Rapid and targeted diagnostic evaluation is essential in the clinical diagnosis of cerebral ischaemic infarction. According to the principle “time is brain”, clinical evaluation should be performed as a matter of urgency to initiate potential treatment without any delay. Cerebral infarction is a medical emergency and accordingly, patients with suspected cerebral infarction have priority in the ...

background: stroke is the third leading cause of death. hypothermia has been recognized as an effective method in reducing brain injury. in this study, we assessed the effects of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (g-csf) as a neuroprotective agent and mild hypothermia on mortality, behavioral function, infarct volume, and brain edema in wistar rats. methods: forty male rats were used in fiv...

objective(s): some histopathological alterations take place in the ischemic regions following brain ischemia. recent studies have demonstrated some neuroprotective roles of crocin in different models of experimental cerebral ischemia. here, we investigated the probable neuroprotective effects of crocin on the brain infarction and histopathological changes after transient model of focal cerebral...

From a study of the evolution of atherothrombotic brain infarction (ABI) in the Framingham cohort of 5,209 men and women over 18 years of follow-up, it has been ascertained that hypertensionis the most common and most powerful precursor. Atherothrombotic brain infarction developed in hypertensive patients seven times more often than in normotensive patients, and the risk was proportional to the...

There is no data in the literature on course of myocardial infarction patients after COVID-19. Purpose to use a clinical example present case postinfarction left ventricular aneurysm patient undergoing Materials and methods: Patient T., 49 years old, was admitted federal state budgetary institution Federal Center Cardiovascular Surgery Ministry Health Russian Federation (Astrakhan) with complai...

To determine if a history of snoring is a risk factor for brain infarction, I conducted a case-control study of risk factors for ischemic stroke using 177 consecutive male patients aged 16-60 (mean 49) years with acute brain infarction. For each patient I chose an age-matched (+/- 6 years) male control. Arterial hypertension, coronary heart disease, snoring (habitually or often), and heavy drin...

We describe a 51-year-old woman with a cerebral infarction that showed transient accumulation of thallium-201. On admission, this lesion was well-enhanced by gadolinium injection and gradually expanded, mimicking a malignant brain tumor. A cerebral angiogram, however, did not indicate the presence of a malignant brain tumor. Ethyl cysteinate dimer single photon computerized tomography showed pe...

A 50-year-old woman developed multiorgan system failure secondary to sepsis. She became obtunded during a period of hypotension, and cranial CT demonstrated diffuse borderzone infarction. Brain autopsy revealed green pigmentation in areas of infarction due to vascular leakage of bilirubin at sites of blood–brain barrier disruption, mapping the borderzone regions and bilateral posterior anterior...

We studied 177 consecutive male patients aged 16-60 years with brain infarction verified by neuroradiology and analyzed the time of onset of stroke symptoms related to sleep and the role of possible or known risk factors for brain infarction. Brain infarction occurred relatively more often during the first 30 minutes after awakening than at any other time. In multiple stepwise logistic regressi...
