Cerebral Ischemia. Cerebral ischemia or brain ischemia, is a condition that occurs when there isnât enough blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. This leads to limited oxygen supply or cerebral hypoxia and leads to the death of brain tissue, cerebral infarction, or ischemic stroke.erebral ischemia or brain ischemia, is a condition that occurs when there isnât enough blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand.
The slug is the unit of mass in the US common system of units, where the pound is the unit of force. The pound is therefore the unit of weight since weight is defined as the force of gravity on an object.hile the pound force and pound weight are the widely used units for commerce in the United States, their use is strongly discouraged in scientific work. The standard units for most of scientific work are the SI units. A newton can be seen to be the force required to accelerate 1 kg of mass at 1 m/s 2.
Similar units Edit. The blob or slinch (a portmanteau of the words slug and inch) is an inch version of the slug (1 slinch = 1 lb f Â·s 2 /in = 12 slugs).Slang terms for the slinch include the slugette. Metric units include the glug in the centimeter-gram-second system, and the mug, par, or MTE in the meter-kilogram-second system.he name slug, as a unit of inertia, was coined before 1900 by British physicist Arthur Mason Worthington, but it did not see any significant use until decades later. A 1928 textbook says: No name has yet been given to the unit of mass and, in fact, as we have developed the theory of dynamics no name is necessary.
