Acute stroke with high-dose intravenous immune globulin.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE A case of acute stroke in a patient who was receiving high-dose intravenous immune globulin (IVIG) for dermatomyositis is reported. CONCLUSIONS A 43-year-old woman presented with overwhelming proximal weakness and myalgias, swelling in her hands, facial and knee rash, generalized fatigue,

Fibrinogen and the albumin-globulin ratio in recurrent stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE In following patients initially recruited for a cross-sectional study of blood viscosity in ischemic cerebrovascular disease, it was noted that those having a low albumin-globulin ratio appeared to experience the majority of subsequent vascular events. Accordingly, a prospective study in

Reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy, cerebral vasoconstriction, and strokes after intravenous immune globulin therapy in guillain-barre syndrome.

Only registered users can translate articles

The authors report a patient with Guillain-Barré syndrome who developed acute hypertension, reversible posterior leukoencephalopathy syndrome, ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes, and reversible cerebral arterial vasoconstriction shortly after initiating intravenous immune globulin therapy. Possible

Circulating SHBG (Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin) and Risk of Ischemic Stroke: Findings From the WHI.

Only registered users can translate articles

Background and Purpose- Circulating levels of SHBG (sex hormone-binding globulin) have been inversely linked to obesity, diabetes mellitus, and other cardiometabolic disorders. It remains uncertain whether low SHBG is prospectively predictive of stroke risk, particularly in women. We investigated

Strokes after intravenous gamma globulin: thrombotic phenomenon in patients with risk factors or just coincidence?

Only registered users can translate articles

We report the case of an 82-year-old woman with a diagnosis of chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy (CIDP) for more than 10 years, who developed an ischemic stroke during infusion of immunoglobulin (IVIG). She had received IVIG intermittently for several years, and the previous 86 doses

Relation of atrial fibrillation and high haematocrit to mortality in acute stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Clinical and laboratory abnormalities and the presence of atrial fibrillation on admission were examined in relation to hospital mortality in a retrospective study of the 320 patients with acute stroke admitted to a medical unit in a 5-year period. Of clinical factors, only increasing age and the

Serum thyroid hormones and thyroid hormone binding proteins in patients with completed stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

Thirty euthyroid patients hospitalized for completed stroke had serum thyroxine, triiodothyronine, thyroxine-binding globulin and thyroxine-binding prealbumin levels significantly decreased (p less than 0.01 to p less than 0.001) compared with 70 age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Admission

Alteration of serum pituitary hormone levels in postmenopausal women with stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine if circulating levels of pituitary hormones are altered by stroke and, if so, whether these alterations offer insight into specific neurochemical pathways in the region of the central nervous system injury. METHODS Twenty-eight consecutive

A patient with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura presenting with an acute ischemic stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

We report a 63 year-old man with an acute right occipital lobe infarction coincident with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura. The patient's thrombocytopenia responded to steroids and intravenous immune globulin with no further cerebrovascular complications. We suggest that ITP-induced platelet

Hemorheology, stroke and the elderly.

Only registered users can translate articles

Whole blood filterability was measured in 53 stroke patients (28 patients 40-60 yr and 25 patients greater than 60 yr) to study the hemorheologic parameters, stressing the changes occurring in the elderly. A negative linear correlation was found between whole blood filterability and the hematocrit,

[A case of pituitary apoplexy approving as severe headache and nausea].

Only registered users can translate articles

The causes of pituitary apoplexy are unclear. We report a case of pituitary apoplexy presenting with headache and nausea. On June 17th, 1997 a 74-year-old woman had complained of retro-orbital headache, fever and vomiting. A cold was diagnosed for which she recurred medication. In addition to the

Acute-phase proteins before cerebral ischemia in stroke-prone rats: identification by proteomics.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE A high degree of proteinuria has been reported in stroke-prone spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHRSP). We studied the effect of salt loading on the detailed protein pattern of serum and urine in 3 rat strains: Wistar-Kyoto, spontaneously hypertensive rats, and SHRSP, an inbred animal

Chronic blood hyperviscosity in subjects with acute stroke, transient ischemic attack, and risk factors for stroke.

Only registered users can translate articles

The origin and significance of blood hyperviscosity in subjects with acute stroke has been controversial. It has been argued that viscous abnormalities simply reflect either elevated hematocrit or an acute-phase response to the stroke itself. To address these issues, we measured the factors that
