Summary: Higher baseline FGF23 levels were significantly associated with incident intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), particularly in lobar and non-lobar ICH. FGF23 was also significantly associated with fatal ICH, ICH with large volume, and ICH with poor functional outcome. Further studies are needed to determine if this association is causal.

Summary: This study found that both OAC-related ICH and antiplatelet-related ICH had worse 90-day mortality outcomes compared to nonantithrombotic ICH. Antiplatelet-related ICH is common and associated with poor clinical outcomes, warranting further research to determine appropriate clinical management.

Summary: Elevated blood pressure is highly prevalent among stroke survivors in China, regardless of age, sex, and region. It contributes significantly to cardiovascular mortality in stroke survivors, particularly in young and middle-aged patients. National strategies are needed to address the burden of stroke related to elevated blood pressure in China.

Summary: The study found that obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is associated with the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Cases with OSA were more likely to be male and have hypertension, heart disease, hyperlipidemia, and higher body mass index compared to those without OSA. Logistic regression analysis showed that OSA is a risk factor for ICH.

Summary: This study aimed to describe the prevalence, underlying causes, and outcomes of cerebral edema in hospitalized children. The results showed that cerebral edema is uncommon but has a high mortality rate in hospitalized children in the United States. Stroke and anoxic brain injury are the two most common causes of cerebral edema in these children. Anoxic brain injury has the highest mortality, while cerebral edema associated with central nervous system malignancy or diabetic ketoacidosis has a lower mortality rate.

Summary: Non-contrast computed tomography (NCCT) markers are reliable predictors for predicting parenchymal hematoma expansion in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). This study investigates whether NCCT features can also identify patients at risk of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) growth.

Summary: Hemorrhagic stroke is the deadliest form of stroke and includes the subtypes of intracerebral hemorrhage and subarachnoid hemorrhage. Inflammatory immune responses play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of these types of stroke, both affecting tissue recovery and injury. Understanding these processes can lead to the development of effective therapeutic strategies.

Summary: This study found that a centralized approach to ICH management and the establishment of a dedicated ICH center in a New York City hospital system increased access to specialist services, including MIS. Most patients undergoing MIS were transferred from outside hospitals, highlighting the need for additional studies and descriptions of experiences to further elucidate the impact of and best protocols for the IHT of ICH patients.

Summary: In this large epidemiological study, the incidence of CVT was found to be comparable to population-based studies after 2000. The incidence of CVT increased among women over time. In-hospital CFR was low but higher in patients with concomitant ICH, with age, ICH, and a high number of comorbidities being independent predictors of in-hospital mortality.

Summary: Blood pressure is an important factor in managing intracerebral hemorrhage and aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. However, there are controversies surrounding the management of blood pressure for these conditions. Current research involves analyzing patient data to determine the strength and direction of blood pressure changes and provide recommendations for clinical practice and future research.

Summary: Acute platelet transfusion after intracerebral hemorrhage that is ABO-incompatible may lead to poorer platelet recovery and neurological outcomes compared to ABO-compatible transfusions. Further research into the underlying mechanisms is needed to better understand these observations.

Summary: Vascular malformations are caused by increased signaling through the PI3K-mTOR pathway and loss of function of the CCM complex, which are found in the majority of human CCMs. Using mouse models, researchers discovered that the formation of CCMs can be effectively blocked by the mTORC1 inhibitor rapamycin.

Summary: The study estimated the age- and sex-standardized incidence of hospitalization for reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) in US adults to be approximately 3 cases per million per year. Many patients with RCVS had concomitant neurologic diagnoses, including subarachnoid hemorrhage, ischemic stroke, and intracerebral hemorrhage.

Summary: The study found that the presence of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) is associated with smaller intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) volume and lower odds of hematoma expansion among patients with acute hemorrhage. The strength of this association increases with the number of CMBs, indicating potential prognostic significance of underlying cerebral small vessel disease after ICH.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate factors associated with intraventricular hemorrhage expansion and its impact on long-term outcomes. The authors found that acute hematoma characteristics, such as larger parenchymal volume, hematoma expansion, and thalamic intracerebral hemorrhage location, were associated with intraventricular hemorrhage expansion. Additionally, intraventricular hemorrhage expansion was associated with poor clinical outcomes. This study highlights the importance of optimizing hemostasis and preventing intraventricular hemorrhage expansion.

Summary: This study compared the safety of immediate EVD placement after the bolus administration of a factor Xa-inhibitor reversal agent versus after the infusion of the agent in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. The results showed no significant differences in the incidence of hemorrhage, mortality, length of hospital stay, and discharge modified Rankin Score between the two groups. Therefore, it may be considered to perform EVD placement immediately after the infusion of the reversal agent to shorten the treatment time.
