They had normal mice swim in frigid water; brain samples collected 24 hours later showed amplified synaptic signals for dopamine, as if the mice had taken a dose of cocaine.
After washes in water, brain sections were mounted on glass slides in 0.5% gelatin and 30% ethanol, and air-dried overnight.
Alternatively, cerebral oedema may also develop from failure of intracellular vascular autoregulation with resultant increases in brain water and brain volume [54], [56].
Dr. Omalu says the damage to Waters' brain was similar to two other NFL players who suffered severe depression - Mike Webster, who became homeless and cognitively impaired before his death, and Terry Long, who, like Waters, took his own life.
Furthermore, the brain accommodates to HTS-induced sustained hypernatremia by intracellular idiogenic osmoles accumulation, which raises brain water content, restores brain volume, and leads to rebound increased ICP [12, 20].

Rosiglitazone significantly improved mortality, neurological scores, brain water content, blood brain barrier (BBB) and apoptosis compared with the vehicle group within 24 h after SAH.
Although there are contradictory data between animal models in the accumulation of organic osmolytes and brain water, a regulatory brain volume increase would be expected to equalise the hyperosmolarity associated with AKI.
But after an hour on the water my brain was sapped from concentrating on the technique and balance.
