Objective To evaluate the value of multimodal brain function monitoring using quantitative electroencephalography(QEEG)and transcranial Doppler(TCD)in predicting hematoma enlargement and prognosis in patients with acute hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 120 patients with acute hypertensive intracerebral hemorrhage from October 2019 to October 2022.All patients underwent QEEG and TCD examinations within 24 hours of admission,and were divided into hematoma enlargement group(79 cases)and hematoma stabilization group(41 cases)based on whether the hema-toma had expanded.By comparing the parameter differences of QEEG and TCD between two groups,explore the correlation between these monitoring indicators and hematoma enlargement and patient prognosis.Results The patients in the hematoma enlargement group had a higher average age and a higher smoking rate.The initial neuro-logical damage in the hematoma enlargement group was more severe.The DAR and DTABR values of the hematoma enlargement group were significantly higher than those of the stable group at different time points after cerebral hemorrhage(P<0.05).Correlation analysis shows that DAR,DTABR,and P1 have significant positive correla-tions with hematoma enlargement,with DAR and DTABR showing particularly strong correlations(r values of 0.774 and 0.738,respectively,P<0.05),while P1 has relatively weak correlations(r=0.213,P<0.05).ROC curve analysis shows that DAR,DTABR,and P1 parameters have high sensitivity and specificity in predicting hematoma enlargement,with an AUC value of up to 0.970 for DAR.During the follow-up period,the MRS scores of the stable hematoma group were significantly better than those of the hematoma expansion group at all time points(P<0.05).Conclusion QEEG and TCD are helpful in early identification of high-risk patients,enabling more targeted treatment measures and improving clinical outcomes for patients.

Objective To clarify the role of syk kinase in inflammasome activation in mouse peritoneal macrophages during Listeria monocytogenes (LM) infection. Methods Murine peritoneal macrophages were randomly divided into BAY treatment group, SB treatment group, WO treatment group, no treatment group and negative control group (NI). There were three wells in each group. The syk inhibitor BAY 117082, P38MAPK inhibitor SB203580 and PI3K inhibitor wotamine were used to treat murine peritoneal macrophages for 1h in BAY treatment group, SB treatment group and WO treatment group. Murine peritoneal macrophages were infected with LM for 24 h except NI group. The protein level of interleukin (IL)-18 in the supernatant was detected by ELISA kit. The activation condition of key molecule ASC in the infected-macrophages cyto-plasm was observed under fluorescence microscope. The phosphorylation levels of syk protein kinase at different time points during LM infection were determined by Western blot assay. Results There was no significant difference in IL-18 protein level before and after BAY treatment in NI group (P>0.05). The IL-18 protein level was significantly lower after LM infec-tion in BAY treatment group compared with that in no treatment group (P<0.05). In contrast, there was no significant differ-ence in IL-18 production between SB treatment group, WO treatment and no treatment group (P>0.05). Meanwhile, the per-centage of ASC-speck positive cells was obviously diminished in BAY treatment group compared with that in no treatment group (P<0.01). The phosphorylation levels of syk were significantly increased in 5 min, 15 min and 30 min post-infection. Conclusion Syk kinase signaling is involved in the inflammasomes activation upon Listeria monocytogenes infection in mu-rine macrophages.
