Objective To investigate the correlation between hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and each parameter of blood pressure variability (BPV) in patients with massive cerebral infarction caused by cardioembolic middle cerebral artery occlusion. Methods The patients with massive cerebral infarction caused by unilateral cardioembolic middle cerebral artery occlusion admitted to hospital within 24 h after onset were selected. For patients without revealing HT with head MRI on admission were analyzed retrospectively. According to the results of MRI rescan within 7 days after onset, they were divided into either a HT group or a non-HT group. Al specific parameters of blood pressure were compared and analyzed between the 2 groups, specificaly including initial value (initial), mean value ( mean), maximum value (max), minimum value (min), maximum-minimum difference (max-min), standard deviation (sd), successive variation (sv), and maximum value of sv (svmax) of systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP). Results A total of 146 patients were enroled in the analysis, and 77 (52. 7% ) had HT within 7 d after onset. Al the blood pressure parameters were grouped by quartiles. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjusting for age, admission time, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, congestive heart failure, antiplatelet therapy, initial blood glucose, prothrombin time, and international normalized ratio of the patients, SBPmin , SBPmax-min , SBPsv , SBPsvmax , DBPinitial, DBPsd , DBPmax , DBPmax-min , DBPsv , and DBPsvmax had significant independent association with and HT (likelihood ratio test of trend, al P < 0. 05). Conclusions Higher BP level and variability may increase the risk of HT in patients with massive cerebral infarction after cardioembolic middle cerebral artery occlusion. A smooth and slow antihypertensive treatment may need for these patients.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the clinical characteristics and gene polymorphism of oxcarbazepine (OXC)- induced Stevens-Johnson syndrome (SJS) and toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN). METHODS:Retrieved from CNKI,Wanfang,VIP, PubMed,EMBase,SpringerLink and other databases,case reports about OXC-induced severe ADR were summarized and ana-lyzed. RESULTS:Twelve literatures were collected,and 13 case reports about OXC-induced SJS/TEN were obtained. Male had more OXC-induced severe skin ADR than female. ADR mostly occurred during 1-14 d after medication. All patients were cured with treatment of glucocorticoid and antiallergy,without death case. Genotyping for 8 patients were performed and 6 of them showed the presence of HLA-B*1502 allele. While HLA-B alleles of 2 patients were HLA-B*1518/B*4001,which was the variation of HLA-B*1502. CONCLUSIONS:OXC-induced ADR should be monitored closely. Great importance should be attached to patient education and follow-up program. HLA-B*1502 gene detection should be performed to guide rational use of OXC and optimize clini-cal drug use plan.
