The gravity of the disease caused by the new coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) is predominantly harbored in severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), often requiring ventilatory support. However, in some cases it has been observed that the involvement of this entity is not restrict to the respiratory
Cerebral edema accounts for an essential part of the morbidity and mortality in severe traumatic brain injury but can also arise in other cerebral pathologies such as infectious and ischemic conditions such e.g. stroke and meningitis. Cerebral edema can lead to an elevated intracranial pressure
BACKGROUND BPD continues to be one of the most common complications associated with preterm birth. A 2013 US study reported an increase in healthcare cost of $31,565 associated with BPD, after controlling for birth weight, gestational age, and socio-demographic characteristics during the initial
This study aims to improve cognition and function in patients with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) by administering the oral antibiotic, rifaximin. Rifaximin is a virtually non-absorbed antibiotic with the unique properties of altering gut microbiota and lowering blood ammonia levels. It is FDA approved
Aims and objectives:
The present proposal aims to improve the outcome from central nervous system infections (CNS) by improving the understanding of when and why patients develop hearing loss and other neurological sequelae. The investigators will elucidate the temporal development and restitution
Study design and participants The study was conducted in four provinces (Shandong, Shanxi, Shaanxi and Hunan) of China, which contains Haiyang city, Rushan city, Shimen County, Chen Cang District, Qishan County, Taigu County and Qi County. 6/8 months children were recruited in this study,
This is the first trial of BAF312 in ICH patients to study efficacy, safety, and tolerability, compared to placebo. BAF312 is a drug that could potentially limit brain inflammation after ICH, and thereby improve neurological outcome for stroke patients.
In this study, ICH patients meeting study
This is a prospective, randomized, open-label, blinded endpoint (PROBE) design clinical trial, in multiple stroke centers of China. The total sample size will be 98. Patients being treated with standard alteplase bridging and mechanical thrombectomy will be randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to
Background
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains a devastating disease with mortality rates up to 52% at 30 days. It is a major public health problem with an annual incidence of 10-30 per 100'000 population, accounting for 2 million (10-15%) of about 15 million strokes worldwide each
Japanese encephalitis (JE) is the most important epidemic encephalitis worldwide, causing approximately 35-50,000 cases and 10-15,000 deaths annually. Half of the survivors have severe neuropsychiatric sequelae, posing a large socio-economic burden on communities that can ill afford it. JE virus
Hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) is a significant cause of death, usually characterized by vesicular lesions on the skin and oral mucosa and high morbidity rates in children. Additionally, occasional fatal cases have been reported involving brainstem encephalitis and myelitis associated with
Objective:
Brain damage following traumatic injury (TBI) results from both direct (eg, mechanical injury to the brain and vasculature) and indirect mechanisms (eg, secondary mechanisms such as inflammation). While CT and MRI can help visualize the result of inflammatory processes in the brain for
