Neurosurg Rev 2024; 47:305. [PMID: 38967704 PMCID: PMC11226492 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-024-02543-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/11/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/06/2024]
Abstract
The clinical management of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-associated vasospasm remains a challenge in neurosurgical practice, with its prevention and treatment having a major impact on neurological outcome. While considered a mainstay, nimodipine is burdened by some non-negligible limitations that make it still a suboptimal candidate of pharmacotherapy for SAH. This narrative review aims to provide an update on the pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, overall evidence, and strength of recommendation of nimodipine alternative drugs for aneurysmal SAH-associated vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia. A PRISMA literature search was performed in the PubMed/Medline, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, and PubChem databases using a combination of the MeSH terms "medical therapy," "management," "cerebral vasospasm," "subarachnoid hemorrhage," and "delayed cerebral ischemia." Collected articles were reviewed for typology and relevance prior to final inclusion. A total of 346 articles were initially collected. The identification, screening, eligibility, and inclusion process resulted in the selection of 59 studies. Nicardipine and cilostazol, which have longer half-lives than nimodipine, had robust evidence of efficacy and safety. Eicosapentaenoic acid, dapsone and clazosentan showed a good balance between effectiveness and favorable pharmacokinetics. Combinations between different drug classes have been studied to a very limited extent. Nicardipine, cilostazol, Rho-kinase inhibitors, and clazosentan proved their better pharmacokinetic profiles compared with nimodipine without prejudice with effective and safe neuroprotective role. However, the number of trials conducted is significantly lower than for nimodipine. Aneurysmal SAH-associated vasospasm remains an area of ongoing preclinical and clinical research where the search for new drugs or associations is critical.

Abstract
This study investigated the cytotoxic effects of oxidative stress (OS), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), ADAMTS (A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs), and neuropathology associated with coenurus cerebralis (Taenia multiceps). ADAMTS-13, HMGB1, glutathione reductase (GR), copper/zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD), and 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) expression levels were studied. The study found that ADAMTS-13 (P < 0.005), HMGB1 (P < 0.005), GR (P < 0.005), Cu/Zn SOD (P < 0.005), and 8-OHdG (P < 0.005) levels were significantly higher in T. multiceps (c. cerebralis)-infected animals compared to healthy control animals. This study's most important finding was that HMGB1 up-regulation in neurons, endothelial cells, and glial cells can directly cause brain parenchymal destruction and that HMGB1-mediated oxidative stress plays a crucial role in the neuropathogenesis of coenurosis. The results also showed that increased levels of ADAMTS-13 may play a pivotal role in regulating and protecting the blood-brain barrier integrity and neuroprotection. These findings also suggest that ADAMTS-13 and HMGB1 compete in the prevention or formation of microthrombi, which was regarded as a remarkable finding. ADAMTS-13 and HMGB1 are valuable biomarkers for disease risk assessment, estimating host neuropathy following T. multiceps (c. cerebralis) exposure, and providing a new therapeutic target. This is the first study to show that HMGB1 and ADAMTS-13 are expressed in reactive cells and are associated with neuroimmunopathology in coenurosis.

