Edaravone dexborneol regulates γ-aminobutyric acid transaminase in rats with acute intracerebral hemorrhage
Edaravone dexborneol is neuroprotective against ischemic stroke, with free radical-scavenging and anti-inflammatory effects, but its effects in hemorrhagic stroke remain unclear. We evaluated whether edaravone dexborneol has a neuroprotective effect in intracerebral hemorrhage, and its underlying mechanisms. (Source: Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases)

A novel p55PIK signaling peptide inhibitor alleviates neuroinflammation via the STAT3/NF-kB signaling pathway in experimental stroke
Ischemic stroke remains the predominant contributor to mortality and disability globally. Microglia undergo rapid activation and initiate inflammatory cascade reactions by phenotypic polarization, participating in the regulation of inflammatory injury and tissue repair post-ischemic stroke. Regulating microglia-mediated neuroinflammation is a promising therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke. Previously, we designed and synthesized a novel p55PIK inhibitor, TAT-N15 polypeptide, which presents inhibitive activity on NF- κB signaling-mediated inflammation in acute conjunctivitis and allergic rhinitis.

Importance of Sex and Gender Differences in Enrollment and Interpretation of Stroke Clinical Trials
This review aims to reinforce the importance of improving sex balance in preclinical trials and sex and gender diversity and proportional balance in clinical trials enrollment and how this influences interpretation of stroke clinical trials. It also aims to identify strategies for improvement in data collection. (Source: Journal of Stroke and Cerebrovascular Diseases)

Association between the quantity of stroke care units and the complement of neurosurgical and neurology specialists in Japan: A retrospective study
Initial treatment in a stroke unit (SU) can reduce the mortality of stroke victims, increase the rate of discharge to home, and decrease the amount of time spent in the hospital. The effectiveness of an SU has also been proven in a meta-analysis. Stroke units have been established in various locations in Europe since 1990, and the medical system for managing the acute phase of stroke has improved1, 2. The Japanese Stroke Association recommends in its Stroke Treatment Guidelines 2021 that acute stroke patients should be treated by a multidisciplinary stroke team in an SU that provides intensive care and early rehabilitation...

A Systematic Review of the Epidemiology and The Public Health Implications of Stroke in Sub-Saharan Africa
With approximately 11 million strokes occurring annually worldwide, and over 6.5 million deaths annually, stroke has made its place as one of the major killers in the world. Although developing countries make up more than 4/5 of the global stroke burden, well-grounded information on stroke epidemiology remains lacking there.

Prevalence of symptoms of post stroke depression and anxiety in young adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Young adults with stroke have distinct professional and social roles making them vulnerable to symptoms of post-stroke depression (PSD) and post-stroke anxiety (PSA). Prior reviews have examined the prevalence of anxiety and depression in stroke populations. However, there are a lack of studies that have focused on these conditions in young adults.

De Novo Brain Vascular Malformation in an Adult with Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia and Juvenile Polyposis Overlap Syndrome
The development of brain vascular malformation (BVM) is rare in adults. The Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) Clinical Guidelines recommend BVM screening with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at the time of diagnosis. However, these guidelines apply broadly to the HHT population and do not account for patients with Mothers Against Decapentaplegic Homolog 4 (MADH4) mutations, often presenting other hypermobility features and cardiovascular anomalies (e.g., Aortic root aneurysms, vascular kinking).

Health Care-Associated Infections after Surgical Treatment of Ruptured Intracranial Aneurysms
Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is catastrophic, and microsurgery for ruptured intracranial aneurysms is one of the preventive modalities for rebleeding. However, patients remain at high risk of medical morbidities after surgery, one of the most important of which is health care-associated infections (HAIs). We analyzed the incidence and risk factors of HAIs, as well as their association with the outcomes after surgical treatment of ruptured aneurysms.
