Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a neurological condition with high mortality and poor prognosis, and there are currently no effective therapeutic drugs available. Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (PARP-1) dependent cell death pathway-parthanatos is closely associated with stroke. We investigated improvements in neurological function, oxidative stress, blood-brain barrier and parthanatos-related protein expression in rats with SAH after intraperitoneal administration of PARP-1 inhibitor (AG14361). Our study found that the expression of parthanatos-related proteins was significantly increased after SAH. Immunofluorescence staining showed increased expression of apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF) in the nucleus after SAH. Administration of PARP-1 inhibitor significantly reduced malondialdehyde (MDA) level and the expression of parthanatos-related proteins. Immunofluorescence staining showed that PARP-1 inhibitor reduced the expression of 8-hydroxy-2' -deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) and thus reduced oxidative stress. Moreover, PARP-1 inhibitor could inhibit inflammation-associated proteins level and neuronal apoptosis, protect the blood-brain barrier and significantly improve neurological function after SAH. These results suggest that PARP-1 inhibitor can significantly improve SAH, and the underlying mechanism may be through inhibiting parthanatos pathway.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are main forms of hemorrhagic stroke. Data regarding cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) burden and incidental small lesions on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) following aSAH are sparse. PATIENTS AND METHODS We retrospectively analyzed a prospective cohort of aSAH and ICH patients with brain MRI within 30 days after onset from March 2015 to January 2023. White matter hyperintensity (WMH), lacune, perivascular space, cerebral microbleed (CMB), total SVD score, and incidental DWI lesions were assessed and compared between aSAH and ICH. Clinical and radiological characteristics associated with small DWI lesions in aSAH were investigated. RESULTS We included 180 patients with aSAH (median age [IQR] 53 [47-61] years) and 299 with ICH (63 [53-73] years). DWI lesions were more common in aSAH than ICH (47.8% vs 14.4%, p < 0.001). Higher total SVD score was associated with ICH versus aSAH irrespective of hematoma location, whereas DWI lesions and strictly lobar CMBs were correlated with aSAH. Multivariable analysis showed that shorter time from onset to MRI, anterior circulation aneurysm rupture, CMB ⩾ 5, and total SVD score were associated with DWI lesions in aSAH. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION Incidental DWI lesions and strictly lobar CMBs were more frequent in aSAH versus ICH whereas ICH had higher SVD burden. Incidental DWI lesions in aSAH were associated with multiple clinical and imaging factors. Longitudinal studies to investigate the dynamic change and prognostic value of the covert hemorrhagic and ischemic lesions in aSAH seem justified.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), known as non-traumatic cerebrovascular rupture and hemorrhage, often occurs in the deep basal brain segment. It is known for its high morbidity and mortality rates. Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a clinical syndrome caused by the rupture of blood vessels at the base or surface of the brain that allows blood to flow directly into the subarachnoid space. It progresses quickly and typically manifests at younger ages compared with ICH. ICH and SAH are both devastating events in the category of hemorrhagic strokes and are attracting increasing attention from researchers. Flavonoids, being important natural molecules, have remarkable anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. Flavonoids have extensive biological activities in inflammation and oxidative stress (OS), and have protective effects in vascular function associated with cerebrovascular diseases. They have an impact on the onset of ICH and SAH by targeting various pathways, including the suppression of inflammation and OS. Recently, the role of flavonoid compounds in ICH and SAH has also received increasing interest. Thus, to serve as a resource for the prevention and treatment of ICH and SAH, the present review provided an overview of the research on flavonoid compounds in the prevention of brain damage after these two conditions have occurred.

BCAT1 alleviates early brain injury by inhibiting ferroptosis through PI3K/AKT/mTOR/GPX4 pathway after subarachnoid hemorrhage. Free Radic Biol Med 2024; 222:173-186.

Abstract
Regulation of the redox system by branched-chain amino acid transferase 1 (BCAT1) is of great significance in the occurrence and development of diseases, but the relationship between BCAT1 and subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is still unknown. Ferroptosis, featured by iron-dependent lipid peroxidation accompanied by the depletion of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4), has been implicated in the pathological process of early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage. This study established SAH model by endovascular perforation and adding oxyhemoglobin (Hb) to HT22 cells and delved into the mechanism of BCAT1 in SAH-induced ferroptotic neuronal cell death. It was found that SAH-induced neuronal ferroptosis could be inhibited by BCAT1 overexpression (OE) in rats and HT22 cells, and BCAT1 OE alleviated neurological deficits and cognitive dysfunction in rats after SAH. In addition, the effect of BCAT1 could be reversed by the Ly294002, a specific inhibitor of the PI3K pathway. In summary, our present study indicated that BCAT1 OE alleviated early brain injury EBI after SAH by inhibiting neuron ferroptosis via activation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and the elevation of GPX4. These results suggested that BCAT1 was a promising therapeutic target for subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Neurochem Res 2024; 49:2556-2572. [PMID: 38888828 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-024-04193-x] [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: 03/15/2024] [Revised: 05/23/2024] [Accepted: 06/06/2024] [Indexed: 06/20/2024]
Abstract
A subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is life-threatening bleeding into the subarachnoid space that causes brain damage. Growing evidence has suggested that melatonin provides neuroprotection following SAH. Exploring the mechanisms underlying melatonin-mediated neuroprotection contributes to its clinical application in SAH. The plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were collected from SAH patients, and SAH mice were established via pre-chiasmatic injection. Circodz3 expression, levels of IL-1β and TNF-α, brain water content, neurological and beam-waling scores were determined. Ferroptosis was evaluated by analyzing levels of iron, lipid ROS, MDA, and GSH. The colocalization of circodz3 and Iba-1 was analyzed by immunofluorescence staining. Interaction of circodz3 and HuR was determined with RNA pull-down and RNA immunoprecipitation assays. Herein, we found that circodz3 was highly abundant in SAH patients and mice. Colocalization of circodz3 and Iba-1 in the left hemisphere of SAH mice suggested the implication of circodz3 in regulating microglia activation following SAH. Melatonin alleviated brain edema, neurological impairment, and microglia activation and inhibited circodz3 expression in SAH mice. Moreover, melatonin inhibited M1 polarization, oxidative stress and ferroptosis and restrained circodz3 expression in primary microglia following SAH. These effects were abrogated by circodz3 overexpression. Circodz3 knockdown inhibited ferroptosis and M1 polarization of BV2 microglia after SAH. Circodz3 interacted with HuR to facilitate β-Trcp1-mediated ubiquitination and degradation, thus restraining the expression of SLC7A11 and GPX4. Collectively, melatonin exerted neuroprotection following SAH via inhibiting ferroptosis and M1 polarization through the circodz3/HuR axis. Our study suggests potential application of melatonin in the treatment of SAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aims to investigate the efficacy and safety of glibenclamide treatment in patients with acute aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). METHODS The randomized controlled trial was conducted from October 2021 to May 2023 at two university-affiliated hospitals in Beijing, China. The study included patients with aSAH within 48 h of onset, of whom were divided into the intervention group and the control group according to the random number table method. Patients in the intervention group received glibenclamide tablet 3.75 mg/day for 7 days. The primary end points were the levels of serum neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and soluble protein 100B (S100B) between the two groups. Secondary end points included evaluating changes in the midline shift and the gray matter-white matter ratio, as well as assessing the modified Rankin Scale scores during follow-up. The trial was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (identifier NCT05137678). RESULTS A total of 111 study participants completed the study. The median age was 55 years, and 52% were women. The mean admission Glasgow Coma Scale was 10, and 58% of the Hunt-Hess grades were no less than grade III. The baseline characteristics of the two groups were similar. On days 3 and 7, there were no statistically significant differences observed in serum NSE and S100B levels between the two groups (P > 0.05). The computer tomography (CT) values of gray matter and white matter in the basal ganglia were low on admission, indicating early brain edema. However, there were no significant differences found in midline shift and gray matter-white matter ratio (P > 0.05) between the two groups. More than half of the patients had a beneficial outcome (modified Rankin Scale scores 0-2), and there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups. The incidence of hypoglycemia in the two groups were 4% and 9%, respectively (P = 0.439). CONCLUSIONS Treating patients with early aSAH with oral glibenclamide did not decrease levels of serum NSE and S100B and did not improve the poor 90-day neurological outcome. In the intervention group, there was a visible decreasing trend in cases of delayed cerebral ischemia, but no statistically significant difference was observed. The incidence of hypoglycemia did not differ significantly between the two groups.

