Could Phosphorous MR Spectroscopy Help Predict the Severity of Vasospasm? A Pilot Study. Diagnostics (Basel) 2024; 14:841. [PMID: 38667486 PMCID: PMC11049300 DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics14080841] [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: 02/22/2024] [Revised: 04/02/2024] [Accepted: 04/07/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
One of the main causes of the dismal prognosis in patients who survive the initial bleeding after aneurysmal subarachnoidal hemorrhage is the delayed cerebral ischaemia caused by vasospasm. Studies suggest that cerebral magnesium and pH may potentially play a role in the pathophysiology of this adverse event. Using phosphorous magnetic resonance spectrocopy (31P-MRS), we calculated the cerebral magnesium (Mg) and pH levels in 13 patients who suffered from aSAH. The values between the group that developed clinically significant vasospasm (n = 7) and the group that did not (n = 6) were compared. The results of this study show significantly lower cerebral Mg levels (p = 0.019) and higher pH levels (p < 0.001) in the cumulative group (all brain voxels together) in patients who developed clinically significant vasospasm. Further clinical studies on a larger group of carefully selected patients are needed in order to predict clinically significant vasospasm.

Effects of Various Therapeutic Agents on Vasospasm and Functional Outcome After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage-Results of a Network Meta-Analysis. World Neurosurg 2021; 155:41-53. [PMID: 34339892 DOI: 10.1016/j.wneu.2021.07.104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/13/2021] [Revised: 07/21/2021] [Accepted: 07/22/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Vasospasm and delayed ischemic neurologic deficits are the leading causes of morbidity and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Several therapeutic agents have been assessed in randomized controlled trials for their efficacy in reducing the incidence of vasospasm and improving functional outcome. The aim of this network meta-analysis is to compare all these therapeutic agents for their effect on functional outcome and other parameters after aSAH. METHODS A comprehensive search of different databases was performed to retrieve randomized controlled trials describing the effect of various therapeutic approaches on functional outcome and other parameters after aSAH. RESULTS Ninety-two articles were selected for full text review and 57 articles were selected for the final analysis. Nicardipine prolonged-release implants were found to be the best treatment in terms of favorable outcome (odds ratio [OR], 8.55; 95% credible interval [CrI], 1.63-56.71), decreasing mortality (OR, 0.08; 95% CrI, 0-0.82), and preventing angiographic vasospasm (OR, 0.018; 95% CrI, 0.00057-0.16). Cilostazol was found to be the second-best treatment in improving favorable outcomes (OR, 3.58; 95% CrI, 1.97-6.57) and decreasing mortality (OR, 0.41; 95% CrI, 0.12-1.15). Fasudil (OR, 0.16; 95% CrI, 0.03-0.78) was found to be the best treatment in decreasing increased vessel velocity and enoxaparin (OR, 0.25; 95% CrI, 0.057-1.0) in preventing delayed ischemic neurologic deficits. CONCLUSIONS Our analysis showed that nicardipine prolonged-release implants and cilostazol were associated with the best chance of improving favorable outcome and mortality in patients with aSAH. However, larger multicentric studies from other parts of the world are required to confirm these findings.

