Abstract
PURPOSE Impaired cerebral pressure autoregulation is common and detrimental after acute brain injuries. Based on the prevalence of delayed cerebral ischemia in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) patients compared to traumatic brain injury (TBI), we hypothesized that the type of autoregulatory disturbance and the optimal PRx range may differ between these two conditions. The aim of this study was to determine the optimal PRx ranges in relation to functional outcome following aSAH and TBI, respectively. METHODS In this observational study, 487 aSAH patients and 413 TBI patients, treated in the neurointensive care, Uppsala, Sweden, between 2008 and 2018, were included. The percentage of good monitoring time (%GMT) of PRx was calculated within 8 intervals covering the range from -1.0 to + 1.0, and analyzed in relation to favorable outcome (GOS-E 5 to 8). RESULTS In multiple logistic regressions, a higher %GMTs of PRx in the intervals -1.0 to -0.5 and + 0.75 to + 1.0 were independently associated with a lower rate of favorable outcome in the aSAH cohort. In a similar analysis in the TBI cohort, only positive PRx in the interval + 0.75 to + 1.0 was independently associated with a lower rate of favorable outcome. CONCLUSION Extreme PRx values in both directions were unfavorable in aSAH, possibly as high PRx could indicate proximal vasospasm with exhausted distal vasodilatory reserve, while very negative PRx could reflect myogenic hyperreactivity with suppressed cerebral blood flow. Only elevated PRx was unfavorable in TBI, possibly as pressure passive vessels may be a more predominant pathomechanism in this disease.

Abstract
Pneumonia is a common postoperative complication in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), which is associated with poor prognosis and increased mortality. The aim of this study was to develop a predictive model for postoperative pneumonia (POP) in patients with aSAH. A retrospective analysis was conducted on 308 patients with aSAH who underwent surgery at the Neurosurgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression and lasso regression analysis were used to analyze the risk factors for POP. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, calibration curve, and decision curve analysis (DCA) were used to evaluate the constructed model. Finally, the effectiveness of modeling these six variables in different machine learning methods was investigated. In our patient cohort, 23.4% (n = 72/308) of patients experienced POP. Univariate, multivariate logistic regression analysis and lasso regression analysis revealed age, Hunt-Hess grade, mechanical ventilation, leukocyte count, lymphocyte count, and platelet count as independent risk factors for POP. Subsequently, these six factors were used to build the final model. We found that age, Hunt-Hess grade, mechanical ventilation, leukocyte count, lymphocyte count, and platelet count were independent risk factors for POP in patients with aSAH. Through validation and comparison with other studies and machine learning models, our novel predictive model has demonstrated high efficacy in effectively predicting the likelihood of pneumonia during the hospitalization of aSAH patients.

Correlation and concordance of carotid Doppler ultrasound and echocardiography with invasive cardiac output measurement in critically ill patients. Intensive Care Med Exp 2024; 12:69. [PMID: 39133363 PMCID: PMC11319701 DOI: 10.1186/s40635-024-00653-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2024] [Accepted: 07/21/2024] [Indexed: 08/13/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Critical care management heavily relies on accurate cardiac output (CO) measurement. Echocardiography has been a mainstay in non-invasive cardiac monitoring; however, its comparability to invasive methods warrants further exploration. Recent studies have suggested the potential of carotid Doppler measurements as a promising approach to estimate CO. Despite this potential, the literature presents mixed outcomes regarding its reliability and accuracy. This study aims to evaluate the correlation and concordance between carotid Doppler ultrasonography and invasive hemodynamic monitoring in estimating CO in critically ill patients. Furthermore, it assesses the concordance and correlation between echocardiography CO and the standard invasive CO measurements. METHODS This concordance study involved critically ill adults requiring invasive CO measurement. Patients with arrhythmias, severe valvulopathy, pregnancy, and poor acoustic window were excluded. Statistical analyses comprised univariate analysis, Wilcoxon signed-rank test, Spearman correlation, and intraclass correlation coefficient. Ethical approval was granted by the institution's ethics committee. RESULTS A total of 49 critically ill patients were included, predominantly male (63.27%), with a median age of 57 years. Diagnoses included subarachnoid hemorrhage (53.06%) and heart failure (8.16%). Mean cardiac index was 3.36 ± 0.81 L/min/m2 and mean cardiac output was 5.98 ± 1.47 L/min. Spearman correlation coefficient between echocardiography and invasive CO measurements was 0.58 (p-value = p < 0.001), with an ICC of 0.59 for CO and 0.52 for cardiac index. Carotid measurements displayed no significant correlation with invasive CO. CONCLUSION There is a moderate correlation and concordance between echocardiography and invasive CO measurements. There is no significant correlation between carotid variables and invasive CO, underscoring the necessity for cautious interpretation and application, particularly in patients with distinctive cerebral blood flow dynamics.