Abstract
Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the second most common subtype of stroke, characterized by high mortality and a poor prognosis. Despite various treatment methods, there has been limited improvement in the prognosis of ICH over the past decades. Therefore, it is imperative to identify a feasible treatment strategy for ICH. Mitochondria are organelles present in most eukaryotic cells and serve as the primary sites for aerobic respiration and energy production. Under unfavorable cellular conditions, mitochondria can induce changes in permeability through the opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP), ultimately leading to mitochondrial dysfunction and contributing to various diseases. Recent studies have demonstrated that mPTP plays a role in the pathological processes associated with several neurodegenerative diseases including Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease, ischemic stroke and ischemia-reperfusion injury, among others. However, there is limited research on mPTP involvement specifically in ICH. Therefore, this study comprehensively examines the pathological processes associated with mPTP in terms of oxidative stress, apoptosis, necrosis, autophagy, ferroptosis, and other related mechanisms to elucidate the potential mechanism underlying mPTP involvement in ICH. This research aims to provide novel insights for the treatment of secondary injury after ICH.

Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to investigate early effects of exogenously administered adropin (AD) on neurological function, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) expression, nitrite/nitrate levels, oxidative stress, and apoptosis in subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). METHODS Following intracerebroventricular AD administration (10 µg/5 µl at a rate of 1 µl/min) SAH model was carried out in Sprague-Dawley rats by injection of autologous blood into the prechiasmatic cistern. The effects of AD were assessed 24 h following SAH. The modified Garcia score was employed to evaluate functional insufficiencies. Adropin and caspase-3 proteins were measured by ELISA, while nitrite/nitrate levels, total antioxidant capacity (TAC) and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) were assayed by standard kits. eNOS expression and apoptotic neurons were detected by immunohistochemical analysis. RESULTS The SAH group performed notably lower on the modified Garcia score compared to sham and SAH + AD groups. Adropin administration increased brain eNOS expression, nitrite/nitrate and AD levels compared to SHAM and SAH groups. SAH produced enhanced ROS/RNS generation and reduced antioxidant capacity in the brain. Adropin boosted brain TAC and diminished ROS/RNS production in SAH rats and no considerable change amongst SHAM and SAH + AD groups were detected. Apoptotic cells were notably increased in intensity and number after SAH and were reduced by AD administration. CONCLUSIONS Adropin increases eNOS expression and reduces neurobehavioral deficits, oxidative stress, and apoptotic cell death in SAH model. Presented results indicate that AD provides protection in early brain injury associated with SAH.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating acute cerebrovascular event with high mortality and permanent disability rates. Higher galectin-3 levels on days 1-3 have been shown to predict the development of delayed cerebral infarction or adverse outcomes after SAH. Recent single-cell analysis of microglial transcriptomic diversity in SAH revealed that galectin could influence the development and course of neuroinflammation after SAH. METHODS This study aimed to investigate the role and mechanism of galectin-3 in SAH and to determine whether galectin-3 inhibition prevents early brain injury by reducing microglia polarization using a mouse model of SAH and oxyhemoglobin-treated activation of mouse BV2 cells in vitro. RESULTS We found that the expression of galectin-3 began to increase 12 h after SAH and continued to increase up to 72 h. Importantly, TD139-inhibited galectin-3 expression reduced the release of inflammatory factors in microglial cells. In the experimental SAH model, TD139 treatment alleviated neuroinflammatory damage after SAH and improved defects in neurological functions. Furthermore, we demonstrated that galectin-3 inhibition affected the activation and M1 polarization of microglial cells after SAH. TD139 treatment inhibited the expression of TLR4, p-NF-κB p65, and NF-κB p65 in microglia activated by oxyhemoglobin as well as eliminated the increased expression and phosphorylation of JAK2 and STAT3. CONCLUSION These findings suggest that regulating microglia polarization by galectin-3 after SAH to improve neuroinflammation may be a potential therapeutic target.

