Our findings reveal a time-dependent immune response following aSAH, with distinct within-patient patterns in CSF and PB. The early CSF cytokine peak preceding immune cell changes suggests a potential mechanistic link and identifies the cytokine response as a promising therapeutic target. This cytokine surge may drive immune cell expansion and prime PBMCs for increased inflammatory activity, potentially contributing to DCI risk. Future studies should explore the importance and sources of specific cytokines in driving immune activation. These insights may inform the development of targeted immunomodulatory strategies for preventing or managing DCI in aSAH patients.
