Abstract:
The article "Differential DNA Methylation Associated with Delayed Cerebral Ischemia after Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Systematic Review" by Tomasz Klepinowski et al. offers an in-depth analysis of the relationship between DNA methylation and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) following aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH). By systematically reviewing databases like PubMed, MEDLINE, Scopus, and Web of Science, the authors identify key genes, including ITPR3, HAMP, INSR, and CDHR5, as potential biomarkers for early DCI diagnosis. Their meticulous adherence to PRISMA guidelines and the STROBE statement for quality assessment enhances the study's credibility. However, the review could be improved by discussing methodological variability, statistical power, and the functional relevance of identified CpG sites. Additional sections on mechanistic pathways, integration with other omics data, clinical translation, and ethical considerations would further strengthen the review, providing a more comprehensive understanding of epigenetic factors in DCI and paving the way for future therapeutic interventions.
