There is insufficient evidence about the suitability of dual-antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) for different stroke subtypes. We aimed to determine the relationship between DAPT and early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with minor stroke of undetermined cause. <i>Methods</i>. We retrospectively collected data on patients with minor stroke treated with aspirin alone or in combination with clopidogrel and aspirin. Efficacy was the incidence of END defined as the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score increase of ≥2 within 7 days after admission. Safety was defined as the rate of any bleeding event. These were investigated in subtypes including the stroke of undetermined cause (SUC), large artery atherosclerosis (LAA), cardioembolism (CE), and small artery occlusion (SAO). <i>Results</i>. 442 patients were assigned to the SUC (<i>n</i> = 91), LAA (<i>n</i> = 157), CE (<i>n</i> = 30), and SAO (<i>n</i> = 164) groups. The incidences of END were not significantly different between patients treated with dual- versus single-antiplatelet therapy in any stroke subtypes: LAA, 17.6% vs. 12.1% (<i>P</i> = 0.348); CE, 0% vs. 20.0% (<i>P</i> = 0.224); SAO, 8.8% vs. 2.4% (<i>P</i> = 0.093); and SUC, 13.6% vs. 2.1% (<i>P</i> = 0.053).

Neuromuscular diseases present a set of clinical and pathological disabilities that include muscle weakness and atrophy, perception of fatigue, fatigability, and contracture. Motor fatigability compromises the ability of the individual to generate muscle strength and perform their daily activities. Quantitative measures of strength and motor fatigability are important to determine the clinical progression of the disease and the response to the proposed treatments. Thus, the aim of this study was to identify the equipment and protocols frequently used to assess upper limb motor fatigability in patients with neuromuscular disease. <i>Methods</i>. Information such as equipment used to induce motor fatigability, body segment or joint studied, movement analyzed, type of contraction, and protocol utilized for the test was analyzed. Joanna Briggs Scale and Newcastle-Ottawa Scale assessed the methodological quality of the studies. In addition, a checklist was prepared by the research group to assess the protocols presented in the referred studies. <i>Results</i>. The isokinetic and handgrip dynamometers were the most utilized equipment to induce motor fatigability. 83% of the studies had a design with low methodological rigor and half of them with high risk of bias. In the analysis of the protocols utilized to induce motor fatigability, one study was classified as regular and the other ones as good. <i>Conclusion</i>. The methodological topics to assess motor fatigability were incompletely described considering the electrophysiological and biomechanical approach. Although the motor fatigability in the upper limb was evaluated using isokinetic and handgrip equipment, the absence of a gold standard protocol still compromises the understanding of clinical progression and responses to the treatments in the neuromuscular diseases.

Myelin sheaths are responsible for various physiological functions such as metabolism, rapid nerve conduction, and maintaining ionic and water homeostasis in the brain. Lipid is one of the major components in the myelin, which includes cholesterol, ceramide, and their derivatives, such as galactosylceramide, sulfatide, and gangliosides. Ceramide and its derivatives are synthesised by various ceramide biosynthetic pathways such as de novo, salvage, sphingomyelinase, and recycling of exogenous ceramide. At an appropriate level, ceramide facilitates the development of the nervous system, cell proliferation, autophagy, and apoptosis, which are responsible for normal functioning, but when the level is altered from normal, it results in mitochondrial dysfunction or cell death through autophagy and apoptosis. The ceramide level increases, especially in the mitochondria. Ceramide level increases in response to oxidative stress which is mediated by inflammatory cytokines. Due to mitochondrial dysfunction, an energy-deficient condition is created because of disruption in the electron transport chain, which results in the death of neurons and glial cells, which subsequently cause demyelination and degeneration of axon. Losing myelin while axons remain relatively intact is the characteristic feature of demyelinating diseases. The primary element of demyelinating disorder is damage, malfunction, failure, or death of mitochondria. These disturbances may occur due to direct or indirect interaction of ceramide with mitochondria. There are several risk factors for demyelination, such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, trauma, obesity, vitamin D deficiency, and genetic and environmental factors. Thus, the review is mainly aimed towards the interaction between ceramide and mitochondria during demyelination.</p>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":6939,"journal":{"name":"Acta Neurologica Scandinavica","volume":"2023 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2023-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1155/2023/7398037","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136013855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
