The invention relates to application of a ferulic acid derivative to preparation of drugs for treating and / or preventing neurodegenerative diseases related to nerve cell injury. The neurodegenerative diseases includes but not limited Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Parkinson's disease, multiple sclerosis, diabetic neuropathy, ischemia stroke and hemorrhagic stroke.

The invention relates to a traditional Chinese medicine preparation for relieving cerebrovascular, in particular to a traditional Chinese medicine for curing hemorrhagic stroke and a preparation method thereof. The preparation of the invention is prepared by traditional Chinese medicine raidx astragali, sanguisuga, acorus gramineus, twotooth achyranthes root, tree peony bark, rhubarb and szechuan lovage rhizome.

The invention relates to systems and methods for diagnosing strokes. In particular, systems and methods for acquiring timely patient status information are described that enable a physician to make diagnostic and treatment decisions relating to ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes. The systems and methods enable the efficient and quantitative assessment of arterial collaterals within the brain for aiding these decisions in the case of ischemic strokes. In the case of hemorrhagic strokes, the systems and methods are effective in determining if there is a leak and what is the rate of leaking.

The present application generally relates to methods to prevent or treat bleeding and / or hypocoagulation in an individual in need thereof, and compositions for use in such methods. The methods comprise administration of FVa, preferably an APC resistant FVa (such as superFVa), alone or in combination with FVIIa, preferably rhFVIIa (such as NovoSeven® or another FVIIa having enhanced activity or half-life). When administered in combination, FVa and FVIIa elicit a synergistic benefit when used to treat or prevent bleeding or hypocoagulation in subjects in need thereof, e.g., subjects with a genetic disorder such as hemophilia or an acquired bleeding disorder or other condition associated with bleeding or hypocoagulation such as hemorrhagic stroke or shock, trauma, surgery or dysmenorrhea or individuals who produce inhibitory antibodies against procoagulants such as FVIII or FIX or who have been administered an overdose of an anticoagulant drug such as a direct Xa or direct thrombin inhibitor or a Novel Oral Anti-Coagulant (NOAC) or demonstrate unexplained bleeding. Also, the invention relates to the use of a superFVa alone or in combination with FVIIa or other procoagulant or prohemostatic agent to prevent, treat or reverse APC-associated bleeding, e.g., as the result of APC overproduction (such as through serious injury and / or hemorrhagic shock) or APC or other anticoagulant therapy, e.g., in the treatment of inflammatory disorders or sepsis disease.

The present invention relates to an in vitro method for the diagnosis and treatment guidance of a bacterial infection in patients suffering from an acute ischemic or hemorrhagic stroke, comprising the determination of the level of Procalcitonin (PCT) or a fragment thereof having at least 12 amino acid residues in a sample of a bodily fluid from said patient and the correlation of the determined level to the diagnosis of a bacterial infection in said patient.

The application provides data from a clinical trial of a PSD-95 inhibitor in subjects undergoing endovascular repair of an aneurysm in or otherwise affecting the CNS. The subjects were stratified by whether the aneurysm ruptured before performing the endovascular surgery. Rupture is associated with higher mortality or increased debilitation if a subject survives. The trial provided evidence of significant benefit in subjects with and without aneurysm rupture before endovascular was surgery performed. Surprisingly, the subjects benefiting most from treatment as judged both by pathology and neurocognitive outcome were those in which the aneurysm had ruptured causing a subarachnoid hemorrhage. These data constitute evidence that a PSD-95 inhibitor is beneficial not only in ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke but in forms of hemorrhage in or affecting the CNS, particularly, subarachnoid hemorrhage.

The invention relates to the use of cyclic Prolyl Glycine (“cyclic PG” or “cPG”) and analogs and mimetics thereof, as neuroprotective agents for the treatment and or prevention of neurological disorders including but not limited to cerebral ischemia or cerebral infarction resulting from a range of phenomena, such as thromboembolic or hemorrhagic stroke, cerebral basospasms, hypoglycemia, cardiac arrest, status epilepticus, perinatal asphyxia, anoxia such as from drowning, pulmonary surgery, and cerebral trauma, as well as to the treatment and prevention of chronic neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and Huntington's disease, and as anticonvulsants.

The invention discloses an extraction method and an application of a component group of a traditional Chinese medicine extract for treating hemorrhagic stroke. The extraction method comprises the following steps: after crushing rheum officinale, cortex moutan, red peony roots, dried radix rehmanniae and pseudo-ginseng in a certain weight ratio, adding water to decoct and extract; after extracting an extraction liquid by using dichloromethane, extracting a water layer by using n-butyl alcohol; and recovering and drying the n-butyl alcohol extraction liquid to obtain the component group of the traditional Chinese medicine extract. Analyzed by HPLC-MS, the traditional Chinese medicine extract is prepared from 33 components: paeoniflorins, tannins, paeonosides, anthraquinones, stilbenes, saponins and iridoid glycosides and can be used for remarkably reducing levels of neuronspecific enolase of essential hypertension male rats, S-100beta proteins, IL-1, TNF-alpha and plasma fibrinogen and can be used for preparing the medicine for treating hemorrhagic stroke.

We have identified classes of kallikrein inhibitors as compounds that are useful in the reduction of vascular permeability (e.g., retinal vascular permeability and cerebral vascular permeability) and astrocyte activation. Diseases and conditions associated with increased vascular permeability include diabetic retinopathy, hemorrhagic stroke, and macular edema. Diseases and conditions associated with astrocyte activation include Alzheimer's disease, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, stroke, epilepsy, and brain trauma.
