Neurosurg Rev 2023; 46:221. [PMID: 37665377 PMCID: PMC10477151 DOI: 10.1007/s10143-023-02120-2] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2023] [Revised: 07/12/2023] [Accepted: 08/15/2023] [Indexed: 09/05/2023]
Abstract
Antiplatelet therapy (AT) may serve to reduce the effects of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH)-induced pro-coagulant state in the cerebral circulation. Several studies, however, have delivered conflicting conclusions on the efficacy of AT post aSAH. Systematic searches of Medline, Embase, and Cochrane Central were undertaken on 27th March 2023. The primary outcome was delayed cerebral ischaemia (DCI). Secondary outcomes were symptomatic and angiographic vasospasm, good functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] with scores 0-2), hemorrhagic events, and in-hospital mortality. Twenty-two studies reporting 4378 patients with aSAH were included in the meta-analysis. AT was associated with lower rates of DCI (RR=0.62, 95% CI: 0.43; 0.89), symptomatic vasospasm (RR=0.63, 95% CI: 0.46; 0.86), and moderate/severe angiographic vasospasm (RR=0.74, 95% CI: 0.65; 0.84), with no effect on hemorrhagic complications (RR=1.36, 95% CI: 0.77; 2.41). When analyzing only post-ictal use of AT, AT additionally favored rates of good functional outcomes (RR=1.18, 95% CI: 1.10; 1.26) and in-hospital mortality (RR=0.56, 95% CI: 0.39; 0.80). In the subgroup treated with cilostazol, AT was associated with lower rates of DCI (RR=0.40, 95% CI: 0.32), symptomatic vasospasm (RR=0.47, 95% CI: 0.33; 0.65), moderate/severe angiographic vasospasm (RR=0.75, 95% CI: 0.57; 0.98) and good functional outcome (RR=1.24, 95% CI: 1.08; 1.43). In the surgically treated aSAH subgroup, AT favored rates of symptomatic vasospasm (RR=0.55, 95% CI: 0.30; 0.98), moderate/severe angiographic vasospasm (RR=0.70, 95% CI: 0.54; 0.90) and good functional outcome (RR=1.23, 95% CI: 1.09; 1.41). In the endovascularly treated aSAH subgroup, AT was associated with lower rates of in-hospital mortality (RR=0.60, 95% CI: 0.41; 0.88). In aSAH patients, post-ictal AT is associated with benefits in terms of rates of DCI, vasospasm, good functional outcomes, and in-hospital mortality without an increased risk of hemorrhagic events.

A systematic review and meta-analysis. Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2023; 165:199-210. [PMID: 36333624 PMCID: PMC9840585 DOI: 10.1007/s00701-022-05399-0] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/19/2022] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES DCI and hydrocephalus are the most common complications that predict poor outcomes after aSAH. The relationship between sex, DCI and hydrocephalus are not well established; thus, we aimed to examine sex differences in DCI and hydrocephalus following aSAH in a systematic review and meta-analysis. METHODS A systematic search was conducted using the PubMed, Scopus and Medline databases from inception to August 2022 to identify cohort, case control, case series and clinical studies reporting sex and DCI, acute and chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus (SDHC). Random-effects meta-analysis was used to pool estimates for available studies. RESULTS There were 56 studies with crude estimates for DCI and meta-analysis showed that women had a greater risk for DCI than men (OR 1.24, 95% CI 1.11-1.39). The meta-analysis for adjusted estimates for 9 studies also showed an association between sex and DCI (OR 1.61, 95% CI 1.27-2.05). For acute hydrocephalus, only 9 studies were included, and meta-analysis of unadjusted estimates showed no association with sex (OR 0.95, 95%CI 0.78-1.16). For SDHC, a meta-analysis of crude estimates from 53 studies showed that women had a somewhat greater risk of developing chronic hydrocephalus compared to men (OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.99-1.31). In meta-analysis for adjusted estimates from 5 studies, no association of sex with SDHC was observed (OR 0.87, 95% CI 0.57-1.33). CONCLUSIONS Female sex is associated with the development of DCI; however, an association between sex and hydrocephalus was not detected. Strategies to target females to reduce the development of DCI may decrease overall morbidity and mortality after aSAH.

