Prevent Brain Bleeds

An Informational Website on the Causes, Prevention and Management of Brain Bleeds (cerebral hemorrhage) @stopstroke brainbleed.com

Heavy Drinking Is Tied to Worse Strokes, Study Finds New research examined the link between alcohol and brain bleeds. @GreenJournal @nytimes @NYTScience @AANmember @MGBResearchNews @MGHNeurology @BWHNeurology @harvardneuromds @HarvardHealth nytimes.com/2025/11/05/wel… nytimes.com/2025/11/05/wel…

Important subgroup analysis of i-DEF trial. As expected, pts with moderate acute ICH volume benefit from an iron chelation therapy, no benefit in people with low or high ICH volumes. Ray of hope for acute ICH treatment, needs a focused RCT @StrokeAHA_ASA ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/ST…

APACHE-AF compared long-term #DOAC to avoid anticoagulant in @BrainBleeds survivors w/ @AFib_Disease- ALL recurrent @BrainBleeds occurred in pts on DOAC (10%) vs NONE in avoid group. Ischemic stroke rates similar. Clear case for Left Atrial Appendage Closure #LAAC @TheLancetNeuro

#brainheart What would you recommend to a patient with atrial fibrillation, a CHA2DS2-VASC score of 4, and multiple cerebral microbleeds on brain MRI? #polloftheday #AF @WorldStrokeEd @SposatoL @Jan_FriSch @guroledip @ShadiYaghi2 @CMichaelGibson @DLBHATTMD @adnanalkhouli

Let's RT- TOPICS for tomorrow's @WorldStrokeOrg #tweetchat on #BRAINHEART - The cutting edge in Left Atrial Appendage Closure to @stopstroke in @AFib_Disease incl latest data from PRAGUE 17 trial @POsmancik @adnanalkhouli @CMichaelGibson @DLBHATTMD @ShadiYaghi2 @WorldStrokeEd

Our recent publication in @GreenJournal - Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy #CAA is an independent contributor to white matter atrophy which in turn results into changes in executive function @CAA_Disease @MGHNeurology @MGHNeuroSci @AANMember @NINDSnews n.neurology.org/content/95/5/e…

The latest about the management of Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy @CAA_Disease - Review article that includes practical recommendations to prevent @BrainBleeds in #CAA & therapeutic advances @MarielKozberg @IntJStroke @WHO @WorldStrokeOrg @WorldStrokeEd journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.117…

Interesting data on Frequency/Predictors of Major Bleeding in ESUS: Patients from Eastern Asia and pts randomized to Rivaroxaban (vs aspirin) had higher major bleeding & @BrainBleeds risks. @RegistryStroke #RobertMikulik @PHRIresearch @StrokeAHA_ASA ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/ST…

CONCLUSION: The high risk of recurrent ICH, other vascular events and prolonged reduced survival-rates warrant clinical trials to determine optimal secondary prevention treatment after ICH. @BrainBleeds @BoNorrving @ESOstroke @SAGE_Publishing journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.11…