Abstract
BACKGROUND In the perioperative setting, the most accurate way to continuously measure arterial blood pressure (ABP) is using an arterial catheter. Surrogate methods such as finger cuff have been developed to allow non-invasive measurements and are increasingly used, but need further evaluation. The aim of this study is to evaluate the accuracy and clinical concordance between two devices for the measurement of ABP during neuroradiological procedure. METHODS This is a prospective, monocentric, observational study. All consecutive patients undergoing a neuroradiological procedure were eligible. Patients who needed arterial catheter for blood pressure measurement were included. During neuroradiological procedure, ABP (systolic, mean and diatolic blood pressure) was measured with two different technologies: radial artery catheter and Nexfin. Bland-Altman and error grid analyses were performed to evaluate the accuracy and clinical concordance between devices. RESULTS From March 2022 to November 2022, we included 50 patients, mostly ASA 3 (60%) and required a cerebral embolization (94%) under general anaesthesia (96%). Error grid analysis showed that 99% of non-invasive ABP measures obtained with the Nexfin were located in the risk zone A or B. However, 65.7% of hypertension events and 41% of hypotensive events were respectively not detected by Nexfin. Compared to the artery catheter, a significant relationship was found for SAP (r2 = 0.78) and MAP (r2 = 0.80) with the Nexfin (p < 0.001). Bias and limits of agreement (LOA) were respectively 9.6 mmHg (- 15.6 to 34.8 mmHg) and - 0.8 mmHg (- 17.2 to 15.6 mmHg), for SAP and MAP. CONCLUSIONS Nexfin is not strictly interchangeable with artery catheter for ABP measuring. Further studies are needed to define its clinical use during neuroradiological procedure.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The vagal, stellate, and cardiac ganglia cells changes following subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) may occur. This study aimed to investigate if there is any relation between vagal network/stellate ganglion and intrinsic cardiac ganglia insult following SAH. MATERIALS AND METHODS Twenty-six rabbits were used in this study. Animals were randomly divided as control (GI, n = 5); SHAM 0.75 cc of saline-injected (n = 5) and study with autologous 1.5 cc blood injection into their cisterna magna(GIII, n = 15). All animals were followed for three weeks and then decapitated. Their motor vagal nucleus, nodose, stellate, and intracardiac ganglion cells were estimated by stereological methods and compared statistically. RESULTS Numerical documents of heart-respiratory rates, vagal nerve- ICG, and stellate neuron densities as follows: 276 ± 32/min-22 ± 3/min-10.643 ± 1.129/mm3-4 ± 1/mm3-12 ± 3/mm3 and 2 ± 1/cm3 in the control group; 221 ± 22/min-16 ± 4/min-8.699 ± 976/mm3-24 ± 9/mm3-103 ± 32/mm3 and 11 ± 3/cm3 in the SHAM group; and 191 ± 23/min-17 ± 4/min-9.719 ± 932/mm3-124 ± 31/mm3-1.542 ± 162/mm3 and 32 ± 9/cm3 in the SAH (study) group. The animals with burned neuro-cardiac web had more neurons of stellate ganglia and a less normal neuron density of nodose ganglia (p < 0.005). CONCLUSION Sypathico-parasympathetic imbalance induced vagal nerve-ICG disruption following SAH could be named as Burned Neurocardiac Web syndrome in contrast to broken heart because ICG/parasympathetic network degeneration could not be detected in classic broken heart syndrome. It was noted that cardiac ganglion degeneration is more prominent in animals' severe degenerated neuron density of nodose ganglia. We concluded that the cardiac ganglia network knitted with vagal-sympathetic-somatosensitive fibers has an important in heart function following SAH. The neurodegeneration of the cardiac may occur in SAH, and cause sudden death.Graphical abstract[Formula: see text].

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral autoregulation is impaired early on after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). The study objective was to explore the pressure reactivity index (PRx) and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) in the earliest phase after aneurysm rupture and to address the question of whether an optimal CPP (CPPopt)-targeted management is associated with less severe early brain injury (EBI). METHODS Patients with aSAH admitted between 2012 and 2020 were retrospectively included in this observational cohort study. The PRx was calculated as a correlation coefficient between intracranial pressure and mean arterial pressure. By plotting the PRx versus CPP, CPP correlating the lowest PRx value was identified as CPPopt. EBI was assessed by applying the Subarachnoid Hemorrhage Early Brain Edema Score (SEBES) on day 3 after ictus. An SEBES ≥ 3 was considered severe EBI. RESULTS In 90 of 324 consecutive patients with aSAH, intracranial pressure monitoring was performed ≥ 7 days, allowing for PRx calculation and CPPopt determination. Severe EBI was associated with larger mean deviation of CPP from CPPopt 72 h after ictus (r = 0.22, p = 0.03). Progressive edema requiring decompressive hemicraniectomy was associated with larger deviation of CPP from CPPopt on day 2 (r = 0.23, p = 0.02). The higher the difference of CPP from CPPopt on day 3 the higher the mortality rate (r = 0.31, p = 0.04). CONCLUSIONS Patients with CPP near to the calculated CPPopt in the early phase after aSAH experienced less severe EBI, less frequently received decompressive hemicraniectomy, and exhibited a lower mortality rate. A prospective evaluation of CPPopt-guided management starting in the first days after ictus is needed to confirm the clinical validity of this concept.

Abstract
Despite improvements in survival after illnesses requiring extracorporeal life support, cerebral injury continues to hinder successful outcomes. Cerebral autoregulation (CA) is an innate protective mechanism that maintains constant cerebral blood flow in the face of varying systemic blood pressure. However, it is impaired in certain disease states and, potentially, following initiation of extracorporeal circulatory support. In this review, we first discuss patient-related factors pertaining to venovenous and venoarterial extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (ECMO) and their potential role in CA impairment. Next, we examine factors intrinsic to ECMO that may affect CA, such as cannulation, changes in pulsatility, the inflammatory and adaptive immune response, intracranial hemorrhage, and ischemic stroke, in addition to ECMO management factors, such as oxygenation, ventilation, flow rates, and blood pressure management. We highlight potential mechanisms that lead to disruption of CA in both pediatric and adult populations, the challenges of measuring CA in these patients, and potential associations with neurological outcome. Altogether, we discuss individualized CA monitoring as a potential target for improving neurological outcomes in extracorporeal life support.

