiments on rats. The use to this model led to reduction of animal mortality. On days 2-5 after the second ligature, the animals lost weight, the level of their CNS vulnerability increased, the volume of perceived information reduced, adaptation to environmental conditions and reproduction of conditioned reflexes were disordered. Focal and diffuse destructive changes in the nerve and glia cells were found in the cerebral cortex, hippocampus, and thalamic nuclei. The severity of disorders in the blood supply to the brain depended on the interval between ligation of the carotid arteries. This recommends this model for evaluation of the efficiency of drugs of various pharmacological groups.

Pipoxolan Ameliorates Cerebral Ischemia via Inhibition of Neuronal Apoptosis and Intimal Hyperplasia through Attenuation of VSMC Migration and Modulation of Matrix Metalloproteinase-2/9 and Ras/MEK/ERK Signaling Pathways

TL;DR: PIPO is protective in models of ischemia/reperfusion-induced cerebral infarction, carotid artery ligation-induced intimal hyperplasia and VSMC migration both in vivo and in vitro.

Feasibility of IVIM parameters from diffusion-weighted imaging at 11.7T MRI for detecting ischemic changes in common carotid artery occlusion rats.

TL;DR: All three models were able to identify cerebral ischemic change and damage as IVIM parameter change among three phases and the kurtosis model could identify the parameter changes in more regions than the other two models.

Global and regional burden of disease and risk factors, 2001: systematic analysis of population health data

TL;DR: Despite uncertainties about mortality and burden of disease estimates, the findings suggest that substantial gains in health have been achieved in most populations, countered by the HIV/AIDS epidemic in Sub-Saharan Africa and setbacks in adult mortality in countries of the former Soviet Union.

Animal Models of Ischemic Stroke. Part Two: Modeling Cerebral Ischemia

TL;DR: In the first part of the review animal models developed for studying stroke related risk factors are described while this section discusses specific models that have been created for mimicking different types of stroke, focal and global ischemia in an experimental setup.

Laser-Doppler Scanning of Local Cerebral Blood Flow and Reserve Capacity and Testing of Motor and Memory Functions in a Chronic 2-Vessel Occlusion Model in Rats

TL;DR: Memory retention function remained impaired after BCO, as did the acetazolamide response, which correlated with motor score and was inversely related to maze exploration time, in a pathophysiological setting similar to hemodynamic insufficiency in humans.

Expression changes of the mRNA of Alzheimer's disease related factors in the permanent ischemic rat brain.

TL;DR: The rat with permanent occlusion of the bilateral common carotid arteries (2VO) is useful model for the study of dementia and results suggest that alpha7NicR expression was enhanced at early stage of brain ischemia.
