The potential link between acromegaly and risk of acute ischemic stroke in patients with pituitary adenoma: a new perspective
AbstractAcromegaly is an endocrine disorder due to the excess production of growth hormone (GH) from the anterior pituitary gland after closed epiphyseal growth plates. Acromegaly is mainly caused by benign GH-secreting pituitary adenoma. Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is one of the most common cardiovascular complications. It ranks second after ischemic heart disease (IHD) as a cause of disability and death in high-income countries globally. Thus, this review aimed to elucidate the possible link between acromegaly and the development of AIS. The local effects of acromegaly in the development of AIS are related to the develop...

Investigation of Factors That Affect the Quality of Life After a Stroke
Adv Exp Med Biol. 2023;1425:437-442. doi: 10.1007/978-3-031-31986-0_42.ABSTRACTStroke, as a disease, describes a group of disorders characterized by the presence of central nervous system symptoms either as a result of ischemia (ischemic stroke) or bleeding (hemorrhagic stroke). The appearance of a stroke results in a permanent physical or cognitive disability. The stroke incidence is the third cause of death after heart disease and cancer, and is the main cause of long-term disability.The effects of a stroke on a patient's daily life, and hence on his quality of life, are intense and long-lasting. These include memory pro...

Physiotherapists' decision-making about transition to independent walking in hospital after stroke: a qualitative study
CONCLUSIONS: Decision-making about independent walking for people in a hospital after a stroke is complex. Improved guidance about clinical assessment of capacity and determining acceptable risk may enable physiotherapists to engage more in shared decision-making.IMPLICATIONS FOR REHABILITATIONRegaining independence in walking after a stroke comes with the potential risk of falls.Assessment of walking safety should be specific to the complexity of the situation and consider perception and cognition.Benefits of activity and autonomy, and the risk of falls need to be considered in decisions about walking independence.Patient...

Small molecule inhibitors of NLRP3 inflammasome and GSK-3 β in the management of traumatic brain injury: A review
Eur J Med Chem. 2023 Aug 9;259:115718. doi: 10.1016/j.ejmech.2023.115718. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTraumatic brain injury (TBI) is a debilitating mental condition which causes physical disability and morbidity worldwide. TBI may damage the brain by direct injury that subsequently triggers a series of neuroinflammatory events. The activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and dysregulated host immune system has been documented in various neurological disorders such as TBI, ischemic stroke and multiple sclerosis. The activation of NLRP3 post-TBI increases the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines and caspase-1, which are majo...
