Abstract
The excessive transfer of water from blood to brain tissue during the development of edema is dependent upon a series of interrelated circulatory, vascular and tissue factors. The circulatory factors have long since been the subject of research19,9,10. The most important role is certainly played by the intravascular pressure which is forcing the water across the vascular walls into the cerebral tissue9,10,8,12,4,l. The cerebral blood pressure (i.e. predominantly the pressure in the brain capillaries) is, on the one hand, dependent upon the systemic arterial and venous pressures, and, on the other hand, on the cerebral arterial resistance.
