Do drops in Barometric Pressure Are Associated with Deep Intracerebral Hemorrhage?
Drops in daily atmospheric pressures were associated with deep but not cortical ICH, suggesting a link to hypertensive etiology. Changes in barometric pressures were also associated with higher monthly frequencies of ICH.
These findings suggest that matrix-degrading proteinases may be involved in apoptosis as part of a unique mechanism of periodontal tissue breakdown, in which novel proteinases may help execute the dissolution of the extracellular matrix.
