Inflammatory and oxidative stress markers in intracerebral hemorrhage: Relevance as prognostic markers for quantification of the edema volume.

ABSTRACT: We aimed to analyze the inflammatory and oxidative stress (OS) markers after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and their temporal changes, interaction effects, and prognostic values as biomarkers for the prediction of the edema volume. Our prospective, longitudinal study included a cohort group of 73 conservatively treated patients with ICH, without hematoma expansion or intraventricular bleeding, which were initialized with the same treatment and provided with the same in-hospital care during the disease course. Study procedures included multilevel comprehensive analyses of clinical and neuroimaging data, aligned with the exploration of 19 inflammatory and five OS markers. White blood cells (WBC), C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), neutrophilia, and lymphopenia p
