Abstract

Intracerebral hemorrhage is characterized by the occurrence of hemorrhage at the brain parenchymal region. This causes disruption to blood-brain barrier, cerebral edema, hematoma and microvascular failure which results in neurological dysfunction or even death. The article "Serum secretoneurin as a promising biomarker for predicting poor prognosis in intracerebral hemorrhage: A prospective cohort study" elucidates the potential role of secretoneurin as a promising biomarker for detecting acute brain injury. This is the first report about the significant increase in the level of serum secretoneurin after intracerebral hemorrhage. Authors have demonstrated the correlation of serum secretoneurin levels with the hematoma volume and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores. The work reported will be beneficial to both clinicians and researchers in determining the relationship between serum secretoneurin levels and intracerebral hemorrhage.