The Difference in Serum Metabolomic Profiles between the Good and Poor Outcome Groups at 3 Months in the Early and Late Phases of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:6597. [PMID: 38928303 PMCID: PMC11203497 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25126597] [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: 05/19/2024] [Revised: 06/11/2024] [Accepted: 06/13/2024] [Indexed: 06/28/2024] Open
Abstract
We aimed to investigate the characteristics of serum metabolomics in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients (aSAH) with different 3-month outcomes (good = modified Rankin score: 0-3 vs. poor = mRS 4-6). We collected serum samples from 46 aSAH patients at 24 (D1) and 168 (D7) hours after injury for analysis by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Ninety-six different metabolites were identified. Groups were compared using multivariate (orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis), univariate, and receiving operator characteristic (ROC) methods. We observed a marked decrease in serum homocysteine levels at the late phase (D7) compared to the early phase (D1). At both D1 and D7, mannose and sorbose levels were notably higher, alongside elevated levels of kynurenine (D1) and increased 2-hydroxybutyrate, methyl-galactoside, creatine, xanthosine, p-hydroxyphenylacetate, N-acetylalanine, and N-acetylmethionine (all D7) in the poor outcome group. Conversely, levels of guanidinoacetate (D7) and several amino acids (both D1 and D7) were significantly lower in patients with poor outcomes. Our results indicate significant changes in energy metabolism, shifting towards ketosis and alternative energy sources, both in the early and late phases, even with adequate enteral nutrition, particularly in patients with poor outcomes. The early activation of the kynurenine pathway may also play a role in this process.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Spontaneous subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) carries high morbidity and mortality rates, and the emergent management of this disease can make a large impact on patient outcome. The purpose of this article is to provide a pragmatic overview of the emergent management of SAH. LATEST DEVELOPMENTS Recent trials have influenced practice around the use of antifibrinolytics, the timing of aneurysm securement, the recognition of cerebral edema and focus on avoiding a lower limit of perfusion, and the detection and prevention of delayed cerebral ischemia. Much of the acute management of SAH can be protocolized, as demonstrated by two updated guidelines published by the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association and the Neurocritical Care Society in 2023. However, the gaps in evidence lead to clinical equipoise in some aspects of critical care management. ESSENTIAL POINTS In acute management, there is an urgency to differentiate the etiology of SAH and take key emergent actions including blood pressure management and coagulopathy reversal. The critical care management of SAH is similar to that of other acute brain injuries, with the addition of detecting and treating delayed cerebral ischemia. Strategies for the detection and treatment of delayed cerebral ischemia are limited by disordered consciousness and may be augmented by monitoring and imaging technology.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage is a devastating sequela of aneurysm rupture. Because it disproportionately affects younger patients, the population impact of hemorrhagic stroke from subarachnoid hemorrhage is substantial. Secondary brain injury is a significant contributor to morbidity after subarachnoid hemorrhage. Initial hemorrhage causes intracranial pressure elevations, disrupted cerebral perfusion pressure, global ischemia, and systemic dysfunction. These initial events are followed by two characterized timespans of secondary brain injury: the early brain injury period and the delayed cerebral ischemia period. The identification of varying microglial phenotypes across phases of secondary brain injury paired with the functions of microglia during each phase provides a basis for microglia serving a critical role in both promoting and attenuating subarachnoid hemorrhage-induced morbidity. The duality of microglial effects on outcomes following SAH is highlighted by the pleiotropic features of these cells. Here, we provide an overview of the key role of microglia in subarachnoid hemorrhage-induced secondary brain injury as both cytotoxic and restorative effectors. We first describe the ontogeny of microglial populations that respond to subarachnoid hemorrhage. We then correlate the phenotypic development of secondary brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage to microglial functions, synthesizing experimental data in this area.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The poor prognosis in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is often attributed to neuronal apoptosis. Recent evidence suggests that Laminin subunit gamma 1 (LAMC1) is essential for cell survival and proliferation. However, the effects of LAMC1 on early brain injury after SAH and the underlying mechanisms are unknown. The current study aimed to reveal the anti-neuronal apoptotic effect and the potential mechanism of LAMC1 in the rat and in the in vitro SAH models. METHODS The SAH model of Sprague-Dawley rats was established by endovascular perforation. Recombinant LAMC1 (rLAMC1) was administered intranasally 30 min after modeling. LAMC1 small interfering RNA (LAMC1 siRNA), focal adhesion kinase (FAK)-specific inhibitor Y15 and PI3K-specific inhibitor LY294002 were administered before SAH modeling to explore the neuroprotection mechanism of rLAMC1. HT22 cells were cultured and stimulated by oxyhemoglobin to establish an in vitro model of SAH. Subsequently, SAH grades, neurobehavioral tests, brain water content, blood-brain barrier permeability, western blotting, immunofluorescence, TUNEL, and Fluoro-Jade C staining were performed. RESULTS The expression of endogenous LAMC1 was markedly decreased after SAH, both in vitro and in vivo. rLAMC1 significantly reduced the brain water content and blood-brain barrier permeability, improved short- and long-term neurobehavior, and decreased neuronal apoptosis. Furthermore, rLAMC1 treatment significantly increased the expression of p-FAK, p-PI3K, p-AKT, Bcl-XL, and Bcl-2 and decreased the expression of Bax and cleaved caspase -3. Conversely, knockdown of endogenous LAMC1 aggravated the neurological impairment, suppressed the expression of Bcl-XL and Bcl-2, and upregulated the expression of Bax and cleaved caspase-3. Additionally, the administration of Y15 and LY294002 abolished the protective roles of rLAMC1. In vitro, rLAMC1 significantly reduced neuronal apoptosis, and the protective effects were also abolished by Y15 and LY294002. CONCLUSION Exogenous LAMC1 treatment improved neurological deficits after SAH in rats, and attenuated neuronal apoptosis in both in vitro and in vivo SAH models, at least partially through the FAK/PI3K/AKT pathway.

Abstract
PURPOSE Progressive cerebral edema with refractory intracranial hypertension (ICP) requiring decompressive hemicraniectomy (DHC) is a severe manifestation of early brain injury (EBI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). The purpose of the study was to investigate whether a more pronounced cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) drainage has an influence on cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) and the extent of EBI after aSAH. METHODS Patients with aSAH and indication for ICP-monitoring admitted to our center between 2012 and 2020 were retrospectively included. EBI was categorized based on intracranial blood burden, persistent loss of consciousness, and SEBES (Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Early Brain Edema Score) score on the third day after ictus. The draining CSF and vital signs such as ICP and CPP were documented daily. RESULTS 90 out of 324 eligible aSAH patients (28%) were included. The mean age was 54.2 ± 11.9 years. DHC was performed in 24% (22/90) of patients. Mean CSF drainage within 72 h after ictus was 168.5 ± 78.5 ml. A higher CSF drainage within 72 h after ictus correlated with a less severe EBI and a less frequent need for DHC (r=-0.33, p = 0.001) and with a higher mean CPP on day 3 after ictus (r = 0.2351, p = 0.02). CONCLUSION A more pronounced CSF drainage in the first 3 days of aSAH was associated with higher CPP and a less severe course of EBI and required less frequently a DHC. These results support the hypothesis that an early and pronounced CSF drainage may facilitate blood clearance and positively influence the course of EBI.

