[PMID: 36494618 PMCID: PMC9733351 DOI: 10.1186/s12883-022-02976-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/05/2022] [Accepted: 11/08/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND As a meaningful subtype of ischemic stroke in Asians, Branch atheromatous disease (BAD)-related stroke is associated with high early neurological deterioration (END) and disability, but is understudied and without recommended therapy. The mechanism of END still remains unclear. Branch atheromatous disease-related stroke study (BAD-study) therefore aims to investigate demographic, clinical and radiological features, and prognosis of BAD-related stroke in Chinese patients. METHODS/DESIGN BAD-study is a nationwide, multicenter, consecutive, prospective, observational cohort study enrolling patients aged 18-80 years with BAD-related stroke within 72 h after symptom onset. Initial clinical data, laboratory tests, and imaging data are collected via structured case report form, and follow-ups will be performed at 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, 6 months and 12 months after enrollment. The primary outcome is the score on modified Rankin Scale at 90-day follow-up with single-blinded assessment. Secondary outcomes include END within 7 days, and National institute of health stroke scale score, Barthel index, cerebrovascular events, major bleeding complications, and all-cause mortality during 90-day follow-up. Characteristics of penetrating and parent artery will be assessed by high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging combined with other imaging techniques. DISCUSSION BAD-study can provide demographic, clinical, radiological, and prognostic characteristics of BAD-related stroke, and thereby potentially figure out the vascular mechanism of early neurological deterioration and optimize therapy strategy with the aid of advanced imaging technique. Baseline data and evidence will also be generated for randomized controlled trials on BAD-related stroke in the future.

Diagnosis of Subcortical Ischemic Vascular Cognitive Impairment With No Dementia Using Radiomics of Cerebral Cortex and Subcortical Nuclei in High-Resolution T1-Weighted MR Imaging. Front Oncol 2022; 12:852726. [PMID: 35463351 PMCID: PMC9027106 DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.852726] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/11/2022] [Accepted: 03/15/2022] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Purpose To investigate whether the combination of radiomics derived from brain high-resolution T1-weighted imaging and automatic machine learning could diagnose subcortical ischemic vascular cognitive impairment with no dementia (SIVCIND) accurately. Methods A total of 116 right-handed participants involving 40 SIVCIND patients and 76 gender-, age-, and educational experience-matched normal controls (NM) were recruited. A total of 7,106 quantitative features from the bilateral thalamus, hippocampus, globus pallidus, amygdala, nucleus accumbens, putamen, caudate nucleus, and 148 areas of the cerebral cortex were automatically calculated from each subject. Six methods including least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) were utilized to lessen the redundancy of features. Three supervised machine learning approaches of logistic regression (LR), random forest (RF), and support vector machine (SVM) employing 5-fold cross-validation were used to train and establish diagnosis models, and 10 times 10-fold cross-validation was used to evaluate the generalization performance of each model. Correlation analysis was performed between the optimal features and the neuropsychological scores of the SIVCIND patients. Results Thirteen features from the right amygdala, right hippocampus, left caudate nucleus, left putamen, left thalamus, and bilateral nucleus accumbens were included in the optimal subset. Among all the three models, the RF produced the highest diagnostic performance with an area under the receiver operator characteristic curve (AUC) of 0.990 and an accuracy of 0.948. According to the correlation analysis, the radiomics features of the right amygdala, left caudate nucleus, left putamen, and left thalamus were found to be significantly correlated with the neuropsychological scores of the SIVCIND patients. Conclusions The combination of radiomics derived from brain high-resolution T1-weighted imaging and machine learning could diagnose SIVCIND accurately and automatically. The optimal radiomics features are mostly located in the right amygdala, left caudate nucleus, left putamen, and left thalamus, which might be new biomarkers of SIVCIND.

Prognosis and antiplatelet therapy of small single subcortical infarcts in penetrating artery territory: a post hoc analysis of the Third China National Stroke Registry. BMJ Neurol Open 2022; 4:e000267. [PMID: 35463388 PMCID: PMC8984046 DOI: 10.1136/bmjno-2022-000267] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2022] [Accepted: 02/19/2022] [Indexed: 12/04/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Small single subcortical infarction (SSSI) may be classified as parent artery disease-related or only branch involved according to the stenosis of parent artery. The study aimed to evaluate short-term and long-term prognoses and the effectiveness of antiplatelet therapy in SSSI. Methods We prospectively enrolled 2890 patients with SSSI from the Third China National Stroke Registry (CNSR-III) database from August 2015 to March 2018. We assessed clinical outcomes and antiplatelet treatment effects in patients with SSSI with and without parent artery stenosis (PAS) identified by magnetic resonance angiography. Results Among 2890 patients with SSSI in the perforator territory of the middle cerebral artery and the basilar artery, there were 680 (23.53%) patients with PAS and 2210 (76.47%) patients without PAS, respectively. After adjusting for potential confounders, the PAS group had a greater initial stroke severity (OR 1.262, 95% CI 1.058 to 1.505; p=0.0097) and a higher risk of ischaemic stroke recurrence at 3 months (OR 2.266, 95% CI 1.631 to 3.149; p<0.0001) and 1 year (OR 2.054, 95% CI 1.561 to 2.702; p<0.0001), as well as composite vascular events at 3 months (OR 2.306, 95% CI 1.674 to 3.178; p<0.0001) and 1 year (OR 1.983, 95% CI 1.530 to 2.570; p<0.0001), compared with the non-PAS group. In both groups, dual antiplatelet therapy was not superior to single antiplatelet therapy in preventing stroke recurrence, composite vascular events and disability. Conclusion PAS related to significantly higher rates of short-term and long-term stroke recurrence and composite vascular events, suggesting heterogeneous mechanisms in SSSI subgroups. The effectiveness of antiplatelet therapy for SSSI needs further investigation.

