Genetic Contribution to Asthma Informs Acute Chest Syndrome Pathophysiology and Risk Stratification
ABSTRACT Acute chest syndrome (ACS) is a severe complication of sickle cell disease (SCD) occurring in ~50% of patients, some presenting frequent episodes. We lack tools to identify patients at high risk of ACS occurrence or frequent episodes. Epidemiological studies have found an association between asthma and ACS, but whether this link is causal is ...

Cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness upon acute high-altitude exposure at 3,700 m in young Chinese men. [PDF]
PURPOSE: We aimed at identifying the cerebral hemodynamic characteristics of acute mountain sickness (AMS). METHODS: Transcranial Doppler (TCD) sonography examinations were performed between 18 and 24 h after arrival at 3,700 m via plane from 500 m (n ...

Objective Cerebral ischemic stroke causes neuronal oxygen/energy deprivation, disrupting mitochondrial function including reduced membrane potential and bioenergetics, exacerbating neuronal injury. Mitochondrial defects are, therefore, a central neuropathological node and potential therapeutic target.

Cerebral venous hemodynamic abnormalities in episodic and chronic migraine [PDF]
Alterations of cerebral venous drainage have been demonstrated in chronic migraine (CM), suggesting that cerebral venous hemodynamic abnormalities (CVHAs) play a role in this condition.

This case illustrates sequential intracranial occlusions in large‐vessel vasculitis compatible with Takayasu arteritis preserving perfusion through robust collateral pathways. Transcranial color‐coded duplex sonography identified characteristic blunted flow patterns and focal turbulence, underscoring its value in detecting hemodynamic compromise beyond

A pre‐cannulation survey of the circle of Willis (CoW) using transcranial Doppler (TCD) ultrasound was implemented to assess cerebral collateral circulation in children undergoing VA ECMO or cardiac surgery with cervical cannulation. The technique, in use since 2019, employs high‐end ultrasound platforms to assess brain morphology, haemorrhage and ...

ABSTRACT Purpose To directly quantify respiration‐driven cerebrovascular resistance dynamics (CRD) using a gas‐free MRI framework based on the internal‐to‐external artery carotid flow ratio (ratio_Q). Theory and Methods Two independent datasets (n = 10 and n = 17) were used to evaluate repeatability and to compare breathing conditions.

ABSTRACT Objectives Sleep‐disordered breathing (SDB) and cognitive challenges are commonly observed in children living with sickle cell anaemia (SCA). This study investigated the longitudinal change in polysomnographic outcomes and the association with cognitive functions in children living with SCA.
