Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a severe condition with a mortality rate of approximately 35%. However, unlike ischemic stroke, the treatment outcomes for SAH have not significantly improved. The management of post-SAH brain injury and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) remains inadequate. The prognosis of SAH is influenced not only by the neurological severity at onset and surgical outcomes but also by the occurrence of delayed cerebral ischemia. Therefore, improving the treatment of DCI is crucial for enhancing the prognosis of SAH.
The etiology of DCI following SAH involves not only cerebral vasospasm but also primary brain injury, increased intracranial pressure, microcirculatory disturbances, microthrombosis, blood–brain barrier disruption, and cortical spreading ischemia. Therefore, a comprehensive prevention and treatment strategy is essential.
Japan has a higher incidence of SAH compared to the global average, suggesting that preventive measures against SAH in Japan may be insufficient. Risk factors for SAH include hypertension, smoking, alcohol abuse, and the use of certain drugs. Factors more prevalent among the Japanese population include genetics, aging, high smoking rates, and a higher detection rate of SAH, though these are not definitively identified.
This Special Issue calls for original research utilizing novel data to address the aforementioned issues.