Plasma Fibulin-5 Levels as an Independent Predictor of a Poor Outcome after an Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232315184. [PMID: 36499510 PMCID: PMC9740042 DOI: 10.3390/ijms232315184] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/24/2022] [Revised: 11/27/2022] [Accepted: 12/01/2022] [Indexed: 12/09/2022] Open
Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a poor-outcome disease with a delayed neurological exacerbation. Fibulin-5 (FBLN5) is one of matricellular proteins, some of which have been involved in SAH pathologies. However, no study has investigated FBLN5's roles in SAH. This study was aimed at examining the relationships between serially measured plasma FBLN5 levels and neurovascular events or outcomes in 204 consecutive aneurysmal SAH patients, including 77 patients (37.7%) with poor outcomes (90-day modified Rankin Scale 3-6). Plasma FBLN5 levels were not related to angiographic vasospasm, delayed cerebral ischemia, and delayed cerebral infarction, but elevated levels were associated with severe admission clinical grades, any neurological exacerbation and poor outcomes. Receiver-operating characteristic curves indicated that the most reasonable cut-off values of plasma FBLN5, in order to differentiate 90-day poor from good outcomes, were obtained from analyses at days 4-6 for all patients (487.2 ng/mL; specificity, 61.4%; and sensitivity, 62.3%) and from analyses at days 7-9 for only non-severe patient (476.8 ng/mL; specificity, 66.0%; and sensitivity, 77.8%). Multivariate analyses revealed that the plasma FBLN5 levels were independent determinants of the 90-day poor outcomes in both all patients' and non-severe patients' analyses. These findings suggest that the delayed elevation of plasma FBLN5 is related to poor outcomes, and that FBLN5 may be a new molecular target to reveal a post-SAH pathophysiology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) is a potentially preventable cause of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). The authors performed a meta-analysis to assess the effect of antiplatelet therapy (APT) on DCI in patients with aSAH. METHODS A systematic review of the PubMed and MEDLINE databases was performed. Study inclusion criteria were 1) ≥ 5 aSAH patients; 2) direct comparison between aSAH management with APT and without APT; and 3) reporting of DCI, angiographic, or symptomatic vasospasm rates for patients treated with versus without APT. The primary efficacy outcome was DCI. The outcomes of the APT versus no-APT cohorts were compared. Bias was assessed using the Downs and Black checklist. RESULTS The overall cohort comprised 2039 patients from 15 studies. DCI occurred less commonly in the APT compared with the no-APT cohort (pooled = 15.9% vs 28.6%; OR 0.47, p < 0.01). Angiographic (pooled = 51.6% vs 68.7%; OR 0.46, p < 0.01) and symptomatic (pooled = 23.6% vs 37.7%; OR 0.51, p = 0.01) vasospasm rates were lower in the APT cohort. In-hospital mortality (pooled = 1.7% vs 4.1%; OR 0.53, p = 0.01) and functional dependence (pooled = 21.0% vs 35.7%; OR 0.53, p < 0.01) rates were also lower in the APT cohort. Bleeding event rates were comparable between the two cohorts. Subgroup analysis of cilostazol monotherapy compared with no APT demonstrated a lower DCI rate in the cilostazol cohort (pooled = 10.6% vs 28.1%; OR 0.31, p < 0.01). Subgroup analysis of surgically treated aneurysms demonstrated a lower DCI rate for the APT cohort (pooled = 18.4% vs 33.9%; OR 0.43, p = 0.02). CONCLUSIONS APT is associated with improved outcomes in aSAH without an increased risk of bleeding events, particularly in patients who underwent surgical aneurysm repair and those treated with cilostazol. Although study heterogeneity is the most significant limitation of the analysis, the findings suggest that APT is worth exploring in patients with aSAH, particularly in a randomized controlled trial setting.