Abstract
Absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2) is implicated in neuroinflammation. Here, we explored the prognostic significance of serum AIM2 in human aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). We conducted a consecutive enrollment of 127 patients, 56 of whom agreed with blood-drawings not only at admission but also at days 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days after aSAH. Serum AIM2 levels of patients and 56 healthy controls were measured. Disease severity was assessed using the modified Fisher scale (mFisher) and World Federation of Neurological Surgeons Scale (WFNS). Neurological outcome at poststroke 90 days was evaluated via the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were sequentially done to ascertain relationship between serum AIM2 levels, severity, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and 90-day poor prognosis (mRS scores of 3-6). Patients, in comparison to controls, had a significant elevation of serum AIM2 levels at admission and at days 1, 2, 3, 5, 7 and 10 days after aSAH, with the highest levels at days 1, 2, 3 and 5. AIM2 levels were independently correlated with WFNS scores and mFisher scores. Significantly higher serum AIM2 levels were detected in patients with a poor prognosis than in those with a good prognosis, as well as in patients with DCI than in those without DCI. Moreover, serum AIM2 levels independently predicted a poor prognosis and DCI, and were linearly correlated with their risks. Using subgroup analysis, there were no significant interactions between serum AIM2 levels and age, gender, hypertension and so on. There were substantially high predictive abilities of serum AIM2 for poor prognosis and DCI under the receiver operating characteristic curve. The combination models of DCI and poor prognosis, in which serum AIM2, WFNS scores and mFisher scores were incorporated, showed higher discriminatory efficiencies than anyone of the preceding three variables. Moreover, the models are delineated using the nomogram, and performed well under the calibration curve and decision curve. Serum AIM2 levels, with a substantial enhancement during early phase after aSAH, are closely related to bleeding severity, poor 90-day prognosis and DCI of patients, substantializing serum AIM2 as a potential prognostic biomarker of aSAH.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) is a rare yet profoundly debilitating condition associated with high global case fatality and morbidity rates. The key determinants of functional outcome include early brain injury, rebleeding of the ruptured aneurysm and delayed cerebral ischaemia. The only effective way to reduce the risk of rebleeding is to secure the ruptured aneurysm quickly. Prompt diagnosis, transfer to specialized centers, and meticulous management in the intensive care unit (ICU) significantly improved the prognosis of aSAH. Recently, multimodality monitoring with specific interventions to correct pathophysiological imbalances has been proposed. Vigilance extends beyond intracranial concerns to encompass systemic respiratory and haemodynamic monitoring, as derangements in these systems can precipitate secondary brain damage. Challenges persist in treating aSAH patients, exacerbated by a paucity of robust clinical evidence, with many interventions showing no benefit when tested in rigorous clinical trials. Given the growing body of literature in this field and the issuance of contemporary guidelines, our objective is to furnish an updated review of essential principles of ICU management for this patient population. Our review will discuss the epidemiology, initial stabilization, treatment strategies, long-term prognostic factors, the identification and management of post-aSAH complications. We aim to offer practical clinical guidance to intensivists, grounded in current evidence and expert clinical experience, while adhering to a concise format.

Abstract
Introduction High-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein is a critical mediator of neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation (NETosis). Myeloperoxidase (MPO)-DNA complexes, a biomarker of NETs, and HMGB1 have been associated with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Additional mechanistic NET-related biomarkers and their role in the neuroinflammatory cascade surrounding DCI remain to be explored. Methods A post-hoc analysis of a prospective, blinded, single-center biomarker observational study was performed. De novo measurements of serum citrullinated histone H3-DNA complexes (H3Cit-DNA), peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), cell-free DNA (cf-DNA), and DNase 1 activity were conducted on admission (D0) and day 4 (D4). Delayed cerebral infarction (DCI) was defined as new cerebral infarction on CT head not present on the post-treatment scan. Results H3Cit-DNA, PAD4, cf-DNA, and DNase 1 activity were within quantifiable ranges in all serum samples analyzed at D0 and D4. Admission biomarker levels were not associated with DCI development. From D0 to D4, in both the DCI and the non-DCI groups, H3Cit-DNA levels significantly decreased, cf-DNA levels significantly increased, and PAD4 levels remained stable. In contrast, DNase 1 activity significantly decreased from D0 to D4 in the DCI group (p < 0.001) but not in the non-DCI group. Conclusion This exploratory analysis demonstrated NET-related biomarkers such as H3Cit-DNA, PAD4, cf-DNA, and DNase 1 activity in all aSAH patients. A decline of systemic DNase 1 activity in the early phase might increase the risk of delayed cerebral ischemia.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is associated with high mortality and disability rates, and secondary white matter injury is an important cause of poor prognosis. However, whether brain capillary pericytes can directly affect the differentiation and maturation of oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and subsequently affect white matter injury repair has still been revealed. This study was designed to investigate the effect of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-3 (TIMP-3) for OPC differentiation and maturation. PDGFRβret/ret and wild-type C57B6J male mice were used to construct a mouse model of SAH via endovascular perforation in this study. Mice were also treated with vehicle, TIMP-3 RNAi or TIMP-3 RNAi + TIMP-3 after SAH. The effect of TIMP-3 on the differentiation and maturation of OPCs was determined using behavioral score, ELISA, transmission electron microscopy, immunofluorescence staining and cell culture. We found that TIMP-3 was secreted mainly by pericytes and that SAH and TIMP-3 RNAi caused a significant decrease in the TIMP-3 content, reaching a nadir at 24 h, followed by gradual recovery. In vitro, the myelin basic protein content of oligodendrocytes after oxyhemoglobin treatment was increased by TIMP-3 overexpression. The data indicates TIMP-3 could promote the differentiation and maturation of OPCs and subsequently improve neurological outcomes after SAH. Therefore, TIMP-3 could be beneficial for repair after white matter injury and could be a potential therapeutic target in SAH.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a form of severe acute stroke with very high mortality and disability rates. Early brain injury (EBI) and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) contribute to the poor prognosis of patients with SAH. Currently, some researchers have started to focus on changes in amino acid metabolism that occur in brain tissues after SAH. Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is semi-essential in animals, and it plays important roles in various processes, such as neurodevelopment, osmotic pressure regulation, and membrane stabilization. In acute stroke, such as cerebral hemorrhage, taurine plays a neuroprotective role. However, the role of taurine after subarachnoid hemorrhage has rarely been reported. In the present study, we established a mouse model of SAH. We found that taurine administration effectively improved the sensorimotor function of these mice. In addition, taurine treatment alleviated sensorimotor neuron damage and reduced the proportion of apoptotic cells. Furthermore, taurine treatment enhanced the polarization of astrocytes toward the neuroprotective phenotype while inhibiting their polarization toward the neurotoxic phenotype. This study is the first to reveal the relationship between taurine and astrocyte polarization and may provide a new strategy for SAH research and clinical treatment.