Sensitivity of three-dimensional time-of-flight 3.0 T magnetic resonance angiography in visualizing the number and course of lenticulostriate arteries in patients with insular gliomas. BRAIN & SPINE 2021; 2:100856. [PMID: 36248136 PMCID: PMC9560693 DOI: 10.1016/j.bas.2021.100856] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/08/2021] [Revised: 12/17/2021] [Accepted: 12/19/2021] [Indexed: 05/26/2023]
Abstract
Background Neurosurgical resection of insular gliomas is complicated by the possibility of iatrogenic injury to the lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) and is associated with devastating neurological complications, hence the need to accurately assess the number of LSAs and their relationship to the tumor preoperatively. Methods The study included 24 patients with insular gliomas who underwent preoperative 3D-TOF MRA to visualize LSAs. The agreement of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging with intraoperative data in terms of the number of LSAs and their invasion by the tumor was assessed using the Kendall rank correlation coefficient and Cohen's Kappa with linear weighting. Agreement between experts performing image analysis was estimated using Cohen's Kappa with linear weighting. Results The number of LSAs arising from the M1 segment varied from 0 to 9 (mean 4.3 ± 0.37) as determined by 3D-TOF MRA and 2-6 (mean 4.25 ± 0.25) as determined intraoperatively, κ = 0.51 (95% CI: 0.25-0.76) and τ = 0.64 (p < 0.001). LSAs were encased by the tumor in 11 patients (confirmed intraoperatively in 9 patients). LSAs were displaced medially in 8 patients (confirmed intraoperatively in 8 patients). The tumor partially involved the LSAs and displaced them in 5 patients (confirmed intraoperatively in 7 patients), κ = 0.87 (95% CI: 0.70-1), τ = 0.93 (p < 0.001). 3D-TOF MRA demonstrated high sensitivity (100%, 95% CI: 0.63-1) and high specificity (86.67%, 95% CI: 0.58-0.98) in determining the LSA-tumor interface. Conclusions 3D-TOF MRA at 3T demonstrated sensitivity in determining the LSA-tumor interface and the number of LSAs in patients with insular gliomas.

Chen YC, Wei XE, Lu J, Qiao RH, Shen XF, Li YH. Correlation Between the Number of Lenticulostriate Arteries and Imaging of Cerebral Small Vessel Disease. Front Neurol 2019; 10:882. [PMID: 31456742 PMCID: PMC6699475 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2019.00882] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2019] [Accepted: 07/30/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Background and purpose: Hypoperfusion plays an important role in the pathophysiology of cerebral small vessel disease (SVD). Lenticulostriate arteries (LSAs) are some of the most important cerebral arterial small vessels. This study aimed to investigate whether the number of LSAs was associated with the cerebral perfusion in SVD patients and determine the correlation between the number of LSAs and SVD severity. Methods: Five hundred and ninety-four consecutive patients who underwent digital subtraction angiography were enrolled in this study. The number of LSAs was determined. Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) was used to calculate the cerebral blood flow (CBF), cerebral blood volume (CBV), mean transit time (MTT), and time to peak (TTP). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed to assess cerebral infarct, cerebral microbleeds (CMBs), white matter hyperintensities (WMHs), enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVSs), and lacunes. An SVD compound score was calculated to express the level of cerebral SVD load. Results: The SVD scores were negatively correlated with the number of the LSAs (P < 0.001, rs = −0.44). The number of LSAs was inversely associated with the presence of any type of SVD (P < 0.001). The adjusted ORs of the SVD severity were 0.31 for LSA group 1 (LSA > 20) vs. group 2 (LSA = 10–20) and 0.47 for LSA group 2 (LSA = 10–20) vs. group 3 (LSA < 10). MTT and TTP were significantly higher and CBF was significantly lower when the number of LSAs was between 5 and 10 on each side of the basal ganglia (P < 0.001, <0.001, and <0.001, respectively). The CBV was slightly lower when the number of LSAs was between 5 and 10, while it was significantly lower when the number was <5 on each side of the basal ganglia (P < 0.05, <0.0001, respectively). Conclusion: LSA count was lower in SVD patients than the non-SVD participants and there was a positive correlation between the cerebral perfusion and the number of LSAs. The LSA number was negatively associated with SVD severity, hypoperfusion might play an important role. This finding may have potentially important clinical implications for monitoring LSA in SVD patients.