[PMID: 36712444 PMCID: PMC9874677 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2022.1096651] [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: 11/12/2022] [Accepted: 12/20/2022] [Indexed: 01/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Although endovascular treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms is well-established, some critical issues have not yet been clarified, such as the effects of timing on safety and effectiveness of the procedure. The aim of our study was to analyze the incidence of intra-procedural complications according to the timing of treatment, as they can affect morbidity and mortality. Materials and methods We retrospectively analyzed all patients who underwent endovascular treatment for ruptured intracranial aneurysms at three high flow center. For all patients, imaging and clinical data, aneurysm's type, mean dimension and different treatment techniques were analyzed. Intra-procedural complications were defined as thrombus formation at the aneurysm's neck, thromboembolic events, and rupture of the aneurysm. Patients were divided into three groups according to time between subarachnoid hemorrhage and treatment (<12 h hyper-early, 12-36 h early, and >36 h delayed). Results The final study population included 215 patients. In total, 84 patients (39%) underwent hyper-early, 104 (48%) early, and 27 (13%) delayed endovascular treatment. Overall, 69% of the patients were treated with simple coiling, 23% with balloon-assisted coiling, 1% with stent-assisted coiling, 3% with a flow-diverter stent, 3% with an intrasaccular flow disruptor device, and 0.5% with parent vessel occlusion. Delayed endovascular treatment was associated with an increased risk of total intra-procedural complications compared to both hyper-early (p = 0.009) and early (p = 0.004) treatments with a rate of complications of 56% (vs. 29% in hyper-early and 26% in early treated group-p = 0.011 and p = 0.008). The delayed treatment group showed a higher rate of thrombus formation and thromboembolic events. The increased risk of total intra-procedural complications in delayed treatment was confirmed, also considering only the patients treated with simple coiling and balloon-assisted coiling (p = 0.005 and p = 0.003, respectively, compared to hyper-early and early group) with a rate of complications of 62% (vs. 28% in hyper-early and 26% in early treatments-p = 0.007 and p = 0.003). Also in this subpopulation, delayed treated patients showed a higher incidence of thrombus formation and thromboembolic events. Conclusions Endovascular treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms more than 36 h after SAH seems to be associated with a higher risk of intra-procedural complications, especially thrombotic and thromboembolic events.

Abstract
Early brain injury (EBI) is considered an important cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). As a factor in EBI, microcirculatory dysfunction has become a focus of interest, but whether microcirculatory dysfunction is more important than angiographic vasospasm (aVS) remains unclear. Using data from 128 cases, we measured the time to peak (TTP) in several regions of interest on digital subtraction angiography. The intracerebral circulation time (iCCT) was obtained between the TTP in the ultra-early phase (the baseline iCCT) and in the subacute phase and/or at delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) onset (the follow-up iCCT). In addition, the difference in the iCCT was calculated by subtracting the baseline iCCT from the follow-up iCCT. Univariate analysis showed that DCI was significantly increased in those patients with a prolonged baseline iCCT, prolonged follow-up iCCT, increased differences in the iCCT, and with severe aVS. Poor outcome was significantly increased in patients with prolonged follow-up iCCT and increased differences in the iCCT. Multivariate analysis revealed that increased differences in the iCCT were a significant risk factor that increased DCI and poor outcome. The results suggest that the increasing microcirculatory dysfunction over time, not aVS, causes DCI and poor outcome after aneurysmal aSAH.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients develop delayed cerebral ischemia and delayed deficits (DCI) within 2 weeks of aneurysm rupture at a rate of approximately 30%. DCI is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality after SAH. The cause of DCI is multi-factorial with contributions from microthrombi, blood vessel constriction, inflammation, and cortical spreading depolarizations. Platelets play central roles in hemostasis, inflammation, and vascular function. Within this review, we examine the potential roles of platelets in microthrombi formation, large artery vasospasm, microvessel constriction, inflammation, and cortical spreading depolarization. Evidence from experimental and clinical studies is provided to support the role(s) of platelets in each pathophysiology which contributes to DCI. The review concludes with a suggestion for future therapeutic targets to prevent DCI after aSAH.

Abstract
Microthrombi formation in the brain following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been recognized and suspected to contribute to cerebral ischemia. A recent study found that ultra-early cerebral micro-thrombosis occured four hours after experimental SAH. The number of thrombotic microvessels correlated with brain-blood barrier disruption and neuronal injury. If acute cerebral micro-thrombi also occur in humans, is it time to develop a therapy with systemic thrombolysis for SAH patients?

Abstract
Since the arrival of the global COVID-19 pandemic scientists around the world have been working to understand the pathological mechanisms resulting from infection. There has gradually been an understanding that COVID-19 triggers a widespread endotheliopathy and that this can result in a widespread thrombosis and in particular a microthrombosis. The mechanisms involved in the microthrombosis are not confined to infection and there is evidence that patients with aneurysmal sub-arachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) also suffer from an endotheliopathy and microthrombosis. In this article we attempt to shed light on similarities in the underlying processes involved in both diseases and suggest potential treatment options.

