Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a serious neurological disease with a 30-day mortality rate of 34-50%. Rehabilitation can reduce disability and improve recovery from a stroke; however, it is uncertain whether early rehabilitation is safe. There are many studies and reviews on rehabilitation for chronic conditions, but there is not enough information on the details of rehabilitation in the acute and subacute phases of ICH. We analyzed clinical trials from the electronic databases PubMed, PubMedCentral, Medline, Cochrane Library, Embase, Scopus and PEDro. Based on the data, we determined that early rehabilitation of patients with ICH has beneficial effects on improving ADL scores, motor function, functional independence, quality of life, improved gait, improved trunk control and reduced mortality. Varying the duration and intensity of rehabilitation in patients with ICH may improve health status, functional outcomes and reduce the length of stay in the hospital. The earliest protocol for initiating rehabilitation after ICH included up to 24 h after stroke onset. The medical literature indicates the need for more randomized controlled group trials of early rehabilitation in patients with acute and subacute ICH with a precise timing of rehabilitation initiation. This narrative review aims to summarize the existing evidence and provide insights into the current state of knowledge regarding the safety of early rehabilitation. There is a need for a clear definition of "early rehabilitation" when determining the most appropriate time to begin rehabilitation therapy.

Front Pharmacol 2024; 15:1360932. [PMID: 38881880 PMCID: PMC11177091 DOI: 10.3389/fphar.2024.1360932] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Accepted: 05/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/18/2024] Open
Abstract
Background Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide (NBP) has emerged as a potential therapeutic agent for cerebral hemorrhage, despite not being included in current guideline recommendations. Investigating the underlying physiological and pathological mechanisms of Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide in cerebral hemorrhage treatment remains a critical area of research. Objective This review aims to evaluate the efficacy of Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide in cerebral hemorrhage treatment and elucidate its potential biological mechanisms, thereby providing evidence to support treatment optimization. Methods A comprehensive search of seven electronic databases (PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, VIP, and Wanfang Database) was conducted for studies published up to September 2023. Screening and data extraction were performed by a team of researchers. The Cochrane collaboration tool was utilized for risk bias assessment, and Revman 5.3 along with Stata 17.0 were employed for statistical analysis. Outcomes We searched 254 literature, and 19 were included in this meta-analysis. The results showed that Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide improved the clinical efficacy rate (RR = 1.25, 95% CI 1.19-1.31; p = 0.00), quality of life (MD = 13.93, 95% CI: 11.88-15.98; p = 0.000), increased cerebral blood flow and velocity, reduced cerebral edema volume, Hcy concentration, and did not have obvious adverse reactions (RR = 0.68, 95% CI: 0.39-1.18; p = 0.10). Conclusion This meta-analysis is the first to demonstrate the potential of Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide in treating cerebral hemorrhage. It suggests that Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide may alleviate clinical symptoms by modulating neurological function and improving hemodynamics. Our findings provide robust evidence for incorporating Dl-3-n-Butylphthalide into cerebral hemorrhage treatment strategies, potentially guiding future clinical practice and research.

Clinical significance of intracranial hemorrhage after thrombectomy detected solely by magnetic resonance imaging and not by computed tomography. J Neurol Sci 2024; 460:122999. [PMID: 38705135 DOI: 10.1016/j.jns.2024.122999] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/05/2024] [Revised: 04/01/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Whether intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) detected using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) affects the clinical outcomes of patients with large-vessel occlusion (LVO) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT) remains unclear. This study investigated the clinical features of ICH after MT detected solely by MRI. METHODS This was a retrospective analysis of patients with acute ischemic stroke and occlusion of the internal carotid artery or middle cerebral artery treated with MT between April 2011 and March 2021. Among 632 patients, patients diagnosed with no ICH using CT, with a pre-morbid modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score ≤ 2, and those who underwent MRI including T2* and computed tomography (CT) within 72 h from MT were enrolled. The main outcomes were the association between ICH detected solely by MRI and clinical outcomes at 90 days. Poor clinical outcomes were defined as mRS score > 2 at 90 days after onset. RESULTS Of the 246 patients, 29 (12%) had ICH on MRI (MRI-ICH(+)), and 217 (88%) were MRI-ICH(-). There was no significant difference between number of patients with MRI-ICH(+) experiencing poor (10 [12%]) and favorable (19 [12%]) outcomes. The mRS score at 90 days between patients with MRI-ICH (+) and MRI-ICH(-) was not significantly different (2 [1-4] vs. 2 [1-4], respectively). Higher age and lower ASPECTS were independent risk factors for poor outcomes, as shown by multivariate regression analysis. MRI-ICH(+) status was not associated with poor outcomes. CONCLUSIONS ICH detected by MRI alone did not influence clinical outcomes in patients with LVO treated with MT.

