Blood–brain barrier, reperfusion injury, and hemorrhagic transformation in acute ischemic stroke
Open accessAbstract
It has been more than a century since Paul Ehrlich, in 1885, and later his student Edwin Goldmann, proposed that a barrier existed between the CNS and the peripheral circulation. 1 While studying the limited permeation of potassium ferrocyanate into the brain in 1900, Lewandowsky coined the term bluthirnschranke, blood-brain barrier (BBB). 1 The BBB is considered the gatekeeper of the CNS, whose main role is to maintain the fragile homeostasis of the brain designed by segregating the CNS from the systemic circulation.

Blood-brain barrier dysfunction is a prominent pathological feature of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and is typically associated with poor outcome.
“BBB dysfunction is a prominent pathological feature of both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke and is typically associated with poor outcome (307, 312, 482).”

The sections on BBB changes in ischemic stroke and the clinical implications of BBB disruption describe disruption during ischemic stroke and hemorrhagic transformation, and associate a marker of BBB disruption with worse clinical outcome (page not available in our copy). They do not establish the claim for hemorrhagic stroke as a distinct stroke type; hemorrhagic transformation of an ischemic infarct is not the same claim. (LLM, conf=0.88)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredHemorrhagic stroke transformation is sometimes a consequence of thrombolytic tPA therapy for ischemia, and dysfunctional blood-brain barrier is the primary initiator of the pathology.
“Hemorrhagic stroke transformation is sometimes a consequence of thrombolytic tPA therapy for ischemia, and dysfunctional BBB is the primary initiator of the pathology (306, 312).”
From Blood-Brain Barrier: From Physiology to Disease and Back (2019) · cites this paper as [312]
The ‘Clinical implication of BBB disruption’ section says hemorrhagic transformation can occur with r-tPA treatment and that thrombolytics amplify its risk. ‘BBB changes during HT’ calls BBB disruption the fundamental mechanism leading to blood extravasation, but describes hemorrhagic transformation as multifactorial and identifies other processes as potential triggers. It therefore does not establish BBB dysfunction as the primary initiator. (LLM, conf=0.83)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