Effect of statins on functional outcome and mortality following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage - Results of a meta-analysis, metaregression and trial sequential analysis. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2021; 207:106787. [PMID: 34225002 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2021.106787] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/25/2021] [Revised: 06/22/2021] [Accepted: 06/23/2021] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cerebral vasospasm (CVS) and delayed ischemic neurological deficits (DIND) are a common cause of morbidity following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Statins have been shown to decrease CVS. The objective of this article was to ascertain the effect of statins on functional outcome and mortality following aneurysmal SAH by performing meta-analysis. METHODS A comprehensive search of different databases was performed to retrieve randomized controlled trials. Meta-analysis with subgroup analysis and metaregression was done. Trial sequential analysis (TSA) was performed to determine if the cumulative sample size was appropriately powered for the obtained pooled effect values and to avoid random error. RESULTS Twelve articles were selected for meta-analysis. Pooled OR for the change in favorable outcome, mortality, CVS, DIND and elevated transaminases was 1.07 (p = 0.55), 0.78 (p = 0.17), 0.58 (p = 0.0004), 0.54 (p = 0.0293) and 0.68 (p = 0.1774) respectively. Further, subgroup analysis and metaregression showed that the use of different statin or dose did not result in significant variation in results in the parameters studied. TSA showed that more trials and patients are required to reach to a definitive conclusion regarding any effect on statins on functional outcome and mortality as the current studies neither reached the level of confidence nor crossed the futility boundary. CONCLUSION Use of statins in patients with aneurysmal SAH resulted in marginal but non-significant favorable impact on functional outcome and mortality. TSA showed that more studies are required to get conclusive evidence in this regard.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Cerebral vasospasm is a common complication after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). Many drugs have been tried to mitigate cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia. Cilostazol, a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase 3, is a promising agent in preventing cerebral vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia after aSAH. The objective of this article was to ascertain the effect of cilostazol on cerebral vasospasm after aSAH by performing meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis. METHODS A systematic search of the literature was performed, and all the eligible randomized controlled trials were included in the meta-analysis and trial sequential analysis. RESULTS A total of 454 articles were identified using the search criteria. Six articles were selected for systematic review and the 4 randomized controlled trials were included in the meta-analysis. The pooled odds ratio for symptomatic vasospasm, new-onset infarct, and angiographic vasospasm was 0.35 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.21-0.59; P < 0.0001), 0.38 (95% CI, 0.21-0.66; P = 0.0007) and 0.49 (95% CI, 0.31-0.80; P = 0.004), respectively. The pooled risk ratio for unfavorable outcome was 0.52 (95% CI, 0.37-0.74; P = 0.0003). CONCLUSIONS Cilostazol decreases the prevalence of symptomatic vasospasm, new-onset infarct, and angiographic vasospasm when administered after aSAH. Trial sequential analysis increased the precision of our results because the defined thresholds of effect were met by the available studies. However, further studies involving patients from other geographic areas are required to confirm the generalization of the results.

Abstract
Neuroprotection or prevention of neuronal loss is a complicated molecular process that is mediated by various cellular pathways. Use of different pharmacological agents as neuroprotectants has been reported especially in the last decades. These neuroprotective agents act through inhibition of inflammatory processes and apoptosis, attenuation of oxidative stress and reduction of free radicals. Control of this injurious molecular process is essential to the reduction of neuronal injuries and is associated with improved functional outcomes and recovery of the patients admitted to the intensive care unit. This study reviews neuroprotective agents and their mechanisms of action against central nervous system damages.

Abstract
Magnesium (Mg) has been developed as a drug with various clinical uses. Mg is a key cation in physiological processes, and the homeostasis of this cation is crucial for the normal function of body organs. Magnesium sulfate (MgSO4) is a mineral pharmaceutical preparation of magnesium that is used as a neuroprotective agent. One rationale for the frequent use of MgSO4 in critical care is the high incidence of hypomagnesaemia in intensive care unit (ICU) patients. Correction of hypomagnesaemia along with the neuroprotective properties of MgSO4 has generated a wide application for MgSO4 in ICU.

Abstract
Background: The blood supply of the lower spinal cord is heavily dependent on the artery of Adamkiewicz. The goal of this study was to elucidate the effects of lumbar subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) on the lumbar 4 dorsal root ganglion (L4DRG) cells secondary to Adamkiewicz artery (AKA) vasospasm. Materials and Methods: This study was conducted on 20 rabbits, which were randomly divided into three groups: Spinal SAH (n = 8), serum saline (SS) (SS; n = 6) and control (n = 6) groups. Experimental spinal SAH was performed. After 20 days, volume values of AKA and neuron density of L4DRG were analyzed. Results: The mean alive neuron density of the L4DRG was 15420 ± 1240/mm3 and degenerated neuron density was 1045 ± 260/mm3 in the control group. Whereas, the density of living and degenerated neurons density were 12930 ± 1060/mm3 and 1365 ± 480/mm3 in serum saline (SS), 9845 ± 1028/mm3 and 4560 ± 1340/mm3 in the SAH group. The mean volume of imaginary AKAs was estimated as 1,250 ± 0,310 mm3 in the control group and 1,030 ± 0,240 mm3 in the SF group and 0,910 ± 0,170 mm3 in SAH group. Volume reduction of the AKAs and neuron density L4DRG were significantly different between the SAH and other two groups (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Decreased volume of the lumen of the artery of Adamkiewicz was observed in animals with SAH compared with controls. Increased degeneration the L4 dorsal root ganglion in animals with SAH was also noted. Our findings will aid in the planning of future experimental studies and determining the clinical relevance on such studies.