Abstract
Preservation of optimal cerebral perfusion is a crucial part of the acute management after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). A few studies indicated possible benefits of maintaining a cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) near the calculated optimal CPP (CPPopt), representing an individually optimal condition at which cerebral autoregulation functions at its best. This retrospective observational monocenter study was conducted to investigate, whether "suboptimal" perfusion with actual CPP deviating from CPPopt correlates with perfusion deficits detected by CT-perfusion (CTP). A consecutive cohort of aSAH-patients was reviewed and patients with available parameters for CPPopt-calculation, who simultaneously received CTP, were analyzed. By plotting the pressure reactivity index (PRx) versus CPP, CPP correlating the lowest PRx value was identified as CPPopt. Perfusion deficits on CTP were documented. In 86 out of 324 patients, the inclusion criteria were met. Perfusion deficits were detected in 47% (40/86) of patients. In 43% of patients, CPP was lower than CPPopt, which correlated with detected perfusion deficits (r = 0.23, p = 0.03). Perfusion deficits were found in 62% of patients with CPPCPPopt (OR 3, p = 0.01). These findings support the hypothesis, that a deviation of CPP from CPPopt is an indicator of suboptimal cerebral perfusion.

Abstract
Background: Cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) is an important target in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), but it does not take into account autoregulatory disturbances. The pressure reactivity index (PRx) and the CPP with the optimal PRx (CPPopt) are new variables that may capture these pathomechanisms. In this study, we investigated the effect on the outcome of certain combinations of CPP or ΔCPPopt (actual CPP-CPPopt) with the concurrent autoregulatory status (PRx) after aSAH. Methods: This observational study included 432 aSAH patients, treated in the neurointensive care unit, at Uppsala University Hospital, Sweden. Functional outcome (GOS-E) was assessed 1-year postictus. Heatmaps of the percentage of good monitoring time (%GMT) of PRx/CPP and PRx/ΔCPPopt combinations in relation to GOS-E were created to visualize the association between these variables and outcome. Results: In the heatmap of the %GMT of PRx/CPP, the combination of lower CPP with higher PRx values was more strongly associated with lower GOS-E. The tolerance for lower CPP values increased with lower PRx values until a threshold of -0.50. However, for decreasing PRx below -0.50, there was a gradual reduction in the tolerance for lower CPP. In the heatmap of the %GMT of PRx/ΔCPPopt, the combination of negative ΔCPPopt with higher PRx values was strongly associated with lower GOS-E. In particular, negative ΔCPPopt together with PRx above +0.50 correlated with worse outcomes. In addition, there was a transition toward an unfavorable outcome when PRx went below -0.50, particularly if ΔCPPopt was negative. Conclusions: The PRx levels influenced the association between CPP/ΔCPPopt and outcome. Thus, this variable could be used to individualize a safe CPP-/ΔCPPopt-range.

Dinh DD, Wan H, Lidington D, Bolz SS. Female mice display sex-specific differences in cerebrovascular function and subarachnoid haemorrhage-induced injury. EBioMedicine 2024; 102:105058. [PMID: 38490104 PMCID: PMC10955634 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2024.105058] [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: 03/22/2023] [Revised: 02/06/2024] [Accepted: 02/29/2024] [Indexed: 03/17/2024] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND In male mice, a circadian rhythm in myogenic reactivity influences the extent of brain injury following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). We hypothesized that female mice have a different cerebrovascular phenotype and consequently, a distinct SAH-induced injury phenotype. METHODS SAH was modelled by pre-chiasmatic blood injection. Olfactory cerebral resistance arteries were functionally assessed by pressure myography; these functional assessments were related to brain histology and neurobehavioral assessments. Cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) expression was assessed by PCR and Western blot. We compared non-ovariectomized and ovariectomized mice. FINDINGS Cerebrovascular myogenic reactivity is not rhythmic in females and no diurnal differences in SAH-induced injury are observed; ovariectomy does not unmask a rhythmic phenotype for any endpoint. CFTR expression is rhythmic, with similar expression levels compared to male mice. CFTR inhibition studies, however, indicate that CFTR activity is lower in female arteries. Pharmacologically increasing CFTR expression in vivo (3 mg/kg lumacaftor for 2 days) reduces myogenic tone at Zeitgeber time 11, but not Zeitgeber time 23. Myogenic tone is not markedly augmented following SAH in female mice and lumacaftor loses its ability to reduce myogenic tone; nevertheless, lumacaftor confers at least some injury benefit in females with SAH. INTERPRETATION Female mice possess a distinct cerebrovascular phenotype compared to males, putatively due to functional differences in CFTR regulation. This sex difference eliminates the CFTR-dependent cerebrovascular effects of SAH and may alter the therapeutic efficacy of lumacaftor compared to males.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral hypoxia is a frequent cause of secondary brain damage in patients with acute brain injury. Although hypercapnia can increase intracranial pressure, it may have beneficial effects on tissue oxygenation. We aimed to assess the effects of hypercapnia on brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO2). METHODS This single-center retrospective study (November 2014 to June 2022) included all patients admitted to the intensive care unit after acute brain injury who required multimodal monitoring, including PbtO2 monitoring, and who underwent induced moderate hypoventilation and hypercapnia according to the decision of the treating physician. Patients with imminent brain death were excluded. Responders to hypercapnia were defined as those with an increase of at least 20% in PbtO2 values when compared to their baseline levels. RESULTS On a total of 163 eligible patients, we identified 23 (14%) patients who underwent moderate hypoventilation (arterial partial pressure of carbon dioxide [PaCO2] from 44 [42-45] to 50 [49-53] mm Hg; p < 0.001) during the study period at a median of 6 (4-10) days following intensive care unit admission; six patients had traumatic brain injury, and 17 had subarachnoid hemorrhage. A significant overall increase in median PbtO2 values from baseline (21 [19-26] to 24 [22-26] mm Hg; p = 0.02) was observed. Eight (35%) patients were considered as responders, with a median increase of 7 (from 4 to 11) mm Hg of PbtO2, whereas nonresponders showed no changes (from - 1 to 2 mm Hg of PbtO2). Because of the small sample size, no variable independently associated with PbtO2 response was identified. No correlation between changes in PaCO2 and in PbtO2 was observed. CONCLUSIONS In this study, a heterogeneous response of PbtO2 to induced hypercapnia was observed but without any deleterious elevations of intracranial pressure.