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To perform an updated meta-analysis to comprehensively assess the efficacy and safety of cilostazol in preventing aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH)-related secondary complications. METHODS Electronic databases of PubMed, the Cochrane library, CNKI and Wanfang were searched on August 2021. Pooled odds ratio (OR) and standardized mean difference (SMD) were calculated for dichotomous and continuous outcomes, respectively. RESULTS A total of 14 studies [comprising 18,726 aneurysmal SAH patients (6654 in the cilostazol group and 12,072 in the control group)] performed in Japan or China were included. Compared with the control group, cilostazol treatment significantly reduced the median cerebral artery (SMD = -0.49; p < 0.001), improved the therapeutic efficacy (OR = 2.37; p = 0.009), decreased the incidence of symptomatic vasospasm/delayed cerebral ischemia (OR = 0.42; p < 0.001), severe angiographic vasospasm (OR = 0.54; p < 0.001), new cerebral infarction (OR = 0.33; p < 0.001), poor outcomes (OR = 0.86; p = 0.001), mortality (OR = 0.62; p < 0.001) and increased the incidence of no or mild angiographic vasospasm (OR = 1.94; p = 0.004), but did not induce more adverse events (OR = 1.08; p = 0.871). The mechanism of cilostazol treatment was to inhibit the production of tenascin-C (SMD = -1.46; p < 0.001). These results were hardly changed by subgroup analysis. CONCLUSION This meta-analysis indicates cilostazol may be an effective and safe drug for aneurysmal SAH patients. However, further trials involving other world populations are required to demonstrate the generalization of treatment effects of cilostazol.

Abstract
Hydrocephalus is a common complication of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and reportedly contributes to poor neurological outcomes. In this review, we summarize the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of hydrocephalus following aSAH and summarize its treatment strategies. Various mechanisms have been implicated for the development of chronic hydrocephalus following aSAH, including alterations in cerebral spinal fluid (CSF) dynamics, obstruction of the arachnoid granulations by blood products, and adhesions within the ventricular system. Regarding molecular mechanisms that cause chronic hydrocephalus following aSAH, we carried out an extensive review of animal studies and clinical trials about the transforming growth factor-β/SMAD signaling pathway, upregulation of tenascin-C, inflammation-dependent hypersecretion of CSF, systemic inflammatory response syndrome, and immune dysregulation. To identify the ideal treatment strategy, we discuss the predictive factors of shunt-dependent hydrocephalus between surgical clipping and endovascular coiling groups. The efficacy and safety of other surgical interventions including the endoscopic removal of an intraventricular hemorrhage, placement of an external ventricular drain, the use of intraventricular or cisternal fibrinolysis, and an endoscopic third ventriculostomy on shunt dependency following aSAH were also assessed. However, the optimal treatment is still controversial, and it necessitates further investigations. A better understanding of the pathogenesis of acute and chronic hydrocephalus following aSAH would facilitate the development of treatments and improve the outcome.

Abstract
Stroke is still one of the most common causes for mortality and morbidity worldwide. Following acute stroke onset, biochemical and cellular changes induce further brain injury such as neuroinflammation, cell death, and blood-brain barrier disruption. Matricellular proteins are non-structural proteins induced by many stimuli and tissue damage including stroke induction, while its levels are generally low in a normal physiological condition in adult tissues. Currently, a matricellular protein tenascin-C (TNC) is considered to be an important inducer to promote neuroinflammatory cascades and the resultant pathology in stroke. TNC is upregulated in cerebral arteries and brain tissues including astrocytes, neurons, and brain capillary endothelial cells following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). TNC may be involved in blood-brain barrier disruption, neuronal apoptosis, and cerebral vasospasm via the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and nuclear factor-kappa B following SAH. In addition, post-SAH TNC levels in cerebrospinal fluid predicted the development of delayed cerebral ischemia and angiographic vasospasm in clinical settings. On the other hand, TNC is reported to promote fibrosis and exert repair effects for an experimental aneurysm via macrophages-induced migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells. The authors review TNC-induced inflammatory signal cascades and the relationships with other matricellular proteins in stroke-related pathology.