Nrf2 activation by neferine mitigates microglial neuroinflammation after subarachnoid hemorrhage through inhibiting TAK1-NF-κB signaling. Int Immunopharmacol 2024; 130:111693. [PMID: 38428144 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.111693] [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: 09/07/2023] [Revised: 02/02/2024] [Accepted: 02/12/2024] [Indexed: 03/03/2024]
Abstract
Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation are two major causes leading to early brain injury after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Nuclear factor E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is a critical transcription factor that contributes to antioxidant responses. Additionally, Nrf2 could inhibit transforming growth factor beta-activated kinase 1 (TAK1), which plays a vital role in microglial activation-mediated neuroinflammation. Neferine (NE) exhibits considerable protective effects in diverse disease models. However, the detailed effect and mechanism of NE on SAH remain unknown. Our data showed that NE treatment significantly reduced behavior and cognitive impairment, and brain edema in the early period after SAH. In addition, NE mitigated SAH-induced oxidative damage, neuroinflammation, and neural death. Moreover, NE inhibited M1 microglial polarization and enhanced M2 phenotype microglia both in vivo and in vitro. Further investigations revealed that NE enhanced the Nrf2-antioxidant response element (ARE) signaling pathway and suppressed TAK1-NF-κB signaling. In contrast, depletion of Nrf2 by ML385 suppressed Nrf2-ARE signaling, induced TAK1-NF-κB activation, and further promoted M1 microglial polarization. Additionally, ML385 abated the neuroprotective effects of NE against SAH. Notably, LPS also aggravated TAK1-NF-κB activation and reversed the beneficial effects of NE after SAH. In summary, NE provides protection after SAH by inhibiting oxidative stress and modulating microglial polarization through Nrf2 activation and TAK1-NF-κB suppression.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) carries significant mortality and morbidity, with nearly half of SAH survivors having major cognitive dysfunction that impairs their functional status, emotional health, and quality of life. Apart from the initial hemorrhage severity, secondary brain injury due to early brain injury and delayed cerebral ischemia plays a leading role in patient outcome after SAH. While many strategies to combat secondary brain injury have been developed in preclinical studies and tested in late phase clinical trials, only one (nimodipine) has proven efficacious for improving long-term functional outcome. The causes of these failures are likely multitude, but include use of therapies targeting only one element of what has proven to be multifactorial brain injury process. Conditioning is a therapeutic strategy that leverages endogenous protective mechanisms to exert powerful and remarkably pleiotropic protective effects against injury to all major cell types of the CNS. The aim of this article is to review the current body of evidence for the use of conditioning agents in SAH, summarize the underlying neuroprotective mechanisms, and identify gaps in the current literature to guide future investigation with the long-term goal of identifying a conditioning-based therapeutic that significantly improves functional and cognitive outcomes for SAH patients.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) presents a challenge to clinicians because of its multisystem effects. Advancements in computed tomography (CT), endovascular treatments, and neurocritical care have contributed to declining mortality rates. The critical care of aSAH prioritises cerebral perfusion, early aneurysm securement, and the prevention of secondary brain injury and systemic complications. Early interventions to mitigate cardiopulmonary complications, dyselectrolytemia and treatment of culprit aneurysm require a multidisciplinary approach. Standardised neurological assessments, transcranial doppler (TCD), and advanced imaging, along with hypertensive and invasive therapies, are vital in reducing delayed cerebral ischemia and poor outcomes. Health care disparities, particularly in the resource allocation for SAH treatment, affect outcomes significantly, with telemedicine and novel technologies proposed to address this health inequalities. This article underscores the necessity for comprehensive multidisciplinary care and the urgent need for large-scale studies to validate standardised treatment protocols for improved SAH outcomes.

Abstract
Patients who initially survive the rupture and repair of a brain aneurysm often take a devastating turn for the worse some days later and die or suffer permanent neurologic deficits. This catastrophic sequela is attributed to a delayed phase of global cerebral ischemia (DCI) following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), but we lack effective treatment. Here we present our view, based on 20 years of research, that the initial drop in blood flow at the time of rupture triggers genomic responses throughout the brain vasculature that manifest days later as increased vasoconstriction and decreased cerebral blood flow. We propose a novel treatment strategy to prevent DCI by early inhibition of the vascular mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway that triggers expression of vasoconstrictor and inflammatory mediators. We summarize evidence from experimental SAH models showing early treatment with MAPK inhibitors "switches off" these detrimental responses, maintains flow, and improves neurological outcome. This promising therapy is currently being evaluated in clinical trials.

Abstract
Neuroinflammation, a key pathological feature following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), can be therapeutically targeted by inhibiting microglia M1 polarization and promoting phenotypic transformation to M2 microglia. Interleukin-4 (IL-4) is a pleiotropic cytokine known to its regulation of physiological functions of the central nervous system (CNS) and mediate neuroinflammatory processes. However, its specific role in neuroinflammation and microglia responses following SAH remains unexplored. In this investigation, we established both in vivo and in vitro SAH models and employed a comprehensive array of assessments, including ELISA, neurofunctional profiling, immunofluorescence staining, qRT-PCR, determination of phagocytic capacity, and RNA-Seq analyses. The findings demonstrate an elevated expression of IL-4 within cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) subsequent to SAH. Furthermore, exogenous administration of IL-4 ameliorates post-SAH neurofunctional deficits, attenuates cellular apoptosis, fosters M2 microglia phenotype conversion, and mitigates neuroinflammatory responses. The RNA-Seq analysis signifies that IL-4 governs the modulation of neuroinflammation in microglia within an in vitro SAH model through intricate cascades of signaling pathways, encompassing interactions between cytokines and cytokine receptors. These discoveries not only augment comprehension of the neuropathogenesis associated with post-SAH neuroinflammation but also present novel therapeutic targets for the management thereof.