Abstract
Stroke has long been a major threat to human health worldwide. Hemorrhagic stroke, including intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage, exhibits a high incidence rate and a high mortality and disability rate, imposing a substantial burden on both public health and the economy and society. In recent years, the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM) family has garnered extensive attention in various pathological conditions, including hemorrhagic stroke. This review comprehensively summarizes the structure and function of TREM1/2, as well as their roles and potential mechanisms in hemorrhagic stroke, with the aim of providing guidance for the development of targeted therapeutic strategies in the future.

Abstract
The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is located at the interface between the vascular system and the brain parenchyma, and is responsible for communication with systemic circulation and peripheral tissues. During life, the BBB can be subjected to a wide range of perturbations or stresses that may be endogenous or exogenous, pathological or therapeutic, or intended or unintended. The risk factors for many diseases of the brain are multifactorial and involve perturbations that may occur simultaneously (e.g., two-hit model for Alzheimer's disease) and result in different outcomes. Therefore, it is important to understand the influence of individual perturbations on BBB function in isolation. Here we review the effects of eight perturbations: mechanical forces, temperature, electromagnetic radiation, hypoxia, endogenous factors, exogenous factors, chemical factors, and pathogens. While some perturbations may result in acute or chronic BBB disruption, many are also exploited for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. The resultant outcome on BBB function depends on the dose (or magnitude) and duration of the perturbation. Homeostasis may be restored by self-repair, for example, via processes such as proliferation of affected cells or angiogenesis to create new vasculature. Transient or sustained BBB dysfunction may result in acute or pathological symptoms, for example, microhemorrhages or hypoperfusion. In more extreme cases, perturbations may lead to cytotoxicity and cell death, for example, through exposure to cytotoxic plaques.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Anesthetic goals in patients undergoing clipping of cerebral aneurysm include maintenance of cerebral blood flow, oxygenation, and metabolism to avoid cerebral ischemia and maintenance of hemodynamic stability. We intend to study the influence of anesthetic agents on the outcome of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). MATERIALS AND METHODS This is a prospective, randomized, parallel, single-center pilot trial approved by the Institutional Ethics Committee and is prospectively registered with the Clinical Trial Registry of India. Patients with aneurysmal SAH (aSAH) admitted to our institution for surgical clipping, fulfilling the trial inclusion criteria, will be randomized in a 1:1 allocation ratio utilizing a computerized random allocation sequence to receive either total intravenous anesthesia (n = 25) or inhalational anesthesia (n = 25). Our primary objective is to study the effects of these anesthetic techniques on cerebral oxygenation and metabolism in patients with aSAH. Our secondary objective is to evaluate the impact of these anesthetic techniques on the incidence of delayed cerebral ischemia and long-term patient outcomes in patients with aSAH. The Modified Rankin Score and Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) at discharge and 3 months following hospital discharge will be evaluated. An observer blinded to the study intervention will assess the outcome measures. DISCUSSION This study will provide more insight as to which is the ideal anesthetic agent that offers a better neurophysiological profile regarding intraoperative cerebral oxygenation and metabolism, thereby contributing to better postoperative outcomes in aSAH patients.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a type of hemorrhagic stroke resulting from the rupture of an arterial vessel within the brain. Unlike other stroke types, SAH affects both young adults (mid-40s) and the geriatric population. Patients with SAH often experience significant neurological deficits, leading to a substantial societal burden in terms of lost potential years of life. This review provides a comprehensive overview of SAH, examining its development across different stages (early, intermediate, and late) and highlighting the pathophysiological and pathohistological processes specific to each phase. The clinical management of SAH is also explored, focusing on tailored treatments and interventions to address the unique pathological changes that occur during each stage. Additionally, the paper reviews current treatment modalities and pharmacological interventions based on the evolving guidelines provided by the American Heart Association (AHA). Recent advances in our understanding of SAH will facilitate clinicians' improved management of SAH to reduce the incidence of delayed cerebral ischemia in patients.