Neuroprotective Strategies in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (aSAH). Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22115442.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remains a disease with high mortality and morbidity. Since treating vasospasm has not inevitably led to an improvement in outcome, the actual emphasis is on finding neuroprotective therapies in the early phase following aSAH to prevent secondary brain injury in the later phase of disease. Within the early phase, neuroinflammation, thromboinflammation, disturbances in brain metabolism and early neuroprotective therapies directed against delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) came into focus. Herein, the role of neuroinflammation, thromboinflammation and metabolism in aSAH is depicted. Potential neuroprotective strategies regarding neuroinflammation target microglia activation, metalloproteases, autophagy and the pathway via Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4), high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), NF-κB and finally the release of cytokines like TNFα or IL-1. Following the link to thromboinflammation, potential neuroprotective therapies try to target microthrombus formation, platelets and platelet receptors as well as clot clearance and immune cell infiltration. Potential neuroprotective strategies regarding metabolism try to re-balance the mismatch of energy need and supply following aSAH, for example, in restoring fuel to the TCA cycle or bypassing distinct energy pathways. Overall, this review addresses current neuroprotective strategies in aSAH, hopefully leading to future translational therapy options to prevent secondary brain injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The mechanisms of brain damage during ultra-early subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) have not been well studied. The current study examined the SAH-induced hyperacute brain damage at 4 hours using magnetic resonance imaging and brain histology in a mouse model. METHODS SAH was induced by endovascular perforation in adult mice. First, adult male wild-type mice underwent magnetic resonance imaging T2 and T2* 4 hours after an endovascular perforation or a sham operation and were euthanized to assess brain histology. Second, male and female adult lipocalin-2 knockout mice had SAH. All animals underwent magnetic resonance imaging at 4 hours, and the brains were harvested for brain histology. RESULTS T2* hypointensity vessels were observed in the brain 4 hours after SAH in male wild-type mice. The numbers of T2*-positive vessels were significantly higher in SAH brains than in sham-operated mice. Brain histology showed thrombosis and erythrocyte plugs in the T2*-positive cerebral vessels which may be venules. The number of T2*-positive vessels correlated with SAH grade and the presence of T2 lesions. Brain thrombosis was also accompanied by albumin leakage and neuronal injury. LCN2 deficient male mice had lower numbers of T2*-positive vessels after SAH compared with wild-type male mice. CONCLUSIONS SAH causes ultra-early brain vessel thrombosis that can be detected by T2* gradient-echo sequence at 4 hours after SAH. LCN2 deficiency decreased the number of T2*-positive vessels.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has been associated with numerous pathophysiological sequelae, including large artery vasospasm and microvascular thrombosis. The focus of this review is to provide an overview of experimental animal model studies and human autopsy studies that explore the temporal-spatial characterization and mechanism of microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis following SAH, as well as to critically assess experimental studies and clinical trials highlighting preventative therapeutic options against this highly morbid pathophysiological process. Upon review of the literature, we discovered that microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis occur after experimental SAH across multiple species and SAH induction techniques in a similar time frame to other components of DCI, occurring in the cerebral cortex and hippocampus across both hemispheres. We discuss the relationship of these findings to human autopsy studies. In the final section of this review, we highlight the important therapeutic options for targeting microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis, and emphasize why therapeutic targeting of this neurovascular pathology may improve patient care. We encourage ongoing research into the pathophysiology of SAH and DCI, especially in regard to microvascular platelet aggregation and thrombosis and the translation to randomized clinical trials.

