title: Effects of intravenous infusion of glycerol on regional cerebral blood flow in cerebral infarction.
abstract: Regional cerebral blood flow and its autoregulation after intravenous glycerol infusion have been studied in eight patients in the acute phase of cerebral infarction. Glycerol seems to improve the cerebral blood flow in the damaged region but does not seem to restore autoregulation.
