Cigarette Smoke Initiates Oxidative Stress-Induced Cellular Phenotypic Modulation Leading to Cerebral Aneurysm Pathogenesis. [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Cigarette smoke exposure (CSE) is a risk factor for cerebral aneurysm (CA) formation, but the molecular mechanisms are unclear. Although CSE is known to contribute to excess reactive oxygen species generation, the role of oxidative stress on ...

Kinematic measures provide useful information after intracranial aneurysm treatment
Introduction Current methods of assessing the outcomes of intracranial aneurysm treatment for aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage are relatively insensitive, and thus unlikely to detect subtle deficits.

Rupture of an intracranial aneurysm is a life-threatening event. Only one third of intracranial aneurysms rupture during a patient’s lifetime. Accurate markers that predict which intracranial aneurysms rupture and which do not are currently lacking in ...

Genetics of Intracranial Aneurysms [PDF]
Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) are localized dilatations of intracranial arteries that are because of weaknesses of the endothelial layer. These dilations vary in size (small aneurysms, 25 mm) and are classified according to their shapes: either localized sac-like pouches or long dilatations that increase the vessels diameter; these shapes are referred ...

Abstract 179: Tackling Intracranial Aneurysm in Africa: Bridging the Gap in Medical Infrastructure
Introduction Intracranial Aneurysm results from enlargement in the wall of a blood vessel in the brain, especially in the circle of Willis. It represents a high mortality and morbidity rate due to its risk of rupture causing Sub Arachnoid Hemorrhage ...

Assessment of acute headache in adults - what the general physician needs to know. [PDF]
Headache is common. Up to 5% of attendances to emergency departments and acute medical units are due to headache. Headache is classified as either primary (eg migraine, cluster headache) or secondary to another cause (eg meningitis, subarachnoid ...

Traumatic intracranial aneurysms [PDF]
Traumatic intracranial aneurysms are rare, occurring in fewer than 1% of patients with cerebral aneurysms. They can occur following blunt or penetrating head trauma and are more common in the pediatric population. Traumatic aneurysms can be categorized histologically as true, false, or mixed, with false aneurysms being the most common.
