- Evaluation of cerebral hemodynamics by transcranial Doppler ultrasonography and its correlation with intracranial pressure in an animal model of intracranial hypertension(2022) SOARES, Matheus Schmidt; ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira de; BRASIL, Sergio; DE-LIMA-OLIVEIRA, Marcelo; BELON, Alessandro Rodrigo; BOR-SENG-SHU, Edson; NOGUEIRA, Ricardo de Carvalho; GODOY, Daniel Agustin; PAIVA, Wellingson SilvaBackground: Transcranial Doppler has been tested in the evaluation of cerebral hemodynamics as a non-invasive assessment of intracranial pressure (ICP), but there is controversy in the literature about its actual benefit and usefulness in this situation. Objective: To investigate cerebral blood flow assessed by Doppler technique and correlate with the variations of the ICP in the acute phase of intracranial hypertension in an animal model. Methods:An experimental animal model of intracranial hypertension was used. The experiment consisted of two groups of animals in which intracranial balloons were implanted and inflated with 4 mL (A) and 7 mL (B) for controlled simulation of different volumes of hematoma. The values of ICP and Doppler parameters (systolic [FVs], diastolic [FVd], and mean [FVm] cerebral blood flow velocities and pulsatility index [PI]) were collected during the entire procedure (before and during hematoma simulations and venous hypertonic saline infusion intervention). Comparisons between Doppler parameters and ICP monitoring were performed. Results: Twenty pigs were studied, 10 in group A and 10 in group B. A significant correlation between PI and ICP was obtained, especially shortly after abrupt elevation of ICP. There was no correlation between ICP and FVs, FVd or FVm separately. There was also no significant change in ICP after intravenous infusion of hypertonic saline solution. Conclusions:These results demonstrate the potential of PI as a parameter for the evaluation of patients with suspected ICP elevation.
- Assessing ultrasonographic optic nerve sheath diameter in animal model with anesthesia regimens(2022) AZEVEDO, Maira de Robertis; DE-LIMA-OLIVEIRA, Marcelo; BELON, Alessandro Rodrigo; BRASIL, Sergio; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; PAIVA, Wellingson Silva; BOR-SENG-SHU, EdsonPurpose: To determine the normal optical nerve sheath (ONS) diameter ultrasonography (ONSUS) and evaluate the possible effects of drugs on ONS diameter during anesthetic induction in healthy pigs. Methods: Healthy piglets were divided into three groups: a control group, that received xylazine and ketamine (X/K); other that received xylazine, ketamine and propofol (X/K/P); and a third group that received xylazine, ketamine, and thiopental (X/K/T). The sheath diameter was assessed by ultrasonography calculating the average of three measurements of each eye from the left and right sides. Results: 118 animals were anesthetized (49 X/K 33 X/K/P and 39 X/K/T). Mean ONS sizes on both sides in each group were 0.394 +/- 0.048 (X/K), 0.407 +/- 0.029 (X/K/P) and 0.378 +/- 0.042 cm (X/K/T) (medians of 0.400, 0.405 and 0.389, respectively). The ONS diameter varied from 0.287-0.512 cm (mean of 0.302 +/- 0.039 cm). For group X/K, the mean diameter was 0.394 +/- 0.048 cm. Significant differences in ONS sizes between the groups P and T (X/K/P > X/K/T, p = 0.003) were found. No statistically significant differences were detected when other groups were compared (X/K = X/K/P, p = 0.302; X/K = X/K/T, p = 0.294). Conclusion: Sedation with thiopental lead to significative ONS diameter reduction in comparison with propofol. ONSUS may be useful to evaluate responses to thiopental administration.
- Cerebral Vasculopathy in Children With Sickle Cell Disease in an Amazonian Population(2022) TOBELEM, Felipe Lima Alcolumbre; ANDRADE, Guilherme Augusto Lira Ribeiro de; PASCHOAL, Joelma Karin Sagica Fernandes; CARDOSO, Maria do Socorro de Oliveira; TRINDADE, Saide Maria Sarmento; PASCHOAL, Eric Homero Albuquerque; PASCHOAL-JR, Fernando M.; BOR-SENG-SHU, EdsonIntroduction: Sickle cell disease is the most prevalent hereditary disease in the country. The aim of this study was to use transcranial Doppler as a screening method for identifying cerebral vasculopathy in children with sickle cell disease. Methods: An epidemiologic, descriptive, and cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients aged 2-16 years with sickle cell disease and followed at a neurology referral service between January 2014 and March 2020 underwent transcranial Doppler and complementary examinations to screen for cerebral vasculopathy. Results: Screening and confirmatory examinations diagnosed 14 of 164 patients (8.5%) with cerebral vasculopathy. Regarding stroke risk, as measured by cerebral blood flow velocity, 2 of 14 patients (14.2%) were classified as conditional risk (170-199 cm/s) and 12 of 14 (85.7%) as high risk of stroke. Conclusion: Complementary examinations should be performed in all patients with changes on transcranial Doppler to confirm cerebral vasculopathy. Further studies, particularly genetic, are needed to better understand the relationship between sickle cell disease and cerebral vasculopathy.
- Combined assessment by transcranial sonography and Sniffin' Sticks test has a similar diagnostic accuracy compared to brain SPECT for Parkinson's disease diagnosis.(2022) ALMEIDA, Kelson James; BOR-SENG-SHU, Edson; PEDROSO, Jose Luiz; FELICIO, Andre Carvalho; DE-LIMA-OLIVEIRA, Marcelo; BARSOTTINI, Orlando Graziani Povoas; NOGUEIRA, Ricardo de Carvalho; PASCHOAL-JUNIOR, Fernando Mendes; BORGES, Vanderci; BATISTA, Ilza Rosa; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FERRAZ, Henrique Ballalai; WALTER, UweObjectives: This study aimed to investigate the accuracy of TCS combined with the Sniffin' sticks olfactory test (SST-16) for differentiation between idiopathic PD patients and healthy controls compared to that of 99 mTc-TRODAT-1 SPECT (TRODAT). Methods: A cross-sectional study included PD patients diagnosed in accordance with United Kingdom PD Society Brain Bank criteria and a control group of age and sex-matched healthy subjects. All patients were examined by a movement disorder specialist and underwent brain SPECT using TRODAT, TCS examination and SST-16 test. Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curves were used to calculate cut-off points for TCS, striatal TRODAT binding potentials and SST-16. The area under the ROC curve determined the diagnostic accuracy of the method. Results: Twenty patients with PD (13 males and 7 females) and nine healthy subjects were included. Median age of PD onset was 56.5 years with median disease duration of 5 years. A larger substantia nigra (SN) echogenic area was observed in the PD group (p = 0.013). SN echogenic area cut-off point of 0.22 cm2 was obtained from a ROC curve for PD diagnosis. Considering this cut-off point, TCS diagnostic accuracy was estimated at 79.2% for PD diagnosis. The cut-off value of 0.90 for striatal TRODAT binding was associated with 99% diagnostic accuracy for the diagnosis of PD. SST-16 values equal or less than 9 points showed an 85.8% diagnostic accuracy for PD diagnosis. Combination of both SST-16 and TCS improved the diagnostic accuracy to 95% for PD diagnosis. Conclusion: Combined SST-16 and TCS assessment was indicated as accurate for distinguishing PD patients from healthy controls. The diagnostic accuracy of TCS combined with SST-16 for differentiation between idiopathic PD patients and healthy controls is similar to that of SPECT TRODAT.