Abstract
Hydrocephalus is a clinical disorder caused by excessive cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) buildup in the ventricles of the brain, often requiring permanent CSF diversion via an implanted shunt system. Such shunts are prone to failure over time; an ambulatory intracranial pressure (ICP) monitoring device may assist in the detection of shunt failure without an invasive diagnostic workup. Additionally, high resolution, noninvasive intracranial pressure monitoring will help in the study of diseases such as normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) and idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH). We propose an implantable, continuous, rechargeable ICP monitoring device that communicates via Bluetooth with mobile applications. The design requirements were met at the lower ICP ranges; the obtained error fell within the idealized ±2 mmHg margin when obtaining pressure values at or below 20 mmHg. The error was slightly above the specified range at higher ICPs (±10% from 20-100 mmHg). The system successfully simulates occlusions and disconnections of the proximal and distal catheters, valve failure, and simulation of A and B ICP waves. The mobile application accurately detects the ICP fluctuations that occur in these physiologic states. The presented macro-scale prototype is an ex-vivo model of an implantable, rechargeable ICP monitoring system that has the potential to measure clinically relevant ICPs and wirelessly provide accessible and continuous data to aid in the workup of shunt failure.

Abstract
Patients undergoing complex intracranial neurovascular procedures continue to have a high mortality rate. Individualised goal-directed cerebral resuscitation employing multimodality neuromonitoring may impact these patients' treatment and prognosis. Advanced monitoring methods aid in the early identification of secondary brain insults and serve as endpoints for goal-directed therapy in the perioperative period. Unfortunately, there is a paucity of literature exploring the impact of multimodality monitoring and its outcome in these patients. We aim to present this case series wherein the patients had a favourable outcome post-intracranial complex bypass procedure, owing to goal-directed management guided by multimodality monitoring in the perioperative period.

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
BACKGROUND An increase in sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) reportedly attenuates early brain injury, delayed cerebral ischemia, and short-term neurologic deficits in rodent models of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). This study investigates the effect of resveratrol, a SIRT1 activator, on long-term functional recovery in a clinically relevant rat model of SAH. METHODS Thirty male Wistar rats were subjected to fresh arterial blood injection into the prechiasmatic space and randomized to receive 7 days of intraperitoneal resveratrol (20 mg/kg) or vehicle injections. Body weight and rotarod performance were measured on days 0, 3, 7, and 34 post SAH. The neurologic score was assessed 7 and 34 days post SAH. Morris water maze performance was evaluated 29-33 days post SAH. Brain SIRT1 activity and CA1 neuronal survival were also assessed. RESULTS Blood pressure rapidly increased in all SAH rats, and no between-group differences in blood pressure, blood gases, or glucose were detected. SAH induced weight loss during the first 7 days, which gradually recovered in both groups. Neurologic score and rotarod performance were significantly improved after resveratrol treatment at 34 days post SAH (p = 0.01 and 0.04, respectively). Latency to find the Morris water maze hidden platform was shortened (p = 0.02). In the resveratrol group, more CA1 neurons survived following SAH (p = 0.1). An increase in brain SIRT1 activity was confirmed in the resveratrol group (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Treatment with resveratrol for 1 week significantly improved the neurologic score, rotarod performance, and latency to find the Morris water maze hidden platform 34 days post SAH. These findings indicate that SIRT1 activation warrants further investigation as a mechanistic target for SAH therapy.

Abstract
This observational study examined morphological changes in superficial cerebral arteries and veins, which were correlated with increased intracranial pressure (ICP)-dependent and -independent hypoperfusion in hyperacute phase after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). The prechiasmatic injection model was used, and 32 male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into the sham-operated, saline-injected (V group, ICP increase), and arterial blood-injected (SAH group, subarachnoid blood and plus increase) groups. Morphological changes in cortical arteries and veins were observed through the cranial window with a microscope before and up to 10 min after the injection. At 24 h, the stenotic and obstructive cortical arteries and veins were counted. After 6 min, 60% of rats in the V group showed vasodilatation, whereas all rats in the SAH group demonstrated vasodilation and vasoconstriction (arterial instability) within 10 min. Similar acute venous congestive changes were observed within 10 min in the V and SAH groups. At 24 h, stenotic and obstructive arteries and veins were observed in the SAH group. Neurological deteriorations were observed at 1 h in the V and SAH groups, and at 23 h in the SAH group. The sham-operated group showed no evident vascular changes and neurological deterioration. The same phenomena, including arterial changes after 6 min and immediate venous changes in the V and SAH groups, may have resulted from ICP increase, whereas subarachnoid blood-related factors produced arterial instability within 5 min after blood injection. Subarachnoid blood plays a significant role in hyperacute SAH pathophysiology in addition to ICP increase.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Targeting a cerebral perfusion pressure optimal for cerebral autoregulation (CPPopt) has been gaining more attention to prevent secondary damage after acute neurological injury. Brain tissue oxygenation (PbtO2) can identify insufficient cerebral blood flow and secondary brain injury. Defining the relationship between CPPopt and PbtO2 after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage may result in (1) mechanistic insights into whether and how CPPopt-based strategies might be beneficial and (2) establishing support for the use of PbtO2 as an adjunctive monitor for adequate or optimal local perfusion. METHODS We performed a retrospective analysis of a prospectively collected 2-center dataset of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage with or without later diagnosis of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). CPPopt was calculated as the cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) value corresponding to the lowest pressure reactivity index (moving correlation coefficient of mean arterial and intracranial pressure). The relationship of (hourly) deltaCPP (CPP-CPPopt) and PbtO2 was investigated using natural spline regression analysis. Data after DCI diagnosis were excluded. Brain tissue hypoxia was defined as PbtO2 <20 mmHg. RESULTS One hundred thirty-one patients were included with a median of 44.0 (interquartile range, 20.8-78.3) hourly CPPopt/PbtO2 datapoints. The regression plot revealed a nonlinear relationship between PbtO2 and deltaCPP (P<0.001) with PbtO2 decrease with deltaCPP <0 mmHg and stable PbtO2 with deltaCPP ≥0mmHg, although there was substantial individual variation. Brain tissue hypoxia (34.6% of all measurements) was more frequent with deltaCPP <0 mmHg. These dynamics were similar in patients with or without DCI. CONCLUSIONS We found a nonlinear relationship between PbtO2 and deviation of patients' CPP from CPPopt in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients in the pre-DCI period. CPP values below calculated CPPopt were associated with lower PbtO2. Nevertheless, the nature of PbtO2 measurements is complex, and the variability is high. Combined multimodality monitoring with CPP/CPPopt and PbtO2 should be recommended to redefine individual pressure targets (CPP/CPPopt) and retain the option to detect local perfusion deficits during DCI (PbtO2), which cannot be fulfilled by both measurements interchangeably.

