Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy Is Associated With Higher R2 Relaxation Rate: An MRI and Pathology Study
ABSTRACT Objective Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) involves β‐amyloid deposition in the walls of cortical and leptomeningeal small vessels. Transverse relaxation rate (R2) is a major source of contrast in MRI. This study tested the hypothesis that CAA is associated with R2, extracted the spatial pattern of CAA‐related R2 abnormalities, and evaluated ...

ABSTRACT Objective Post‐discharge management and outcomes of acute symptomatic seizures (ASyS) remain underexplored. We analyzed post‐discharge ASM management and outcomes in ASyS patients undergoing continuous EEG (cEEG), including the role of outpatient care through a post‐acute symptomatic seizure (PASS) clinic. Methods We performed a single‐center,

Neuroprotective efficacy of nimesulide against hippocampal neuronal damage following transient forebrain ischemia [PDF]
Cyclooxygenase-2 is involved in the inflammatory component of the ischemic cascade, playing an important role in the delayed progression of the brain damage. The present study evaluated the pharmacological effects of the selective cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitor nimesulide on delayed neuronal death of hippocampal CA1 neurons following transient global ...

Physiologically-Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling of Blood Clearance of Liver Fluorescent Markers for the Assessment of the Degree of Hepatic Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury [PDF]
During liver transplantation, ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is inevitable and decreases the overall success of the surgery. While guidelines exist, there is no reliable way to quantitatively assess the degree of IRI present in the liver. Our recent study has shown a correlation between the bile-to-plasma ratio of FDA-approved sodium fluorescein (SF)

CSF Tau Is a Biomarker of Hippocampal Injury in Cryptogenic New‐Onset Refractory Status Epilepticus
ABSTRACT Objective Cryptogenic new‐onset refractory status epilepticus (cNORSE) is a devastating condition characterized by the de novo onset of status epilepticus with unclear etiology. The identification of relevant early biomarkers in cNORSE is important to elucidate pathophysiology, aid clinical decision‐making, and prognosticate outcomes in cNORSE.

Cyclooxygenase inhibition in ischemic brain injury [PDF]
Neuroinflammation is one of the key pathological events involved in the progression of brain damage caused by cerebral ischemia. Metabolism of arachidonic acid through cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes is known to be actively involved in the neuroinflammatory events leading to neuronal death after ischemia.
