Is early DNR a self-fulfilling prophecy for patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage?
DNR institution and restriction of resuscitation was not associated with poor outcome or difference in survival within 1 year after ICH. This indicates an early DNR probably does not lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy in this population, and might be explained by our practice, were DNR orders do not impact the level of supportive medical care we provide.
The results suggest that adiponectin is inversely correlated with proteinuria and treatment with ramipril both corrects proteinuria and increases the low adiponectin levels in diabetic patients.
