Intracranial Hypertension and Intra-abdominal Pressure. Is it Worth Measuring?
Patients with refractory intracranial hypertension who have already undergone all the measures recommended by the current guidelines can benefit from having their intra-abdominal pressure monitored since its increase generates hemodynamic repercussions ...

Monro-Kellie 2.0: The dynamic vascular and venous pathophysiological components of intracranial pressure [PDF]
For 200 years, the ‘closed box’ analogy of intracranial pressure (ICP) has underpinned neurosurgery and neuro-critical care. Cushing conceptualised the Monro-Kellie doctrine stating that a change in blood, brain or CSF volume resulted in reciprocal ...

Idiopathic Intracranial Hypertension [PDF]
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension ((IIH) is characterized by increased cerebrospinal fluid pressure of unknown cause. It is predominantly a disease of women in the childbearing years. Although the cause of IIH remains obscure, it has become clear that loss of visual function is common and patients may progress to blindness if untreated.

Magnetic resonance angiography signal intensity as a marker of hemodynamic impairment in intracranial arterial stenosis. [PDF]
BackgroundIntracranial arterial stenosis (ICAS) is the predominant cause of ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack in Asia. Change of signal intensities (SI) across an ICAS on magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) may reflect its hemodynamic ...
