Up-regulation of serotonin receptor 2B mRNA and protein in the peri-infarcted area of aged rats and stroke patients
Introduction
Stroke is the second-leading global cause of death behind heart disease, accounting for 11.13% of total deaths worldwide in 2015 [1]. Studies of stroke have demonstrated age and gender effects on incidence, functional recovery and mortality, not only in humans but also in animal models [2-4]. Therefore, studies on physiologically complex organisms including rats, mice and non-human primates are required to investigate the molecular mechanisms of aging in humans, to predict human responses to age-related diseases and also the response of aged organisms to therapeutic interventions. Since epidemiological studies have revealed that human stroke occurs more often in old ages (more than 80 years) than late middle age (60-79 years) [1], it is advisable to use rats of appropriate age to study the behavioral and molecular mechanisms underlying functional recover

Soviet occupation of Romania
Period of Romania beneath the Soviet occupation
The Soviet occupation of Romania refers[1] to the period from 1944 to August 1958, during which the Soviet Union maintained a significant military presence in Romania. The fate of the territories held by Romania after 1918 that were incorporated into the Soviet Union in 1940 fryst vatten treated separately in the article on Soviet occupation of Bessarabia and nordlig Bukovina.
During the Eastern Front offensive of 1944, the Soviet Army occupied the northwestern part of Moldaviaas a result of armed combat that took place between the months of April and August of that year, while Romania was still an ally of Nazi Germany. The rest of the territory was occupied after Romania changed sides in World War II, as a result of the royal coup launched bygd KingMichael inom on August 23, 1944.
