The paper shows that spike synchrony, not just E/I balance, causes steep 1/f slopes in EEG signals, especially under bursting patterns.

This paper introduces a method to measure absolute cerebral metabolic rate of oxygen in rat brains using optical imaging techniques and validates it against MR and PET measurements.

The paper shows that overnight caloric restriction before cardiac arrest and resuscitation improves survival and neurological outcomes in rodents, independent of SIRT-1 and BDNF.

The paper measures cerebral perfusion and metabolism metrics post-cardiac arrest in rats to assess severity and prognosis, finding that CBF/CMRO2 ratio at 1 min post-resuscitation predicts neurological recovery with 87% accuracy.

The paper characterizes spreading depolarization and repolarization during cardiac arrest in a rodent model and links their timing to neurological recovery outcomes.
