Few certainties exist regarding the optimal type, timing, or dosage of rehabilitation after stroke. Despite differing injury mechanisms and recovery patterns following ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke, most translational stroke research is conducted after ischemia. As we enter the era of personalized medicine, exploring subtype-specific treatment efficacy is essential to optimizing recovery. Our objective was to characterize co...

Rising intracranial pressure (ICP) aggravates secondary injury and heightens risk of death following intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Long-recognized compensatory mechanisms that lower ICP include reduced cerebrospinal fluid and venous blood volumes. Recently, we identified another compensatory mechanism in severe stroke, a decrease in cerebral parenchymal volume via widespread reductions in cell volume and extracellular space...

Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) accounts for 10–15% of all strokes and leaves most survivors with impairments. Fever, a rise in the thermoregulatory set point, complicates ICH. This review summarizes ICH fever studies and employs meta-analytic techniques to explore the relationship between fever and ICH. We discuss methodological considerations for future studies and provide an overview of mechanisms by which fever, and its tre...

One major aim of preclinical intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) research is to develop and test potential neuroprotectants. Published guidelines for experimental design and reporting stress the importance of clearly and completely reporting results and methodological details to ensure reproducibility and maximize information availability. The current review has two objectives: first, to characterize current ICH neuroprotection res...