Predictive value of 8-year blood pressure measures in intracerebral hemorrhage risk over 5 years. Eur J Prev Cardiol 2024:zwae147. [PMID: 38629743 DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwae147] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2024] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 04/16/2024] [Indexed: 05/07/2024]
Abstract
AIMS The relationships between long-term blood pressure (BP) measures and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), as well as their predictive ability on ICH, were unclear. We aimed to investigate the independent associations of multiple BP measures with subsequent 5-year ICH risk, as well as the incremental value of these measures over a single-point BP measurement in ICH risk prediction. METHODS We included 12,398 participants from the China Kadoorie Biobank (CKB) who completed three surveys every four to five years. The following long-term BP measures were calculated: mean, minimum, maximum, standard deviation, coefficient of variation, average real variability, and cumulative BP exposure (cumBP). Cox proportional hazard models were used to examine the associations between these measures and ICH. The potential incremental value of these measures in ICH risk prediction was assessed using Harrell's C statistics, continuous net reclassification improvement (cNRI), and relative integrated discrimination improvement (rIDI). RESULTS The hazard ratios (95% confidence intervals) of incident ICH associated with per SD increase in cumSBP and cumDBP were 1.62 (1.25, 2.10) and 1.59 (1.23, 2.07), respectively. When cumBP was added to the conventional 5-year ICH risk prediction model, the C-statistic change was 0.009 (-0.001, 0.019), the cNRI was 0.267 (0.070, 0.464), and the rIDI was 18.2% (5.8%, 30.7%). Further subgroup analyses revealed a consistent increase in cNRI and rIDI in men, rural residents, and participants without diabetes. Other long-term BP measures showed no statistically significant associations with incident ICH and generally did not improve model performance. CONCLUSION The nearly 10-year cumBP was positively associated with an increased 5-year risk of ICH and could significantly improve risk reclassification for the ICH risk prediction model that included single-point BP measurement.

Abstract
Cardiac arrhythmias are one of the most common disorders with high morbidity and mortality. The effect of cardiac arrhythmias on the brain is very pronounced due to the high sensitivity of the brain to oxygen and blood supply. This mortality is preventable by early diagnosis and treatment which improves the patient's quality of life. Intervening at the right time, post arrhythmia is significant in preventing deaths and improving patient outcomes. Multiple pathophysiological mechanisms are studied for the brain-axis implications, that have the potential to be targeted by novel therapies. In this review, we describe the pathophysiological mechanisms and recent advances in detail to understand the functional aspects of the brain-heart axis and neurological implications post-stroke, caused by cardiac disorders. This paper aims to discuss the current literature on the neurological consequences of cardiac arrhythmias and delve into a deeper understanding of the brain-heart axis, imbalances, and decline, with the aim of summarizing everything and all about the neurological consequences of cardiac arrhythmias.

Potential effect of physical exercise on the downregulation of BDNF mRNA expression in rat hippocampus following intracerebral hemorrhage. Neurosci Lett 2024; 824:137670. [PMID: 38342427 DOI: 10.1016/j.neulet.2024.137670] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2023] [Revised: 01/24/2024] [Accepted: 02/05/2024] [Indexed: 02/13/2024]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Physical exercise is known to induce expression of the neuroprotective brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) in the hippocampus. This study examined the effects of physical exercise on hippocampal BDNF expression and the potential benefits for preventing remote secondary hippocampal damage and neurological impairment following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). MATERIALS AND METHODS Wistar rats were randomly assigned to sham-operated, ICH, and ICH followed by exercise (ICH/Ex) groups. The two ICH groups were injected with type IV collagenase into the left basal ganglia, while sham animals were injected with equal-volume saline. The ICH/Ex group rats ran on a treadmill at 11 m/min for 30 min/day from day 3 to 16 post-ICH. All animals were examined for neurological function on day 2 pretreatment and from day 3 to 15 posttreatment, for spontaneous motor activity in the open field on day 15, and for cognitive ability using the object location test on day 16. Animals were then euthanized and bilateral hippocampi collected for gene expression analyses. RESULTS Experimental ICH induced neurological deficits that were not reversed by exercise. In contrast, ICH did not alter spontaneous activity or object location ability. Expression of BDNF mRNA of the ICH group was significantly downregulated in the ipsilateral hippocampus compared to the SHAM group, but this downregulation was not shown in the ICH/Ex group. The ICH/Ex group showed the downregulation of caspase-3 mRNA expression in the contralateral hippocampus compared to the SHAM group, while neither ICH nor exercise influenced toll-like receptor 4 mRNA expression. CONCLUSIONS ICH induced the secondary BDNF downregulation in the hippocampus remote from the lesion, whereas physical exercise might partially mitigate the downregulation.

