Max and ruby rule 3412/3/2023 ![]() CSF p-HPhLA and lactate were studied in dynamics in some patients (n = 5). Concentration of CSF p-HPhLA was measured by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry, CSF lactate level was obtained from medical records of patients. Methods: The residues of CSF samples from neurosurgical patients (n = 84) were obtained after diagnostic lumbar puncture. The goal of this study was to determine if the CSF content of these parameters correlate with each other in neurosurgical patients. CSF lactate in known to be a PNBM marker with cut-off value of 4 mmol/l. Introduction: The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) concentration of the bacterial 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid ( p-HPhLA) was recently shown to be a possible one-parameter criterion for the diagnosis of the post-neurosurgical bacterial meningitis (PNBM) with cut-off value of 0.9 µmol/l. We suggest that a gender-bias as well as social factors play a significant role in decision-making for the insertion of an EVD.Ĭonnection between possible and proved predictors of the post-neurosurgical meningitis 4-hydroxyphenyllactic acid and lactate in cerebrospinal fluid A Pautova, A Meglei, E Chernevskaya, N Beloborodova Federal Research and Clinical Center of Intensive Care Medicine and Rehabilitology, Moscow, Russian Federation We provide evidence that insertion of EVD is associated with male gender disregarding clear reasoning. Functional outcome after ICH as assessed by mRS was more favorable for women ( p = 0.044).Ĭonclusions: Sex-related differences in patients with ICH with regard to the surgically provided care exist. ![]() ![]() In the multivariate analysis, EVD insertion was independently associated with male gender (OR 2.82, 95%-CI 1.61–4.95, p value < 0.001) irrespective of demographic or radiological features. Men received an external ventricular drain (EVD) for hydrocephalus-therapy significantly more often than women did. No differences in demographics, Charlson Comorbidity Index, symptoms at presentation, ICU- and 12-month mortality were observed among men and women. Results: A total of 398 patients were included (male = 198 and female = 200). Patients’ demographics, comorbidities, symptoms at presentation, radiological findings, surgical and non-surgical provided care, and ICU- and 12-month mortality were compared between men and women. Methods: This retrospective single center study includes all consecutive patients with spontaneous ICH admitted to the Neurocritical Care Unit in a 10-year period. This study elucidates whether sex-related differences exist in particular with regard to provided care, while also taking into account the patients’ characteristics and outcomes in patients with ICH admitted to the neurocritical care unit. Introduction: Sex-related differences in patients with hemorrhagic stroke due to spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) are poorly investigated. Sex-related differences in patients’ characteristics, provided care, and outcomes following spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage SW Wang 1, SYB Bögli 2, SW Wildbolz 1, NM Nierobisch 1, EK Keller 1, GB Brandi 1 1UniversitätsSpital Zürich, Zürich, Switzerland, 2UniversitätsSpital Zürich, Intensive Care Medicine, Zürich, Switzerland