Hemorrhagic Cerebral Insults and Secondary Takotsubo Syndrome: Findings in a Novel In Vitro Model Using Human Blood Samples. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231911557.

Abstract
Intracranial hemorrhage results in devastating forms of cerebral damage. Frequently, these results also present with cardiac dysfunction ranging from ECG changes to Takotsubo syndrome (TTS). This suggests that intracranial bleeding due to subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) disrupts the neuro-cardiac axis leading to neurogenic stress cardiomyopathy (NSC) of different degrees. Following this notion, SAH and secondary TTS could be directly linked, thus contributing to poor outcomes. We set out to test if blood circulation is the driver of the brain-heart axis by investigating serum samples of TTS patients. We present a novel in vitro model combining SAH and secondary TTS to mimic the effects of blood or serum, respectively, on blood-brain barrier (BBB) integrity using in vitro monolayers of an established murine model. We consistently demonstrated decreased monolayer integrity and confirmed reduced Claudin-5 and Occludin levels by RT-qPCR and Western blot and morphological reorganization of actin filaments in endothelial cells. Both tight junction proteins show a time-dependent reduction. Our findings highlight a faster and more prominent disintegration of BBB in the presence of TTS and support the importance of the bloodstream as a causal link between intracerebral bleeding and cardiac dysfunction. This may represent potential targets for future therapeutic inventions in SAH and TTS.

Abstract
Chronic hypertension is one of the key modifiable risk factors for acute ischemic stroke, also contributing to determine greater neurological deficits and worse functional outcome when an acute cerebrovascular event would occur. A tight relationship exists between cerebrovascular autoregulation, neuronal activity and brain bioenergetics. In chronic hypertension, progressive adaptations of these processes occur as an attempt to cope with the demanding necessity of brain functions, creating a new steady-state homeostatic condition. However, these adaptive modifications are insufficient to grant an adequate response to possible pathological perturbations of the established fragile hemodynamic and metabolic homeostasis. In this narrative review, we will discuss the main mechanisms by which alterations in brain bioenergetics and mitochondrial function in chronic hypertension could lead to increased risk of acute ischemic stroke, stressing the interconnections between hemodynamic factors (i.e. cerebral autoregulation and neurovascular coupling) and metabolic processes. Both experimental and clinical pieces of evidence will be discussed. Moreover, the potential role of mitochondrial dysfunction in determining, or at least sustaining, the pathogenesis and progression of chronic neurogenic hypertension will be considered. In the perspective of novel therapeutic strategies aiming at improving brain bioenergetics, we propose some determinant factors to consider in future studies focused on the cause-effect relationships between chronic hypertension and brain bioenergetic abnormalities (and vice versa), so to help translational research in this so-far unfilled gap.

Hemodynamics and Tissue Optical Properties in Bimodal Infarctions Induced by Middle Cerebral Artery Occlusion. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms231810318. [PMID: 36142225 PMCID: PMC9499323 DOI: 10.3390/ijms231810318] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/24/2022] [Revised: 09/02/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Various infarct sizes induced by middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) generate inconsistent outcomes for stroke preclinical study. Monitoring cerebral hemodynamics may help to verify the outcome of MCAO. The aim of this study was to investigate the changes in brain tissue optical properties by frequency-domain near-infrared spectroscopy (FD-NIRS), and establish the relationship between cerebral hemodynamics and infarct variation in MCAO model. The rats were undergone transient MCAO using intraluminal filament. The optical properties and hemodynamics were measured by placing the FD-NIRS probes on the scalp of the head before, during, and at various time-courses after MCAO. Bimodal infarction severities were observed after the same 90-min MCAO condition. Significant decreases in concentrations of oxygenated hemoglobin ([HbO]) and total hemoglobin ([HbT]), tissue oxygenation saturation (StO2), absorption coefficient (μa) at 830 nm, and reduced scattering coefficient (μs’) at both 690 and 830 nm were detected during the occlusion in the severe infarction but not the mild one. Of note, the significant increases in [HbO], [HbT], StO2, and μa at both 690 and 830 nm were found on day 3; and increases in μs’ at both 690 and 830 nm were found on day 2 and day 3 after MCAO, respectively. The interhemispheric correlation coefficient (IHCC) was computed from low-frequency hemodynamic oscillation of both hemispheres. Lower IHCCs standing for interhemispheric desynchronizations were found in both mild and severe infarction during occlusion, and only in severe infarction after reperfusion. Our finding supports that sequential FD-NIRS parameters may associated with the severity of the infarction in MCAO model, and the consequent pathologies such as vascular dysfunction and brain edema. Further study is required to validate the potential use of FD-NIRS as a monitor for MCAO verification.

