The present study evaluated the prevalence and therapy of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after total hip arthroplasty (THA) and total knee arthroplasty (TKA) in 57 patients with previous ischemic stroke. Postoperative anticoagulants were used for DVT prophylaxis, and batroxobin and prolonged anticoagulants were used for thrombolysis in DVT subjects. The incidence of DVT after THA and TKA in patients with previous ischemic stroke was 16.2% and 20%, respectively. No bleeding complications were observed and no new ischemic stroke occurred during the following 3 months. The prevalence DVT after THA and TKA in patients with previous ischemic stroke was not specific, and the treatment of DVT with batroxobin and anticoagulants was effective and safe.

Object: Neuroinflammation mediated by microglia has emerged as a critical factor in ischemic stroke and neuronal damage. Gualou Guizhi Granule (GLGZG) has been shown to suppress inflammation in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated microglia, though the underlying mechanisms and its protective effects against neuronal apoptosis remain unclear. This study aims to investigate how GLGZG regulates the Notch signaling pathway in microglia to reduce neuroinflammation and protect neurons from apoptosis.

Moyamoya disease (MMD) is characterized by distinct histopathological changes in intracranial arteries, such as narrowing of the arterial lumen due to thickening of the tunica intima, waving of the internal elastic membranes, and thinning of the tunica media. Ring finger protein 213 is a susceptibility gene for MMD that affects clinical outcomes. However, little is known about its relationship with histopathology.

Introduction: Delirium, frequently experienced by ischemic stroke patients, is one of the most common neuropsychiatric syndromes reported in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). Stroke patients with delirium have a high mortality rate and lengthy hospitalization. For these reasons, early diagnosis of delirium in the ICU is critical for better patient prognosis.

Background: Dabigatran etexilate (DABE), a prodrug of dabigatran (DAB), is a direct thrombin inhibitor used to prevent ischemic stroke and thromboembolism during atrial fibrillation. The effect of genetic polymorphisms on its metabolism, particularly , has not been extensively explored in humans. This study aimed to investigate the effects of , , and polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of DAB and its acylglucuronide metabolites in healthy subjects.
