[Effect of short-term cerebral ischemia on the microcirculation in the rat mesentery].

The effect of brain ischemia, produced by constriction of the common carotid arteries, on microcirculation in the mesentery was studied in experiments on rats. The spreading and intensity of microcirculatory disturbances were dependent on duration of ischemia and post-ischemia. The state of systemic hemodynamics and microcirculation in the mesentery was compared. Possible mechanisms of the microcirculatory disturbances are discussed.