Abstract
We investigated the expression of A disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin type I repeats-13 (ADAMTS-13) in the central nervous system (CNS), because it is related to blood-brain barrier (BBB) permeability. We also investigated 8-OHdG, caspase-3 and neuronal nitric oxide synthase (nNOS) expression for the cytotoxic effects of oxidative stress (OS) and nNOS, and their relation to apoptosis. We also investigated the neuroimmunopathology caused by L. monocytogenes. Brain tissues were obtained from 10 lambs and 10 kids with listeric meningoencephalitis, and healthy brain tissue from six lambs and six kids. Serial sections of brain were stained by hematoxylin and eosin (H & E), and using immunohistochemistry (IHC) for L. monocytogenes antigen, ADAMTS-13, 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), nNOS and caspase-3. We found that ADAMTS-13, 8-OHdG, nNOS and caspase-3 expression in the brain was increased in L. Monocytogenes infected animals compared to uninfected controls. Intense staining for 8-OHdG was observed only in neurons and glia that were exposed to OS. ADAMTS-13 was increased significantly, which may play a role in regulating and protecting BBB integrity and cells of the CNS in cases of listeric encephalitis. Increased expression of ADAMTS-13 may be critical for supporting the survival of neurons and glia. We found that L. monocytogenes-related increases in OS and nNOS, and that the associated apoptosis, may participate in neurodegeneration and neuropathology in listeric encephalitis.

BACKGROUND Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is among the most dreaded complications following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Despite advances in neurocritical care, DCI remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality, prolonged intensive care unit and hospital stay, and high healthcare costs. Large artery vasospasm has classically been thought to lead to DCI. However, recent failure of clinical trials targeting vasospasm to improve outcomes has underscored the disconnect between large artery vasospasm and DCI. Therefore, interest has shifted onto other potential mechanisms such as microvascular dysfunction and spreading depolarizations. Animal models can be instrumental in dissecting pathophysiology, but clinical relevance can be difficult to establish. METHODS Here, we performed a systematic review of the literature on animal models of SAH, focusing specifically on DCI and neurological deficits. RESULTS We find that dog, rabbit and rodent models do not consistently lead to DCI, although some degree of delayed vascular dysfunction is common. Primate models reliably recapitulate delayed neurological deficits and ischemic brain injury; however, ethical issues and cost limit their translational utility. CONCLUSIONS To facilitate translation, clinically relevant animal models that reproduce the pathophysiology and cardinal features of DCI after SAH are urgently needed.

Abstract
von Willebrand factor (VWF) and platelets are key mediators of normal hemostasis. At sites of vascular injury, VWF recruits platelets via binding to the platelet receptor glycoprotein Ibα (GPIbα). Over the past decades, it has become clear that many hemostatic factors, including VWF and platelets, are also involved in inflammatory processes, forming intriguing links between hemostasis, thrombosis, and inflammation. The so-called “thrombo-inflammatory” nature of the VWF-platelet axis becomes increasingly recognized in different cardiovascular pathologies, making it a potential therapeutic target to interfere with both thrombosis and inflammation. In this review, we discuss the current evidence for the thrombo-inflammatory activity of VWF with a focus on the VWF-GPIbα axis and discuss its implications in the setting of ischemic stroke.

