Is inordinate glucose variation poststroke associated with poor neurological improvement in patients without history of diabetes?
Inordinate glucose variation correlated with less neurological improvement poststroke, giving the evidence that the fluctuation of glucose levels in stroke patients should be taken into consideration during glucose modulation.
The p38 MAPK pathway is required for maximal PAF-induced neutrophil priming for O2- production and elastase degranulation. Therefore, the MAPK signaling cascade may offer a potential therapeutic strategy to preempt global neutrophil hyperactivity rather than attempt to nullify the end products independently.
