Morbidity rise of cerebrovascular pathology is followed by remarkable cognitive decline. Chronic cerebral blood insufficiency and stroke consequences compose a group of the diseases which lead to different types of memory deterioration, consecutive memory decline and as a result to professional and social dysadaptation. The morphological basis of the problem consists in progressive structural cerebral deficit with forming a new adaptive system. The activity of this system is often not effective due to a lack of mediator supply. We have investigated the effects of monotherapy by a new nootropic drug--pramiracetam (Pramistar) on neuropsychological symptoms of memory deterioration in patients with chronic cerebrovascular insufficiency and stroke consequences in basilar and carotid vascular basin. The data obtained suggest statistically significant heterogeneous influence of the medicine on intensity of the evaluated symptoms.

Background And Objective: Apixaban is increasingly being used for stroke prevention in patients with end-stage kidney disease with atrial fibrillation undergoing haemodialysis, but no pharmacostatistical model is available for dosage adjustment. This study aimed to develop a population pharmacokinetic model of apixaban in these patients to characterise its dialytic clearance and determine optimal dosing regimens and discontinuation timing before surgery.

Hemophilia A (HA) is associated with FVIII coagulation insufficiency or inactivity leading to excessive bleeding. Elevated FVIII, on the contrary, is associated with thrombophilia, thrombosis, myocardial infarctions, and stroke. Active FVIII (aFVIII) uses its C2 domain to bind to blood cells' membranes, consequently carrying out its coagulative function.

Cardiovascular diseases such as stroke are a major cause of morbidity and mortality for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). The underlying mechanisms connecting CKD and cardiovascular disease are yet to be fully elucidated, but inflammation is proposed to play an important role based on genetic association studies, studies of inflammatory biomarkers, and clinical trials of anti-inflammatory drug targets. There are multiple sources of both endogenous and exogenous inflammation in CKD, including increased production and decreased clearance of proinflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress, metabolic acidosis, chronic and recurrent infections, dialysis access, changes in adipose tissue metabolism, and disruptions in intestinal microbiota.

Background And Objective: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a significant cause of life-threatening heart disease due to its potential to lead to stroke and heart failure. Although deep learning-assisted diagnosis of AF based on ECG holds significance in clinical settings, it remains unsatisfactory due to insufficient consideration of noise and redundant features. In this work, we propose a novel multiscale feature-enhanced gating network (MFEG Net) for AF diagnosis.

Background: Metagenomic high-throughput sequencing (mNGS) represents a powerful tool for detecting nucleic acids from various pathogens, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses and parasites, in clinical samples. Despite its extensively employed in the pathogen diagnosis for various infectious diseases, its application in diagnosing stroke-related infection, and its potential impact on clinical decision-making, anti-infection treatment, clinical intervention, and patient prognosis remain insufficiently explored. Additionally, while mNGS offers promising potential, it facts limitations related to sensitivity, specificity, cost, and standardization, which could influence its integration into routine clinical practice.
