Electrolyte Imbalance and Neurologic Injury
CNS Neurol Disord Drug Targets. 2023 Feb 15. doi: 10.2174/1871527322666230215144649. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeurologic injury continues to be a debilitating worldwide disease with high morbidity and mortality. The systemic sequelae of a neural insult often lead to prolonged hospital stays and challenging nutritional demands that contribute to poorer prognoses. Clinical management of a given condition should prioritize preserving the homeostatic parameters disrupted by inflammatory response cascades following the primary insult. This focused review examines the reciprocal relationship between electrolyte disturbance ...

Quantifying the amount of greater brain ischemia protection time with pre-hospital vs. in-hospital neuroprotective agent start
The objective of this study is to quantify the increase in brain-under-protection time that may be achieved with pre-hospital compared with the post-arrival start of neuroprotective therapy among patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy. In order to do this, a comparative analysis was performed of two randomized trials of neuroprotective agents: (1) pre-hospital strategy: Field administration of stroke therapy-magnesium (FAST–MAG) Trial; (2) in-hospital strategy: Efficacy and safety of nerinetide for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (ESCAPE-NA1) Trial. In the FAST-MAG trial, among 1,041 acute ischemic stroke p...

Admission Low Magnesium Level Is Associated with In-Hospital Mortality in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients
In this study, we investigated the association between magnesium levels on hospital admission and in-hospital mortality in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients.Methods: A total of 2,485 AIS patients, enrolled from December 2013 to May 2014 across 22 hospitals in Suzhou city, were included in this study. The patients were divided into 4 groups according to their level of admission magnesium: Q1 (
