Alpha-2-macroglobulin (α2MG) is thought to be associated with inflammatory reactions and procoagulant properties that might cause ischemic stroke. Endothelial dysfunction plays an important role in atherosclerosis development the occurrence of cardiovascular events. In this study, we investigated whether serum α2MG levels, endothelial function, progenitor cell (EPC) number were patients chronic stroke or risk factors.Patients a history any established factors enrolled study (n=102; 69 men,...
Pituitary apoplexy is known as an uncommon complication of pituitary adenoma, and anticoagulant therapy has been reported one the precipitating factors. We report 85-year-old man who developed during treatment with dabigatran. His medical history included a non-functioning adenoma non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Headache occurred 4 days after changing from warfarin to dabigatran; other neurological symptoms, such ptosis ophthalmoplegia, subsequently developed. On admission, laboratory...
Background:Few existing stroke registries allow for evaluation of severity, subtype and antithrombotic usage prior to onset over a given time period. The present study aimed elucidate temporal trends in initial presenting use 12-year period Japanese multicenter registry.
Strains of Streptococcus mutans expressing the cell surface collagen-binding protein, Cnm, encoded by cnm (cnm-positive S. mutans), are associated with hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and occurrence cerebral microbleeds (CMBs). Small diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) hyperintensities in patients acute ICH also CMBs. However, association between cnm-positive DWI is unclear. Hence, this study aimed to investigate ICH.Patients were prospectively registered at three hospitals. Dental...
Background and Purpose: Cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) are associated with not only higher age but also extensive white matter lesions (WMLs), indicating that CMBs could be a reflection of microangiopathy. have yet been examined in association cerebral blood flow (CBF) metabolism. The purpose this study was to clarify the relationships WMLs volume, CBF metabolism patients ischemic stroke. Methods: We enrolled 19 who had past history non-cardioembolic stroke without severe stenosis (>50%)...
Backgroundand Purpose: There is no established glycemic control for acute ischemic stroke. Patients’ outcomes may be deteriorated by strict with sliding-scale insulin therapy (SSIT) via hypoglycemia. We aimed to investigate baseline characteristics, frequency of hypoglycemia and outcome in diabetic patients who received SSIT Methods: Consecutive stroke diabetes mellitus (DM) admitted our hospital within 7 days onset from 2008 through 2010 were studied. DM was defined as having prior...
Background: Malnutrition is an independent risk factor of poor outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients, but the indicator malnutrition has not been well-established. The Controlling Nutritional Status (CONUT) score reported to be a useful prognostic value cardiovascular diseases and malignant tumors. We investigated relationship between CONUT functional outcomes patients. Method: Acute patients (n=264, 70±12 years old) within 7 days onset were consecutively studied. was calculated from...
要旨：症例は初産の37 歳女性．妊娠の経過は良好であったが分娩時に頭痛・左上下肢麻痺の出現を認めたため転院搬送された．頭部CT で右基底核領域の脳出血を認め，降圧加療を行い全身麻酔下で緊急帝王切開術を施行した．第14 病日の頭部MRI で頭蓋内血管に多発狭窄が見られreversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome（RCVS）と診断した．Transcranial color flow imaging（TC-CFI）では狭窄部に一致した流速の上昇を認めた．神経症状は徐々に改善し，MRI とTC-CFI で狭窄部の改善度を経時的に評価しえた．MRI と同様に，TC-CFI はRCVS の血管病変の継時的な評価が可能である．