Abstract
Delayed cerebral ischemia following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a cause of considerable morbidity and mortality. Magnesium sulfate has been proposed as a prophylactic intervention for angiographic vasospasm and to improve clinical outcomes. A systematic review was conducted to determine the evidence for the prophylactic use of magnesium sulfate in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Medline, Embase, Cochrane library, clinicaltrials.gov, and controlled-trials.com were searched with a comprehensive search strategy. 2,035 records were identified in the initial search and 1,574 remained after removal of duplicates. Randomized, parallel group, controlled trials of magnesium sulfate in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage were included. A total of ten studies were included. Review Manager and GRADE software were used to synthesize the results. The summary effect for Glasgow outcome scale and the modified Rankin scale is a risk ratio (RR) of 0.93 [95 % confidence interval (CI) 0.82-1.06]. The RR for mortality is 0.95 [95 % CI 0.76-1.17]. Delayed cerebral ischemia has a RR of 0.54 [95 % CI 0.38-0.75], which is the only outcome with a statistically significant summary effect measure favoring magnesium treatment. Delayed ischemic neurological deficit has a RR of 0.93 [95 % CI 0.62-1.39]. Transcranial doppler vasospasm has a RR of 0.72 [95 % CI 0.51-1.03]. Current evidence does not support the prophylactic use of magnesium sulfate in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

Abstract
CONTEXT Somato-sensitive innervation of bowels are maintained by lower segments of spinal cord and the blood supply of the lower spinal cord is heavily dependent on Adamkiewicz artery. Although bowel problems are sometimes seen in subarachnoid hemorrhage neither Adamkiewicz artery spasm nor spinal cord ischemia has not been elucidated as a cause of bowel dilatation so far. AIMS The goal of this study was to study the effects Adamkiewicz artery (AKA) vasospasm in lumbar subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) on bowel dilatation severity. SETTINGS AND DESIGN An experimental rabbit study. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was conducted on 25 rabbits, which were randomly divided into three groups: Spinal SAH (N = 13), serum saline (SS) (SS; N = 7) and control (N = 5) groups. Experimental spinal SAH was performed. After 21 days, volume values of descending parts of large bowels and degenerated neuron density of L5DRG were analyzed. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS USED Statistical analysis was performed using the PASW Statistics 18.0 for Windows (SPSS Inc., Chicago, Illinois). Two-tailed t-test and Mann-Whitney U-tests were used. The statistical significance was set at P < 0.05. RESULTS The mean volume of imaginary descending colons was estimated as 93 ± 12 cm(3) in the control group and 121 ± 26 cm(3) in the SS group and 176 ± 49 cm(3) in SAH group. Volume augmentations of the descending colons and degenerated neuron density L5DRG were significantly different between the SAH and other two groups (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION An inverse relationship between the living neuronal density of the L5DRG and the volume of imaginary descending colon values was occurred. Our findings will aid in the planning of future experimental studies and determining the clinical relevance on such studies.

Abstract
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is characterized by bleeding into the subarachnoid space, often caused by ruptured aneurysm. Aneurysmal rupture occurs in 700,000 individuals per year worldwide, with 40,000 cases taking place in the United States. Beyond the high mortality associated with SAH alone, morbidity and mortality are further increased with the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm, a pathologic constriction of blood vessels that can lead to delayed ischemic neurologic deficits (DIND). Treatment of cerebral vasospasm is a source of contention. One extensively studied therapy is Magnesium (Mg) as both a competitive antagonist of calcium at the N-methyl D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor, and a noncompetitive antagonist of both IP3 and voltage-gated calcium channels, leading to smooth muscle relaxation. In our literature review, several animal and human studies are summarized in addition to two Phase III trials assessing the use of intravenous Mg in the treatment of SAH (IMASH and MASH-2). Though many studies have shown promise for the use of Mg in SAH, there has been inconsistency in study design and outcomes. Furthermore, the results of the recently completed clinical trials have shown no significant benefit from using intravenous Mg as adjuvant therapy in the treatment of cerebral vasospasm.
