In 65 cases of ischemic cerebral infarction, CT scans and quantitative assessments of the neurological disturbances were undertaken at specific intervals during the 4 week period after stroke. Forty-three patients underwent lumbar puncture to determine the serum/CSF albumin ratio. The etiology of the infarction was evaluated on the basis of angiographic, ultrasonic and cardiologic findings. A h...
A review of hemorrhagic transformation after brain ischemia is presented. The pathological, clinical and radiological aspects are discussed with respect to recent studies. The different pathophysiological mechanisms (reperfusion, vascular rupture, size of infarction, timing of constitution) are reviewed. The role of the utilization of antithrombotic (anticoagulant and thrombolytic) agents in th...
The purpose of this experiment was to determine whether an acute rise in brain perfusion pressure causes hemorrhagic transformation of an infarct without a reopening of the occluded artery. We raised the blood pressure of 22 cats by aortic obstruction 5-24 hours after transorbital middle cerebral artery clipping; hemorrhagic infarcts were induced in 11. Mean arterial blood pressure increased by...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Iron overload has been associated with greater oxidative stress and brain injury in experimental cerebral ischemia and reperfusion. This study investigates whether high serum ferritin levels, as an index of increased cellular iron stores, are associated with poor outcome, hemorrhagic transformation, and brain edema after treatment with tissue plasminogen activator in pati...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Low levels of low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (LDL-C) are suspected to be associated with a risk of hemorrhagic transformation after ischemic stroke. We assessed the risk of hemorrhagic transformation after cerebral ischemia/reperfusion in mice with low levels of LDL-C resulting from proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin 9 (PCSK9) deficiency. METHODS PCSK9-/- and P...
We studied the temporal profile of hemorrhagic transformation in 34 cases with autopsy-confirmed hemorrhagic infarction who died within 15 days following a supratentorial brain infarct, provided they had undergone computed tomography. It appeared that within 4 days, at least 76% (95% confidence interval 39-100%) of 21 cardioembolic strokes had become hemorrhagic. We conclude that if anticoagula...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE An abnormal expression of some matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is related with hemorrhagic transformation events after stroke. Our aim was to investigate MMP-2 and MMP-9 in the ischemic brain and its relation with blood-brain barrier breakdown after hemorrhagic transformation in human stroke. METHODS We assessed 5 cases of fatal ischemic strokes with hemorrhagic compli...
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The STARS trial (Stroke Treatment With Acute Reperfusion and Simvastatin) was conducted to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of simvastatin treatment in acute stroke. METHODS STARS07 was a multicentre, phase IV, prospective, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial. Patients with Acute ischemic stroke recruited within 12 hours from symptom onset were randomi...
Hemorrhagic infarction subsequent to ischemic brain damage, even if small, slight, or marbled, can be detected by CT. The mechanisms that give rise to this transformation in humans are not well elucidated. Previous reports indicate that hemorrhagic infarction is most common in embolic stroke and large infarcts, and can worsen the clinical state of ischemic patients. We examined 36 patients with...
Risk of hemorrhagic transformation, incomplete reperfusion, neurotoxicity, and a short treatment time window comprises major challenges for tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) thrombolytic stroke therapy. Improving tPA therapy has become one of the highest priorities in the stroke field. This mini review article focuses on our recent efforts aimed at evaluating a novel combination approach of lo...
