Hemorrhagic stroke which is a form of stroke that affects 20% of all stroke patients is a devastating condition for which new treatments must be developed. Current treatment methods are quite insufficient to reduce long term morbidity and high mortality rate, up to 50%, associated with bleeding into critical brain structures, into ventricular spaces and within the subarachnoid space. During the last 10-15 years, significant advances in the understanding of important mechanisms that contribute to cell death and clinical deficits have been made. The most important observations revolve around a key set of basic mechanisms that are altered in brain bleeding models, a hemorrhage cascade, including activation of membrane metalloproteinases, oxidative stress and both inflammatory and coagulation pathways. Moreover, it is now becoming apparent that brain hemorrhage can activate the ischemic cascade in neurons, glial cells and the vascular compartment. The activation of multiple pathways allows comes the opportunity to intervene pharmacologically using monotherapy or combination therapy. Ultimately, combination therapy or pleiotropic compounds with multi-target activities should prove to be more efficacious than any single therapy alone. This article provides a comprehensive look at possible targets for small molecule intervention as well as some new approaches that result in metabolic down-regulation or inhibition of multiple pathways simultaneously. The top online publishing journals publish articles which are cited as references by many authors in their work. Citations are important for a journal to get impact factor. Impact factor is a measure reflecting the average number of citations to recent articles published in the journal. The impact of the journal is influenced by impact factor, the journals with high impact factor are considered more important than those with lower ones. Indexing provides easy access of the article online. The international journals are among the best open access journals in the world, set out to publish the most comprehensive, relevant and reliable information based on the current research and development on a variety of subjects. This information can be published in our peer reviewed journal with impact factors and are calculated using citations not only from research articles but also review articles (which tend to receive more citations), editorials, letters, meeting abstracts, short communications, and case reports. The inclusion of these publications provides the opportunity for editors and publishers to manipulate the ratio used to calculate the impact factor and try to increase their number rapidly. Impact factor plays a major role for the particular journal.
