Abstract
Background Lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is one of the major postoperative complications in patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIA) who underwent endovascular treatment (EVT). However, patient-specific predictive models are still lacking. This study aimed to construct and validate a nomogram model for estimating the risk of lower extremity DVT for RIA patients who underwent EVT. Methods This cohort study enrolled 471 RIA patients who received EVT in our institution between 1 January 2020 to 4 February 2022. Perioperative information on participants is collected to develop and validate a nomogram for predicting lower extremity DVT in RIA patients after EVT. Predictive accuracy, discriminatory capability, and clinical effectiveness were evaluated by concordance index (C-index), calibration curves, and decision curve analysis. Result Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age, albumin, D-dimer, GCS score, middle cerebral artery aneurysm, and delayed cerebral ischemia were independent predictors for lower extremity DVT. The nomogram for assessing individual risk of lower extremity DVT indicated good predictive accuracy in the primary cohort (c-index, 0.92) and the validation cohort (c-index, 0.85), with a wide threshold probability range (4-82%) and superior net benefit. Conclusion The present study provided a reliable and convenient nomogram model developed with six optimal predictors to assess postoperative lower extremity DVT in RIA patients, which may benefit to strengthen the awareness of lower extremity DVT control and supply appropriate resources to forecast patients at high risk of RIA-related lower extremity DVT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Aneurysmal Subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH) is one of the most common causes of neurocritical care admission. Consistent evidence has been suggestive of endocrine dysregulation in aSAH. This review aims to provide an up-to-date presentation of the available evidence regarding endocrine dysregulation in aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage. METHODS A comprehensive literature search was performed using PubMed database. All available evidence related to endocrine dysregulation in hypothalamic-pituitary hormones, adrenal hormones and natriuretic peptides after aSAH, published since 2010, were reviewed. RESULTS There have been reports of varying prevalence of dysregulation in hypothalamic-pituitary and adrenal hormones in aSAH. The cause of this dysregulation and its pattern remain unclear. Hypothalamic-pituitary and adrenal dysregulation have been associated with higher incidence of poor neurological outcome and increased mortality. Whilst there is evidence that long-term dysregulation of these axes may also develop, it appears to be less frequent than the acute-phase dysregulation and transient in pattern. Increased levels of catecholamines have been reported in the hyper-acute phase of aSAH with reported inconsistent correlation with the outcomes and the complications of the disease. There is growing evidence that of a causal link between the endocrine dysregulation and the development of hyponatraemia and delayed cerebral ischaemia, in the acute phase of aSAH. However, the pathophysiological mechanism and pattern of endocrine dysregulation which could be causally associated with these complications still remain debatable. CONCLUSION The evidence, mainly from small observational and heterogeneous in methodology studies, is suggestive of adverse effects of the endocrine dysregulation on the outcome and the incidence of complications of the disease. However, the cause of this dysregulation and a pathophysiological mechanism that could link its presence with the development of acute complications and the outcome of the aSAH remain unclear. Further research is warranted to elucidate the clinical significance of endocrine dysregulation in subarachnoid haemorrhage.

