Asymptomatic parenchymal haemorrhage following endovascular treatment: Impact on functional outcome in patients with acute ischaemic stroke.

Background And Purpose: In patients with acute ischaemic stroke (AIS), haemorrhagic transformation (HT) following endovascular treatment (EVT) is associated with poor functional outcome. However, the impact of asymptomatic HT, not linked to neurological deterioration in the acute phase, is unknown. We aimed to investigate the impact of asymptomatic PH1 (aPH1) and PH2 (aPH2) subtypes of HT on the functional outcome of patients treated with EVT.

Effect of imatinib on plasma glucose concentration in subjects with chronic myeloid leukemia and gastrointestinal stromal tumor.

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus has become one of the most important public health concerns worldwide. Due to its high prevalence and morbidity, there is an avid necessity to find new therapies that slow the progression and promote the regression of the disease. Imatinib mesylate is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor that binds to the Abelson tyrosine kinase and related proteins.
