- TCD assessment in fulminant hepatic failure: Improvements in cerebral autoregulation after liver transplantation(2024) PASCHOAL-JR, Fernando M.; NOGUEIRA, Ricardo C.; RONCONI, Karla de Almeida Lins; OLIVEIRA, Marcelo de Lima; ALMEIDA, Kelson James; ROCHA, Ivana Schmidtbauer; PASCHOAL, Eric Homero Albuquerque; PASCHOAL, Joelma Karin Sagica Fernandes; D'ALBUQUERQUE, Luiz Augusto Carneiro; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; PANERAI, Ronney B.; BOR-SENG-SHU, EdsonIntroduction and Objectives: Acute liver failure, also known as fulminant hepatic failure (FHF), includes a spectrum of clinical entities characterized by acute liver injury, severe hepatocellular dysfunction and hepatic encephalopathy. The objective of this study was to assess cerebral autoregulation (CA) in 25 patients (19 female) with FHF and to follow up seventeen of these patients before and after liver transplantation.Patients and Methods: The mean age was 33.8 years (range 14-56, SD 13.1 years). Cerebral hemodynamics was assessed by transcranial Doppler (TCD) bilateral recordings of cerebral blood velocity (CBv) in the middle cerebral arteries (MCA).Results: CA was assessed based on the static CA index (SCAI), reflecting the effects of a 20-30 mmHg increase in mean arterial blood pressure on CBv induced with norepinephrine infusion. SCAI was estimated at four time points: pretransplant and on the 1st, 2nd and 3rd posttransplant days showing a significant difference between pre-and posttransplant SCAI (p = 0.005). SCAI peaked on the third posttransplant day (p = 0.006). Categorical analysis of SCAI showed that for most patients, CA was reestablished on the second day post-transplant (SCAI > 0.6).Conclusions: These results suggest that CA impairment pretransplant and on the 1st day posttransplant was re-established at 48-72 h after transplantation. These findings can help to improve the management of this patient group during these specific phases, thereby avoiding neurological complications, such as brain swelling and intracranial hypertension.(c) 2023 Fundacion Clinica Medica Sur, A.C.
- Homocysteine serum levels in patients with ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms: a case-control study(2024) TELLES, Joao Paulo Mota; ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; YAMAKI, Vitor Nagai; RABELO, Nicollas Nunes; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaBackground There is very few data regarding homocysteine's influence on the formation and rupture of intracranial aneurysms. Objective To compare homocysteine levels between patients with ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms, and to evaluate possible influences of this molecule on vasospasm and functional outcomes. Methods This is a retrospective, case-control study. We evaluated homocysteinemia differences between patients with ruptured and unruptured aneurysms; and the association of homocysteine levels with vasospasm and functional outcomes. Logistic regressions were performed. Results A total of 348 participants were included: 114 (32.8%) with previous aneurysm rupture and 234 (67.2%) with unruptured aneurysms. Median homocysteine was 10.75 mu mol/L (IQR = 4.59) in patients with ruptured aneurysms and 11.5 mu mol/L (IQR = 5.84) in patients with unruptured aneurysms. No significant association was detected between homocysteine levels and rupture status (OR = 0.99, 95% CI = 0.96-1.04). Neither mild (>15 mu mol/L; OR = 1.25, 95% CI 0.32-4.12) nor moderate (>30 mu mol/L; OR = 1.0, 95% CI = 0.54-1.81) hyperhomocysteinemia demonstrated significant correlations with ruptured aneurysms. Neither univariate (OR = 0.86; 95% CI 0.71-1.0) nor multivariable age-adjusted (OR = 0.91; 95% CI = 0.75-1.05) models evidenced an association between homocysteine levels and vasospasm. Homocysteinemia did not influence excellent functional outcomes at 6 months (mRS <= 1) (OR = 1.04; 95% CI = 0.94-1.16). Conclusion There were no differences regarding homocysteinemia between patients with ruptured and unruptured intracranial aneurysms. In patients with ruptured aneurysms, homocysteinemia was not associated with vasospasm or functional outcomes.
