Objective: To study the early diagnosis and treatment of intracranial venous thrombosis.
Method: The etiology, clinical manifestations, presentations in cerebral CT and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electroencephalogram (EEG) features, and the results of cerebral spinal fluid and blood rheological examinations were analyzed in 8 cases of intracranial venous thrombosis.
Results: Thrombosis often arose during the puerperium and from infection, with the frequent presentations of intracranial hypertension and focal neurological defect. CT and MRI examinations were helpful in the diagnosis.
Conclusion: For patients who present both intracranial hypertension and focal neurological defects, especially during the puerperium or with infection episodes, CT and MRI examinations should be performed to detect intracranial venous thrombosis.

Background: Clearance of brain toxins occurs during sleep, although the mechanism remains unknown. Previous studies implied that the intracranial aqueductal cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) oscillations are involved, but no mechanism was suggested. The rationale for focusing on the aqueductal CSF oscillations is unclear.

Background: Dementia aggravates most cerebrovascular lesions, which requires differentiating the developed microcirculatory changes when making a diagnosis. We consider the features of cerebral microcirculation disorders in Alzheimer's disease (AD), distal cerebral atherosclerosis, Binswanger's disease (BD), and vascular parkinsonism (VP).
Method: The study included 1024 patients who underwent: assessment of CDR, TDR, MMSE, cerebral MRI, MRA, CT, MSCTA, scintigraphy (SG), rheoencephalography (REG), cerebral multi-gated angiography (MUGA).

Background: Dural arteriovenous fistulas (DAVFs) are abnormal communications between dural arteries and cortical, meningeal, or dural sinus veins. They represent 10-15% of intracranial arteriovenous malformations. In rare cases, they have been associated with potentially reversible cognitive impairment and dementia.

Skeletal muscle relaxants have their place in everyday use in numerous anesthesiological procedures, such as preparing a patient for surgery, supporting mechanical ventilation, and performing effective intubation. These drugs can be divided, based on their mechanism of action, into depolarizing skeletal relaxants, such as succinylcholine, and non-depolarizing skeletal muscle relaxants. Non-depolarizing agents are further categorized, based on their structure, into steroidal (eg, rocuronium) and benzylisoquinoline (eg, atracurium) compounds.

Background: The safe timing window for surgery during the acute phase of inflammation due to traumatic brain injury (TBI) has not been studied extensively. We aimed to elucidate the relationship between the timing of surgery and changes in perioperative serum levels of inflammatory cytokines and factors associated to optimize TBI management in low-middle-income countries.
Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted among TBI Patients with depressed skull fractures with a GCS > 8 operated at different timing from injury and followed up peri-operatively.