Abstract
Essentials von Willebrand Factor (VWF) and ADAMTS13 may affect early injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Early brain injury was assessed in VWF-/- , ADAMTS13-/- and recombinant (r) ADAMTS13 treated mice. VWF-/- and rADAMTS13 treated mice had less brain injury than ADAMTS13-/- and wild-type mice. Early administration of rADAMTS13 may improve outcome after SAH by reducing early brain injury. SUMMARY Background Early brain injury is an important determinant of poor functional outcome and case fatality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and is associated with early platelet aggregation. No treatment exists for early brain injury after SAH. We investigated whether von Willebrand factor (VWF) is involved in the pathogenesis of early brain injury, and whether ultra-early treatment with recombinant ADAMTS-13 (rADAMTS-13) reduces early brain injury after experimental SAH. Methods Experimental SAH in mice was induced by prechiasmatic injection of non-anticoagulated blood from a littermate. The following experimental SAH groups were investigated: C57BL/6J control (n = 21), VWF-/- (n = 25), ADAMTS-13-/- (n = 23), and C57BL/6J treated with rADAMTS-13 (n = 26). Mice were killed at 2 h after SAH. Primary outcome measures were microglial activation (IBA-1 surface area) and neuronal injury (number of cleaved caspase-3-positive neurons). Results As compared with controls, microglial activation was decreased in VWF-/- mice (mean difference of - 20.0%, 95% confidence interval [CI] - 4.0% to - 38.6%), increased in ADAMTS-13-/- mice (mean difference of + 34.0%, 95% CI 16.2-51.7%), and decreased in rADAMTS-13-treated mice (mean difference of - 22.1%, 95% CI - 3.4% to - 39.1%). As compared with controls (185 neurons, interquartile range [IQR] 133-353), neuronal injury in the cerebral cortex was decreased in VWF-/- mice (63 neurons, IQR 25-78), not changed in ADAMTS-13-/- mice (53 neurons, IQR 26-221), and reduced in rADAMTS-13-treated mice (45 neurons, IQR 9-115). Conclusions Our findings suggest that VWF is involved in the pathogenesis of early brain injury, and support the further study of rADAMTS-13 as a treatment option for early brain injury after SAH.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is common after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and represents a significant cause of poor functional outcome. DCI was mainly thought to be caused by cerebral vasospasm; however, recent clinical trials have been unable to confirm this hypothesis. Studies in humans and animal models have since supported the notion of a multifactorial pathophysiology of DCI. This review summarizes some of the main mechanisms under investigation including cerebral vascular dysregulation, microthrombosis, cortical spreading depolarizations, and neuroinflammation. RECENT FINDINGS Recent guidelines have differentiated between DCI and angiographic vasospasm and have highlighted roles of the microvasculature, coagulation and fibrinolytic systems, cortical spreading depressions, and the contribution of the immune system to DCI. Many therapeutic interventions are underway in both preclinical and clinical studies to target these novel mechanisms as well as studies connecting these mechanisms to one another. Clinical trials to date have been largely unsuccessful at preventing or treating DCI after SAH. The only successful pharmacologic intervention is the calcium channel antagonist, nimodipine. Recent studies have provided evidence that cerebral vasospasm is not the sole contributor to DCI and that additional mechanisms may play equal if not more important roles.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating disease with high mortality and morbidity. Long-term cognitive and sensorimotor deficits are serious complications following SAH but still not well explained and described in mouse preclinical models. The aim of our study is to characterize a well-mastered SAH murine model and to establish developing pathological mechanisms leading to cognitive and motor deficits, allowing identification of specific targets involved in these long-term troubles. We hereby demonstrate that the double blood injection model of SAH induced long-lasting large cerebral artery vasospasm (CVS), microthrombosis formation and cerebral brain damage including defect in potential paravascular diffusion. These neurobiological alterations appear to be associated with sensorimotor and cognitive dysfunctions mainly detected 10 days after the bleeding episode. In conclusion, this characterized model of SAH in mice, stressing prolonged neurobiological pathological mechanisms and associated sensitivomotor deficits, will constitute a validated preclinical model to better decipher the link between CVS, long-term cerebral apoptosis and cognitive disorders occurring during SAH and to allow investigating novel therapeutic approaches in transgenic mice.

