Calcium Channel Subunit α2δ-1 as a Potential Biomarker Reflecting Illness Severity and Neuroinflammation in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Cerebral infarction (commonly known as ischemic stroke) is a leading cause of morbidity, mortality and disability worldwide. Activation of presynaptic voltage-gated calcium channels (VGCCs) and glutamate release plays a central role in neuronal necrosis after cerebral ischemia.1,2 Previous studies seemed to be encouraging that nimodipine, a dihydropyridine calcium channel antagonist, had a significant benefit in mortality and neurologic outcome in patients with mild stroke or within 12 hours of stroke, although there was still controversial.

Carotid Calcium Volume and Stenosis after Stent Implantation
Internal carotid artery (ICA) stenosis could be treated with stent placement. It was hypothesized that calcium amount could be predictive of vessel stenosis after stent placement. We utilised computed tomography (CT) angiography to quantify volume of calcium material in bulbar ICA.

miR-134-5p inhibition reduces infarct-induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis via Creb1 upregulation
Patients presenting with symptoms related to acute coronary syndrome account for a total of 5% to 10% of all visits to the emergency department.1,2 However, the ability to accurately diagnose and treat patients that present with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is often challenging and time-consuming. Following AMI-induced ischemia, many pathological changes occur to the cardiomyocytes, including reactive oxygen species (ROS) overload, calcium dyshomeostasis, metabolic dysfunction, and cell death.

Intracranial Artery Calcium Burden Predicts Recurrent Cerebrovascular Events in Transient Ischaemic Attack Patients
Background: Patients with initial transient ischaemic attack (TIA) subsequently have a higher risk of recurrent TIA or acute ischemic stroke (AIS). The role of scoring intracranial arterial calcification (IAC) in predicting the prevalence of stroke remains unclear. We aim to evaluate if radiological CT calcium score measuring IAC burden could predict future ischemic events in a cohort of TIA patients. Methods: We studied consecutive patients from July 2014 to December 2015 who presented with first episode of TIA.

Factors Influencing Quality of Life in Stroke Patients: Focus on Eating Habits
This study aimed to identify lifestyle factors about eating habits that may affect the quality of life (QOL) in elderly stroke patients. Methods: Fifty elderly patients with a first-ever stroke were enrolled. QOL was assessed by the Stroke and Aphasia QOL Scale-39-J. Lifestyle factors about eating habits were collected using questionnaires (Questions 1-17) for the intake of salt, calcium, magnesium, potassium, taurine, fiber, and protein, and the frequency of breakfast.

Evaluation of the Differences in the Effects of Antihypertensive Drugs on Blood Pressure Variability by 24-Hour Ambulatory Blood Pressure Monitoring in Chronic Cerebrovascular Disease
It has been suggested that antihypertensive drug therapy is attributable to the lower blood pressure variability, we investigated the effects of 4 classes of antihypertensives on the blood pressure variability; in addition, we also compared the effects among 4 calcium channel blockers.

The Possible Damaged Mechanism and the Preventive Effect of Monosialotetrahexosylganglioside in a Rat Model of Cerebral Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury
The pathogenesis of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury (CIRI) is not completely clear and therapies are limited now. Therefore, our study aimed to investigate the possible pathogenesis and preventive approach of CIRI through analyzing changes of aspartate (Asp), glutamate (Glu), mitochondrial calcium (MCa), calmodulin (CaM), and malondialdehyde (MDA) contents and ultramicropathology in hippocampus and cerebral cortex of ischemic susceptible injured regions and the effect of monosialotetrahexosylganglioside (GM1) in the rat model of CIRI.

Calcified Carotid Plaques Show Double Symptomatic Peaks According to Agatston Calcium Score
The precise mechanism of carotid calcification formation and its clinical significance including the difference in outcomes compared with coronary artery have not been clearly elucidated yet. We applied the calcium score for analyzing carotid plaque calcification in focus on its relationship with symptoms and discuss the difference in transitional patterns and the clinical outcome in comparison with calcified coronary plaques.

Recurrent Extracranial Internal Carotid Artery Vasospasm Diagnosed by Serial Magnetic Resonance Angiography and Superselective Transarterial Injection of a Calcium Channel Blocker
In conclusion, we recommend intensive radiologic follow-up at the acute stage and therapeutic catheter angiography when the bilateral lesion is evident because bilateral occlusion of the ICA could lead to a catastrophic condition.

Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter Opener Spermine Attenuates the Cerebral Protection of Diazoxide through Apoptosis in Rats
Conclusions: Results in our study suggested that diazoxide improved neurologic deficits, decreased infarct volume in cortex but not in subcortex, and apoptosis in cortex against ischemia/reperfusion injury is mediated by spermine.
