The Relationship Between Serum Netrin-1 Expression Levels and Prognosis in Revascularized Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
CONCLUSIONS: Serum netrin-1 expression levels in the acute phase are not significantly associated with prognosis in patients with AIS after revascularization.PMID:36424758 | DOI:10.31083/j.jin2106154

SARS-CoV-2 infection increases risk of intracranial hemorrhage
We examined 21 patients suffering from stroke and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and 9 (43%) of them were male. We compared relative frequencies using Fisher’s exact test. As we had few observations and many variables, we used principal component analysis (PCA) to reduce data dimensionality. We trained a linear support vector machine (SVM) on the first two PCs of the laboratory data to predict COVID-19.ResultsPatients suffering from stroke had either hypertension or SARS-CoV-2 infection, but seldom both (OR = 0.05, p = 0.0075). The presence of SARS-CoV-2 infection was strongly associated with the logarithm of CRP (p = 1.4...

Promise of Physiological Profiling to Prevent Stroke in People of African Ancestry: Prototyping Ghana
AbstractPurpose of ReviewWorldwide, compared to other racial/ethnic groups, individuals of African ancestry have an excessively higher burden of hypertension-related morbidities, especially stroke. Identifying modifiable biological targets that contribute to these disparities could improve global stroke outcomes. In this scoping review, we discuss how pathological perturbations in the renin –angiotensin–aldosterone pathways could be harnessed via physiological profiling for the purposes of improving blood pressure control for stroke prevention among people of African ancestry.Recent FindingsTranscontinental comparative...

AI Empowered Virtual Reality Integrated Systems for Sleep Stage Classification and Quality Enhancement
Insomnia is a common public health problem and an open biomedical research topic. Insomnia results in various health problems, including memory decline, decreases concentration and weakens problem-solving ability. The insufficient sleep also leads to skin ageing, heart disease, high blood pressure, arrhythmia and stroke. While it remains as a global health concern, sleep quality improvement using modern technologies, such as machine learning, classification technologies, virtual reality (VR), becomes an open and hot research problem. These modern technologies offer new curing solutions under certain conditions. In this pap...

Regulation of DAPK1 by Natural Products: An Important Target in Treatment of Stroke
Neurochem Res. 2022 Jun 8. doi: 10.1007/s11064-022-03628-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTStroke is a sudden neurological disorder that occurs due to impaired blood flow to an area of the brain. Stroke can be caused by the blockage or rupture of a blood vessel in the brain, called ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic stroke, respectively. Stroke is more common in men than women. Atrial fibrillation, hypertension, kidney disease, high cholesterol and lipids, genetic predisposition, inactivity, poor nutrition, diabetes mellitus, family history and smoking are factors that increase the risk of stroke. Restoring blood flow by repos...

Blood Pressure in Acute Stroke and Secondary Stroke Prevention
This article reviews current guidelines for early management of blood pressure (BP) and highlights the findings of recent investigative works.Recent FindingsIntensive blood pressure reduction after receiving alteplase has not been shown to improve outcomes. Patients with large vessel occlusions may benefit from lower blood pressure targets post-intervention. Retrospective analyses of large intracerebral hemorrhage trials suggest that specific subgroups of patients may disproportionately benefit from or be harmed by intensive BP reduction. Robust data for management of blood pressure in subarachnoid hemorrhage patients is l...

A Decade-long Comparison of Prestroke Health Behaviors Among Hypertensive Stroke Patients in Mainland China
This study used data from 2 cross-sectional studies conducted in the neurology departments of 3 hospitals in Guangzhou, China. In total, 110 hypertensive stroke patients were recruited in stage I (2008-2009), and 119 hypertensive stroke patients were recruited in stage II (2018-2019). Patients' stroke knowledge was measured by the Stroke Knowledge Questionnaire. Patients' prestroke health behavior was measured by the Health Behavior Scale for Stroke Patients. RESULTS: The total score of prestroke health behaviors significantly increased over the decade (P

Management of Intracerebral Hemorrhage: Update and Future Therapies
AbstractPurpose of ReviewIntracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) represents about 15% of all strokes in the USA, but almost 50% of fatal strokes. There are many causes of ICH, but the most common are hypertension and cerebral amyloid angiopathy. This review will discuss new advances in the treatment of intracerebral hemorrhage.Recent FindingsThe treatment of ICH focuses on management of edema, aggressive blood pressure reduction, and correction of coagulopathy. Early initiation of supportive medical therapies, including blood pressure management, in a neurological intensive care unit reduces mortality, but at present there is no de...
