OBJECTIVE
Several studies have demonstrated an association between hypocholesterolemia and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). We tested the hypothesis that hypercholesterolemia or use of HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statin) agents, or both, are associated with ICH.
METHODS
This study was part of the
OBJECTIVE
Contrary to some clinical belief, there were quite a few studies regarding animal models of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) in vivo suggesting that prior use of statins may improve outcome after ICH. This study reports the effect of 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG CoA) reductase
5α-reductase inhibitors (5α-RIs), including finasteride and dutasteride, are commonly used medical therapies for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Many studies reported that preoperative 5α-RI had impact on intraoperative haemorrhage during surgery for BPH, but it was still in controversial. So,
BACKGROUND
Transfusion of blood remains the gold standard for fluid resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock. Hemoglobin (Hb) within the red blood cell transports oxygen and modulates nitric oxide (NO) through NO scavenging and nitrite reductase.
OBJECTIVE
This study was designed to examine the effects
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) and the related medical problems are a major burden as health care costs and as a cause of patient morbidity. The introduction of medical therapy largely offered an alternative to surgical therapy, and these medications have been linked with multiple positive
The condition was studied of the brain monooxigenase system (MOS) in experimental subarachnoidal hemorrhage in rats. The results show that the above hemorrhage leads to a significant depression of activity of brain MOS enzymes (cytochrome P-450, NADPN-cytochrome C-reductase). Depression of activity
Reticulocytosis in rats was induced by repetitive bleeding. Both in the vitro and the in vivo studies showed that the detected reductive speed of methemoglobin of the bleeding group was faster than that of the control group at all time intervals. At the same time, the NADH-cytochrome b5
OBJECTIVE
In addition to their lipid lowering effects, HMG-CoA reductase inhibitors (statins) have been shown to exert antithrombotic effects through downregulation of the coagulation cascade. Because statin use is widespread, it is important to understand the impact of these drugs on blood loss
BACKGROUND
3-Hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl Co-A reductase inhibitors (HMG Co-A reductase inhibitors, statins) are commonly used medications for the control of serum cholesterol. Recent data suggests that these medications also modify the inflammatory pathways in sepsis, septic shock, and hemorrhagic
Elevated plasma total homocysteine (HCY) level is a risk factor for coronary heart disease and ischemic stroke. We investigated relationships between polymorphisms in the methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene, and plasma levels of HCY and folate in patients of Mongolian races who suffered
This retrospective case series describes the association between ocular hemorrhage and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl conenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins). The clinical characteristics of 95 case reports submitted to the World Health Organization (WHO), the Food and Drug Administration,
The present study was designed to evaluate the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and thioredoxin reductase 1 (TrxR1) in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) with and without intratumoral hemorrhage. Surgically resected human GBM samples from 20
Thrombolysis-induced haemorrhagic transformation is the most challenging preventable complication in thrombolytic therapy. This condition is often associated with poor functional outcome and long-term disease burden. Statins, or 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors,
OBJECTIVE
It is still controversial whether elevated plasma homocysteine and the C677T polymorphism of methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) gene are risk factors for stroke. The aim of the present study was to investigate the association between the 2 factors and stroke in Chinese in a large
Methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphism (C677T, A1298C) has been implicated in increased plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels. The present study was designed to investigate the association between MTHFR polymorphism and increased Hcy levels in subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) patients. A
