Intravenous Fat Emulsion Does Not Significantly Alter Clotting Markers in Dabigatran-Treated Blood
AbstractDabigatran etexilate is an oral direct thrombin (Factor IIa) inhibitor approved for patients with atrial fibrillation and for management of risk of deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism. Dabigatran offers advantages over treatment with warfarin, including limited laboratory monitoring. It is equivalent in prevention of stroke and deep vein thrombosis with essentially equivalent complication rates. In contrast to warfarin, reversal of the anticoagulation is less well established. Idarucizumab is available for reversal, however supporting research is mixed; the agent also happens to be quite expensive making av...

Critical Issues and Recent Advances in Anticoagulant Therapy: A Review
Angelika Batta, Bhupinder S Kalra, Raj KhirasariaNeurology India 2019 67(5):1200-1212 As the population is aging, clinicians are coming across more patients with atrial fibrillation and venous thromboembolism requiring anticoagulation to prevent stroke and systemic embolisms. Due to a high prevalence and unfavorable consequences, managing thromboembolic diseases have become areas of clinical concern. Traditional anticoagulants like heparin, low molecular weight heparin and warfarin have been used for the prevention and treatment of venous and arterial thromboses. But, issues of bleeding, parenteral route of administration...

Association of Genetic Variants with Hyperhomocysteinemia in Indian Patients with Thrombosis
AbstractHyperhomocysteinemia known to be associated with increased thrombotic tendency has been considered as a risk factor for coronary artery disease, atherosclerosis, venous thrombosis, and stroke. There are three main genes MTHFR, cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) and methionine synthase (MS) and it's genetic variant that are known to influence the homocysteine metabolism leading to hyperhomocysteinemia. There is scarcity of Indian data on hyperhomocysteinemia and genetics variants in patients with thrombosis. Hence the objective of present study was to determine MTHFR, CBS, and MS genetic variants in thrombosis patien...

Spectrum of Cerebral Venous Thrombosis in Uttarakhand.
Conclusion: Septic CVT prognosis had better than non septic CVT. Hence, CVT presents with wide range of presentations and anticoagulation is the treatment. Septic CVT if intervened timely with proper antibiotics have better prognosis. Antibiotics are the mainstay of therapy for septic CVT. PMID: 31325261 [PubMed - in process]

Platelet Indices as a Marker of Severity in Non-diabetic NonHypertensive Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients.
Conclusion: In patients of ischemic stroke platelet indices may be used for predicting severity of motor deficit. Although larger sample size and multivariate analysis is required before this can be used regularly in clinical practice. PMID: 31325260 [PubMed - in process]

Neurological Involvement in Primary Systemic Vasculitis
Conclusion Neurological involvement is a common complication of PSV (Table 1), and neurologists play an important role in the identification and diagnosis of PSV patients with otherwise unexplained neurological symptoms as their chief complaint. This article summarizes the neurological manifestations of PSV and hopes to improve neuroscientists' understanding of this broad range of diseases. TABLE 1 Table 1. Common CNS and PNS involvements of primary systemic vasculitis. Author Contributions SZ conceived the article and wrote the manuscript. DY and GT reviewed and edited the manuscript. All authors ...

1 Ventricular assist devices: developments in asia and global outlook for the next 10 years
The advent of left ventricular assist systems to support patients with advanced-stage heart failure has been a 50 year odyssey, now available broadly to such patients.1 Engineering advances have ushered in an era of small, durable devices that can be fully implanted within the chest. Yet, haemocompatibility related adverse events, which emanate from the interaction between the device and the patient they support are manifest principally in increased stroke rates, de novo device thrombosis requiring replacement and in gastrointestinal bleeding (a peculiar adverse event resulting from the unnatural physiology of continuous f...

Subclinical Atherosclerosis in Primary Sj ögren's Syndrome: Does Inflammation Matter?
Conclusions The markers of endothelial activation and damage and of chronic inflammation investigated until now failed to result predictors of subclinical atherosclerosis or to be associated with increased risk of CV events in SS patients. This may suggest that other mechanisms are implicated with increased prevalence of subclinical atherosclerosis in SS or that these biomarkers exert a different mechanism in the pathogenesis of endothelial damage and in the induction of atherosclerosis. Surely, the relationship between the disease itself and inflammatory and immune dysfunction factors is quite complex and still to be cla...

A Child with Tuberculous Meningitis Complicated by Cortical Venous and Cerebral Sino-Venous Thrombosis
AbstractStroke is common in tuberculous meningitis. Stroke commonly affects the tubercular zone, comprising the anterior part of the thalamus, caudate and the internal capsule (anterior limb and genu). Stroke, in tuberculous meningitis is predominantly arterial ischemic stroke, and is due to infiltrative, proliferative or necrotizing arteritis. Rarely, aneurysm formation and mycotic aneurysms have also been described. The authors describe the clinical and autopsy findings of a 27-mo-old boy with tuberculous meningitis whose course was complicated by arterial and venous strokes, and nonresponse to adequate and appropriate a...

Innovations in acute stroke reperfusion strategies
Venugopalan Y Vishnu, MV Padma SrivastavaAnnals of Indian Academy of Neurology 2019 22(1):6-12 Vascular neurology is witnessing unprecedented innovations in the management of acute ischemic stroke, especially in reperfusion strategies. The emergence of mechanical thrombectomy with new generation devices has revolutionized the treatment of acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion. The reperfusion strategies are evolving with the extension of the window period for thrombolysis and endovascular therapy through the concept of “tissue clock” in addition to the established “time c...