Abstract
MicroRNAs are short non-coding RNA molecules that function as critical regulators of various biological processes through negative regulation of gene expression post-transcriptionally. Recent studies have indicated that microRNAs are potential biomarkers for ischemic stroke. In this review, we first illustrate the pathogenesis of ischemic stroke and demonstrate the biogenesis and transportation of microRNAs from cells. We then discuss several promising microRNA biomarkers in ischemic stroke in a context-specific manner from three dimensions: biofluids selection for microRNA extraction (Where), the timing of sample collection after ischemic stroke onset (When), and the clinical application of the differential-expressed microRNAs during stroke pathophysiology (What). We show that microRNAs have the utilities in ischemic stroke diagnosis, risk stratification, subtype classification, prognosis prediction, and treatment response monitoring. However, there are also obstacles in microRNA biomarker research, and this review will discuss the possible ways to improve microRNA biomarkers. Overall, microRNAs have the potential to assist clinical treatment, and developing microRNA panels for clinical application is worthwhile.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mitophagy and ferroptosis occur in intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) but our understanding of mitophagy and ferroptosis-related genes remains incomplete. AIM This study aims to identify shared ICH genes for both processes. METHODS ICH differentially expressed mitophagy and ferroptosis-related genes (DEMFRGs) were sourced from the GEO database and literature. Enrichment analysis elucidated functions. Hub genes were selected via STRING, MCODE, and MCC algorithms in Cytoscape. miRNAs targeting hubs were predicted using miRWalk 3.0, forming a miRNA-hub gene network. Immune microenvironment variances were assessed with MCP and TIMER. Potential small molecules for ICH were forecasted via CMap database. RESULTS 64 DEMFRGs and ten hub genes potentially involved in various processes like ferroptosis, TNF signalling pathway, MAPK signalling pathway, and NF-kappa B signalling pathway were discovered. Several miRNAs were identified as shared targets of hub genes. The ICH group showed increased infiltration of monocytic lineage and myeloid dendritic cells compared to the Healthy group. Ten potential small molecule drugs (e.g. Zebularine, TWS-119, CG-930) were predicted via CMap. CONCLUSION Several shared genes between mitophagy and ferroptosis potentially drive ICH progression via TNF, MAPK, and NF-kappa B pathways. These results offer valuable insights for further exploring the connection between mitophagy, ferroptosis, and ICH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a stroke subtype characterized by high mortality and complex post-event complications. Research has extensively covered the acute phase of ICH; however, ICU readmission determinants remain less explored. Utilizing the MIMIC-III and MIMIC-IV databases, this investigation develops machine learning (ML) models to anticipate ICU readmissions in ICH patients. METHODS Retrospective data from 2242 ICH patients were evaluated using ICD-9 codes. Recursive feature elimination with cross-validation (RFECV) discerned significant predictors of ICU readmissions. Four ML models-AdaBoost, RandomForest, LightGBM, and XGBoost-underwent development and rigorous validation. SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) elucidated the effect of distinct features on model outcomes. RESULTS ICU readmission rates were 9.6% for MIMIC-III and 10.6% for MIMIC-IV. The LightGBM model, with an AUC of 0.736 (95% CI: 0.668-0.801), surpassed other models in validation datasets. SHAP analysis revealed hydrocephalus, sex, neutrophils, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), specific oxygen saturation (SpO2) levels, and creatinine as significant predictors of readmission. CONCLUSION The LightGBM model demonstrates considerable potential in predicting ICU readmissions for ICH patients, highlighting the importance of certain clinical predictors. This research contributes to optimizing patient care and ICU resource management. Further prospective studies are warranted to corroborate and enhance these predictive insights for clinical utilization.

