AI Article Synopsis

  • Intracerebral hemorrhage is a type of stroke with no specific treatment, and certain monocytes (Ly6Chi CCR2+) are linked to acute injury after such events.
  • The study investigated whether a different monocyte subset (Ly6Clo CX3CR1+) aids in recovery from this type of hemorrhage, but found no significant differences in outcomes or leukocyte recruitment between different genetic models.
  • Ultimately, the research concluded that CX3CR1 signaling in these monocytes does not significantly affect the injury or recovery process, suggesting it may not be a viable target for improving treatment outcomes.

Article Abstract

Intracerebral hemorrhage is a subset of stroke for which there is no specific treatment. The Ly6Chi CCR2+ monocytes have been shown to contribute to acute injury after intracerebral hemorrhage. The other murine monocyte subset expresses CX3CR1 and lower Ly6C levels, and contributes to repair in other disease models. We hypothesized that the Ly6Clo CX3CR1+ monocytes would contribute to recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage. Intracerebral hemorrhage was modeled by blood injection in WT and CX3CR1-null bone marrow chimeras. Neurological outcomes and leukocyte recruitment were quantified at various time points. Functional outcomes were equal at 1, 3, 7, and 14 days after intracerebral hemorrhage in both genotypes. No differences were observed in leukocyte recruitment between genotypes on either 3 or 7 days after intracerebral hemorrhage. A few hundred Ly6Clo monocytes were found in the ipsilateral hemisphere in each genotype and they did not change over time. Peripherally derived CX3CR1+ monocytes were observed in the perihematomal brain 7 and 14 days after intracerebral hemorrhage. Our data suggests CX3CR1 signaling on monocytes does not play an influential role in acute injury or functional recovery after intracerebral hemorrhage and therefore CX3CR1 is not a therapeutic target to improve outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage.

Background: After encephalopathy, epileptic seizures (ES) are the second most common neurologic complication after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) and may announce a disabling/fatal neurologic disease.

Methods: In this retrospective study, we collected clinical information from patients who underwent OLT at our institution and analyzed outcomes and potential risk factors for developing ES after OLT.

Results: Fourteen of our 376 patients (3.

The body weight-based thrombolytic medication strategy in clinical trials shows critical defects in recanalization rate and post-thrombolysis hemorrhage. Methods for perceiving thrombi heterogeneity of thrombolysis resistance is urgently needed for precise thrombolysis. Here, we revealed the relationship between the thrombin heterogeneity and the thrombolysis resistance in thrombi and created an artificial biomarker-based nano-patrol system with robotic functional logic to perceive and report the thrombolysis resistance of thrombi.

Left atrial myxoma is the most prevalent primary cardiac tumor, known for its high risk of systemic embolization. Although surgical excision remains the standard treatment, options are limited for high-risk patients. This case report introduces a novel approach using transcatheter electrosurgery to address a left atrial myxoma via a transseptal approach in a patient ineligible for conventional surgery due to the heightened risk of intracranial hemorrhage associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy.

Objective: To assess the predictive value of peripheral blood inflammatory markers for delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and explore methods for early intervention.

Methods: This single-center retrospective study reviewed medical records of ICH patients admitted to Cangzhou People's Hospital over a 12-month period from January 2022 to December 2023. Of the 150 identified patients with ICH, including 80 patients without DCI (control group) and 70 with DCI (observation group).
