title: [Neuroprotective effect of cytoflavin in closed craniocerebral trauma].
abstract: The efficacy of a complex preparation cytoflavin was studied on rats with a model of closed craniocerebral trauma. Cytoflavin produced normalization of the energy exchange, lipid peroxidation, and antioxidant system functioning in nervous tissues. The treatment significantly reduced the degree of posttraumatic edemation in the brain. The cerebroprotective action of cytoflavin was somewhat superior to the effect of the reference drug solcoseryl.
