ECG Changes in Intracranial Hemorrhage

All About Cardiovascular System and Disorders

ECG Changes in Intracranial Hemorrhage ECG changes are fairly common in intracranial hemorrhage. Giant T inversions with QT interval prolongation may be seen in intracranial hemorrhage even without associated myocardial damage [1]. But the number of persons with lobar hemorrhage in that study was only 17%. Am Heart J.

Abstract WP236: Inflammartory score can predict the risk of hemorrhagic transformation after ischemic stroke

Stroke Journal

Background:A novel inflammatory score has been validated for hematoma expansion and poor outcomes in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage. Logistic regression models were used for exploring the association between inflammatory score and hemorrhagic transformation and poor outcomes.

Impact of Social Determinants of Health on Outcomes of Nontraumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage

Journal of the American Heart Association

BackgroundNontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) presents a significant health burden, yet the influence of social determinants of health on outcomes remains unclear. Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print. The role of the Social Deprivation Index (SDI) and adjusted gross income, stratified into tertiles, were assessed.

Lipid?Lowering Therapy and Risk of Hemorrhagic Stroke: A Systematic Review and Meta?Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials

Journal of the American Heart Association

We searched MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library up to July 2, 2021 and updated a meta‐analysis of cardiovascular statin trials published in 2012. Overall, we found a higher risk of hemorrhagic stroke for LDL‐C lowering, risk ratio (RR) 1.16 (95% CI, 1.01–1.32,P=0.03). Journal of the American Heart Association, Ahead of Print.

Abstract TP153: Etiology and Radiological Features of Pregnancy-Associated and Non-Pregnancy Associated Intracerebral Hemorrhage in Young Adults

Stroke Journal

Introduction:Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a major cause of maternal mortality, but its pathophysiology is not well characterized. Participants were identified from an internal stroke registry and through the ICHOP (Intracerebral Hemorrhage Outcomes Project) study.

Abstract 84: Impact of DOAC plasma levels on Hematoma Expansion in DOAC-associated intracerebral hemorrhage

Stroke Journal

Background:Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) are associated with an increased risk ofhematoma expansion (HE) in spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Stroke, Volume 56, Issue Suppl_1 , Page A84-A84, February 1, 2025. However, thecritical DOAC level influencing this risk remains unclear. vs. 19.516.6 ml; p=0.6) vs. 36.414.6
