مستخلص: Researchers at Umea University in Sweden have conducted a study on normal pressure hydrocephalus (NPH) and its association with cerebral microbleeds (CMBs). CMBs are common in NPH and have been suggested as markers of a brain prone to bleeding. The study aimed to evaluate whether the presence of CMBs increases the long-term risk of hemorrhagic complications and mortality, as well as affects outcomes after cerebrospinal fluid shunt surgery in patients with NPH. The findings showed that while CMBs were associated with hemorrhagic stroke and mortality, they did not seem to reduce the possibility of gait improvement after shunt surgery or contribute to the risk of hemorrhagic complications regarding subdural hematoma or hygroma.
