Glyburide is associated with attenuated vasogenic edema in stroke patients.
BACKGROUND Brain edema is a serious complication of ischemic stroke that can lead to secondary neurological deterioration and death. Glyburide is reported to prevent brain swelling in preclinical rodent models of ischemic stroke through inhibition of a non-selective channel composed of sulfonylurea receptor 1 and transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 4. However, the rel...
متن کاملStroke in MELAS is a Vasogenic Edema and Not Ischemic
We read with interest the article by Almasi et al. on a 48 years old female patient with Mitochondrial Encephalomyopathy, Lactic Acidosis, And Stroke-like episodes (MELAS), diagnosed based on the clinical presentation, blood test results, and imaging and muscle biopsy findings .

متن کاملVasogenic Brain Edema Formation
Brain edema (BE) research lacks quantitative regional methods. We modified the method of Pappius and McCann (1969), who used radioactive iodinated P serum albumin (R1SA) as a label for vasogenic BE fluid. To correct for intravascular plasma volume we used Cr^ labelled red blood cells and calculated equivalent extravascular plasma volume (EVPV). The modified RISA method was compared with a stand...
متن کاملVasogenic edema in a patient with sickle cell disease.
A 5-8% of patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) develop symptoms of cerebral disease.1 Stroke and cerebral thrombo-embolism are commonly seen while sinus thrombosis occurs rarely.1 These complications have been attributed to the increase in blood flow and viscosity. Vasogenic edema, an increase in the blood brain barrier (BBB) vascular permeability, which contributes to brain tissue damage is...
متن کاملDiabetic Macular Edema Pathophysiology: Vasogenic versus Inflammatory
Diabetic macular edema (DME) can cause blindness in diabetic patients suffering from diabetic retinopathy (DR). DM parameters controls (glycemia, arterial tension, and lipids) are the gold standard for preventing DR and DME. Although the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is known to play a role in the development of DME, the pathological processes leading to the onset of this disease ar...
