Glyburide is associated with attenuated vasogenic edema in stroke patients.
BACKGROUND Brain edema is a serious complication of ischemic stroke that can lead to secondary neurological deterioration and death. Glyburide is reported to prevent brain swelling in preclinical rodent models of ischemic stroke through inhibition of a non-selective channel composed of sulfonylurea receptor 1 and transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily M member 4. However, the rel...
متن کاملIschemic edema in stroke.
Thirteen patients with stroke and one with TIA had repeated examinations with computed tomography (CT) of the head, examination of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) for adenylate kinase, glutathione, lactate, and albumin and clinical evaluations during the flrst fortnight after onset. In 9 patients with cerebral infarction edema shown on the CT scans was maximal on days 2-5, after which it diminish...
متن کاملVasogenic Brain Edema Formation
Brain edema (BE) research lacks quantitative regional methods. We modified the method of Pappius and McCann (1969), who used radioactive iodinated P serum albumin (R1SA) as a label for vasogenic BE fluid. To correct for intravascular plasma volume we used Cr^ labelled red blood cells and calculated equivalent extravascular plasma volume (EVPV). The modified RISA method was compared with a stand...
متن کاملAtrial fibrillation is not uncommon among patients with ischemic stroke and transient ischemic stroke in China
BACKGROUND Atrial fibrillation (AF) is reported to be a less frequent cause of ischemic stroke in China than in Europe and North America, but it is not clear whether this is due to underestimation. Our aim was to define the true frequency of AF-associated stroke, to determine the yield of 6-day Holter ECG to detect AF in Chinese stroke patients, and to elucidate predictors of newly detected AF....
