    Abstract: The purpose of this research was to explore the underlying biological processes causing coronavirus disease 2019- (COVID-19-) related stroke. The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was utilized to obtain four COVID-19 datasets and two stroke datasets. Thereafter, we identified key modules via weighted gene co-expression network analysis, following which COVID-19- and stroke-related crucial modules were crossed to identify the common genes of COVID-19-related stroke. The common genes were intersected with the stroke-related hub genes screened via Cytoscape software to discover the critical genes associated with COVID-19-related stroke. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis for common genes associated with COVID-19-related stroke, and the Reactome database was used to annotate and visualize the pathways involved in the key genes. Two COVID-19-related crucial modules and one stroke-related crucial module were identified. Subsequently, the top five genes were screened as hub genes after visualizing the genes of stroke-related critical module using Cytoscape. By intersecting the COVID-19- and stroke-related crucial modules, 28 common genes for COVID-19-related stroke were identified. ITGA2B and ITGB3 have been further identified as crucial genes of COVID-19-related stroke. Functional enrichment analysis indicated that both ITGA2B and ITGB3 were involved in integrin signaling and the response to elevated platelet cytosolic Ca2+, thus regulating platelet activation, extracellular matrix- (ECM-) receptor interaction, the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and hematopoietic cell lineage. Therefore, platelet activation, ECM-receptor interaction, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, and hematopoietic cell lineage may represent the potential biological processes associated with COVID-19-related stroke, and ITGA2B and ITGB3 may be potential intervention targets for COVID-19-related stroke.

    Abstract: To investigate the clinical features, risk factors and underlying pathogenesis of cancer related subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Methods Clinical data of SAH in patients with active cancer from January 2010 to December 2020 at four centers were retrospectively reviewed. Patients with active cancer without SAH were matched to SAH patients with active cancer group. Logistic regression was applied to investigate the independent risk factors of SAH in patients with active cancer, after a 1:1 propensity score matching (PSM). A receiver operator characteristic curve was configured to calculate the optimal cut-off value of the joint predictive factor for cancer related SAH. Results A total of 82 SAH patients with active cancer and 309 patients with active cancer alone were included. Most SAH patients with cancer had poor outcomes, with 30-day mortality of 41.5%, and with 90-day mortality of 52.0%. The PSM yielded 75 pairs of study participants. Logistic regression revealed that a decrease in platelet and prolonged prothrombin time were the independent risk factors of cancer related SAH. In addition, receiver operator characteristic curve of the joint predictive factor showed the largest AUC of 0.8131, with cut-off value equaling to 11.719, with a sensitivity of 65.3% and specificity of 89.3%. Conclusion Patients with cancer related SAH often have poor outcomes. The decrease in platelet and prolonged prothrombin time are the independent risk factors of cancer related SAH, and the joint predictive factor with cutoff value equal to 11.719 should hence serve as a novel biomarker of cancer related SAH.

    Abstract: Some acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients still suffer from early neurological deterioration (END) after receiving intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), and these patients often have a poor prognosis. The purpose of our study is to observe the efficacy and safety of human urinary kallidinogenase (HUK) treatment in patients with END. Methods This was a retrospective analysis and 49 patients with END who met the inclusion criteria were divided into the observation group and the control group. All patients received routine treatment of AIS, while patients in the observation group were treated with HUK within 24 h after IVT and the other group without HUK. Results There were 24 patients in the observation group and 25 patients in the control group. After treatment, favorable prognosis (mRS scores ≤2) at 3 months in the observation group with 13 cases (54.17%) was significantly better than that in the control group with four cases (16%) ( p  = .001), and there was no statistical difference between the two groups in any hemorrhagic complication. Conclusion HUK is considered to be safe and may improve the prognosis of AIS patients with END after IVT. More clinical trials are needed to validate these results in the future.

    Abstract: To investigate the hypercoagulability of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC)‐related cerebral infarction (HCRCI) with thromboelastography (TEG). Methods A multicenter prospective study was conducted in HCRCI patients, HCC patients without cerebral infarction, and acute cerebral infarction (ACI) patients without HCC between January 2016 and December 2019. TEG parameters and laboratory and clinical data were collected and compared among the three groups. To confirm the independent risk factors of HCRCI, multivariate analyses were conducted. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were utilized to evaluate the area under the curve (AUC) plotted by each independent risk factor. Results There were 38 patients recruited in the HCRCI group, and 152 patients were recruited to the HCC group and the ACI group. The levels of plasma neutrophil count, D‐dimer, α‐fetoprotein (AFP), carcinoembryonic antigen, and maximum amplitude (MA)—a parameter of TEG—were significantly higher in the HCRCI group than HCC and ACI groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that increased neutrophile count, D‐dimer, AFP, and MA were independently associated with HCRCI. ROC curve analysis showed first that AUC of MA for HCRCI was .875, which was larger than the other risk factors, and second that the optimal cutoff value for MA was 61.35, with a sensitivity of 89.50% and specificity of 66.40%. Conclusion It was suggested that TEG disclosed that the pathogenesis of HCRIC is exactly related to the hypercoagulability. And with a cutoff value of MA equaling to 61.35, TEG facilitates clinicians to identify HCC patients at high risk of HCRIC.
