Abstract
Background and Aim The prognostic potential of cardiac troponin (cTn) in acute stroke patients has been a subject of ongoing debate. Our objective was to provide a comprehensive evidence for predicting mortality in acute stroke patients by using the elevated troponin levels. Methods We conducted an extensive literature search, including PubMed, EMbase, and Trip Databases, covering studies published up to September 30, 2023. We computed risk ratios (RR) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), performed sensitivity analysis, and conducted trial sequential analysis (TSA). Results In total, 53 studies were analyzed, with 37 focusing on acute ischemic stroke (AIS), 11 on subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), and 7 on Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Elevated cTn levels were significantly showed a higher predictive risk for In-hospital mortality in both AIS (RR=3.80, 95% CI; 2.82 to 5.12) as well as SAH (RR=2.23, 95% CI; 1.64 to 3.02). However, no significant predictive risk between elevated cTn levels and in-hospital mortality for ICH patients (RR=1.13, 95% CI: 0.46 to 2.79). A similar pattern was observed for elevated cTn levels, indicating an increased risk of last follow-up mortality for AIS (RR=2.41, 95% CI: 1.98 to 2.93) and SAH (RR=3.08, 95% CI: 2.25 to 4.21). Conclusion Elevated troponin levels can serve as a promising predictive marker for both in-hospital and last follow-up mortality in AIS and SAH patients but not in ICH patients. Further prospective studies are needed to validate our findings along with exploring the preventive management of mortality in acute stroke settings.

Impact of high-sensitivity troponin elevation and dynamic changes on 90-day mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke after mechanical thrombectomy: results from an observational cohort. J Neurointerv Surg 2023; 15:1142-1147.

Abstract
BACKGROUND A study was undertaken to evaluate the impact of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) elevation and hs-cTnI dynamic changes on 90-day mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with mechanical thrombectomy (MT). METHODS Patients with AIS receiving MT were included in the study. Sixty hours after AIS onset, hs-cTnI levels were measured before and after MT to determine elevated and dynamic changes. Patients were stratified into either normal or hs-cTnI elevation groups according to the pre-MT hs-cTnI cut-off value of 0.03 ng/L. hs-cTnI dynamic changes were defined as an increase or decrease of more than 20% pre-MT and post-MT, and at least one hs-cTnI level >0.03 ng/L. Multivariate Cox regression models were used to investigate the association between hs-cTnI elevation, hs-cTnI dynamic changes, and 90-day mortality in patients with AIS after MT. RESULTS A total of 423 patients with AIS after MT were included in our final analysis, of whom only 72 (17%) showed hs-cTnI elevation. Post-MT hs-cTnI retesting was performed in 354 patients, and 90 (25.4%) patients presented with hs-cTnI dynamic changes. 119 patients died within 90 days. After adjusting for potential confounding factors, the Cox regression model showed that patients with hs-cTnI dynamic changes, rather than hs-cTnI elevation, were associated with 90-day mortality (p<0.05). Compared with the hs-cTnI non-dynamic changes, these results showed that a statistical association was present between rising hs-cTnI dynamic changes and 90-day mortality (p>0.05). CONCLUSIONS hs-cTnI dynamic changes, dominated by the rising pattern rather than hs-cTnI elevation, were independent factors associated with 90-day mortality in patients with AIS after MT, especially in elderly subjects.