Abstract
A matricellular protein osteopontin (OPN) is considered to exert neuroprotective and healing effects on neurovascular injuries in an acute phase of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). However, the relationships between OPN expression and chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus (SDHC) have never been investigated. In 166 SAH patients (derivation and validation cohorts, 110 and 56, respectively), plasma OPN levels were serially measured at days1-3, 4-6, 7-9, and 10-12 after aneurysmal obliteration. The OPN levels and clinical factors were compared between patients with and without subsequent development of chronic SDHC. Plasma OPN levels in the SDHC patients increased from days 1-3 to days 4-6 and remained high thereafter, while those in the non-SDHC patients peaked at days 4-6 and then decreased over time. Plasma OPN levels had no correlation with serum levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), a systemic inflammatory marker. Univariate analyses showed that age, modified Fisher grade, acute hydrocephalus, cerebrospinal fluid drainage, and OPN and CRP levels at days 10-12 were significantly different between patients with and without SDHC. Multivariate analyses revealed that higher plasma OPN levels at days 10-12 were an independent factor associated with the development of SDHC, in addition to a more frequent use of cerebrospinal fluid drainage and higher modified Fisher grade at admission. Plasma OPN levels at days 10-12 maintained similar discrimination power in the validation cohort and had good calibration on the Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test. Prolonged higher expression of OPN may contribute to the development of post-SAH SDHC, possibly by excessive repairing effects promoting fibrosis in the subarachnoid space.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix is composed of a variety of macromolecular substances secreted by cells, which form a complex network that supports and connects tissue structures, regulates the morphogenesis of tissues, and maintains the physiological activities of cells. Tenascin-C, a secreted extracellular matrix glycoprotein, is abundantly expressed after exposure to pathological stimuli. It plays an important regulatory role in brain tumors, vascular diseases, and neurodegenerative diseases by mediating inflammatory responses, inducing brain damage, and promoting cell proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis through multiple signaling pathways. Therefore, tenascin-C may become a potential therapeutic target for intracranial diseases. Here, we review and discuss the latest literature regarding tenascin-C, and we comprehensively explain the role and clinical significance of tenascin-C in intracranial diseases.

Abstract
Background Chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus is still a common complication after aneurysmal SAH (aSAH) and is associated with increased morbidity. Pathology of chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus after aSAH is complex and multifactorial which makes its prevention challenging. We thought to evaluate whether external ventricular drainage (EVD) through fenestrated lamina terminalis would decrease the rate of chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus after aSAH. Methods A retrospective analysis of 68 consecutive patients with aSAH who underwent microsurgical clipping of the ruptured aneurysm. Patients were divided into two groups: Group A included patients with lamina terminalis fenestration without insertion of ventriculostomy tube and Group B included patients with EVD through fenestrated lamina terminalis. Demographic, clinical, radiological, and outcome variables were compared between groups. Results Group A comprised 29 patients with mean age of 47.8 years and Group B comprised 39 patients with mean age of 46.6 years. Group B patients had statistically significant (P < 0.05) lower incidence of chronic shunt- dependent hydrocephalus than Group A patients (30.8% vs. 55.2%, respectively). Conclusion EVD through fenestrated lamina terminalis is safe and may be effective in decreasing the incidence of chronic shunt-dependent hydrocephalus after aSAH.

