Introduction: Reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) is a potentially life-threatening neurological disorder, rarely linked to intracranial hypotension. The presentation showed a patient with intracranial hypotension after peridural anesthesia who experienced RCVS during the early postpartum period, suggesting a potential involvement of intracranial hypotension in RCVS occurrence.
Case Report: A young female of 29 years of age initially developed an orthostatic headache after undergoing a painless delivery with lumbar epidural anesthesia.
Eukaryotic cells release different types of extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes, apoptotic bodies and microvesicles. EVs carry proteins, lipids and nucleic acids specific to cells and cell states. Autophagy is an intracellular degradation process, which, along with EVs, can significantly affect the development and progression of neurological diseases and, therefore, has been the hotspot.

We aimed to investigate the association between serum amyloid A (SAA) levels and post-stroke cognitive impairment (PSCI) at 3 months after ischemic stroke.
Methods: One hundred and ninety-eight patients were enrolled prospectively from June 2020 to April 2021.
Stroke is an acute cerebrovascular disease, including ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Stroke is the second leading cause of death after ischemic heart disease, which accounts for 9% of the global death toll. To explore the molecular mechanisms of the effects of the dysregulated factors, in the GEO database, we obtained transcriptome data from 24 h/72 h of mice with ischemic stroke and 24 h/72 h of normal mice.
