Accurate definition and better understanding of the mechanisms of stroke are crucial as this will guide the effective care and therapy. In this paper, we review the previous basic and clinical researches on the causes or mechanisms of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases (ICVD) and interpret the correlation between embolism and hypoperfusion based on vascular stenosis and arterial intimal lesions. It was suggested that if there is no embolus (dynamic or in situ emboli), there might be no cerebral infarction. Three kinds of different clinical outcomes of TIA were theoretically interpreted based on its mechanisms. We suppose that there is a correlation between embolism and hypoperfusion, and which mechanisms (hypoperfusion or hypoperfusion induced microemboli) playing the dominant role in each type of ICVD depends on the unique background of arterial intimal lesions (the vulnerability of vessels). That is to say, the vulnerability of vessels is involved in the role of embolism and hypoperfusion in the mechanisms of ischemic cerebrovascular diseases. This inference might enrich and provide better understandings for the underlying etiologies of ischemic cerebrovascular events.

Inflammation was signs of pathological or abnormality in tissue to give an alert as a trouble signal to the system. Therapeutic using NSAIDs has some side effects. This research explored the potential role of chlorogenic acid as natural therapeutic compound to inhibit the inflammation target such as COX-2 by interaction model. The research method used in this study was the molecular docking approach, which binds ligand and protein. Protein data provided by Protein Data Bank (ID: 6cox) while, chlorogenic acid obtain from PubChem (CID: 1794427). We docked COX-2 and chlorogenic acid using Hex 8.0.0. Visualization and analysis of the molecular interactions of chlorogenic acid and COX-2 conducted by the Discovery Studio Client 4.1 software. Chlorogenic acid has a high permeability and is easily absorbed based on five Lipinski Rule. Interestingly, we found Fifteen amino acid was binding with chlorogenic acid that formed by hydrogen bond and van der Waals.The interaction between ligand-protein results in energy binding -327.59cal/mol. Chlorogenic acid has a potential role to inhibit inflammation pathway by inhibiting COX-2. We predicted chlorogenic acid has a potential as therapy anti-inflammatory to suppress COX-2 as mediator inflammation.

✓ A consecutive series of 48 adult patients with a chronic subdural hematoma is reported. These patients were treated according to a protocol consisting of a sequence of conventional surgical procedures ranging from simple burr-hole drainage to craniotomy and subdural membranectomy. Seven patients (15%) continued to demonstrate severe neurological dysfunction, or suffered acute neurological deterioration after completion of this protocol. However, after undergoing excision of the cranial vault overlying the hematoma site, six of these seven patients demonstrated a significant clinical improvement. Based on analysis of these seven cases, the authors suggest that craniectomy be considered in those patients who suffer a symptomatic reaccumulation of subdural fluid following craniotomy and membranectomy, or who demonstrate further neurological deterioration as a result of cerebral swelling subjacent to the hematoma site. However, this procedure probably has no efficacy once extensive cerebral infarction has occurred.

Background and Purpose: Achieving complete revascularization after a single pass of a mechanical thrombectomy device (first pass effect [FPE]) is associated with good clinical outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion. We assessed patient characteristics, outcomes, and predictors of FPE among a large real-world cohort of patients (Systematic Evaluation of Patients Treated with Stroke Devices for Acute Ischemic Stroke registry). Methods: Demographics, clinical outcomes, and procedural characteristics were analyzed among patients in whom FPE (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2c/3 after first pass) was achieved versus those requiring multiple passes (MP). Modified FPE and modified MP included patients achieving modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2B-3. Primary outcomes included 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score and mortality. Results: Among 984 Systematic Evaluation of Patients Treated with Stroke Devices for Acute Ischemic Stroke patients, 930 had complete 90-day follow-up. FPE was achieved in 40.5% (377/930) of patients and MP in 20.0% (186/930). Baseline characteristics were similar across all groups. The FPE group had fewer internal carotid artery occlusions compared with MP ( P =0.029). The FPE group had faster puncture to recanalization time ( P ≤0.001), higher rates of 90-day mRS score of 0 to 1 (52.6% versus 38.6%, P =0.003), mRS score of 0 to 2 (65.4% versus 52.0%, P =0.003), and lower 90-day mortality compared with the MP group (12.0% versus 18.7%, P =0.038). Similarly, compared with modified MP patients, the modified FPE group had fewer internal carotid artery occlusions ( P =0.004), faster puncture to recanalization time ( P ≤0.001), and higher rates of 90-day mRS score of 0 to 1 ( P =0.002) and mRS score of 0 to 2 ( P =0.003). Conclusions: Our findings demonstrate that FPE and modified FPE are associated with superior clinical outcomes.
