Background: Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) with an intracerebral hematoma (ICH) shows an unfavorable prognosis. In the present study, we examined the characteristics of SAH with ICH and its prognosis.
Methods: Subjects comprised 218 patients with SAH who underwent surgery between January 2007 and December 2015. We compared age, sex, the location of the aneurysm, treatment procedures, medical history (hypertension, diabetes, and heart disease), the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score on admission, rerupture rate, hydrocephalus, the diameter of the aneurysm, cerebral vasospasm, perioperative cardiopulmonary complications, and the Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS) score after 2 months between patients with SAH with and without ICH. The interval from the onset of SAH until surgery, the location of ICH, and hematoma volume were investigated as prognostic factors for SAH with ICH.
Results: Among all subjects, 82 had SAH with ICH. GCS scores on admission were poorer in patients with SAH with ICH than in those without ICH (P < .001), and middle cerebral artery aneurysms were more likely to form hematomas (P < .001). GOS scores after 2 months were also poorer in patients with SAH with ICH (P < .01). The size of aneurysms was larger in the 82 patients with SAH with ICH than in those without ICH (P < .001), and the rerupture rate was higher (P < .001). The unfavorable prognosis of patients with SAH with ICH was associated with age and GCS score on admission.
Conclusions: A young age and a favorable GCS score on admission may be associated with a favorable prognosis for patients with SAH with ICH, and SAH with ICH may easily rerupture.

Background/objectives: Orthostatic hypotension (OH) is highly prevalent in hospitalized patients and can lead to major consequences. The prevalence of OH among patients with stroke has also been reported to be high in in-patient cohorts. However, no previous analysis has focused exclusively on patients with hemorrhagic stroke, a group that may have a different disease profile, including a greater need for blood pressure control and surgical intervention.

Neurological complications in patients undergoing veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (V-V ECMO) are challenging, with new intracranial pathologies posing a grave risk. We aimed to evaluate the utility of neuron-specific enolase (NSE) and S100B biomarkers for predicting outcomes in new-onset intracranial pathology during V-V ECMO. A retrospective analysis spanning 2013-2021 at a German university hospital was conducted.

Intracerebral hematomas (ICHs) can complicate ruptured cerebral aneurysms. The standard approach for these cases has traditionally involved craniotomy with clipping and hematoma evacuation. Recently, however, a combination of coil embolization and neuroendoscopic hematoma removal has shown promise.

Background And Objective: We investigated the association of alleles with CT-based cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) markers including subarachnoid extension (SAE) and finger-like projection (FLP).
Methods: We included patients with acute primary supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) from a multicentre cohort in China. First, the association of with ICH location (lobar vs non-lobar) was evaluated.

Stroke risk increases with chronological age, but the relationship with biological age (BA) acceleration is poorly understood. We aimed to examine the association between BA acceleration and incident stroke and its subtypes, explore the modifying effects on genetic susceptibility, and assess how BA acceleration mediates the effect of behavior score. We studied 253,932 UK Biobank participants and computed two BA measures (Klemera-Doubal Method [KDM], Phenotypic Age [PhenoAge]), with BA acceleration calculated by regressing BA on chronological age.
