Measurement of GFAP in Nasal Exudate in the Differential Diagnosis between Ischemic Stroke and Intracerebral Hemorrhage.
Background: Differential diagnosis between ischemic stroke (IS) and intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a great challenge. Recently, the discovery of cerebral lymphatic drainage toward the nostrils suggested nasal exudate (NE) as a new source for measuring biomarkers from neural damage.
Objectives: In this study, we sought to confirm whether glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) levels in NE could identify ICH.
Methods: GFAP in nasal exudate (nGFAP) was studied in 5 IS and 5 ICH patients. All patients underwent neurological examination, brain computed tomography, laboratory tests, and measurement of nGFAP and serum GFAP.
Results: We found higher concentrations in ICH patients (p = 0.02). The area under the ROC curve for IS/ICH discrimination was 0.840, with a cut-off point of 0.06 pg/mg for 100% sensitivity and 80% specificity.
Conclusions: These findings suggest that nGFAP could be a useful biomarker for differential diagnosis between IS and ICH and opens a potential field of study for other biomarkers in NE in neurological disorders.
期刊介绍:
A rapidly-growing field, stroke and cerebrovascular research is unique in that it involves a variety of specialties such as neurology, internal medicine, surgery, radiology, epidemiology, cardiology, hematology, psychology and rehabilitation. ''Cerebrovascular Diseases'' is an international forum which meets the growing need for sophisticated, up-to-date scientific information on clinical data, diagnostic testing, and therapeutic issues, dealing with all aspects of stroke and cerebrovascular diseases. It contains original contributions, reviews of selected topics and clinical investigative studies, recent meeting reports and work-in-progress as well as discussions on controversial issues. All aspects related to clinical advances are considered, while purely experimental work appears if directly relevant to clinical issues.
