Abstract
Nontraumatic intracerebral hemorrhage is an important health issue. Although common causes such as hypertension and cerebral amyloid angiopathy predominantly affect the elderly, there exists a spectrum of uncommon etiologies that contribute to the overall incidence of intracerebral hemorrhage. The identification of these rare causes is essential for targeted clinical management, informed prognostication, and strategic secondary prevention where relevant. This topical review explores the uncommon intracerebral hemorrhage causes and provides practical clues for their clinical and imaging identification. By expanding the clinician's differential diagnosis, this review aims to bridge the gap between standard intracerebral hemorrhage classification systems and the nuanced reality of clinical practice.

Abstract
Background: Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST) is a rare manifestation of thrombosis commonly caused by thrombophilia, hormonal-related factors, non-cerebral malignancy, and hematologic diseases. The aim of this review was to identify and summarize rare CVST cases. Methods: A literature search of the Medline database was performed in November 2022. CVST cases of a common cause were excluded. Demographic and clinical data were extracted. Eligible cases were categorized into inflammatory, primary CNS tumors, post-operative/traumatic, and idiopathic groups to allow statistical group comparisons. Results: 76 cases were analyzed. Idiopathic CVST was most frequently reported followed by inflammatory, post-traumatic/operative and primary CNS tumor causes. The intracranial hemorrhage rate was 23.7% and it was found to increase in the inflammatory group (45.8%). Anticoagulation was used in the majority of cases and it was significantly related to better outcomes. A low rate of anticoagulation use (43.8%) was found among CVST cases in the post-operative/traumatic group. The overall mortality rate was 9.8%. 82.4% of patients showed significant early improvement. Conclusions: Most rare CVST cases were either of idiopathic or inflammatory origin. Interestingly, hemorrhage occurred often he idiopathic CVST cases. A low rate of anticoagulation use in neurosurgical CVST cases after trauma or head surgery was observed.

Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 exerts protective role in intracerebral hemorrhage-induced secondary brain injury in rats. Brain Res Bull 2020; 165:169-177. [PMID: 33053433 DOI: 10.1016/j.brainresbull.2020.09.023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2020] [Revised: 08/23/2020] [Accepted: 09/30/2020] [Indexed: 10/23/2022]
Abstract
Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNPA1) is the most abundant and expressed widely member of the hnRNP family. It has been extensively studied in developmental biology, oncology, and neurodegenerative diseases, which has not been reported on in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) induced-secondary brain injury (SBI). The purpose of this study was to explore the role of hnRNPA1 exerts and its underlying mechanism in ICH-induced SBI. Experimental ICH models were established by injecting autologous heart blood into the basal ganglia region of rats and increased or inhibited hnRNPA1 expression through the hnRNPA1 plasmid and small interfering RNA. The results illustrated that the protein levels of hnRNPA1 are significantly elevated after ICH, and hnRNPA1 is transported from the nucleus to the cytoplasm. Upregulated hnRNPA1 could improve neurological function and the learning and memory ability decline after ICH-induced injury. Furthermore, TUNEL and FJB staining indicated that hnRNPA1 overexpression could reduce neuronal cell death and injury induced by ICH. However, downregulated hnRNPA1 damages neurological function and learning and memory abilities and aggravates neuronal cell degeneration and apoptosis. Consistently, the levels of Bcl-xl mRNA and Bcl-xl are elevated or decreased depending on the levels of hnRNPA1, which could be one of the mechanisms through which hnRNPA1 participates in ICH-induced neuronal cell death. In summary, hnRNPA1 plays a protective role in ICH-induced SBI via upregulating Bcl-xl expression, indicating that hnRNPA1 could be a potential target for ICH therapy.