JOURNAL OF ETHNOPHARMACOLOGY 2024; 319:117335. [PMID: 37863400 DOI: 10.1016/j.jep.2023.117335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/12/2023] [Revised: 10/10/2023] [Accepted: 10/18/2023] [Indexed: 10/22/2023]
Abstract
ETHNOPHARMACOLOGICAL RELEVANCE Early brain damage (EBI) following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a long-lasting condition with a high occurrence. However, treatment options are restricted. Wu-zhu-yu Decoction (WZYD) can treat headaches and vomiting, which are similar to the early symptoms of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, it is yet unknown if WZYD can reduce EBI following SAH and its underlying mechanisms. AIM OF THE STUDY This study aimed to investigate whether WZYD protects against EBI following SAH by inhibiting oxidative stress through activating nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2)/heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) signaling via Sirtuin 6 (SIRT6)-mediated histone H3 lysine 56 (H3K56) deacetylation. MATERIALS AND METHODS In the current investigation, the principal components of WZYD were identified using high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection (HPLC-DAD). The SAH model in rats using the internal carotid artery plug puncture approach and the SAH model in primary neurons using hemoglobin incubation were developed. WZYD with different doses (137 mg kg-1, 274 mg kg-1, 548 mg kg-1) and the positive drug-Nimodipine (40 mg kg-1) were intragastrically administered in SAH model rats, respectively. The PC12 cells were cultured with corresponding medicated for 24h. In our investigation, neurological scores, brain water content, Evans blue leakage, Nissl staining, TUNEL staining, oxidative stress, expression of apoptosis-related proteins, and Nrf2/HO-1 signaling were evaluated. The interaction between SIRT6 and Nrf2 was detected by co-immunoprecipitation. SIRT6 knockdown was used to confirm its role in WZYD's neuroprotection. RESULTS The WZYD treatment dramatically reduced cerebral hemorrhage and edema, and enhanced neurological results in EBI following SAH rats. WZYD administration inhibited neuronal apoptosis via reducing the expression levels of Cleaved cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3(Cleaved Caspase-3), cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase-3(caspase-3), and Bcl-2, Associated X Protein (Bax) and increasing the expression of B-cell lymphoma-2(Bal2). It also decreased reactive oxygen species and malondialdehyde levels and increased Nrf2 and HO-1 expression in the rat brain after SAH. In vitro, WZYD attenuated hemoglobin-induced cytotoxicity, oxidative stress and apoptosis in primary neurons. Mechanistically, WZYD enhanced SIRT6 expression and H3K56 deacetylation, activated Nrf2/HO-1 signaling, and promoted the interaction between SIRT6 and Nrf2. Knockdown of SIRT6 abolished WZYD-induced neuroprotection. CONCLUSIONS WZYD attenuates EBI after SAH by activating Nrf2/HO-1 signaling through SIRT6-mediated H3K56 deacetylation, suggesting its therapeutic potential for SAH treatment.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) has increased with the aging of the population, but the outcome for elderly SAH patients is very poor. Therefore, predicting the outcome is important for determining whether to pursue aggressive treatment. Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a matricellular protein that is induced in the brain, and the plasma levels could be used as a biomarker for the severity of metabolic diseases. This study investigated whether acute-phase plasma PEDF levels could predict outcomes after aneurysmal SAH in the elderly. Plasma samples and clinical variables were collected over 1-3 days, post-SAH, from 56 consecutive elderly SAH patients ≥75 years of age registered in nine regional stroke centers in Japan between September 2013 and December 2016. The samples and variables were analyzed in terms of 3-month outcomes. Acute-phase plasma PEDF levels were significantly elevated in patients with ultimately poor outcomes, and the cutoff value of 12.6 µg/mL differentiated 3-month outcomes with high sensitivity (75.6%) and specificity (80.0%). Acute-phase plasma PEDF levels of ≥12.6 µg/mL were an independent and possibly better predictor of poor outcome than previously reported clinical variables. Acute-phase plasma PEDF levels may serve as the first biomarker to predict 3-month outcomes and to select elderly SAH patients who should be actively treated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Early brain injury (EBI) refers to a severe brain injury that occurs within hours to days after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Neuronal damage in EBI is considered a key factor leading to poor prognosis. Currently, our understanding of the mechanisms of neuronal damage, such as neuronal autophagy, is still incomplete. Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) is a key enzyme in metabolism and plays an important role in autophagy. Based on this, this study will further explore the regulation of autophagy by GAPDH after SAH, which may provide a new treatment strategy for improving the prognosis of SAH patients. METHODS The rat SAH model was established by endovascular puncturing, and the trend of autophagy in hippocampal neurons at different time points was discussed. Additionally, an in vitro SAH model was created using the oxygenated hemoglobin and hippocampal neuronal HT22 cell line. Through siRNA and overexpression adenovirus techniques, we further investigated the relationship between the key enzyme GAPDH and autophagy in the in vitro SAH model. RESULTS We observed significant neuronal damage in the hippocampus 24 h after SAH, and the proteomics showed significant enrichment of autophagy-related pathways at this time point. Further studies showed that the expression of LC3 and Beclin1 peaked at 24 h, and the nuclear translocation of GAPDH occurred simultaneously with SAH-induced neuronal autophagy. Our in vitro SAH model confirmed the role of GAPDH in regulating the level of autophagy in HT22 cells. Knockdown of GAPDH significantly reduced the level of autophagy, while overexpression of GAPDH increased the level of autophagy. CONCLUSION This study shows the trend of autophagy in hippocampal neurons after SAH, and reveals the regulatory role of GAPDH in SAH-induced autophagy. However, further studies are needed to reveal the exact mechanism of GAPDH in the nuclear translocation regulation of autophagy and validate in animal models.

Usability of serum inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4 as a biomarker for assessing severity and predicting functional outcome after human aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: A prospective observational cohort study at a single institution. Clin Chim Acta 2024; 552:117679.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Inter-α-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain 4 (ITIH4) may harbor anti-inflammatory activities. We sought to discern the predictive significance of serum ITIH4 for delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and clinical outcomes of human aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). METHODS At a single institution, we performed a prospective and observational cohort study of 148 patients with aSAH and 52 healthy controls. Poststroke six-month extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) score of 1-4 was designated as a poor prognosis. Prognosis associations were verified using multivariate analysis. RESULTS As compared to controls, patients had significantly declined serum ITIH4 concentrations from admission until day 10, with the lowest concentrations at days 1-3 after stroke. Serum ITIH4 concentrations, which were substantially decreased with the increasing Hunt-Hess scores or modified Fisher scores, were independently correlated with the two scores. Moreover, serum ITIH4 concentrations, which were markedly elevated in the order of GOSE scores from 1 to 8, together with Hunt-Hess scores and modified Fisher scores were independently related to GOSE scores and poor prognosis. However, serum ITIH4 concentrations were not independently predictive of DCI. Prediction model of poor prognosis integrating the preceding three variables were delineated using the nomogram, were verified under the calibration curve, and displayed high discriminatory efficiencies under the receiver operating characteristic curve. CONCLUSIONS A significant decline of serum ITIH4 concentrations during the early phase after aSAH was closely related to severity and poor prognosis, assuming that serum ITIH4 may represent a promising prognostic biomarker of aSAH.

Abstract
The occurrence of early brain injury (EBI) significantly contributes to the unfavorable prognosis observed in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). During the process of EBI, a substantial quantity of iron permeates into the subarachnoid space and brain tissue, thereby raising concerns regarding its metabolism. To investigate the role and metabolic processes of excessive iron in neurons, we established both in vivo and in vitro models of SAH. We substantiated that ferritinophagy participates in iron metabolism disorders and promotes neuronal ferroptosis using an in vivo model, as detected by key proteins such as ferritin heavy chain 1, glutathione peroxidase 4, autophagy related 5, nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4), LC3B, and electron microscopy results. By interfering with NCOA4 expression in vitro and in vivo, we confirmed the pivotal role of elevated NCOA4 levels in ferritinophagy during EBI. Additionally, our in vitro experiments demonstrated that the addition of oxyhemoglobin alone did not result in a significant upregulation of NCOA4 expression. However, simultaneous addition of oxyhemoglobin and hypoxia exposure provoked a marked increase in NCOA4 expression and heightened ferritinophagy in HT22 cells. Using YC-1 to inhibit hypoxia signaling in in vitro and in vitro models effectively attenuated neuronal ferroptosis. Collectively, we found that the hypoxic microenvironment during the process of EBI exaggerates iron metabolism abnormalities, leading to poor prognoses in SAH. The findings also offer a novel and potentially effective foundation for the treatment of SAH, with the aim of alleviating hypoxia.