Abstract
Increased von Willebrand factor (VWF) and reduced ADAMTS13 activity are associated with arterial thrombosis. This may also be the culprit mechanism implicated in delayed cerebral ischaemia after aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). It was our objective to determine plasma VWF and ADAMTS13 in patients with SAH and healthy subjects; and to explore the levels of those markers and outcome after SAH. Forty consecutive patients were enrolled between September 2007 and April 2014 in a pilot study. Plasma samples were collected from SAH patients on post-bleed day (PBD) 0, 1, 3, 5, 7 and 10 and healthy controls. VWF antigen (VWFAg) and VWF activity (VWFAc) were determined by enzyme-linked immunoassay and collagen binding assay, respectively. ADAMTS13 activity was determined by the cleavage of a fluorescent substrate. Univariate descriptive statistics and cluster analyses were performed based on outcomes in the group with SAH only. Mean age of SAH patients was 52.4 years (26-84 years) and 30 (75 %) were women. 12/40 (30 %) had a high Hunt and Hess grade (IV-V) and 25 (62.5 %) were treated with coil embolisation. Plasma VWFAg and VWFAc were significantly higher in SAH patients than those in healthy subjects on each PBD (p<0.0001). Concurrently, plasma ADAMTS13 activity in SAH patients was significantly lower than that in healthy subjects (p<0.0001). Among those with SAH, cluster analysis demonstrated that patients with higher VWFAg and VWFAc and/or lower ADAMTS13 activity might be at risk of increased mortality. In conclusion, the relative deficiency of plasma ADAMTS13 activity in SAH patients may associate with worse outcome.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Known risk factors for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) include age, hypertension, smoking, alcohol intake, and anticoagulant use. Some previous reports have indicated that hemostatic factors measured many years before the onset of ICH might predict the later occurrence of ICH. The objective of this analysis was to test whether selected hemostatic factors measured years before the onset of ICH could identify patients at higher risk for future ICH. METHODS We performed a nested case-control study within the Women's Health Initiative (WHI) cohort. Postmenopausal women aged 50-79 years (mean 68) at baseline (1993-1998) were enrolled at 40 Clinical Centers in the United States and followed for adjudicated ICH for a mean of 11.4 years. ICH cases (N = 75) and controls (N = 75) were matched on age, ethnicity, blood pressure, anticoagulant use, and treated hypertension. Stored blood samples from the baseline WHI examination were tested for von Willebrand factor (vWF), a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease domain with thrombospondin type-1 motif, number 13 (ADAMTS13), tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA), and urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA). Platelet count, white blood cell count, and hemoglobin concentration were also measured. RESULTS Mean baseline levels of vWF (1.03 and .95 U/mL), ADAMTS13 (1.0 and 1.1 µg/mL), vWF : ADAMTS13 ratio (.99 and .92), t-PA (14.75 and 14.80 IU/mL), and u-PA (.09 and .10 IU/mL) were not significantly different by case-control status. Significant differences were also not identified for platelet count, hemoglobin, white blood count, or reported alcohol use. CONCLUSION None of the 4 baseline hemostatic factors nor the platelet count was predictive of future ICH risk in this long-term study of older postmenopausal women.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) has been associated with microthrombosis, which can result from activated hemostasis, inhibited fibrinolysis, or both. We systematically searched the PUBMED and EMBASE databases to identify hemostatic or fibrinolytic parameters that can be used for the prediction or diagnosis of DCI, or that inform on the pathogenesis of DCI and may serve as treatment targets. We included 24 studies that fulfilled predefined criteria and described 39 biomarkers. Only one study fulfilled predefined criteria for high quality. Since no parameter on admission was associated with DCI and in none of the included studies blood was drawn at the time of clinical deterioration, none of the studied parameters can presently be used for the prediction or diagnosis of DCI. Regarding the pathogenesis of DCI, it was shown that compared with patients without DCI those with DCI had higher levels of von Willebrand factor and platelet activating factor in plasma 5 to 9 days after aSAH, membrane tissue factor in cerebrospinal fluid 5 to 9 days after aSAH, and D-dimer in plasma 11 to 14 days after aSAH. Confirmation in high-quality studies is needed to investigate whether these parameters can serve as targets for new intervention studies.

Abstract
Thrombotic microangiopathies (TMA) are disorders defined by the presence of a microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (with the characteristic hallmark of schistocytes in the peripheral blood smear), thrombocytopenia and organ malfunction of variable intensity. Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura and hemolytic uremic syndrome are the most important forms of TMA and, without the adequate treatment, they are associated with high morbimortality. In recent years, significant advances in the knowledge of the pathophysiology of TMA have occurred. Those advances have allowed us to move from a syndromic diagnosis with a similar treatment to all entities to the search of etiologic diagnosis which would lead to a specific treatment, finally leading to a better outcome of the patient. This document pretends to summarize the current status of knowledge of the pathophysiology of TMA and the therapeutic options available, and to offer a diagnostic and therapeutic practical tool to the professionals caring for the patients.