Elevated troponin I levels on admission predict long-term mortality in patients with acute cerebral infarction following thrombolysis. Neurol Sci 2022; 43:5431-5439. [PMID: 35579823 PMCID: PMC9385800 DOI: 10.1007/s10072-022-06116-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Accepted: 04/30/2022] [Indexed: 11/27/2022]
Abstract
Background/objective Cardiac diseases are frequently accompanied by elevated levels of biomarkers, among which, troponin is commonly investigated. The levels of plasma cardiac troponin I (cTnI), which has been shown to predict short-term mortality, are elevated in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI). However, few studies have assessed the association between cTnI concentration and long-term mortality in patients with ACI following thrombolysis. Methods Patients with ACI admitted between January 1, 2014, and December 31, 2016, were registered. Data on demographics and outcomes with elevated cTnI levels were also collected. Results A total of 145 patients with ACI were recruited; 97 (66%), 30 (20%), and 18 (12%) patients had cTnI concentrations < 0.030 (group 1), 0.030–0.10 (group 2), and > 0.10 μg/L (group 3), respectively. cTnI elevation was associated with older age, atrial fibrillation, congestive heart failure, renal insufficiency, coronary artery disease, stroke severity (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score), and prior smoking history at admission. After adjusting for comorbidities and severity at 3 months after ACI, cTnI elevation on admission was significantly associated with ascending 5-year mortality (hazard ratio, 1.80; 95% confidence interval, 1.22–2.65). Conclusions Even after adjusting for several possible confounders, cTnI elevation in patients with ACI treated with rt-PA was associated with a 1.80-fold increased risk of 5-year mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cardiac troponin (cTn) is a specific biomarker of cardiac injury and elevation of cTn is related to increased mortality. However, prognostic value of cTn in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) still remains to be elucidated. The aim of this review is to explore the strength of association between elevated cTn and mortality after AIS onset. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched from inception to July 12, 2021 without language restriction. All studies reporting the association between cTn on admission and mortality in AIS patients have been included in this review. Meta-analysis was performed for overall and pre-specified subgroup risk ratios (RR) were obtained using a random effect model. Study quality was assessed for each included study. RESULTS There were 20 studies included in this meta-analysis with 9779 AIS patients met the inclusion criteria. There was significant association between elevated cTn and mortality in patients with AIS (RR 3.87; 95% CI 3.24-4.63). The association was consistent across the pre-specified subgroup analyses by type of troponin (cTnT or cTnI), assay of troponin (conventional or high-sensitivity), region (Asian or Non-Asian), definite exclusion of ACS/AMI patients or not (yes or not mentioned), adjusted AF, HF and impaired renal function or not (yes or no). CONCLUSIONS AIS patients with elevated cTn at baseline has an increased risk of mortality. Early and routine evaluation of cTn may contribute to timely detection of comorbid cardiac injury and prevent unfavorable outcomes in patients with AIS. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER CRD42020160912.

Abstract
Background To assess the clinical outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in elderly large vessel occlusion (LVO)-related acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods Between January 2019 and December 2020, consecutive AF patients who received EVT due to anterior-circulation stroke were enrolled. The primary outcome was modified Rankin scale (mRS) score at 90 days. Secondary outcomes included all-cause mortality, the recanalization status after EVT (assessed using modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction scale, mTICI) and any intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). A multivariate logistic regression model was performed to identify predictors of the functional outcome. Results A total of 148 eligible patients were finally enrolled. Among them, 42 were ≥ 80 years old. Compared to their younger counterparts, patients aged ≥80 years had lower likelihood of good functional outcome (mRS score 0–2) at 90 days (26.2% vs. 48.1%, P = 0.015), less satisfied recanalization (mTICI, 2b-3) (78.6% vs. 94.3%, P = 0.004) and higher all-cause mortality rate (35.7% vs. 14.2%, P = 0.003). A multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that age ≥ 80 years at baseline were the significant predictors for a poor functional outcome (OR: 3.72, 95% CI: 1.17–11.89, p = 0.027). Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) prior to EVT and longer time intervals from onset of symptoms to EVT tended to be associated with poor functional outcome in patients ≥80 years old. Conclusions Age ≥ 80 years was a significant predictor of unfavorable outcomes after EVT for AIS patients with AF. An increased risk of adverse events must be balanced against the benefit from EVT in elderly patients with AF.

Abstract
There is an ongoing need for accurate prognostic biomarkers in the milieu of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) receiving reperfusion therapy. Neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) has been implicated in emergency medicine and acute stroke setting as an important biomarker in the prognosis of patients. However, there are ongoing questions around its accuracy and translation into clinical practice given suboptimal sensitivity and specificity results, as well as varying thresholds and lack of clarity around which NLR time points are most clinically indicative. This article provides a comprehensive overview of the role of NLR in AIS patients receiving reperfusion therapy and perspectives on areas of future research. NLR may be an important biomarker in risk stratifying patients in AIS to identify and select those who are more likely to benefit from reperfusion therapy. Appropriate clinical decision-making tools and models are required to harness the predictive value of NLR, which could be useful in identifying and monitoring high-risk patients to guide early treatment and achieve improved outcomes. Our understanding of the role of NLR in the immunopathogenesis of AIS is also suboptimal, which hinders the ability to translate this into clinical practice.

