A novel mouse model of ischemic carotid artery disease.

<h4>Background</h4>Carotid artery occlusive disease gradually develops over time, eventually leading to cerebral infarction and high mortality rate. Animal models replicating cerebral infarction resulting from carotid artery occlusive disease have thus been developed to test potential no...

Cerebral blood flow (CBF) was measured at several time points. At 7 and 28 days post-operation, post-mortem brain samples were analyzed for ischemic changes.<h4>Results</h4>The mortality rate was 58.8% at 28 days post-operation.