Abstract
With the advent of an aging society, more elderly patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) have been treated. We investigated if prognostic factors differ with age in aSAH patients. In a prospectively maintained aSAH database at multiple institutions from 2013 to 2016, 238 patients who underwent clipping or coiling for a ruptured aneurysm within 48 h of onset were divided into elderly (≥75 years; 57 patients) and non-elderly groups, or categorized into 4-age groups (<54, 55-64, 65-74, and ≥75 years). Prognostic factors and clinical characteristics were retrospectively analyzed. The elderly group had a higher incidence of pre-morbidities, co-morbidities, poor admission World Federation of Neurological Surgeons (WFNS) grades, modified Fisher grade 4, and resultantly 90-day poor outcomes (modified Rankin scale [mRS] 3-6). Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that independent determinants for poor outcomes were hypertension and modified Fisher grade 4 in the elderly group, and admission WFNS grades IV-V, systemic complications, non-procedural cerebral infarction and shunt-dependent chronic hydrocephalus in the non-elderly group. The 4-age group analyses showed that higher age group was more frequently associated with the prognostic factors. As higher age itself causes poor outcomes and more association of prognostic factors, prognostic factors in elderly patients may be rather limited.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is a disease caused by the infiltration of blood into the subarachnoid space due to the rupture of an intracranial aneurysm. It is a serious cerebrovascular disease, with a mortality rate of about 40% worldwide, which seriously threatens human life and health. Many drugs are used to treat aSAH and its complications, and some have been tested in systematic reviews and have shown good effects. But which drug has the best effect remains unclear. This network meta-analysis (NMA) aims to assess the effectiveness and feasibility of clazosentan, cilostazol, and statins in patients with aSAH. METHODS We will search for EMBASE.com, PubMed, the Cochrane Library, and Web of Science from inception to December 2019. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) reporting efficacy and safety of clazosentan, cilostazol, and statins compared with the control, or compared with each other for the treatment of aSAH will be included. Two independent reviewers will assess the risk of bias of the included RCTs with the Cochrane "Risk of bias" tool. The pairwise meta-analysis will be performed with the random-effects model. The NMA will be performed in a Bayesian hierarchical framework using Markov Chain Monte Carlo method in WinBUGS 1.4.3. Egger test and funnel plot will be used to assess the publication bias. We will evaluate the quality of evidence for each outcome according to the GRADE approach. RESULTS The results of this NMA will be submitted to a peer-reviewed journal for publication. CONCLUSION This study will summarize up-to-date evidence to compare the efficacy and safety of clazosentan, cilostazol, and statins on aSAH.PROSPERO registration number: CRD42019147523.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a devastating cerebrovascular disorder. Neuroinflammation is a critical cause of brain injury following SAH in both acute and chronic phases. While accumulating evidence has shown that therapies targeting neuroinflammation exerted beneficial effects in experimental SAH, there is little clinical evidence. One of the factors making neuroinflammation complicated is that inflammatory signaling pathways and mediators act as protective or detrimental responses at different phases. In addition, biomarkers to detect neuroinflammation are little known in clinical settings. In this review, first, we discuss how the inflammatory signaling pathways contribute to brain injury and other secondary pathophysiological changes in SAH. Damage-associated molecular patterns arising from mechanical stress, transient global cerebral ischemia, red blood cell breakdown and delayed cerebral ischemia following SAH trigger to activate pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) such as Toll-like receptors, nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptors, and receptors for advanced glycation end products. Most of PRRs activate common downstream signaling transcriptional factor nuclear factor-κΒ and mitogen-activated protein kinases, releasing pro-inflammatory mediators and cytokines. Next, we focus on how pro-inflammatory substances play a role during the course of SAH. Finally, we highlight an important inducer of neuroinflammation, matricellular protein (MCP). MCPs are a component of extracellular matrix and exert beneficial and harmful effects through binding to receptors, other matrix proteins, growth factors, and cytokines. Treatment targeting MCPs is being proved efficacious in pre-clinical models for preventing brain injury including neuroinflammation in SAH. In addition, MCPs may be a candidate of biomarkers predicting brain injury following SAH in clinical settings.