Clinical significance of traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage.

The five preferences for post-traumatic SAH

Acute traumatic brain injury is a worldwide public health crisis. Post-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a finding that is present at a frequency of 40% according to data from American TCDB (1,2). Among the mechanisms that have been implicated as causes of post-traumatic SAH is the cortical bleeding through the subarachnoid space. It is estimated that the incidence of post-traumatic SA...

The Prevalence and Properties of Intracranial Vascular Abnormalities in CT Angiography of Patients with Non-traumatic Intracranial Hemorrhage

Introduction:Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is divided into two traumatic and non-traumatic categories. The present study sought to investigate the anatomical properties of non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage in Kerman, Iran. Method:A total of 305 non-traumatic ICH cases were chosen in Shafa medical center. Data from patients’ files and CT scan images, including demographic factors and type o...

Factors Affecting the Outcome in Traumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Objective: To define risk factors affecting the outcome in traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage. Material and Methods: Forty-four patients with traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage were evaluated retrospectively. They were divided into three groups according to their age: elderly (≥65 years), adult (1664 years), and children (<16 years). The clinical picture on admission was evaluated using the Glasg...

Levels in stroke patients of CSF astroprotein, an astrocyte-specific cerebroprotein.

Astroprotein (an astrocyte-specific cerebroprotein) levels in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) were determined by radioimmunoassay in 47 stroke patients. (Astroprotein is immunologically identical to glial fibrillary acidic protein.) Astroprotein levels in CSF increased markedly in acute cases of intracerebral hemorrhage and slightly to moderately in some acute cases of subarachnoid hemorrhage and cer...
