Objective:To investigate the clinical and imaging features of spontaneous convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) with acute cerebral infarction.Methods:Nine patients with cSAH complicated with acute cerebral infarction, admitted to our hospital from January 2018 to October 2021, were selected. The clinical data and efficacy of these patients were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The time from cSAH to the onset of acute cerebral infarction was 5-144 h, with median time of 2 d. The most common bleeding site of cSAH was the parietal lobe ( n=6); cSAH in the ipsilateral side of acute cerebral infarction was noted in 4 patients. Six patients had middle cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion, and 2 patients had anterior cerebral artery stenosis or occlusion. Hypertension ( n=7) was the most common primary disease; 7 patients were treated with antiplatelet drugs, anticoagulants and/or stents. The follow-up at 3 months after cSAH showed that 6 patients had good prognosis and one had poor prognosis. Conclusions:The cSAH often occurs 2 d after acute cerebral infarction; intracranial artery stenosis or occlusion may be the main cause of the disease. In patients complicated with cSAH, active antiplatelet, anticoagulation and/or stent therapy do not increase the risk of bleeding, and the prognosis is good.

Objective:To explore the clinical and imaging characteristics of patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms accompanied by sentinel headache.Methods:Forty patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms confirmed by DSA/CTA and accompanied by sentinel headache admitted to Department of Neurology, First Affiliated Hospital of Xiangnan University from January 2018 to August 2023 were selected as the study subjects; the clinical and imaging characteristics of these patients were summarized. Forty-four patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms without sentinel headache and 40 patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by ruptured intracranial aneurysms admitted to the hospital at the same period were selected as controls. The differences in aneurysm length (maximum diameter), morphology, tumor length (maximum diameter)/neck width (AR), and risk score for rupture of intracranial aneurysms (scores of population, hypertension, age, size of aneurysm, earlier aneurysm rupture, site of aneurysm [PHASES]) among the 3 groups were analyzed.Results:Among the 40 patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms accompanied by sentinel headache, 20 (50%) presented with pain localized at the lateral frontal and orbital regions, 3 (7.5%) with pain at the posterior neck region, and 17 (42.5%) with irregular headache sites; 34 (85%) had new onset headache, and 6 (15%) had changes in headache nature besides chronic headache; 24 patients (60%) had posterior communicating artery aneurysm, 12 (30%) had internal carotid artery aneurysm, 1 (2.5%) had middle cerebral artery aneurysm, and 3 (7.5%) had vertebral artery dissection aneurysm; 36 (90%) had irregular aneurysm morphology. Compared with patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms without sentinel headache, patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms accompanied by sentinel headache and those with subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by ruptured intracranial aneurysms had larger aneurysm length (maximum diameter), higher proportion of irregular morphology, higher AR value, and higher PHASES scores, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Compared with patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage caused by ruptured intracranial aneurysms, patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms accompanied by sentinel headache had larger aneurysm length (maximum diameter) and higher PHASES scores, with significant differences ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Sentinel headache is common in patients with unruptured posterior communicating artery aneurysms, and the relatively specific headache pattern is sudden periorbital pain or posterior neck pain; patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms accompanied by sentinel headache have a higher rupture risk due to the larger size, more irregular shape, higher AR value of the aneurysm, therefore, same attention should be payed to these patients as those with ruptured aneurysms in clinical practice.

Objective:To establish an accurate quantitative method for the determination of serum glycated albumin (GA) based on isotope dilution liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (ID-LC/MS/MS).Methods:This study optimized the ID-LC/MS method recommended by the Japan Society of Clinical Chemistry (JSCC). Albumin (Alb) was purified by anion exchange chromatography. The standard solution of purified sample, lysine (Lys) and deoxyfructosyl lysine (DOF-Lys) and their mixed internal standard were weighed accurately by weight method. The Alb was hydrolyzed to amino acid, and Lys and DOF-Lys were detected to determine GA. The method was evaluated and compared with the routine method.Results:The purity of Alb was 100%. The R 2 ranges of Lys and DOF-Lys linear standard curves were 0.997 8-0.999 9 and 0.999 4-1.000 0. The results of three-day precision evaluation of low, medium and high concentrations of serum were 0.69%-1.97%, 1.13%-2.33% and 1.37%-2.54% in intra, inter and total Coefficient of variation ( CV). In the accuracy evaluation, the deviations between the results of three concentration standards and the certified value were -2.56%, -1.87% and-2.94%. The matrix effects of Lys and DOF-Lys were 89.92% and 109.98%, and the carryover rates were -1.13% and -3.27% respectively. The detection limit and quantitative limit of Lys were 0.075 nmol/g and 0.248 nmol/g, and the DOF-Lys were 0.007 nmol/g and 0.024 nmol/g. The relative expanded uncertainty was 1.60%-2.03%. The fitting regression curve R 2 with the routine method was 0.970 7. Conclusions:A method was established for the detection of serum GA. The method evaluation was accurate and reliable. It was expected to be a candidate reference method for the detection of serum GA.

Objective:To establish the allowable total error (TEa) of the national external quality assessment (EQA) program in line with the current quality level of serum folate measurement in China.Methods:The data of serum total folate test in the clinical laboratory of a hospital in Beijing in 2016 were collected, and the Stata SE 15 software was used for Monte Carlo simulation to obtain the false-negative rate under different bias and inaccuracy conditions. The Origin Pro 9.1 software was used to make the contour figure. The TEa of serum total folate test is derived based on the acceptable false-negative rate. National EQA data of serum total folate in 2020 were collected to calculate the pass rate of participating laboratories and the laboratory pass rate of quality control products at each level under the five TEa derived from the analysis performance on clinical outcomes, biological variation, and the evaluation criterion of national EQA.Results:Based on the influence of analytical performance on clinical outcomes, the TEa was 10%. Under this TEa, the pass rate of the first EQA program of serum total folate in 2020 was more than 80%, and the pass rate of the second time was 73.1%. Under the minimum (46.57%) and appropriate level of TEa (15.52%) derived from biological variation and national EQA evaluation criterion, the pass rate of serum total folate in the two EQA programs in 2020 exceeded 85%.Conclusion:The analytical performance of serum total folate in China cannot meet the requirements of TEa derived based on the effect of analytical performance on clinical outcomes. An appropriate level of TEa derived based on biological variation (15.52%) is suggested as the recommended criterion for the TEa of serum total folate test.