Abstract
ObjectivesSerum neurofilament light chain (NfL) is a biomarker for neuroaxonal damage, and S100B is a blood marker for cerebral damage. In the present study, we investigated the relationship between serum NfL and S100B levels, severity, and outcomes in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).MethodsWe prospectively recruited aSAH patients and healthy controls between January 2016 and January 2021. Clinical results included mortality and poor outcomes (modified Rankin scale score of 3-6) after 6 months. The ultrasensitive Simoa technique was used to evaluate NfL levels in the blood, and ELISA was used to detect S100B.ResultsA total of 91 patients and 25 healthy controls were included in the study, with a death rate of 15.4%. The group of aSAH patients had significantly higher serum levels of NfL and S100B (P < 0.01). Furthermore, the levels of NfL and S100B increased when the Hunt-Hess, World Federation of Neurological Surgeons (WFNS), and Fisher grades increased (P < 0.01). Serum NfL and S100B levels were linked to poor prognoses and low survival rates. The blood levels of NfL and S100B were found to be an independent predictor related to 6-month mortality in multivariable analysis. Additionally, the areas under the curves for NfL and S100B levels in serum were 0.959 and 0.912, respectively; the clinical diagnostic critical thresholds were 14.275 and 26.54 pg/ml, respectively; sensitivities were 0.947 and 0.921, and specificities were 0.849 and 0.811.ConclusionsThe NfL and S100B values for aSAH patients within 12 days of admission were considerably associated with Hunt-Hess grade, WFNS, and Fisher grade. The higher the grade, the higher the NfL and S100B value, and the poorer the prognosis. Serum NfL and S100B values could be feasible biomarkers to predict the clinical prognosis of patients with aSAH.

Abstract
Sinusoidal squat-stand maneuvers (SSM) without resistance have been shown to produce ~30-50 mmHg swings in mean arterial pressure which are largely buffered in the brain via dynamic cerebral autoregulation (dCA). This study aimed to further elucidate how this regulatory mechanism is affected during SSM with added resistance (~20% bodyweight). Twenty-five participants (sex/gender: 13 females/12 males) completed two bouts of 5-min SSM for both bodyweight and resistance conditions (10% bodyweight in each arm) at frequencies of 0.05 Hz (20-s squat/stand cycles) and 0.10 Hz (10-s squat/stand cycles). Middle and posterior cerebral artery (MCA/PCA) cerebral blood velocities were indexed with transcranial Doppler ultrasound. Beat-to-beat blood pressure (BP) was quantified via finger photoplesmography. Transfer function analysis was employed to quantify dCA in both cerebral arteries across the cardiac cycle (diastole, mean, and systole). Two-by-two Analysis of Variance with generalized eta squared effect sizes were utilized to determine differences between resistance vs. bodyweight squats and between sexes/genders. Absolute mean and diastolic BP were elevated during the resistance squats (p < 0.001); however, only the BP point-estimate power spectrum densities were augmented at 0.10 Hz (p < 0.048). No differences were noted for phase and gain metrics between bodyweight and resistance SSM (p > 0.067); however, females displayed attenuated systolic regulation (p < 0.003). Despite augmented systemic BP during resistance SSM, the brain was effective at buffering the additional stress to mitigate overperfusion/pressure. Females displayed less dCA regulation within the systolic aspect of the cardiac cycle, which may be associated with physiological underpinnings related to various clinical conditions/presentations.

Abstract
The process of cerebral vessels regulating constant cerebral blood flow over a wide range of systemic arterial pressures is termed cerebral autoregulation (CA). Static and dynamic autoregulation are two types of CA measurement techniques, with the main difference between these measures relating to the time scale used. Static autoregulation looks at the long-term change in blood pressures, while dynamic autoregulation looks at the immediate change. Techniques that provide regularly updating measures are referred to as continuous, whereas intermittent techniques take a single at point in time. However, a technique being continuous or intermittent is not implied by if the technique measures autoregulation statically or dynamically. This narrative review outlines technical aspects of non-invasive and minimally-invasive modalities along with providing details on the non-invasive and minimally-invasive measurement techniques used for CA assessment. These non-invasive techniques include neuroimaging methods, transcranial Doppler, and near-infrared spectroscopy while the minimally-invasive techniques include positron emission tomography along with magnetic resonance imaging and radiography methods. Further, the advantages and limitations are discussed along with how these methods are used to assess CA. At the end, the clinical considerations regarding these various techniques are highlighted.