Acta Neurochir (Wien) 2020; 162:2295-2301. [PMID: 32577893 PMCID: PMC7311113 DOI: 10.1007/s00701-020-04455-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2020] [Accepted: 06/09/2020] [Indexed: 11/28/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Subarachnoid hemorrhage is a severe subtype of hemorrhagic stroke, and deep-vein thrombosis is a frequent complication detected in these patients. In addition to other well-established risk factors, the early activation of coagulation systems present in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage could potentially play a role in the incidence of deep-vein thrombosis. This study aims to identify possible predictors for deep-vein thrombosis related to subarachnoid hemorrhage. METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study on patients with a diagnosis of subarachnoid hemorrhage who presented to our institution between 1 January 2014 and 1 August 2018. We reviewed electronic medical records and analyzed several parameters such as Fisher scale, World Federation of Neurosurgical Surgeons scale, aneurysm site, surgical or endovascular treatment, decompressive craniectomy, vasospasm, infection (meningitis and pneumonia), presence of motor deficit, length of stay in the ICU, length of hospital stay, number of days under ventilator support, d-dimer at hospitalization, and the time to thromboprophylaxis (days). RESULTS The univariate analysis showed that intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage, d-dimer at hospitalization, the time to thromboprophylaxis, motor deficit, and aneurysm located at the internal carotid artery were statistically significant factors. Intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage (OR 2,78 95%CI 1.07-7.12), motor deficit (OR 3.46; 95%CI 1.37-9.31), and d-dimer at hospitalization (OR 1.002 95% CI 1.001-1.003) were demonstrated as independent risk factors for deep-vein thrombosis. Length of hospital stay was also found to be significantly longer in patients who developed deep-vein thrombosis (p value 0.018). CONCLUSION Elevated d-dimer level at the time of hospitalization, motor deficit, and the presence of an intraparenchymal hemorrhage are independent risk factors for deep-vein thrombosis. Patients with DVT also had a significantly longer hospital stay. Even though further studies are needed, patients with elevated d-dimer at hospitalization and intraparenchymal cerebral hemorrhage may benefit from a more aggressive screening strategy for deep-vein thrombosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVE Sympathetic nervous system activation after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is associated with complications and poor outcome. In this systematic review and meta-analysis, we investigate the effect of beta-blockers on outcome after aSAH. METHODS The review was prospectively registered with PROSPERO (CRD42019111784). We performed a systematic literature search of MEDLINE, EMBASE, the Cochrane Library, published conference proceedings, and abstracts. Eligible studies included both randomized controlled trials and observational studies up to October 2018, reporting the effect of beta-blocker therapy on the following outcomes in aSAH: mortality, vasospasm, delayed cerebral ischemia, infarction or stroke, cardiac dysfunction, and functional outcomes. Studies involving traumatic SAH were excluded. Citations were reviewed, and data extracted independently by two investigators using a standardized proforma. RESULTS We identified 819 records with 16 studies (four were randomized controlled trials) including 6702 patients selected for analysis. Exposure to beta-blockade either before or after aSAH was associated with a significant reduction in unadjusted mortality (RR 0.63, 95% CI 0.42-0.93, p = 0.02). A significant reduction in unadjusted mortality was also seen in prospective trials of post-event beta-blockade (RR 0.51, 95% CI 0.28-0.93, p = 0.03). Statistically significant differences were not seen for other outcomes investigated. CONCLUSIONS In adult patients with aSAH, beta-blocker therapy is associated with a mortality benefit. Studies are generally of a low quality with considerable clinical heterogeneity. Prospective large interventional trials with patient centered outcomes are required to validate this finding.

Abstract
Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) and cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) are rare cerebrovascular pathologies. Here, we report the extremely rare coincidental presentation of both entities and discuss the likely relationship in aetiology and their optimal management. A female patient presented with headache and progressive neurological deficits. Cranial computed tomography and contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)/magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) revealed dural venous sinus thrombosis, left-sided frontal and parietal infarcts, and left middle and anterior cerebral artery stenosis. In addition, left hemispheric subarachnoid haemosiderosis was seen on MRI. Following standard anticoagulation therapy for CVT, she represented with acute SAH. Digital subtraction angiography revealed a ruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysm and left middle cerebral artery/anterior cerebral artery vasospasms that were responsive to intra-arterial nimodipine. The latter were already present on the previous MRI, and had most likely prevented the detection of the aneurysm initially. The aneurysm was successfully coil embolised, and the patient improved clinically. Despite this case being an extremely rare coincidence, a ruptured aneurysm should be excluded in the presence of CVT and non-sulcal SAH. A careful consideration of treatment of both pathologies is required, since anticoagulation may have a potentially negative impact on aneurysmal bleeding.
