Introduction: Intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating disease that leads to severe neurological deficits. Microglia are the first line of defence in the brain and play a crucial role in neurological recovery after ICH, whose activities are primarily driven by glucose metabolism. However, little is known regarding the status of glucose metabolism in microglia and its interactions with inflammatory responses after ICH.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a devastating cerebrovascular disease resulting from blood extravasating into the brain parenchyma. Escalation of erythrophagocytosis (a form of efferocytosis), avoiding the consequent release of the detrimental erythrocyte lysates, may be a promising target of ICH management. The ADAM17 inhibitor and liver X receptor (LXR) agonist could promote efficient efferocytosis and injury repair.

Background: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is an uncommon type of potentially fatal stroke. The pathophysiological mechanisms of brain injury remain unclear, which hinders the development of drugs for SAH. We aimed to investigate the pathophysiological mechanisms of SAH and to elucidate the cellular and molecular biological response to SAH-induced injury.

This study aims to examine influence paths of three metacognitive reading strategies (metacognitive understanding and remembering strategies, metacognitive summarizing strategies and metacognitive assessing credibility strategies) on scientific literacy, mediated by reading self-efficacy and reading literacy. The dataset included 11,420 15-year-old students from four Chinese provinces (Beijing, Shanghai, Jiangsu and Zhejiang) who took part in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) in 2018. The results of structural equation model showed that metacognitive assessing credibility strategies had the greatest effect on the scientific literacy, and reading literacy played an important mediating role in the relationship between the three metacognitive reading strategies and scientific literacy.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is the most common subtype of hemorrhagic stroke. After ICH, blood components extravasate from vessels into the brain, activating immune cells and causing them to release a series of inflammatory mediators. Immune cells, together with inflammatory mediators, lead to neuroinflammation in the perihematomal region and the whole brain, and neuroinflammation is closely related to secondary brain injury as well as functional recovery of the brain.

Aim: The complement cascade is activated and may play an important pathophysiologic role in brain injury after experimental intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). However, the exact mechanism of specific complement components has not been well studied. This study determined the role of complement C1q/C3-CR3 signaling in brain injury after ICH in mice.

Background: The relationship between neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and poor outcome of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is controversial. We aim to evaluate the relationship between NLR on admission and the poor outcome after aSAH.

Method: Part I: Retrospective analysis of aSAH patients in our center.

Background: Polarization of microglia/macrophages toward the pro-inflammatory phenotype is a crucial contributor to neuroinflammation after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Mer belongs to the TAM receptor tyrosine kinases family, which is known to play a significant role in the resolution of inflammation. However, the effect and mechanism of Mer after SAH remain unclear.

Aim: Previous studies have proved that inhibiting inflammasome activation provides neuroprotection against early brain injury (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which is mainly focused on the microglial inflammatory response, but the potential role of neuronal inflammasome activation in EBI has not been clearly identified. This study examined whether the pannexin-1 channel inhibitor probenecid could reduce EBI after SAH by inhibiting neuronal AIM2 inflammasome activation.

Methods: There are and parts in this study.

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a common cerebrovascular disorder with high morbidity and mortality. Secondary brain injury after ICH, which is initiated by multiple hemolytic products during erythrolysis, has been identified as a critical factor accounting for the poor prognosis of ICH patients. Clot resolution and hematoma clearance occur immediately after ICH via erythrolysis and erythrophagocytosis.