Prognostic value of elevated high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T in acute ischemic stroke patients treated with endovascular thrombectomy in late time windows. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2021; 210:106921. [PMID: 34571339 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2021.106921] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2021] [Revised: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 08/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/05/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the prognostic significance of high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) elevation in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the anterior circulation treated with endovascular thrombectomy (ET) in late time windows and identify the factors associated with hs-cTnT elevation. METHODS A total of 152 AIS patients treated with ET in late time windows between January 2018 and August 2020 were included in this study. Patients were stratified into either normal or elevated hs-cTnT groups according to a cutoff value of 14 ng/L on admission. Baseline demographic features, comorbidities, and imaging data were compared between the elevated hs-cTnT group (>14 ng/L) and the normal hs-cTnT group (≤14 ng/L). After accounting for these clinical characteristics, the association between hs-cTnT elevation and clinical outcomes was evaluated. RESULTS 69(45.4%) patients had elevated hs-cTnT levels (>14 ng/L) on admission. The multivariable logistic regression analysis demonstrated that hs-cTnT elevation was independently associated with 3-month all-cause mortality (P = 0.014, OR 3.907, 95% CI 1.313-11.625) and 3-month composite unfavorable outcome (mRS 3-6) (P = 0.001, OR 5.099, 95% CI 1.873-13.888). Old age (P = 0.002, OR 1.053, 95% CI 1.020-1.088), admission NIHSS score (P = 0.015, OR 1.057, 95% CI 1.011-1.106), congestive heart failure (P = 0.016, OR 4.341, 95% CI 1.322-14.257) and coronary artery disease (P = 0.020, OR 2.914, 95% CI 1.183-7.180) were independently associated with hs-cTnT elevation. CONCLUSION In AIS patients treated with ET in late time windows, elevated hs-cTnT is independently associated with an increased risk of 3-month poor outcomes. Old age, high admission NIHSS score, coronary artery disease, and congestive heart failure are independent predictors of hs-cTnT elevation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The benefit of endovascular thrombectomy for patients with in-hospital stroke remains unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to compare the endovascular thrombectomy outcomes between in-hospital stroke and community-onset stroke among patients with acute ischemic stroke. METHODS From January 2015 to July 2019, 362 consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation received endovascular thrombectomy in our centre. After propensity score matching with a ratio of 1:2 (in-hospital stroke:community-onset stroke), clinical characteristics and functional outcomes were compared between in-hospital stroke and community-onset stroke groups. RESULTS Thirty-six patients with in-hospital stroke and 72 patients with community-onset stroke were enrolled. The number of patients with New York Heart Association classification III/IV (41.7% vs. 6.9%, p < 0.001) and with underlying cancer (25.0% vs. 2.8%, p < 0.001) was higher in the in-hospital stroke than in the community-onset stroke group. The intravenous thrombolysis rate was lower in the in-hospital stroke group (13.9% vs. 43.1%, p = 0.002). No significant difference in symptom onset to puncture (p = 0.618), symptom onset to recanalisation (p = 0.618) or good reperfusion (modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction ≥2b) rates (p = 0.852) was found between the groups. The favourable clinical outcome trend (modified Rankin scale ≤2 at 90 days) was inferior, but acceptable, in the in-hospital stroke, group compared to the community-onset stroke group (30.6% vs. 41.7%, p = 0.262). CONCLUSION Patients with in-hospital stroke had more disadvantageous comorbidities than those with community-onset stroke. Cardiac dysfunction seems to be associated with poor outcomes after thrombectomy. Nevertheless, endovascular thrombectomy still appears to be safe and effective for patients with in-hospital stroke.
