Two patients admitted to the medical intensive care unit with subarachnoid haemorrhage, one with the provisional diagnosis of 'sick sinus syndrome' the other as having an acute myocardial infarction complicated by ventricular tachycardia, are described and the arrhythmias associated with this condition are reviewed.

Changes in hematoma volume following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and its impact on patient prognosis.
Front Neurol
January 2025
Department of Neurosurgery, Anhui No. 2 Provincial People's Hospital, Hefei, Anhui, China.
Objective: This study aims to investigate the effects of preoperative intracerebral hematoma volume (HVpre), hematoma volume 6-8 days post-surgery (HVpost), and the rate of hematoma volume change (HVpre-HVpost)/HVpre on the prognosis of patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).
Materials And Methods: CT imaging data from 62 aSAH patients admitted to our hospital's Neurosurgery Department between January 2022 and December 2023 were obtained, both preoperatively and 6-8 days postoperatively. The hematoma volumes were measured using 3D-Slicer.

Electronic address:
Background: The optimal duration of external ventricular drain (EVD) in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is debatable. We sought to determine the association of EVD duration and output with outcomes, including cerebral infarct.
Methods: We performed a retrospective study of a prospectively collected cohort of consecutive patients with aSAH who were admitted to an academic center from 2016 to 2023.
The clinical impact of recent amphetamine exposure in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage patients.
Front Neurol
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Weill Institute for Neurosciences, University of California, San Francisco, San Francisco, CA, United States.
Background: Amphetamines possess sympathomimetic properties that can affect cerebral vasculature though conflicting reports exist about their effect on vasospasm risk and clinical outcomes in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. This study aimed to characterize the impact of recent amphetamine use on vasospasm development in aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage as well as neurological outcomes.
Methods: We retrospectively screened 441 consecutive patients admitted with a diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage who underwent at least one cerebral digital subtraction angiogram.
Retrospective cohort study based on the MIMIC-IV database: analysis of factors influencing all-cause mortality at 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, and 3 years in patients with different types of stroke.
Front Neurol
January 2025
Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, The First Affiliated Hospital of Shenzhen University/The Second People's Hospital of Shenzhen, Shenzhen, China.
Objective: This study aims to evaluate key factors influencing the short-term and long-term prognosis of stroke patients, with a particular focus on variables such as body weight, hemoglobin, electrolytes, kidney function, organ function scores, and comorbidities. Stroke poses a significant global health burden, and understanding its prognostic factors is crucial for clinical management.
Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study based on data from the MIMIC-IV database, including stroke patients from 2010 to 2020.