Abstract
Background There are currently no uniform treatments for post-stroke comorbid cognitive impairment and depression (PSCCID). Objective To verify whether repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) can improve PSCCID symptoms and explore the underlying roles of resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rs-fMRI). Methods Thirty PSCCID patients were randomized in a 1 : 1 ratio to receive 4 weeks of rTMS (intervention group) or sham rTMS (control group) over the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC). rs-fMRI was acquired to analyze the functional plasticity of brain regions at baseline and immediately after the last intervention. Results Cognition, depression status, and neural electrophysiology were improved in both intervention and control groups after treatment (p = 0.015-0.042), and the intervention group had more significant improvement than the control group. Analysis of functional connectivities (FCs) within the default mood network (DMN) showed that the connection strength of the left temporal pole/left parahippocampal cortex and right lateral temporal cortex/right retrosplenial cortex in the intervention group were enhanced compared with its pre-intervention and that in the control group after treatment (p < 0.05), and the both FC values were positively correlated with MMSE scores (p < 0.001). The intervention group had stronger FCs within the DMN compared with the control group after treatment, and some of the enhanced FCs were correlated with the P300 latency and amplitude. Conclusions rTMS over the left DLPFC is an effective treatment for improving both cognitive impairment and depression among patients with PSCCID. The enhanced FCs within the DMN may serve as a compensatory functional recombination to promote clinical recovery.

Abstract
Objective Retinol-binding protein 4 (RBP4) promotes atherosclerotic progression and neuronal loss, whereas its association with cognitive impairment in stroke is unclear. Hence, this prospective study aimed to explore the association of serum RBP4 with the T helper (Th)17/regulatory T (Treg) cell ratio and its correlation with cognitive impairment in stroke patients. Methods Peripheral blood samples from 265 stroke patients and 50 healthy controls (HCs) were collected at enrollment for serum RBP4 (by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) and Th17 and Treg cells (by flow cytometry) determination. Additionally, stroke patients underwent routine follow-ups, and their Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) scores were assessed at baseline and in years 1, 2, and 3 after enrollment. Results Serum RBP4 was elevated in stroke patients compared to HCs (p < 0.001), with a good ability to differentiate stroke patients from HCs (area under the curve: 0.815). Serum RBP4 was positively associated with Th17 cells (p < 0.001) and the Th17/Treg cell ratio (p < 0.001) and negatively associated with Treg cells (p = 0.003) in stroke patients, whereas it was only positively associated with the Th17/Treg cell ratio (p = 0.027) but not with Th17 (p = 0.075) or Treg (p = 0.130) cells in HCs. Furthermore, increased serum RBP4 was associated with a lower MMSE score (p < 0.001) and a lower incidence of cognition impairment (p = 0.005) at enrollment in stroke patients, as were Th17 cells and the Th17/Treg cell ratio (all p < 0.050). The 1-, 2-, and 3-year MMSE scores in stroke patients were 25.9 ± 2.0, 25.3 ± 2.3, and 24.9 ± 2.3, respectively. More importantly, serum RBP4 was negatively correlated with 1-, 2-, and 3-year MMSE scores (all p < 0.001) and positively associated with 1-year (p = 0.013), 2-year (p = 0.007), and 3-year (p = 0.001) MMSE score declines in stroke patients. Conclusion Serum RBP4 is positively associated with a Th17/Treg cell imbalance and, more importantly, it is indicative of cognitive function decline within 3 years in stroke patients. Thus, early and timely interventions and physical rehabilitation are more necessary in stroke patients with high serum RBP4.

Abstract
Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is a special and easily misdiagnosed or undiagnosed subtype of stroke. To identify specific biomarkers with a high predictive ability for the diagnosis of acute CVT, we performed metabolomic analysis in plasma samples from acute CVT patients and healthy controls and confirmed the results in validation cohorts. In the discovery stage, there were 343 differential metabolites, and the caffeine metabolism pathway and the biosynthesis pathway for the branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) valine, leucine, and isoleucine were two significant pathways between the CVT and healthy cohorts. The area under the curve (AUC) for metabolites associated with valine, leucine, and isoleucine biosynthesis was 0.934. In the validation stage, the BCAA concentrations demonstrated an AUC of 0.935 to differentiate patients with acute CVT from the control cohort. In addition, BCAAs combined with D-dimer levels were used to establish a diagnostic model for CVT, and the AUC was 0.951, showing good diagnostic efficacy of separating CVT patients from the control cohort. BCAAs as plasma biomarkers deserve to be further studied and even developed in clinical CVT management.

