Objective: Intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) is a serious condition with high mortality rates and poor functional outcome in survivors. Treatment includes external ventricular drains (EVDs), which are associated with several complications. This study reports the clinical outcome and complication rate in patients with primary IVH (pIVH) and secondary IVH treated with EVDs.

Background: Our studies suggest that iron-overloaded rats developed neurotoxicity and cognitive impairment (1,2). An increase in brain mitochondrial fission and brain mitophagy have been considered as one of underlying mechanisms in brain with iron-overloaded condition (3,4). Hence, a pharmacological intervention focused on preventing brain mitochondrial pathologies is required.

Anti-amyloid immunotherapy holds great promise for our patients and their families as the first disease-modifying therapy for the treatment of Alzheimer's disease (AD) to be approved. Positive clinical trials for lecanamab and donanemab showed significant and rapid lowering of brain amyloid burden and a significant slowing of cognitive decline. Amyloid-related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) in the form of vasogenic edema (ARIA-E) and micro - and macro- hemorrhages (ARIA-H) remain the major obstacle to broad use of these agents.

ARIA-E/H (amyloid-related imaging abnormalities-Edema/Hemorrhage) is an umbrella term that defines the radiographic appearance of MRI images abnormality during treatments with Aβ-lowering monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) for Alzheimer's disease immunotherapy. Today, it is well-recognized that ARIA-E events can also occur spontaneously in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy-related inflammation (CAA-ri), a rare autoimmune encephalopathy associated with raised cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentrations of spontaneous auto-antibodies against Aβ (aAbs). In this framework, the last years of research and experience of the iCAB international Network generated an increased consensus that therapy-induced ARIA is the iatrogenic manifestation of CAA-ri.