- Repercussions of the Emergency neurological life support on scientific literature: a bibliometric study(2024) RAMOS, Miguel Bertelli; RECH, Matheus Machado; TELLES, Joao Paulo Mota; MORAES, Willian Medeiros; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaBackground In 2012, the Neurocritical Care Society launched a compilation of protocols regarding the core issues that should be addressed within the first hours of neurological emergencies - the Emergency neurological life support (ENLS). Objective We aim to evaluate this repercussion through a bibliometric analysis. Methods We searched Scopus on October 2022 for articles mentioning ENLS. The following variables were obtained: number of citations; number of citations per year; number of publications per year; year of publication; research type; research subtype; country of corresponding author and its income category and world region; journal of publication and its 5-year impact factor (IF); and section where ENLS appeared. Results After applying eligibility criteria, we retrieved 421 articles, published from 2012 to 2022. The mean number of citations per article was 17.46 (95% Confidence Interval (CI) = 8.20-26.72), while the mean number of citations per year per article was 4.05 (95% CI = 2.50-5.61). The mean destiny journal 5-year IF was 5.141 (95% CI = 4.189-6.093). The majority of articles were secondary research (57.48%; n = 242/421) of which most were narrative reviews (71.90%; n = 174/242). High-Income countries were the most prominent (80.05%; n = 337/421 articles). There were no papers from low-income countries. There were no trials or systematic reviews from middle-income countries. Conclusion Although still low, the number of publications mentioning ENLS is increasing. Articles were mainly published in journals of intensive care medicine, neurology, neurosurgery, and emergency medicine. Most articles were published by authors from high-income countries. The majority of papers were secondary research, with narrative review as the most frequent subtype.
- New perspectives on assessment and understanding of the patient with cranial bone defect: a morphometric and cerebral radiodensity assessment(2024) OLIVEIRA, Arthur Maynart Pereira; ANDRADE, Almir Ferreira De; PIPEK, Leonardo Zumerkorn; IACCARINO, Corrado; RUBIANO, Andres M.; AMORIM, Robson Luis; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; PAIVA, Wellingson SilvaBackground Skull defects after decompressive craniectomy (DC) cause physiological changes in brain function and patients can have neurologic symptoms after the surgery. The objective of this study is to evaluate whether there are morphometric changes in the cortical surface and radiodensity of brain tissue in patients undergoing cranioplasty and whether those variables are correlated with neurological prognosis.Methods This is a prospective cohort with 30 patients who were submitted to cranioplasty and followed for 6 months. Patients underwent simple head CT before and after cranioplasty for morphometric and cerebral radiodensity assessment. A complete neurological exam with Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE), modified Rankin Scale, and the Barthel Index was performed to assess neurological prognosis.Results There was an improvement in all symptoms of the syndrome of the trephined, specifically for headache (p = 0.004) and intolerance changing head position (p = 0.016). Muscle strength contralateral to bone defect side also improved (p = 0.02). Midline shift of intracranial structures decreased after surgery (p = 0.004). The Anterior Distance Difference (ADif) and Posterior Distance Difference (PDif) were used to assess morphometric changes and varied significantly after surgery. PDif was weakly correlated with MMSE (p = 0.03; r = -0.4) and Barthel index (p = 0.035; r = -0.39). The ratio between the radiodensities of gray matter and white matter (GWR) was used to assess cerebral radiodensity and was also correlated with MMSE (p = 0.041; r = -0.37).Conclusion Morphological anatomy and radiodensity of the cerebral cortex can be used as a tool to assess neurological prognosis after DC.
- Cavernous carotid aneurysms do not influence the occurrence of upstream ipsilateral aneurysm(2024) ROSI JUNIOR, Jefferson; SANTOS, Alexandra Gomes dos; SOLLA, Davi Jorge Fontoura; RABELO, Nicollas Nunes; SILVA, Saul Almeida da; IGLESIO, Ricardo Ferrareto; CALDAS, Jose Guillherme Mendes Pereira; TEIXEIRA, Manoel Jacobsen; FIGUEIREDO, Eberval GadelhaObjective Cavernous carotid aneurysms (CCA) comprehend around 5% of all intracranial aneurysms. The main risk factors for an intracranial aneurysm seem not to influence the incidence of CCAs. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of CCAs and the presence of upstream aneurysms. Methods 1403 patients, admitted in Hospital das Clinicas de Sao Paulo, Brazil, from September 2009 to August 2018, enrolled this study. Diagnosis was performed with Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA). Upstream aneurysm was defined as an intracranial aneurysm on anterior cerebral circulation, ipsilateral to the CCA (if present) or crossing the midline (e.g. anterior communicating artery). Results 177 individuals were diagnosed with CCA (12.6% of the population), totalizing 225 aneurysms (10% of the total number of aneurysms, 2253). No association was found between CCA and UA (p= .090, OR: 1.323, 95% CI: 0.957-1.828). Studying only patients with CCA, multivariable analysis showed smoking as the only factor associated with UA (p= .010, OR: 0.436, 95% CI: 0.232-0.821). Conclusions Cavernous carotid aneurysms were present in 12% of our population, mostly in female. They seem to be independent of the modifiable risk factors already associated with intracranial aneurysms. A higher frequency of mirror aneurysms was seen in this location. CCA did not influence the presence of ipsilateral and anterior circulation aneurysms.
