Neurosurgical Review provides comprehensive reviews on current issues. Focus is on rev articles, but NeurosurgRev also publishes high-quality original research

[Kivanc Yangi, M.D. @drkivancyangi]

📣I am glad to announce that one of our recent studies, “Rho-Associated Kinase Inhibitors in Cerebral Cavernous Malformations: A Preclinical Systematic Review,” has been accepted to be published in @NeurosurgRev Neurosurgical Review.

In this study, we evaluated the literature to answer:

👉🏾 Could medical treatment strategies targeting the RhoA–ROCK pathway serve as stabilizing options for deep-seated or surgically challenging CCMs?

👉🏾 We systematically evaluated preclinical murine CCM studies assessing direct ROCK inhibitors, including fasudil and BA-1049, as well as indirect pathway modulation with statins.

⚠️ Across the included studies, ROCK pathway modulation appeared to be associated with reductions in key disease markers, including lesion burden and non-heme iron deposition.

📊 10-year study on #CarpalTunnelSyndrome reveals key insights by Dawod et al! Severe cases show:
- Longer recovery ⏳
- Less pain relief 😔
- Reduced satisfaction 😕
- Diminished functionality 🖐️
- Lower ADL improvement 🏠
- BUT better sleep quality 😴
