Introduction Hypertension is the commonest medical complication of pregnancy. It is associated with high maternal and perinatal mortality, especially when severe. Hypertensive disorders of pregnancy constitute one of the five major causes of maternal morbidity and mortality in obstetric practice,
The objective of the proposed minimal-risk, non-interventional retrospective (January 2012 onwards) as well as prospective, cross-sectional observational study (i.e., NCCU Research Repository) is to better understand the common pathophysiological pathways of life-threatening neurological illnesses,
Background
Cerebral arteriovenous malformations consist of tangled blood vessels forming a so-called nidus which connects arteries to veins without the interposition of a capillary bed. Due to subsequent structural changes of draining veins within the nidus, patients are at risk of cerebral
Scientific background:
Preeclampsia is an idiopathic maternal, multi organ, specific pregnancy disorder, associated with significant maternal and perinatal morbidity and mortality. Preeclampsia complicates approximately 2-8% of all pregnancies. The disorder is characterized by new-onset of
Study Methods:
Study Population A 60 adult (aged >18 years) patients were included with a diagnosis of acute thromboembolic ischemic stroke within 48 hours after onset, according to clinical picture and imaging findings by brain computed tomography (CT) without evidence of hemorrhage, upon admission
INTRODUCTION
There are very few treatment options for patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage, a type of hemorrhagic stroke especially prevalent among Chinese, during the acute phase. Blood clot expansion in the brain (hematoma expansion; HE) is one of the most significant predictors for
Cortical spreading depolarizations (CSD) are massive events which recently have been observed in many types of acute brain injury and likely lead to expansion of injury. These "brain tsunamis" are unlike any other type of brain electrical event (such as seizures or normal neuronal transmission) in
Background
The investigators in the Prolyse in Acute Cerebral Thromboembolism (PROACT) II study found that intra-arterial thrombolysis (IAT) with prourokinase within 6 hours after onset of symptoms was beneficial in patients with middle cerebral artery (MCA) occlusion. Intra-arterial thrombolysis
Background and Objectives:
Management of acute ischemic stroke consists of thrombolytic drugs aiming at opening occluded vessels. Tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) is the only drug approved by the FDA (1, 2). The use of TPA is significantly limited by a relatively narrow therapeutic window of up to
