Application

Application Comment Organism
medicine proCPU activation and its relatedness to efficacy and safety of thrombolytic therapy in ischemic stroke patients is investigated. In 12 patients with ischemic stroke who are treated with intravenous or intraarterial thrombolysis, venous blood samples are taken at different time points before, during and after thrombolytic therapy. No correlations between maximal CPU activity or proCPU consumption and patient or stroke characteristics are found. Maximal CPU activity is associated with evolution of the clinical deficit and achieved recanalisation. ProCPU consumption is related to the risk of intracranial hemorrhage, mortality and final infarct volume Homo sapiens
