Thrombin plays an important role in brain injuries associated with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). The protease-activated receptor (PAR)-1 is responsible for the vast majority of the thrombin's cellular activation functions. We tested the hypothesis that thrombin-induced brain damage after ICH, at least in part, is mediated by PAR-1. We report that there are significant differences between PAR-1 positive cell number and PAR-1 mRNA absorbance ratio between ICH model group (at 6h, 24h, 3 d, 7 d and 14 d) and normal group (P<0.05). These results suggest that the long-time course of PAR-1 expression may be partly involved in the mechanism of thrombin-induced brain damage after ICH.

Elevated tissue factor pathway inhibitor is associated with intracerebral haemorrhage of unknown cause in young adults.
Neurol Neurochir Pol
December 2024
Department of Thromboembolic Diseases, Institute of Cardiology, Jagiellonian University Medical College, Krakow, Poland.
Clinical Rationale For Study: We have reported that intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) of unknown cause at a young age is associated with lower prothrombin and factor VII and higher antithrombin activity, along with the formation of looser fibrin networks displaying enhanced lysability. Patients with mild-to-moderate bleeding of unknown cause have elevated levels of free plasma tissue factor pathway inhibitor alpha (fTFPIα), inhibiting the tissue factor-factor VII complex and prothrombinase.
Aim Of Study: We hypothesised that patients with an intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) of unknown cause may also exhibit higher fTFPIα.
Annao Pingchong decoction attenuates oxidative stress and neuronal apoptosis following intracerebral hemorrhage via RAGE-NOX2/4 axis.

Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe condition associated with high mortality and disability rates. Oxidative stress plays a critical role in the development of secondary brain injury (SBI) following ICH. Previous research has demonstrated that Annao Pingchong decoction (ANPCD) treatment for ICH has antioxidant effects, but the exact mechanism is not yet fully understood.

Department of Radiology, Qilu Hospital (Qingdao) of Shandong University, Qingdao, China.
Objectives: To investigate the function of the glymphatic system (GS) and its association with neuropsychological tests in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (sICH) by diffusion tensor imaging analysis along the perivascular space (DTI-ALPS).
Methods: This retrospective study included 58 patients with sICH and 63 age- and sex-matched healthy controls (HCs). Partial correlation analyses were performed to examine the relationships between the DTI-ALPS index and radiological as well as clinical data.

Cardiac compression is the most crucial component of successful cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). However, CPR procedure poses a risk of complications, even when CPR providers perform cardiac compressions as recommended. Reports indicate that solid organ injuries, including liver injuries, occur with an incidence of about 0.

We present a highly challenging case of brainstem hemorrhage complicated with pneumonia in a 41-year-old male patient. The patient had intermittent and recurrent fever for nearly two months from June 24, 2022 to August 22, 2022, along with extremely unstable vital signs. Multiple consultations were conducted among clinicians and pharmacists.
