Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is increasingly recognized as a cause of lobar cerebral hemorrhage in normotensive elderly individuals. Isolated reports have suggested that neurosurgical intervention entails a high risk of precipitated hemorrhage. We identified 16 pathologically confirmed cases of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. Fourteen of these patients presented with lobar cerebral hemorrhage. Fift...

Background and Purpose—The incidence of hemorrhage after combined intravenous (IV) and intra-arterial (IA) recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) was examined in patients entered into the Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS) trial. We also analyzed factors predicting symptomatic and asymptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Methods—The IMS study treated patients within 3 hours...

BACKGROUND We aimed to estimate the risk of ischemic stroke after intracranial hemorrhage in patients with atrial fibrillation. MATERIALS AND METHODS Using discharge data from all nonfederal acute care hospitals and emergency departments in California, Florida, and New York from 2005 to 2012, we identified patients at the time of a first-recorded encounter with a diagnosis of atrial fibrillat...

Background: Anemia in pregnancy usually occurs the 1st and 3rd trimesters with Hb levels below 11g% 2nd trimester less than 10.5g%. The prevalence of anemia pregnant women around world ranges from 41.8% to 43.8%, which means that 56-59 million suffer anemia. Factors cause often appear are malnutrition iron deficiency, so can result increased maternal mortality rates (MMR). during fetal death, a...

The diabetes insipidus dog is more susceptible to hemorrhage than the normal dog as determined by a standardized hemorrhage procedure. When aqueous pitressin is administered in subpressor dosages, this susceptibility to hemorrhage is reversed to or toward normal. Aqueous pitressin does not increase the intact dog's resistance to hemorrhage. The foregoing observations are interpreted as demonstr...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Our purpose was to describe and further understand the determinants of the time of onset of parenchymatous intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage in patients enrolled in the Stroke Data Bank. METHODS We analyzed the observed times of onset of intracerebral hemorrhage (n = 237 patients) and subarachnoid hemorrhage (n = 243 patients) compared with expected t...

Hemorrhage is a common clinical manifestation in dengue patients. However, the pathogenic mechanism of dengue virus (DV)-induced hemorrhage awaits clarification. We established a mouse model of DV hemorrhage using immunocompetent C57BL/6 mice by injecting DV serotype 2 strain 16681 intradermally. While inoculation of 3 x 10(9) PFU of DV induced systemic hemorrhage in all of the mice by day 3 of...
