Abstract

In ischaemic stroke, thrombolytic drugs speed the recanalisation of intracerebral arteries. The effects of aspirin are not known. A trial was conducted to determine whether, separately or together, streptokinase and aspirin have clinical benefits in acute ischaemic stroke similar to those in acute myocardial infarction. 622 patients with acute ischaemic stroke within 6 hours of symptom onset were randomised with a 2x2 factorial design to (i) a 1-hour intravenous infusion of 1 . 5 MU streptokinase, (ii) 300 mg/day buffered aspirin for 10 days, (iii) both active treatments, or (iv) neither. Early results raised a question whether the trial should be continued. Streptokinase (alone or with aspirin) was associated with an excess of 10-day case fatality (odds ratio 2 . 7; 95% confidence interval 1 . 7-4 . 3; 2p

Abstract

From measurements of maximum and minimum motor nerve propagation velocity and neuronal excitability we conclude that there is a functional loss of motor units and distal nerve "dying back" in persons affected with unilateral acute cerebral vascular lesions. The study also suggests that transynaptic degeneration affects the lower motor neurone function on both sides. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

12. Menstrual migraine.

Author

Abstract

An association between migraine and menstruation can be ascertained by use of a diary for a minimum of three cycles. The pathophysiological and clinical peculiarities of menstrual migraine indicate that its management should differ from that of non-menstrual migraine. MAIDS or migraine-specific medications (e.g. triptans) are often effective for the acute management of menstrual migraine. Preventive treatment is indicated when the attacks are long-lasting, severe and disabling and do not respond to acute treatments. Short-term prophylaxis (at the time of headache vulnerability) employs standard drugs such as magnesium, ergotamine or NSAIDs; triptans are currently being evaluated for short-term prophylaxis. If severe menstrual migraine attacks cannot be controlled by these, hormone therapy (percutaneous or transdermal estrogen) may be indicated. Antiestrogen agents (danazol, tamoxifen) are indicated only in rare resistant cases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract

Migraine, particularly migraine with aura (MA), may be a risk factor for ischemic stroke (IS). The reasons for this association are unknown. We investigated the presence of genetic abnormalities of the protein C system in 83 MA patients, 31 IS patients, and 124 healthy controls, all aged under 45 years. We found an increased frequency of activated protein C resistance due to Arg506Gln factor V mutation, and of protein S deficiency in both disorders, with figures higher than those reported in the general population and significantly different from those found in controls. These prothrombotic genetic abnormalities may be shared risk factors in IS and MA, and may play a role in increasing the risk of cerebrovascular disease in migraineurs.

14. Thiopental efficacy in phenobarbital-resistant neonatal seizures.

Abstract

The successful treatment with thiopental (10 mg/kg, i.v.) of 9 severely asphyxiated newborns, under artificial ventilation, with neonatal seizures resistant to phenobarbital, is reported in this pilot study. The clinical and electroencephalogram control of seizures was prompt and resolute. No adverse effect on cardiovascular function (heart rate, blood pressure) was observed. The terminal half-life of thiopental averaged 9 h, the total plasma clearance 0.20 l/h/kg, and the steady-state volume of distribution 3.6 l/h/kg. The kinetic profile of the drug compared to phenobarbital and phenytoin in newborns suggests that its action is quicker and shorter lasting. Thus, from these findings, thiopental may offer a useful and handy approach for the safe and effective treatment of phenobarbital-resistant neonatal seizures.
