Computed Tomography Angiography Quantification of Intracranial and Extracranial Vascular Narrowing in Ischemic Stroke: Differences Between Patients With and Without Illicit Drug Use
CONCLUSIONS: By using computed tomography angiography, we found that stroke patients with history of cocaine consumption had a higher incidence of intracranial circulation narrowing compared with matched controls.PMID:36055121 | DOI:10.1097/RCT.0000000000001367

Hypoxanthine is a pharmacodynamic marker of ischemic brain edema modified by glibenclamide
Cell Rep Med. 2022 Jun 9:100654. doi: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2022.100654. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBrain edema after a large stroke causes significant morbidity and mortality. Here, we seek to identify pharmacodynamic markers of edema that are modified by intravenous (i.v.) glibenclamide (glyburide; BIIB093) treatment. Using metabolomic profiling of 399 plasma samples from patients enrolled in the phase 2 Glyburide Advantage in Malignant Edema and Stroke (GAMES)-RP trial, 152 analytes are measured using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Associations with midline shift (MLS) and the matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MM...