Cerebral Blood Flow and Oxygen Delivery in Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: Relation to Neurointensive Care Targets. Neurocrit Care 2022; 37:281-292. [PMID: 35449343 PMCID: PMC9283361 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-022-01496-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2022] [Accepted: 03/22/2022] [Indexed: 02/04/2023]
Abstract
Background The primary aim was to determine to what extent continuously monitored neurointensive care unit (neuro-ICU) targets predict cerebral blood flow (CBF) and delivery of oxygen (CDO2) after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The secondary aim was to determine whether CBF and CDO2 were associated with clinical outcome. Methods In this observational study, patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage treated at the neuro-ICU in Uppsala, Sweden, from 2012 to 2020 with at least one xenon-enhanced computed tomography (Xe-CT) obtained within the first 14 days post ictus were included. CBF was measured with the Xe-CT and CDO2 was calculated based on CBF and arterial oxygen content. Regional cerebral hypoperfusion was defined as CBF < 20 mL/100 g/min, and poor CDO2 was defined as CDO2 < 3.8 mL O2/100 g/min. Neuro-ICU variables including intracranial pressure (ICP), pressure reactivity index, cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP), optimal CPP, and body temperature were assessed in association with the Xe-CT. The acute phase was divided into early phase (day 1–3) and vasospasm phase (day 4–14). Results Of 148 patients, 27 had underwent a Xe-CT only in the early phase, 74 only in the vasospasm phase, and 47 patients in both phases. The patients exhibited cerebral hypoperfusion and poor CDO2 for medians of 15% and 30%, respectively, of the cortical brain areas in each patient. In multiple regressions, higher body temperature was associated with higher CBF and CDO2 in the early phase. In a similar regression for the vasospasm phase, younger age and longer pulse transit time (lower peripheral resistance) correlated with higher CBF and CDO2, whereas lower hematocrit only correlated with higher CBF but not with CDO2. ICP, CPP, and pressure reactivity index exhibited no independent association with CBF and CDO2. R2 of these regressions were below 0.3. Lower CBF and CDO2 in the early phase correlated with poor outcome, but this only held true for CDO2 in multiple regressions. Conclusions Systemic and cerebral physiological variables exhibited a modest association with CBF and CDO2. Still, cerebral hypoperfusion and low CDO2 were common and low CDO2 was associated with poor outcome. Xe-CT imaging could be useful to help detect secondary brain injury not evident by high ICP and low CPP.

Methods In this retrospective study, 75 aSAH patients treated in the neurointensive care unit, Uppsala, Sweden, 2008–2018, with ICP and cerebral microdialysis (MD) monitoring were included. The first 10 days were divided into early (day 1–3), early vasospasm (day 4–6.5), and late vasospasm phase (day 6.5–10). The monitoring time (%) of ICP insults (> 20 mmHg and > 25 mmHg), CPP insults (< 60 mmHg, < 70 mmHg, < 80 mmHg, and < 90 mmHg), and autoregulatory CPP optimum (CPPopt) insults (∆CPPopt = CPP-CPPopt < − 10 mmHg, ∆CPPopt > 10 mmHg, and within the optimal interval ∆CPPopt ± 10 mmHg) were calculated in each phase. Results Higher percent of ICP above the 20 mmHg and 25 mmHg thresholds correlated with lower MD-glucose and increased MD-lactate-pyruvate ratio (LPR), particularly in the vasospasm phases. Higher percentage of CPP below all four thresholds (60/70/80//90 mmHg) also correlated with a MD pattern of poor cerebral substrate supply (MD-LPR > 40 and MD-pyruvate < 120 µM) in the vasospasm phase and higher burden of CPP below 60 mmHg was independently associated with higher MD-LPR in the late vasospasm phase. Higher percentage of CPP deviation from CPPopt did not correlate with worse cerebral energy metabolism. Higher burden of CPP-insults below all fixed thresholds in both vasospasm phases were associated with worse clinical outcome. The percentage of ICP-insults and CPP close to CPPopt were not associated with clinical outcome. Conclusions Keeping ICP below 20 mmHg and CPP at least above 60 mmHg may improve cerebral energy metabolism and clinical outcome.

Abstract
Blood pressure (BP) elevations often complicate the management of intracerebral hemorrhage and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage, the most serious forms of acute stroke. Despite consensus on potential benefits of BP lowering in the acute phase of intracerebral hemorrhage, controversies persist over the timing, mechanisms, and approaches to treatment. BP control is even more complex for subarachnoid hemorrhage, where there are rationales for both BP lowering and elevation in reducing the risks of rebleeding and delayed cerebral ischemia, respectively. Efforts to disentangle the evidence has involved detailed exploration of individual patient data from clinical trials through meta-analysis to determine strength and direction of BP change in relation to key outcomes in intracerebral hemorrhage, and which likely also apply to subarachnoid hemorrhage. A wealth of hemodynamic data provides insights into pathophysiological interrelationships of BP and cerebral blood flow. This focused update provides an overview of current evidence, knowledge gaps, and emerging concepts on systemic hemodynamics, cerebral autoregulation and perfusion, to facilitate clinical practice recommendations and future research.

Initiating Mobilization Is Not Associated with Symptomatic Cerebral Vasospasm in Patients with Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Retrospective Multicenter Case-control Study. Phys Ther Res 2022; 25:134-142. [PMID: 36819919 PMCID: PMC9910352 DOI: 10.1298/ptr.e10205] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 09/26/2022] [Indexed: 11/09/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The study aim was to investigate the association between initiating mobilization within 7 days after onset and symptomatic cerebral vasospasm (SCV) in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). METHODS This was a retrospective multicenter case-control study in Japan. Patients with a diagnosis of aSAH who underwent physical therapy with/without occupational therapy were included and categorized into 2 groups according to the presence or absence of SCV. Initiating mobilization was defined as sitting on the bed edge (at least once, with/without assist, regardless of duration) within 7 days after aSAH onset. Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was performed to evaluate the association between initiating mobilization within 7 days after onset and SCV. RESULTS The analysis included 510 patients. Among all included patients, 57 (11.2%) patients had SCV. In the univariate Cox proportional hazards regression analysis, initiating of mobilization was not associated with SCV (hazard ratio [HR] = 0.78; 95% confidence interval [CI] = 0.45-1.32). In the multivariate analysis, only the modified Fisher scale was significantly associated with SCV (HR = 26.23; 95% CI = 1.21-571.0). CONCLUSION Initiating mobilization within 7 days after aSAH onset was not associated with SCV in patients with aSAH.
