Abstract

This research was conducted to evaluate the knowledge and diagnosis of brain death among resident in Indonesia. This study used an observational analytic study with a cross-sectional study design using a questionnaire. The research subjects consisted of 132 level 2 (after 2 years of residency) and level 3 (after 4 years of residency) residents, the total sampling for which was taken from the departments of Neurosurgery, Anesthesiology, and Neurology at Dr. Soetomo Academic Medical Center Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Data were taken from November 2018 to January 2019. A total of 132 residents of Neurosurgery, Neurology, and Anesthesiology participated in this study. From the series of studies, residents' knowledge of the concept of brain death was in the sufficient category (41.7%), residents' knowledge of the technical diagnosis of brain death was in the good category (40.2%), residents' knowledge of brain death examination was in the less category (43.2%), and finally, it was found that the resident's knowledge of brain death was in a good category (35.6%). There were also significant differences in knowledge of brain death between Neurosurgery, Neurology, and Anesthesiologist Resident (P <0.001) and knowledge of brain death between level 2 and level 3 residents (P=0.032). In general, the Indonesian resident doctors' knowledge of brain death is adequate, but knowledge of the clinical examination of brain death is still lacking. Further research must be carried out to promote knowledge of brain death in residents as well as professional doctors/specialists, so that the number of organ transplants, especially in Indonesia, will increase.

Abstract

Highlights: 1. As minocycline plays an important role in stroke microglia activation and iron chelation, it is important to further analyze its effects on stroke treatment. 2. This meta-analysis revealed a significant effect of minocycline therapy, as evidenced by improved functional outcomes and inhibited matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) activity. Abstract Stroke is the most common and devastating cerebrovascular disease. Many neuroprotective medications, such as scale and minocycline, have been developed to help the nervous system recover or regenerate after a stroke. However, it remains unclear whether minocycline provides a beneficial effect on stroke. We conducted this systematic review and meta-analysis to synthesize the effects of minocycline in stroke treatment. The systematic review was registered in the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews (PROSPERO), with registration number CRD42023485168. The quality of the eligible studies was assessed using the Jadad scale. This systematic review included three ischemic stroke trials, seven intracerebral hemorrhage trials, and one study on acute stroke. There was a significant association between minocycline intervention and stroke severity according to the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS), with a pooled mean difference (MD) of -1.92, a 95% confidence interval (CI) of -3.39 to -0.45, and a value of p=0.01. In the subgroup of ischemic stroke, the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was significantly lower in the minocycline treatment group compared to the control group (MD=-0.89, 95% CI=-1.54 to -0.25, p=0.007). Additionally, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) levels for the intracerebral hemorrhage subgroup were significantly lower in the minocycline treatment group compared to the control group (MD=-19.93, 95% CI=-36.9 to -2.96, p=0.02). The analysis revealed that minocycline intervention was not significantly associated with hematoma volume, mortality, or stroke recurrence. Our findings indicate that minocycline supplementation is a potential intervention strategy for treating ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: Ischemic stroke remains as a major health problem and one important process in Ischemic Stroke is neuroinflammation which has a principal role to maintain the balance of neurogenesis and neurodegeneration process in the brain. Neuroinflammation can lead to glial scar and inhibit neurogenesis processes which is needed for recovery neuron function. This study was conducted to observe the role of high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) as neuroinflammation markers to glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) as glial scar marker and to brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) as neurogenesis marker in brain tissue following ischemic stroke.METHODS: Fifteen male Wistar rats were randomized to three groups; sham group, rats receiving occlusion and terminated 180 minutes later (group A), and rats receiving occlusion and terminated after 7 days (group B). Expressions of BDNF and BDNF mRNA were examined using immunohistochemistry (IHC) and Reverse Transcription Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR), respectively. While GFAP, HMGB1, TNF-α were assessed using IHC.RESULTS: Expression of BDNF was found lower in group A and group B than in sham group (5.20±1.924, 5.00±1.581, and 7.80±1.304, respectively; p=0.032). Expression of BNDF mRNA was found lower in group A and B than in sham group as well. While expression of GFAP was found higher in group A and B than in sham group (9.60±1.517, 11.40±2.074, and 5.20±1.48, respectively; p=0.000). Higher level of HMGB1 and TNF-α expressions were also found to in group A and group B than in sham group (9.3±1.528, 11.67±1.528, and 2.00±1.000, respectively; p=0.000 for HMGB1 and 6.33±1.155, 9.33±1.528, and 3.00±1.000, respectively; p=0.002 for TNF-α).CONCLUSION: The presence of low BDNF levels and high levels of GFAP, HMGB1 and TNF-α markers, possibly reflects inhibition of the neurogenesis process by neuroinflammation, and induced glial scar formation in ischemic stroke conditions after than 180 hours until 7 days.