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Reliable tools are lacking to predict shunt-dependent hydrocephalus (SDHC) development after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Quantitative volumetric measurement of hemorrhagic blood is a good predictor of SDHC but might be impractical in the clinical setting. Qualitative assessment performed using scales such as the modified Fisher scale (mFisher) and the original Graeb scale (oGraeb) is easier to conduct but provides limited predictive power. In between, the modified Graeb scale (mGraeb) keeps the simplicity of the qualitative scales yet adds assessment of acute hydrocephalus, which might improve SDHC-predicting capabilities. In this study the authors investigated the likely capabilities of the mGraeb and compared them with previously validated methods. This research also aimed to define a tailored mGraeb cutoff point for SDHC prediction. METHODS The authors performed retrospective analysis of patients admitted to their institution with the diagnosis of aSAH between May 2013 and April 2016. Out of 168 patients, 78 were included for analysis after the application of predefined exclusion criteria. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to evaluate the use of all 4 methods (quantitative volumetric assessment and the mFisher, oGraeb, and mGraeb scales) to predict the likelihood of SDHC development based on clinical data and blood amount assessment on initial CT scans. RESULTS The mGraeb scale was demonstrated to be the most robust predictor of SDHC, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.848 (95% CI 0.763-0.933). According to the AUC results, the performance of the mGraeb scale was significantly better than that of the oGraeb scale (χ2 = 4.49; p = 0.034) and mFisher scale (χ2 = 7.21; p = 0.007). No statistical difference was found between the AUCs of the mGraeb and the quantitative volumetric measurement models (χ2 = 12.76; p = 0.23), but mGraeb proved to be the simplest model since it showed the lowest Akaike information criterion (66.4), the lowest Bayesian information criterion (71.2), and the highest R2Nagelkerke coefficient (39.7%). The initial mGraeb showed more than 85% specificity for predicting the development of SDHC in patients presenting with a score of 12 or more points. CONCLUSIONS According to the authors' data, the mGraeb scale is the simplest model that correlates well with SDHC development. Due to limited scientific evidence of treatments aimed at SDHC prevention, we propose an mGraeb score higher than 12 to identify patients at risk with high specificity. This mGraeb cutoff point might also serve as a useful prognostic tool since patients with SDHC after aSAH have worse functional outcomes.

Abstract
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is expressed in various cell types in the central nervous system and exerts maximal inflammatory responses among the TLR family members. TLR4 can be activated by many endogenous ligands having damage-associated molecular patterns including heme and fibrinogen at the rupture of a cerebral aneurysm, and therefore its activation is reasonable as an initial step of cascades to brain injuries after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). TLR4 activation induces tenascin-C (TNC), a representative of matricellular proteins that are a class of inducible, nonstructural, secreted, and multifunctional extracellular matrix glycoproteins. TNC is also an endogenous activator and inducer of TLR4, forming positive feedback mechanisms leading to more activation of the signaling transduction. Our studies have demonstrated that TLR4 as well as TNC are involved in inflammatory reactions, blood-brain barrier disruption, neuronal apoptosis, and cerebral vasospasm after experimental SAH. This article reviews recent understanding of TLR4 and TNC in SAH to suggest that the TLR4-TNC signaling may be an important therapeutic target for post-SAH brain injuries.

Effectiveness and feasibility of cilostazol in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage: a systematic review and meta-analysis. J Neurol 2019; 267:1577-1584.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Delayed cerebral ischemia seriously affects the prognosis of patients surviving the initial aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Application of cilostazol was reported to ameliorate vasospasm and improve outcomes in series and clinical trials. But the effectiveness and feasibility of cilostazol on aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage remained controversial. We performed a systematic review to clarify this issue. METHODS PubMed, Ovid and Cochrane library database were systematically searched up to May 2018 for eligible publications in English. Quality assessment was conducted for included studies. Meta-analysis was conducted to evaluate the overall effect on events of interest. Subgroup analyses and sensitivity analyses were used to check whether the results were robust. Publication bias was evaluated with the funnel plot. RESULTS Pooled analyses found cilostazol significantly reduced incidences of severe angiographic vasospasm (p = 0.0001), symptomatic vasospasm (p < 0.00001), new cerebral infarction (p < 0.00001) and the poor outcome (p < 0.0001). Subgroup and sensitivity analyses achieved consistent results. There was no statistical difference between cilostazol and the control group in reducing mortality (p = 0.07). But sensitivity analysis changed the result after excluding one study. Under the prescribed dosage, complication was few and non-lethal. CONCLUSIONS Cilostazol was effective and safe to reduce incidences of severe angiographic vasospasm, symptomatic vasospasm, new cerebral infarction and poor outcome in patients after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, its effect on mortality and the interactive effect with nimodipine warranted further research.