Impact of ventriculo-cisternal irrigation on prevention of delayed cerebral infarction in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a single-center retrospective study and literature review. Neurosurg Rev 2023; 47:6.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of ventriculo-cisternal irrigation (VCI) in preventing vasospasms and delayed cerebral infarction (DCI) by washing out subarachnoid clots earlier after aneurysm surgery. METHODS We retrospectively identified 340 subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms treated with postoperative VCI at our institution between December 2010 and January 2020. As VCI therapy, a ventricular drain/cisternal drain was placed during aneurysm surgery, and lactated Ringer's solution was used for irrigation until day 4 of SAH, followed by intracranial pressure control at 5-10 cmH2O until day 14. RESULTS The median age was 65 years (interquartile range 52-75), with 236 female patients (69%). The World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies grade distribution was as follows: grade I or II, 175 patients (51%); grade III or IV, 84 (25%); and grade V, 81 (24%). With VCI management in all patients, total vasospasm occurred in 162 patients (48%), although the DCI incidence was low (23 patients [6.8%]). Major drainage-related complications were observed in five patients (1.5%). Early surgery, performed on SAH day 0 or 1, was identified as a preventive factor against DCI occurrence (odds ratio (OR) 0.21, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.07-0.67; P = 0.008), while additional surgery (4.76, 1.62-13.98; P = 0.005) and dyslipidemia (3.27, 1.24-8.63; P = 0.017) were associated with DCI occurrence. CONCLUSION Managing vasospasms with VCI after SAH is considered a safe and effective method to prevent DCI. Early surgery after SAH may be associated with a decreased risk of DCI with VCI therapy.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The efficacy of antiplatelet therapy (APT) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remains unclear. We performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to summarize the associations of APT use after aSAH with outcomes. METHODS We searched published medical literature to identify cohort studies involving adults with aSAH. The exposure was APT use after aSAH. Outcome measures were good functional outcome (modified Rankin Score 0-2 or Glasgow Outcome Scale 4-5), delayed cerebral ischemia (infarcts on neuroimaging), and intracranial hemorrhage. After assessing study heterogeneity and publication bias, we performed a meta-analysis using random-effects models to assess the strength of association between APT and SAH outcomes. RESULTS A total of 14 studies with 4228 aSAH patients were included. APT after aSAH was associated with good functional outcome (pooled relative risk, 1.08; 95% confidence interval, [CI], 1.02-1.15; I2 = 45%, p for heterogeneity = 0.04), but there was no relationship with delayed cerebral ischemia (pooled relative risk, 0.80; 95% confidence interval, [CI], 0.63-1.02; I2 = 61%, p for heterogeneity <0.01) or intracranial hemorrhage (pooled relative risk, 1.50; 95% confidence interval, [CI], 0.98-2.31; I2 = 0, p for heterogeneity =0.71). In additional analyses, APT resulted in good functional outcomes in endovascularly-treated patients. When stratified by type of medication, aspirin, clopidogrel, and ticlopidine were associated with good functional outcomes. CONCLUSIONS APT after aSAH was associated with a modest improvement in functional outcome, but there was no relationship with delayed cerebral ischemia or intracranial hemorrhage.

Abstract
Transforming growth factor-β-activated kinase 1 (TAK1) positively regulates oxidative stress and inflammation in different diseases. Takinib, a novel and specific TAK1 inhibitor, has beneficial effects in a variety of disorders. However, the effects of takinib on early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) and the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unknown. Our study showed that takinib administration significantly inhibited phosphorylated TAK1 expression after SAH. In addition, takinib suppressed M1 microglial polarization and promoted M2 microglial polarization. Furthermore, blockade of TAK1 by takinib reduced neuroinflammation, oxidative damage, brain edema, and neuronal apoptosis, and improved neurological behavior after SAH. Mechanistically, we revealed that TAK1 inhibition by takinib mitigated reactive oxygen species (ROS) production and ROS-mediated nod-like receptor pyrin domain-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation. In contrast, NLRP3 activation by nigericin abated the neuroprotective effects of takinib against EBI after SAH. In general, our study demonstrated that takinib could protect against EBI by targeting TAK1-ROS-NLRP3 inflammasome signaling. Inhibition of TAK1 might be a promising option in the management of SAH.

Abstract
The pathophysiology and consequences of early brain injury (EBI) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) remain incompletely understood. This study aims to investigate the role of orosomucoid (ORM) in aSAH, its potential as a marker for assessing the extent of EBI-induced damage, and its correlation with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and functional recovery over a 3-month period. We collected serum specimens 72 h post-aSAH to measure ORM levels. The study included 151 aSAH patients and 105 healthy subjects. The serum ORM levels within the patient cohort significantly exceeded those in the control group (p < 0.001). The ORM value showed significant correlation with the admission WFNS (p < 0.0001) and mFS scores (p < 0.05). Substantially elevated serum ORM levels at 72 h post-aSAH were detected among patients experiencing DCI, as well as those with poor functional outcomes after 3 months (p = 0.009 and p < 0.001). Binary logistic regression analyses revealed that serum ORM at 72 h post-SAH was independently associated with DCI and 3-month functional outcome after adjusting for confounders. The early stage events of aSAH influence the level of ORM. ORM serves as a marker for assessing the extent of damage during EBI and is linked to the occurrence of DCI as well as unfavorable long-term functional outcomes.

Int J Gen Med 2023; 16:3869-3887. [PMID: 37662499 PMCID: PMC10473418 DOI: 10.2147/ijgm.s428011] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2023] [Accepted: 08/23/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Sestrin2 functions as a neuroprotective factor. Herein, serum sestrin2 was investigated with respect to its associations with severity, delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and prognosis of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Methods In this prospective, observational, cohort, single-center study, serum sestrin2 levels were measured at entry into the study in 45 healthy controls and at admission in 135 aSAH patients. Also, they were gauged in other time points (namely, at days 1, 2, 3, 5 and 7) among 45 patients. Unfavorable prognosis was defined as extended Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOSE) scores of 1-4 at six months after aSAH. Results Serum sestrin2 levels were immediately raised at admission in patients, increased thereafter, peaked at day 2, declined afterwards till day 7, and were significantly higher than those in controls (all P<0.001). Serum sestrin2 levels had independent correlation with Hunt-Hess scores (beta, 1.715; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.595-2.835; P=0.003) and modified Fisher scores (beta, 2.505; 95% CI, 1.102-3.907; P=0.001). Alternatively, serum sestrin2 levels, which were independently correlated with 6-month GOSE scores (beta, -0.050; 95% CI, -0.099-0.001; P=0.044), were independently associated with DCI (odds ratio, 1.079; 95% CI, 1.008-1.156; P=0.029) and unfavorable prognosis (odds ratio, 1.093; 95% CI, 1.020-1.172; P=0.012). DCI and prognosis prediction models, which were composed of serum sestrin2, Hunt-Hess scores and modified Fisher scores, were comparatively stable and clinically beneficial under calibration curve and decision curve. Prognosis prediction model showed significantly higher area under receiver operating characteristic curve than serum sestrin2, Hunt-Hess scores and modified Fisher scores alone (all P<0.05). Conclusion A significant enhancement of serum sestrin2 levels after aSAH is independently related to severity, DCI and poor prognosis following aSAH. The models incorporating serum sestrin2 perform well in predicting the DCI and prognosis of aSAH patients. Presumably, determination of serum sestrin2 may be of clinical significance in aSAH.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a medical condition that can lead to intracranial hypertension, negatively impacting patients' outcomes. This review article explores the underlying pathophysiology that causes increased intracranial pressure (ICP) during hospitalization. Hydrocephalus, brain swelling, and intracranial hematoma could produce an ICP rise. Although cerebrospinal fluid withdrawal via an external ventricular drain is commonly used, ICP monitoring is not always consistently practiced. Indications for ICP monitoring include neurological deterioration, hydrocephalus, brain swelling, intracranial masses, and the need for cerebrospinal fluid drainage. This review emphasizes the importance of ICP monitoring and presents findings from the Synapse-ICU study, which supports a correlation between ICP monitoring and treatment with better patient outcomes. The review also discusses various therapeutic strategies for managing increased ICP and identifies potential areas for future research.

