Will unpredictable side effects dim the promise of new Alzheimer ’s drugs?
A sea change is underway in the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease, where for the first time a drug that targets the disease’s pathology and clearly slows cognitive decline has hit the U.S. market. A related therapy will likely be approved in the coming months. As many neurologists, patients, and brain scientists celebrate, they’re also nervously eyeing complications from treatment: brain swelling and bleeding, which in clinical trials affected up to about one-third of patients and ranged from asymptomatic to fatal. The side effect—amyloid-related imaging abnormalities, or ARIA—remains mysterious. “We don’...

Reply: Association between triple therapy and major adverse cardiovascular events in COPD patients
We thank P. Almagro and P. Martinez-Camblor for their interest in our work and for their salient comments. While we agree that there is no universally accepted definition of major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE), the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Medicines Agency include nonfatal myocardial infarction and stroke as well as cardiovascular (CV) mortality in their MACE definition [1]. Importantly, this definition includes both haemorrhagic and ischaemic stroke [1–4]. In our study, we followed this classical "three-point" definition of MACE (including haemorrhagic strokes). While this definit...

MRI for all: Cheap portable scanners aim to revolutionize medical imaging
.news-article__hero--featured .parallax__element{ object-position: 47% 50%; -o-object-position: 47% 50%; } The patient, a man in his 70s with a shock of silver hair, lies in the neuro intensive care unit (neuro ICU) at Yale New Haven Hospital. Looking at him, you’d never know that a few days earlier a tumor was removed from his pituitary gland. The operation didn’t leave a mark because, as is standard, surgeons reached the tumor through his nose. He chats cheerfully with a pair of research associates who have come to check his progress with a new and potentially revolutionary device they are testing. The cylind...

As some hail new antibody treatment for Alzheimer ’s, safety and benefit questions persist
In a packed San Francisco conference room with a celebratory atmosphere, upbeat company representatives and scientists yesterday presented detailed clinical trial data on the first Alzheimer’s treatment shown to clearly, albeit modestly, slow the disease’s normal cognitive decline. The antibody therapy has buoyed a field marked by decades of failures. Now, it appears to be on the cusp of being greenlit by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Yet other researchers warn of potential risks, including brain swelling and brain hemorrhages that were linked to the recently disclosed deaths of two trial participants wh...

Trial of a prehospital intervention with traditional Chinese medicine for acute stroke (TRACE): Protocol for a mixed-methods research study
Discussion: The results of the TRACE study will provide preliminary evidence for the relationship between XNJI used within 24 h of onset and the presence of END on the third day after stroke onset; it will aid in improving the current knowledge regarding the early use of XNJI for stroke first aid.Clinical Trial Registration:clinicaltrials.gov, identifier NCT04275349

Data from New VOYAGER PAD Analyses at ACC.22 Reinforce Benefit of XARELTO ® (rivaroxaban) Plus Aspirin in Patients with Peripheral Artery Disease (PAD) and Various Co-Morbid Conditions
RARITAN, N.J., April 1, 2022 – The Janssen Pharmaceutical Companies of Johnson & Johnson today announced data from new analyses from the Phase 3 VOYAGER PAD clinical trial reinforcing the benefit of the XARELTO® (rivaroxaban) vascular dose (2.5 mg twice daily plus aspirin 100 mg once daily) in reducing severe vascular events in patients with PAD after lower-extremity revascularization (LER), a procedure that restores blood flow to the legs. Data from the two analyses demonstrate the role that the XARELTO® vascular dose plays in PAD patients with and without chronic kidney disease (CKD) and in PAD patients with and ...

The Current Role of Clevidipine in the Management of Hypertension
AbstractAcute hypertension, which may damage blood vessels, causes irreversible organ damage to the vasculature, central nervous system, kidney, and heart. Clevidipine, the first third-generation calcium channel antagonist approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the past 20 years, is an ultra-short-acting calcium channel blocker that inhibits L-type calcium channels with high clearance and low distribution, can be rapidly metabolized into the corresponding inactive acid, and is rapidly hydrolyzed into inactive metabolites by esterase in arterial blood. Clevidipine is the same as nicardipine in that the main p...

O-005 Comparison of on-label versus off-label treatment of intracranial aneurysms with the pipeline embolization devices
ConclusionIn real-world practice, off-label uses of PED can achieve similar safety and efficacy to on-label uses, though there may be a slightly higher rate of ischemic complications in off-label uses. Expert judgment is a useful supplement to official guidelines when assessing reasonable PED use beyond its approved indications.Disclosures S. Cler: None. D. Lauzier: None. A.

Modulation of α7nAchR by Melatonin Alleviates Ischemia and Reperfusion-Compromised Integrity of Blood-Brain Barrier Through Inhibiting HMGB1-Mediated Microglia Activation and CRTC1-Mediated Neuronal Loss
Cell Mol Neurobiol. 2021 Jul 1. doi: 10.1007/s10571-021-01122-2. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe only food and drug administration (FDA)-approved drug currently available for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke is tissue plasminogen activator (tPA), yet the therapeutic benefits of this drug are partially outweighed by the increased risk of hemorrhagic transformation (HT). Analysis of the NIH trial has shown that cigarette smoking protected tPA-treated patients from HT; however, the underlying mechanism is not clear. Nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChR) has shown anti-inflammatory effect and modulation nAChR could...

Off-label reduced-dose apixaban does not reduce hemorrhagic risk in Taiwanese patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation: A retrospective, observational study
East Asians are reportedly at high risk of anticoagulant-related bleeding; therefore, some physicians prefer to prescribe low-dose direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs). Little is known about the therapeutic effectiveness and safety of off-label reduced-dose apixaban in East Asians with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to investigate the effectiveness and safety of off-label reduced-dose apixaban in Taiwanese patients with nonvalvular AF. This retrospective cohort study enrolled 1073 patients with nonvalvular AF who took apixaban between July 2014 and October 2018 from 4 medical centers in southern Taiwan. Th...

Tenecteplase for Acute Ischemic Stroke Treatment
Semin Neurol DOI: 10.1055/s-0040-1722722The introduction of thrombolytic therapy in the 1990s has transformed acute ischemic stroke treatment. Thus far, intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) also known as alteplase is the only thrombolytic proven to be efficacious and approved by the United States Food and Drug Administration. But the thrombolytic agent tenecteplase (TNK) is emerging as a potential replacement for rt-PA. TNK has greater fibrin specificity, slower clearance, and higher resistance to plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 than rt-PA. Hence, TNK has the potential to provide superior lysis wi...

Inhibiting ferroptosis: A novel approach for stroke therapeutics.
Abstract Stroke ranks as the second leading cause of death across the globe. Despite advances in stroke therapeutics, no US Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved drugs that can minimize neuronal injury and restore neurological function are clinically available. Ferroptosis, a regulated iron-dependent form of nonapoptotic cell death, has been shown to contribute to stroke-mediated neuronal damage. Inhibitors of ferroptosis have also been validated in several stroke models of ischemia or intracerebral hemorrhage. Herein, we review the therapeutic activity of inhibitors of ferroptosis in stroke models. We furth...