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) by a rupture of cerebral aneurysms remains the most devastating cerebrovascular disease. Early brain injury (EBI) is increasingly recognized to be the primary determinant for poor outcomes, and also considered to cause delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) after SAH. Both clinical and experimental literatures emphasize the impact of global cerebral edema in EBI as negative prognostic and direct pathological factors. The nature of the global cerebral edema is a mixture of cytotoxic and vasogenic edema, both of which may be caused by post-SAH induction of tenascin-C (TNC) that is an inducible, non-structural, secreted and multifunctional matricellular protein. Experimental SAH induces TNC in brain parenchyma in rats and mice. TNC knockout suppressed EBI in terms of brain edema, blood-brain barrier disruption, neuronal apoptosis and neuroinflammation, associated with the inhibition of post-SAH activation of mitogen-activated protein kinases and nuclear factor-kappa B in mice. In a clinical setting, more severe SAH increases more TNC in cerebrospinal fluid and peripheral blood, which could be a surrogate marker of EBI and predict DCI development and outcomes. In addition, cilostazol, a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type III that is a clinically available anti-platelet agent and is known to suppress TNC induction, dose-dependently inhibited delayed cerebral infarction and improved outcomes in a pilot clinical study. Thus, further studies may facilitate application of TNC as biomarkers for non-invasive diagnosis or assessment of EBI and DCI, and lead to development of a molecular target drug against TNC, contributing to the improvement of post-SAH outcomes.

Abstract
Cilostazol is a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type III that downregulates tenascin-C (TNC), a matricellular protein, which may cause delayed cerebral infarction after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The authors increased the dosage and evaluated the dose-dependent effects of cilostazol on delayed cerebral infarction and outcomes in SAH patients. This was a retrospective cohort study in a single center. One hundred fifty-six consecutive SAH patients including 67 patients of admission World Federation of Neurological Surgeons grades IV-V who underwent aneurysmal obliteration within 48 h post-SAH from 2007 to 2017 were analyzed. Cilostazol (0 to 300 mg/day) was administered from 1-day post-clipping or post-coiling to day 14 or later. Cilostazol treatment dose-dependently decreased delayed cerebral infarction and tended to improve outcomes, although cilostazol did not affect other outcome measures including angiographic vasospasm. On multivariate analyses, 300 mg/day (100 mg three times) cilostazol independently decreased delayed cerebral infarction and improved 3-month outcomes, but other regimens including 200 mg/day (100 mg twice) cilostazol were not independent prognostic factors. Propensity score-matched analyses showed that the 300 mg/day cilostazol cohort had lower plasma TNC levels and a lower incidence of delayed cerebral infarction associated with better outcomes compared with the non-cilostazol cohort. The 300 mg/day cilostazol may improve post-SAH outcomes by reducing plasma TNC levels and delayed cerebral infarction, but not vasospasm. Further studies are warranted to investigate if 300 mg/day cilostazol is more beneficial to post-SAH outcomes than a usual dose of 200 mg/day cilostazol that was demonstrated to be effective in randomized controlled trials.

Possible Role of Inflammation and Galectin-3 in Brain Injury after Subarachnoid Hemorrhage. Brain Sci 2018; 8:brainsci8020030.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is known as one of the most devastating diseases in the central nervous system. In the past few decades, research on SAH has focused on cerebral vasospasm to prevent post-SAH delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and to improve outcomes. However, increasing evidence has suggested that early brain injury (EBI) is an important mechanism contributing to DCI, cerebral vasospasm as well as poor outcomes. Though the mechanism of EBI is very complex, inflammation is thought to play a pivotal role in EBI. Galectin-3 is a unique chimera type in the galectin family characterized by its β-galactoside-binding lectin, which mediates various pathologies, such as fibrosis, cell adhesion, and inflammation. Recently, two clinical studies revealed galectin-3 to be a possible prognostic biomarker in SAH patients. In addition, our recent report suggested that higher acute-stage plasma galectin-3 levels correlated with subsequent development of delayed cerebral infarction that was not associated with vasospasm in SAH patients. We review the possible role and molecular mechanisms of inflammation as well as galectin-3 in brain injuries, especially focusing on EBI after SAH, and discuss galectin-3 as a potential new therapeutic or research target in post-SAH brain injuries.
