Neurocrit Care 2024:10.1007/s12028-024-02084-1. [PMID: 39117965 DOI: 10.1007/s12028-024-02084-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/18/2024] [Accepted: 07/26/2024] [Indexed: 08/10/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral blood flow (CBF) decreases in the first few hours or days following resuscitation from cardiac arrest, increasing the risk of secondary cerebral injury. Using data from experimental studies performed in minipigs, we investigated the relationships of parameters derived from arterial and jugular bulb blood gas analyses and lactate levels (jugular bulb parameters), which have been used as indicators of cerebral perfusion and metabolism, with CBF and the cerebral lactate to creatine ratio measured with dynamic susceptibility contrast magnetic resonance imaging and proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy, respectively. METHODS We retrospectively analyzed 36 sets of the following data obtained during the initial hours following resuscitation from cardiac arrest: percent of measured CBF relative to that at the prearrest baseline (%CBF), cerebral lactate to creatine ratio, and jugular bulb parameters, including jugular bulb oxygen saturation, jugular bulb lactate, arterial-jugular bulb oxygen content difference, cerebral extraction of oxygen, jugular bulb-arterial lactate content difference, lactate oxygen index, estimated respiratory quotient, and arterial-jugular bulb hydrogen ion content difference. Linear mixed-effects models were constructed to examine the effects of each jugular bulb parameter on the %CBF and cerebral lactate to creatine ratio. RESULTS The arterial-jugular bulb oxygen content difference (P = 0.047) and cerebral extraction of oxygen (P = 0.030) had a significant linear relationship with %CBF, but they explained only 12.0% (95% confidence interval [CI] 0.002-0.371) and 14.2% (95% CI 0.005-0.396) of the total %CBF variance, respectively. The arterial-jugular bulb hydrogen ion content difference had a significant linear relationship with cerebral lactate to creatine ratio (P = 0.037) but explained only 13.8% (95% CI 0.003-0.412) of the total variance in the cerebral lactate to creatine ratio. None of the other jugular bulb parameters were related to the %CBF or cerebral lactate to creatine ratio. CONCLUSIONS In conclusion, none of the jugular bulb parameters appeared to provide sufficient information on cerebral perfusion and metabolism in this setting.

Predictive Performance of Neuron-Specific Enolase (NSE) for Survival after Resuscitation from Cardiac Arrest: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. J Clin Med 2023; 12:7655. [PMID: 38137724 PMCID: PMC10744223 DOI: 10.3390/jcm12247655] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2023] [Revised: 12/07/2023] [Accepted: 12/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The prediction of outcomes following cardiac arrest continues to provide significant difficulties. A preferred strategy involves adopting a multimodal approach, which encompasses the careful evaluation of the biomarker neuron-specific enolase (NSE). This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to gather and summarize new and existing evidence on the prediction effect of neuron-specific enolase for survival to hospital discharge among adult patients with cardiac arrest. We searched PubMed Central, Scopus, EMBASE databases, and the Cochrane Library without language restrictions from their inceptions until 30 October 2023 and checked the reference lists of the included studies. Pooled results were reported as standardized mean differences (SMDs) and were presented with corresponding 95% confidence intervals (CIs). The primary outcome was survival to hospital discharge (SHD). Eighty-six articles with 10,845 participants were included. NSE showed a notable degree of specificity in its ability to predict mortality as well as neurological status among individuals who experienced cardiac arrest (p < 0.05). This study demonstrates the ability to predict fatality rates and neurological outcomes, both during the time of admission and at various time intervals after cardiac arrest. The use of NSE in a multimodal neuroprognostication algorithm has promise in improving the accuracy of prognoses for persons who have undergone cardiac arrest.

Yu JW, Zhao DL, Li RY, Wu Y, Chen XH, Ge H, Li C, Ju S. Association of culprit plaque enhancement ratio, hypoperfusion and HbA1c with recurrent ischemic stroke in patients with atherosclerotic stenosis of the middle cerebral artery. Eur J Radiol 2023; 168:111107. [PMID: 37776582 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejrad.2023.111107] [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: 06/10/2023] [Revised: 09/04/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 10/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the differences in intracranial culprit plaque characteristics of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), collateral circulation and hypoperfusion in patients with and without recurrent ischemic stroke and to identify the association with the recurrent ischemic cerebrovascular events. METHOD Eighty-six patients with acute/subacute ischemic stroke caused by atherosclerotic plaques of the MCA were retrospectively enrolled and grouped into patients with recurrence (n = 36) and without recurrence (n = 50). All patients underwent high-resolution vessel wall imaging and dynamic susceptibility contrast-enhanced perfusion weighted imaging. The differences in culprit plaque characteristics, collateral circulation and hypoperfusion in the territory of the stenotic MCA were assessed between the two groups. The relationship between plaque characteristics and hypoperfusion was evaluated. The independent factors of recurrent ischemic stroke were identified by logistic regression analyses. RESULTS Higher HbA1c, culprit plaque enhancement grade, culprit plaque enhancement ratio, and lower time to peak map based on the Alberta Stroke Program Early CT score (TTP-ASPECTS) were observed in the recurrence group(all p < 0.050). Both plaque enhancement grade and enhancement ratio were significantly associated with TTP-ASPECTS (p = 0.030 and 0.039, respectively). HbA1c, culprit plaque enhancement ratio and TTP-ASPECTS were independent factors of the recurrence of ischemic stroke (all p < 0.050). The area under the curve of the combination including the above factors (AUC = 0.819) was significantly higher than that of any variable alone after adjustment (all p < 0.050). CONCLUSIONS Culprit plaque enhancement ratio, TTP-ASPECTS and HbA1c were independent factors of recurrent ischemic stroke. Their combination improved the accuracy in identifying the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke.
