RESUMO
Pregnancy-related cerebrovascular disease is a serious complication of pregnancy and puerperium. The etiology and pathological mechanisms of cerebrovascular disease are complex, involving changes in the cardiovascular, endocrine, and immune systems. Vascular risk factors during pregnancy and puerperium may cause vasospasm and endothelial cell damage leading to cerebral ischemia, hemorrhage, posterior reversible encephalopathy syndrome (PRES), and reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome. Arterial or venous obstruction may damage the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and impede venous return, resulting in cerebral edema, hemorrhage, and intracranial hypertension. Pregnancy with hypercoagulability may threaten the lives of both the mother and the developing fetus. With improvements in stroke treatment during pregnancy and puerperium, neuroradiologists have gained new insights into this problem. This article reviews the pathogenesis, imaging findings, and risk factors of stroke during pregnancy and puerperium, focusing on imaging diagnosis and prognostic assessment.
RESUMO
This paper explores the diagnostic value of dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) for the prognosis of glioma, and judges the relevant factors affecting the prognosis of glioma. This paper used a Cox proportional hazards model to retrospectively analyze clinical data of 81 patients with complete neuroglioma from the same neurosurgery medical team from January 2012 to November 2018, including DCE-MRI data. To determine the prognostic factors, P < 0.05 was used as the statistical standard, and the survival curve of statistically significant factors was drawn by Kaplan-Meier method. The Cox proportional hazard model analysis showed the preoperative Karnofsky Performance Status Scale (KPS) score, age, tumor pathologic grade, postoperative radiotherapy, temozolomide use, and Ki-67 expression had an impact on the prognosis of patients with neuroglioma. Multivariate analysis and DCE-MRI data showed that age, tumor grade, preoperative KPS score, postoperative radiotherapy, and Ki-67 expression were prognostic factors for patients with glioma. The older the age, the higher the pathologic grade, the higher the Ki-67 expression level, and the lower the KPS score before surgery, the worse the prognosis. Postoperative radiotherapy and appropriate temozolomide chemotherapy will help improve the prognosis of patients with neuroglioma.
