title: [Status of the "dead point" of blood flow in anastomoses of superficial cerebral arteries as affected by an acute increase of blood pressure].
abstract: Changes in pial arteries diameter and the condition of blood flow "dead point" in arterial anastomoses were established using the brain window during an acute increase of mean arterial pressure (MAP) induced by intravenous injection of norepinephrine (NE) with microcineangiography and the analysis of films and frames on a montage table and TAS ("Leitz"). During an acute increase of MAP the movement of blood flow "dead point" in anastomoses and the expansion of plasma segments occurred much more frequently than in normotension. The stabilization of blood flow "dead point" was observed at high constant MAP. Pronounced dilation of both pial arteries and veins first occurred in anastomoses, then spread to arterial branches. It is assumed that high vulnerability of the brain vessels of the borderline zones is due to breakthrough in autoregulation of cerebral blood flow on its upper limit and depends on the repeatedly changing directions of the blood flow and its moving "dead point", as the peripheral resistance of arterial anastomoses-forming branches under these circumstances changes in an irregular manner.
