It is obvious that outcome of the cerebral ischemia depends on many of the metabolic reactions that accompany circulatory disturbance, and forcaming neurochemical changes on the cellular level. Cerebral ischemia accompany changes in the neurotransmitters from the group of the biogenic amines, that influence a great deal whole chain of reactions that lead 66 cell to ultimate death. This processes ease up an enables distribution of the cascade reaction in ischemia leisure. To this should be added the fact, that cerebral infarct is followed with selective disturbance on hematoencephal level for 64. monoamines. It is obvious that cerebral infarct involves changes in metabolism of the central neurotransmitters. This changes could have either short or long term consequences on the ischemic process outcome. Therefore our aim in this study was to investigate the influence of the biogenic amines, serotonin and epinephrine as possible markers in estimation of the neural damage, outcome of the ischemic cerebral stroke and clinical presentation throughout correlation in changes of their concentration in liquor. Investigation included 40 patients on hospital treatment on Neurology Clinic of the CHC Pristina. During the follow up study, we estimated changes in concentration levels of the serotonin and epinephrine in liquor throughout different time intervals, correlating to the neurology status, encountering neuroradiology methods CT and MRof the brain, as a criteria in diagnosing acute ischemic cerebral stroke.