Abstract
Introduction Elevated intracranial pressure (ICP) and blood components are the main trigger factors starting the complex pathophysiological cascade following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). It is not clear whether they independently contribute to tissue damage or whether their impact cannot be differentiated from each other. We here aimed to establish a rat intracranial hypertension model that allows distinguishing the effects of these two factors and investigating the relationship between elevated ICP and hypoperfusion very early after SAH. Methods Blood or four different types of fluids [gelofusine, silicone oil, artificial cerebrospinal fluid (aCSF), aCSF plus xanthan (CX)] were injected into the cisterna magna in anesthetized rats, respectively. Arterial blood pressure, ICP and cerebral blood flow (CBF) were continuously measured up to 6 h after injection. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays were performed to measure the pro-inflammatory cytokines interleukin 6 (IL-6) and tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) in brain cortex and peripheral blood. Results Silicone oil injection caused deaths of almost all animals. Compared to blood, gelofusine resulted in lower peak ICP and lower plateau phase. Artificial CSF reached a comparable ICP peak value but failed to reach the ICP plateau of blood injection. Injection of CX with comparable viscosity as blood reproduced the ICP course of the blood injection group. Compared with the CBF course after blood injection, CX induced a comparable early global ischemia within the first minutes which was followed by a prompt return to baseline level with no further hypoperfusion despite an equal ICP course. The inflammatory response within the tissue did not differ between blood or blood-substitute injection. The systemic inflammation was significantly more pronounced in the CX injection group compared with the other fluids including blood. Discussion By cisterna magna injection of blood substitution fluids, we established a subarachnoid space occupying rat model that exactly mimicked the course of ICP in the first 6 h following blood injection. Fluids lacking blood components did not induce the typical prolonged hypoperfusion occurring after blood-injection in this very early phase. Our study strongly suggests that blood components rather than elevated ICP play an important role for early hypoperfusion events in SAH.

Blood inflammatory biomarkers predict in-hospital pneumonia after endovascular treatment of aneurysm in patients with aneurysmal subarachoid hemorrhage. Neurosurg Rev 2023; 46:171. [PMID: 37436536 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-023-02082-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/27/2023] [Revised: 06/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/13/2023]
Abstract
The systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) is a well-known marker of systemic inflammation reflecting the body's inflammatory/immune state. The study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the SIRI on admission and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH)-associated pneumonia and compare with other currently used bio-markers. We reviewed 562 successive patients with aneurysmal SAH who underwent endovascular treatment between January 2019 and September 2021. ASAH-associated pneumonia was diagnosed using the modified Centers for Disease Control and Prevention criteria. The SIRI on admission was calculated as monocyte count × neutrophil count / lymphocyte count. Multiple logistic regression models were used for data analysis. A total of 158 (28.11%) patients developed aSAH-associated pneumonia. Using the Multiple logistic regression analysis, a notable dose-response association was found between the elevated SIRI (fourth quartile) and aSAH-associated pneumonia (adjusted odds ratio = 6.759; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.280-13.930; p < 0.001 [p for trend < 0.001]). The SIRI (0.701, 95% CI: 0.653-0.749) presented a higher area under the curve (AUC) than systemic immune- inflammation index (SII) (0.669, 95% CI: 0.620-0.718) (p = 0.089); neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) (0.665, 95% CI: 0.616-0.714) (p = 0.035) and platelet-lymphocyte ratio (PLR) (0.587, 95% CI: 0.534-0.641) (p < 0.001). A higher SIRI on admission was associated with aSAH-associated pneumonia, which may guide further clinical trials of prophylactic antibiotic therapy.

Abstract
Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF-15), neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL), and ADAMTS13 have previously been implicated in the pathophysiological processes of SAH. In the present study, we aim to examine their role in the early period of SAH and their relationship to primary and secondary outcomes. Serum samples were collected at five time periods after SAH (at 24 h (D1), at 72 h (D3), at 120 h (D5), at 168 h (D7) and at 216 h (D9), post-admission) and) were measured by using MILLIPLEX Map Human Cardiovascular Disease (CVD) Magnetic Bead Panel 2. We included 150 patients with SAH and 30 healthy controls. GDF-15 levels at D1 to D9 were significantly associated with a 3-month unfavorable outcome. Based on the ROC analysis, in patients with a good clinical grade at admission (WFNS I-III), the GDF-15 value measured at time point D3 predicted a 3-month unfavorable outcome (cut-off value: 3.97 ng/mL, AUC:0.833, 95%CI: 0.728-0.938, sensitivity:73.7%, specificity:82.6%, p < 0.001). Univariate binary logistic regression analysis showed that serum NGAL levels at D1-D5 and ADAMTS13 levels at D7-D9 were associated with MVS following SAH. GDF-15 is an early indicator of a poor 3-month functional outcome even in patients with mild clinical conditions at admission.

Morphometric Study of the Initial Ventricular Indices to Predict the Complications and Outcome of Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. J Clin Med 2023; 12:jcm12072585. [PMID: 37048667 PMCID: PMC10095006 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12072585] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2022] [Revised: 03/11/2023] [Accepted: 03/27/2023] [Indexed: 04/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Objective: Acute hydrocephalus is a common complication in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Several ventricular indices have been introduced to enable measurements of ventricular morphology. Previously, researchers have showed their diagnostic value for various neurological disorders. In this study, we evaluated the association between ventricular indices and the clinical course, occurrence of complications and outcome of SAH. Methods: A total of 745 SAH patients with available early admission computed tomography scans were included in the analyses. Six ventricular indices (bifrontal, bicaudate, ventricular and third ventricle ratios and Evans’ and Huckman’s indices) were measured. Primary endpoints included the occurrence of cerebral infarctions, in-hospital mortality and a poor outcome at 6 months. Secondary endpoints included different adverse events in the course of SAH. Clinically relevant cut-offs for the indices were determined using receiver operating curves. Univariate analyses were performed. Multivariate analyses were conducted on significant findings in a stepwise backward regression model. Results: The higher the values of the ventricular indices were and the older the patient was, the higher the WFNS and Fisher’s scores were, and the lower the SEBES score was at admission. Patients with larger ventricles showed a shorter duration of intracranial pressure increase > 20 mmHg and required decompressive craniectomy less frequently. Ventricular indices were independently associated with the parameters of inflammatory response after SAH (C-reactive protein in serum and interleukin-6 in cerebrospinal fluid and fever). Finally, there were independent correlations between larger ventricles and all the primary endpoints. Conclusions: The lower risk of intracranial pressure increase and absence of an association with vasospasm or systemic infections during SAH, and the poorer outcome in individuals with larger ventricles might be related to a more pronounced neuroinflammatory response after aneurysmal bleeding. These observations might be helpful in the development of specific medical and surgical treatment strategies for SAH patients depending on the initial ventricle measurements.
