Abstract
The recently published DISCHARGE-1 trial supports the observations of earlier autopsy and neuroimaging studies that almost 70% of all focal brain damage after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage are anemic infarcts of the cortex, often also affecting the white matter immediately below. The infarcts are not limited by the usual vascular territories. About two-fifths of the ischemic damage occurs within ~ 48 h; the remaining three-fifths are delayed (within ~ 3 weeks). Using neuromonitoring technology in combination with longitudinal neuroimaging, the entire sequence of both early and delayed cortical infarct development after subarachnoid hemorrhage has recently been recorded in patients. Characteristically, cortical infarcts are caused by acute severe vasospastic events, so-called spreading ischemia, triggered by spontaneously occurring spreading depolarization. In locations where a spreading depolarization passes through, cerebral blood flow can drastically drop within a few seconds and remain suppressed for minutes or even hours, often followed by high-amplitude, sustained hyperemia. In spreading depolarization, neurons lead the event, and the other cells of the neurovascular unit (endothelium, vascular smooth muscle, pericytes, astrocytes, microglia, oligodendrocytes) follow. However, dysregulation in cells of all three supersystems-nervous, vascular, and immune-is very likely involved in the dysfunction of the neurovascular unit underlying spreading ischemia. It is assumed that subarachnoid blood, which lies directly on the cortex and enters the parenchyma via glymphatic channels, triggers these dysregulations. This review discusses the neuroglial, neurovascular, and neuroimmunological dysregulations in the context of spreading depolarization and spreading ischemia as critical elements in the pathogenesis of cortical infarcts after subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Abstract
Poor outcomes in Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH) are in part due to a unique form of secondary neurological injury known as Delayed Cerebral Ischemia (DCI). DCI is characterized by new neurological insults that continue to occur beyond 72 h after the onset of the hemorrhage. Historically, it was thought to be a consequence of hypoperfusion in the setting of vasospasm. However, DCI was found to occur even in the absence of radiographic evidence of vasospasm. More recent evidence indicates that catastrophic ionic disruptions known as Cortical Spreading Depolarizations (CSD) may be the culprits of DCI. CSDs occur in otherwise healthy brain tissue even without demonstrable vasospasm. Furthermore, CSDs often trigger a complex interplay of neuroinflammation, microthrombi formation, and vasoconstriction. CSDs may therefore represent measurable and modifiable prognostic factors in the prevention and treatment of DCI. Although Ketamine and Nimodipine have shown promise in the treatment and prevention of CSDs in SAH, further research is needed to determine the therapeutic potential of these as well as other agents.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is the most severe complication after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and cortical spreading depolarization (CSD) is believed to play a vital role in it. However, the dynamic changes in cerebral blood flow (CBF) in response to CSD in typical SAH models have not been well investigated. Here, SAH was established in mice with endovascular perforation. Subsequently, the spontaneous CBF dropped instantly and then returned to baseline rapidly. After KCl application to the cortex, subsequent hypoperfusion waves occurred across the groups, while a lower average perfusion level was found in the SAH groups (days 1-7). Moreover, in the SAH groups, the number of CSD decreased within day 7, and the duration and spreading velocity of the CSD increased within day 3 and day 14, respectively. Next, we continuously monitored the local field potential (LFP) in the prefrontal cortex. The results showed that the decrease in the percentage of gamma oscillations lasted throughout the whole process in the SAH group. In the chronic phase after SAH, we found that the mice still had cognitive deficits but experienced no obvious tissue damage. In summary, SAH negatively affects the CBF responses to CSD and the spontaneous LFP activity and causes long-term cognitive deficits in mice. Based on these findings, in the specific phase after SAH, DCI is induced or exacerbated more easily by potential causers of CSD in clinical practice (edema, erythrocytolysis, inflammation), which may lead to neurological deterioration.

Li L, Fu X, Qiu H, Shi P. Effects of cilostazol treatment for patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: A meta-analysis of 14 studies. J Clin Neurosci 2022; 99:190-203. [PMID: 35286971 DOI: 10.1016/j.jocn.2021.12.025] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/25/2021] [Revised: 12/04/2021] [Accepted: 12/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To perform an updated meta-analysis to comprehensively assess the efficacy and safety of cilostazol in preventing aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-related secondary complications. METHODS Electronic databases of PubMed, the Cochrane library, CNKI and Wanfang were searched on August 2021. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and standardized mean difference (SMD) were calculated for dichotomous and continuous outcomes, respectively. RESULTS A total of 14 studies [comprising 18,726 aneurysmal SAH patients (6654 in the cilostazol group and 12,072 in the control group)] performed in Japan or China were included. Compared with the control group, cilostazol treatment significantly reduced the median cerebral artery (SMD = -0.49; p < 0.001), improved the therapeutic efficacy (OR = 2.37; p = 0.009), decreased the incidence of symptomatic vasospasm/delayed cerebral ischemia (OR = 0.42; p < 0.001), severe angiographic vasospasm (OR = 0.54; p < 0.001), new cerebral infarction (OR = 0.33; p < 0.001), poor outcomes (OR = 0.86; p = 0.001), mortality (OR = 0.62; p < 0.001) and increased the incidence of no or mild angiographic vasospasm (OR = 1.94; p = 0.004), but did not induce more adverse events (OR = 1.08; p = 0.871). The mechanism of cilostazol treatment was to inhibit the production of tenascin-C (SMD = -1.46; p < 0.001). These results were hardly changed by subgroup analysis. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis indicates cilostazol may be an effective and safe drug for aneurysmal SAH patients. However, further trials involving other world populations are required to demonstrate the generalization of treatment effects of cilostazol.
