Rationale: Pipeline embolization devices are a new treatment for intracranial aneurysms, especially irregular, giant aneurysms.
Patient Concerns: A 48-year-old female patient presented with a headache in the frontal part for 3 weeks.
Diagnoses: Cerebral computed tomographic angiography and magnetic resonance angiography showed a saccular aneurysm in the right internal carotid artery that wrapped the parent artery.
Background: Sleep-related problems are debilitating and long-lasting conditions in individuals with stroke. We aimed to estimate the prevalence of poor sleep quality after stroke by conducting a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Methods: Five databases (PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Scopus, and CINHAL) were searched for literature published before November 2022.

Objective: Sulfonylurea receptor-1 (SUR1) is implicated in acute brain injury. This study was designed to determine relationship between serum SUR1 levels and severity, early neurologic deterioration (END) plus clinical outcome after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
Methods: Serum SUR1 levels of 131 ICH patients and 131 healthy controls were quantified in this prospective, observational study.
Background: Oxidative stress has a key role in brain injury and melatonin possesses antioxidant effects. We aimed to ascertain the potential relationship between serum melatonin concentrations and functional outcome following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH).
Methods: This prospective and observational study was conducted of 169 aSAH patients.
