The chronological changes in the pattern of 31P magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) associated with cerebral infarction were studied in rats. 31P MRS of chronic infarction (1 month after induction of infarction) clearly showed a pattern distinct from that of normal brain. In chronic infarction, the relative phosphomonoester (PME) level was found to be significantly higher and relative phosphocreatine (PCr) level significantly lower compared to normal brain. The intracellular pH and the relative inorganic phosphate (Pi) level did not show any significant differences. Histological examination indicated that the 31P MRS pattern of chronic infarction reflects gliosis.

D002544 Cerebral Infarction The formation of an area of NECROSIS in the CEREBRUM caused by an insufficiency of arterial or venous blood flow. Infarcts of the cerebrum are generally classified by hemisphere (i.e., left vs. right), lobe (e.g., frontal lobe infarction), arterial distribution (e.g., INFARCTION, ANTERIOR CEREBRAL ARTERY), and etiology (e.g., embolic infarction).

D002908 Chronic Disease Diseases which have one or more of the following characteristics: they are permanent, leave residual disability, are caused by nonreversible pathological alteration, require special training of the patient for rehabilitation, or may be expected to require a long period of supervision, observation, or care (Dictionary of Health Services Management, 2d ed). For epidemiological studies chronic disease often includes HEART DISEASES; STROKE; CANCER; and diabetes (DIABETES MELLITUS, TYPE 2).
