Transl Stroke Res 2024; 15:533-544. [PMID: 37280502 PMCID: PMC11106194 DOI: 10.1007/s12975-023-01154-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2023] [Revised: 04/05/2023] [Accepted: 04/13/2023] [Indexed: 06/08/2023]
Abstract
In intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) with pathology-proven etiology, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to elucidate the association between cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and arteriolosclerosis, and directly compared MRI and pathological changes of markers of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Studies enrolling primary ICH who had received an etiological diagnosis through biopsy or autopsy were searched using Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and Web of Science from inception to June 8, 2022. We extracted pathological changes of CSVD for each patient whenever available. Patients were grouped into CAA + arteriolosclerosis, strict CAA, and strict arteriolosclerosis subgroups. Of 4155 studies identified, 28 studies with 456 ICH patients were included. The frequency of lobar ICH (p<0.001) and total microbleed number (p=0.015) differed among patients with CAA + arteriolosclerosis, strict CAA, and strict arteriolosclerosis. Concerning pathology, severe CAA was associated with arteriolosclerosis (OR 6.067, 95% CI 1.107-33.238, p=0.038), although this association was not statistically significant after adjusting for age and sex. Additionally, the total microbleed number (median 15 vs. 0, p=0.006) was higher in ICH patients with CAA evidence than those without CAA. The pathology of CSVD imaging markers was mostly investigated in CAA-ICH. There was inconsistency concerning CAA severity surrounding microbleeds. Small diffusion-weighted imaging lesions could be matched to acute microinfarct histopathologically. Studies that directly correlated MRI and pathology of lacunes, enlarged perivascular spaces, and atrophy were scarce. Arteriolosclerosis might be associated with severe CAA. The pathological changes of CSVD markers by ICH etiology are needed to be investigated further.

Brain arteriolosclerosis. Acta Neuropathol 2021; 141:1-24. [PMID: 33098484 PMCID: PMC8503820 DOI: 10.1007/s00401-020-02235-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 70] [Impact Index Per Article: 23.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/15/2020] [Revised: 10/04/2020] [Accepted: 10/05/2020] [Indexed: 12/14/2022]
Abstract
Brain arteriolosclerosis (B-ASC), characterized by pathologic arteriolar wall thickening, is a common finding at autopsy in aged persons and is associated with cognitive impairment. Hypertension and diabetes are widely recognized as risk factors for B-ASC. Recent research indicates other and more complex risk factors and pathogenetic mechanisms. Here, we describe aspects of the unique architecture of brain arterioles, histomorphologic features of B-ASC, relevant neuroimaging findings, epidemiology and association with aging, established genetic risk factors, and the co-occurrence of B-ASC with other neuropathologic conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and limbic-predominant age-related TDP-43 encephalopathy (LATE). There may also be complex physiologic interactions between metabolic syndrome (e.g., hypertension and inflammation) and brain arteriolar pathology. Although there is no universally applied diagnostic methodology, several classification schemes and neuroimaging techniques are used to diagnose and categorize cerebral small vessel disease pathologies that include B-ASC, microinfarcts, microbleeds, lacunar infarcts, and cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). In clinical-pathologic studies that factored in comorbid diseases, B-ASC was independently associated with impairments of global cognition, episodic memory, working memory, and perceptual speed, and has been linked to autonomic dysfunction and motor symptoms including parkinsonism. We conclude by discussing critical knowledge gaps related to B-ASC and suggest that there are probably subcategories of B-ASC that differ in pathogenesis. Observed in over 80% of autopsied individuals beyond 80 years of age, B-ASC is a complex and under-studied contributor to neurologic disability.
