There is a potential connection between a diagnosis of certain gastrointestinal (GI) syndromes and the formation and rupture of intracranial (brain) aneurysms, according to research presented today at the Society of NeuroInterventional Surgery's (SNIS) 2
The rupture of a brain aneurysm causes bleeding in the subarachnoid space. This is known as aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). We evaluated the association of apolipoprotein E (APOE) polymorphism and the risk of aSAH in a South Indian population. The study was performed on 200 subjects ...
Among people who had aneurysms (weakened areas in brain blood vessels), the risk of developing a mental health condition was higher than among peers without an aneurysm. The highest risk was seen in patients younger than age 40, according to researchpublishedinStroke. An unruptured intracranial an...
A cerebral aneurysm (also called a brain aneurysm) is a weak or thin spot on an artery in the brain that balloons out and fills with blood. The bulging aneurysm can put pressure on the nerves or brain tissue. It may also burst or rupture, spilling blood into the surrounding tissue (call...
Insomnia could be a potential risk factor for brain bleeding from a ruptured aneurysm, along with high blood pressure and smoking, the results of a new study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association show. “The association between insomnia and intracranial aneurysm has not been ...
The presence of a patent aneurysm was significantly associated with an increased rehemorrhage risk after SRS (annual hemorrhage rate, 6.4%) compared with patients with a clipped or embolized aneurysm (annual hemorrhage rate, 0.8%; P=0.033).When an aneurysm is identified in patients with ...
ms will never rupture, it is important to identify risk factors for rupture in order to tailor treatment to the an- eurysms that are at risk of rupturing. Risk factors identi- fied thus far are the size and site of the aneurysm, and age, gender and ethnicity of the patient [2] . ...
What are the causes of myocardial ischemia? How does ischemic heart disease cause heart failure? How does tricuspid regurgitation cause pulmonary hypertension? How does myocarditis cause dilated cardiomyopathy? What are the symptoms of a brain aneurysm?
Admission risk factors for cerebral vasospasm in ruptured brain arteriovenous malformations: An observational study Introduction Cerebral vasospasm is a well-documented complication of aneurismal subarachnoid hemorrhage but has not been extensively studied in brain arter...

Perianeurysmal brain edema was defined as high signal intensity on FLAIR images around the aneurysm not corresponding to an arterial territory. Patients with and without perianeurysmal edema were compared using a logistic regression model to identify predictors of perianeurysmal edema. Perianeurysmal ...
