Long-term Outcomes and Risk Factors Related to Hydrocephalus After Intracerebral Hemorrhage
AbstractHydrocephalus after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common and treatable complication. However, the long-term outcomes and factors for predicting hydrocephalus have seldom been studied. The goal of this study was to determine the long-term outcomes and analyze the risk factors of hydrocephalus after ICH. A consecutive series of 1342 patients with ICH were reviewed from 2010 to 2016 to identify significant risk factors for hydrocephalus. Patients with a first-ever ICH without any prior diagnosis of hydrocephalus after ICH were followed up for survival status and cause of death. Risk factors for hydrocephalus wer...

Photothrombotic Stroke as a Model of Ischemic Stroke
AbstractThe search of effective anti-stroke neuroprotectors requires various stroke models adequate for different aspects of the ischemic processes. The photothrombotic stroke model is particularly suitable for the study of cellular and molecular mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration, neuroprotection, and neuroregeneration. It is a model of occlusion of small cerebral vessels, which provides detailed study of molecular mechanisms of ischemic cell death and useful for search of potential anti-stroke agents. Its advantages include well-defined location and size of ischemic lesion that are determined by the aiming of the la...