Secular trends and features of thalamic hemorrhages compared with other hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhages: an 18-year single-center retrospective assessment. Front Neurol 2023; 14:1205091. [PMID: 37649871 PMCID: PMC10464616 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2023.1205091] [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: 04/13/2023] [Accepted: 07/28/2023] [Indexed: 09/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Trends regarding the locations of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhages are unclear. To clarify hypertensive hemorrhage trends, we investigated intracerebral hemorrhages (ICHs) over an 18-year period, focusing on thalamic hemorrhages compared with other sites of hemorrhages. Methods We reviewed the cases of patients hospitalized for hypertensive ICH in 2004-2021 at our hospital; 1,320 eligible patients were registered with a primary ICH/intraventricular hemorrhage. After exclusion criteria were applied, we retrospectively analyzed 1,026 hypertensive ICH cases. Results The proportions of thalamic and subcortical hemorrhages increased over the 18-year period, whereas putaminal hemorrhage decreased. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that for thalamic hemorrhage, ≥200 mmHg systolic blood pressure (p = 0.031), bleeding <15 mL (p = 0.001), and higher modified Rankin scale (mRS) score ≥ 4 at discharge (p = 0.006) were significant variables in the late period (2013-2021) versus the early period (2004-2012), whereas for putaminal hemorrhage, significant factors in the late period were triglyceride <150 mg/dL (p = 0.006) and mRS score ≥ 4 at discharge (p = 0.002). Among the features of the thalamic hemorrhages in the late period revealed by our group comparison with the putaminal and subcortical hemorrhages, the total and subcortical microbleeds were more notable in the thalamic hemorrhages than in the other two types of hemorrhage, whereas cerebellar microbleeds were more prominent when compared only with subcortical hemorrhages. Discussion Our findings revealed an increasing trend for thalamic hypertensive hemorrhage and a decreasing trend for putaminal hemorrhage. The thalamic hemorrhage increase was observed in both young and older patients, regardless of gender. The main features of thalamic hemorrhage in the late period versus the early period were decrease in larger hemorrhage (≥15 mL) and an increase in cases with higher systolic blood pressure (at least partially involved a small number of untreated hypertensive patients who developed major bleeding). The total and subcortical microbleeds were more notable in the thalamic hemorrhages of the late period than in the putaminal and subcortical hemorrhages. These results may contribute to a better understanding of the recent trends of hypertensive ICHs and may help guide their appropriate treatments for this condition.

Abstract
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is associated with deposition of amyloid proteins within the intracranial vessels. It is most frequently sporadic and risk increases with advancing age. Amyloid deposition is associated with increased risk of peripheral microhemorrhage, lobar hemorrhage, and/or repetitive subarachnoid hemorrhage. The presence of a peripherally located lobar hemorrhage on computed tomography in an elderly patient should raise concern for underlying CAA, as should multiple foci of peripheral susceptibility artifact or superficial siderosis on susceptibility-weighted imaging, the most sensitive modality for these findings. Newer PET radiotracers are also useful in detecting amyloid deposition.

Efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid in intracranial haemorrhage: A meta-analysis. PLoS One 2023; 18:e0282726. [PMID: 37000863 PMCID: PMC10065302 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0282726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/14/2022] [Accepted: 02/21/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Although some studies have shown that tranexamic acid is beneficial to patients with intracranial haemorrhage, the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid for intracranial haemorrhage remain controversial. METHOD The PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library databases were systematically searched. The review followed PRISMA guidelines. Data were analyzed using the random-effects model. RESULTS Twenty-five randomized controlled trials were included. Tranexamic acid significantly inhibited hematoma growth in intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and traumatic brain injury (TBI) patients. (ICH: mean difference -1.76, 95%CI -2.78 to -0.79, I2 = 0%, P < .001; TBI: MD -4.82, 95%CI -8.06 to -1.58, I2 = 0%, P = .004). For subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients, it significantly decreased the risk of hydrocephalus (OR 1.23, 95%CI 1.01 to 1.50, I2 = 0%, P = .04) and rebleeding (OR, 0.52, 95%CI 0.35 to 0.79, I2 = 56% P = .002). There was no significance in modified Rankin Scale, Glasgow Outcome Scale 3-5, mortality, deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or ischemic stroke/transient ischemic. CONCLUSION Tranexamic acid can significantly reduce the risk of intracranial haemorrhage growth in patients with ICH and TBI. Tranexamic acid can reduce the incidence of complications (hydrocephalus, rebleeding) in patients with SAH, which can indirectly improve the quality of life of patients with intracranial haemorrhage.
