Predictors of malignant cerebral edema in cerebral artery infarction: A meta-analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Malignant cerebral edema (MCE) is a life-threatening complication of acute cerebral stroke. To date, the focus has been on symptomatic treatment, rather than on prevention. Therefore, to identify high-risk patients and explore potential therapeutic approaches, we investigated the possible predictors

Predictors of malignant brain edema in middle cerebral artery infarction observed on CT angiography.

Only registered users can translate articles

Patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction accompanied by MCA occlusion with or without internal carotid artery (ICA) occlusion have a poor prognosis, as a result of brain cell damage caused by both the infarction and by space-occupying and life-threatening edema formation. Multiple

The severity of ischemia determines and predicts malignant brain edema in patients with large middle cerebral artery infarction.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In order to determine the impact of the severity of ischemia on malignant edema formation, we investigated various degrees of perfusional deficit by (11)C-flumazenil PET in patients with large middle cerebral artery (MCA) infarction. METHODS 17 patients with large MCA stroke were

The roles of MMP-9/TIMP-1 in cerebral edema following experimental acute cerebral infarction in rats.

Only registered users can translate articles

Matrix metalloproteinases 9 (MMP-9) and its endogenous inhibitor, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 1 (TIMP-1), regulate homeostasis and turnover of the extra cellular matrix (ECM). They play important roles in acute cerebral infarction (ACI). The contributions of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 to the early

[Splenic infarct, lactate acidosis, and pulmonary edema as manifestations of a pheochromocytoma].

Only registered users can translate articles

The case of a 45-year-old woman with pheochromocytoma, who presented with severe abdominal pain and headache, diabetes mellitus, lactic acidosis and pulmonary edema, is described and discussed. Spleen infarction, not so far described as an ischemic complication of pheochromocytoma, was seen in

[A case of cerebral infarction treated with tissue-plasminogen activator exhibiting prolonged cerebral edema for more than 1 month].

Only registered users can translate articles

A 62-year-old man with hypertension and diabetes mellitus controlled by medication suddenly noticed slight hemiparesis and was admitted to our hospital. Tissue-plasminogen activator (t-PA) was administered as his NIHSS was 6 and there were no contraindications. His symptoms completely resolved after

Malignant cerebral edema after large anterior circulation infarction: a review.

Only registered users can translate articles

UNASSIGNED Malignant infarction implies a large middle cerebral artery (MCA) stroke that leads to rapid clinical deterioration and edema formation, and can be associated with hemorrhagic transformation, herniation, and poor functional outcomes, including death. Malignant edema is brain edema

Acute hypertensive pulmonary edema after Cesarean section in a patient with an antepartum myocardial infarction -A case report-.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report a case of 29-year-old, morbidly obese, diabetic primigravida who had undergone previously primary percutaneous coronary intervention with stent placement for an inferior wall myocardial infarction at 10 weeks of gestation. She remained asymptomatic with medication during the remainder of

A CMR study of the effects of tissue edema and necrosis on left ventricular dyssynchrony in acute myocardial infarction: implications for cardiac resynchronization therapy.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND In acute myocardial infarction (AMI), both tissue necrosis and edema are present and both might be implicated in the development of intraventricular dyssynchrony. However, their relative contribution to transient dyssynchrony is not known. Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) can

Accumulated mannitol and aggravated cerebral edema in a rat model of middle cerebral artery infarction.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Repeated administration of mannitol in the setting of large hemispheric infarction is a controversial and poorly defined therapeutic intervention. This study was performed to examine the effects of multiple-dose mannitol on a brain edema after large hemispheric infarction. METHODS A middle

The effects of mannitol on cerebral edema after large hemispheric cerebral infarct.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of a single large dose of mannitol on midline tissue shifts after a large cerebral infarction. BACKGROUND Theoretically, mannitol use in the largest cerebral infarctions may preferentially shrink noninfarcted cerebral tissue, thereby aggravating midline tissue shifts

Targeting of Extracellular RNA Reduces Edema Formation and Infarct Size and Improves Survival After Myocardial Infarction in Mice.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Following myocardial infarction (MI), peri-infarct myocardial edema formation further impairs cardiac function. Extracellular RNA (eRNA) released from injured cells strongly increases vascular permeability. This study aimed to assess the role of eRNA in MI-induced cardiac edema formation,

Dextrorphan reduces infarct volume, vascular injury, and brain edema after ischemic brain injury.

Only registered users can translate articles

Focal cerebral ischemia confined to the cerebral cortex in the right middle cerebral artery (MCA) territory was induced by temporary ligation of the MCA and both common carotid arteries (CCAs). Reperfusion was initiated by releasing all three arterial occlusions after 90 min of ischemia. Infarct

Intravenous immunoglobulin reduces infarct volume but not edema formation in acute stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) is used for treatment of immunodeficiencies and autoimmune disorders. Recently, IVIG has also been shown to reduce infarct size in acute stroke. Since edema treatment can provide secondary neuroprotective effects, we conducted the present study to evaluate

Reduction of copper, zinc-superoxide dismutase in knockout mice does not affect edema or infarction volumes and the early release of mitochondrial cytochrome c after permanent focal cerebral ischemia.

Only registered users can translate articles

Copper,zinc-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) was shown to be highly protective against ischemia/reperfusion injury in the brain. We have recently reported that SOD1 prevents the release of mitochondrial cytochrome c and subsequent apoptosis after ischemia/reperfusion in mice. To investigate its dose
