Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES There is a clear need to characterize and validate molecular biomarkers of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), in an effort to improve diagnostics, especially in the context of patients with Alzheimer disease (AD) receiving immunotherapies (for whom underlying CAA is the driver of amyloid-related imaging abnormalities). We performed an updated meta-analysis of 5 core CSF biomarkers (Aβ42, Aβ40, Aβ438, total tau [T-tau], and phosphorylated tau [P-tau]) to assess which of these are most altered in sporadic CAA. METHODS We systematically searched PubMed for eligible studies reporting data on CSF biomarkers reflecting APP metabolism (Aβ42, Aβ40, Aβ38), neurodegeneration (T-tau), and tangle pathology (P-tau), in symptomatic sporadic CAA cohorts (based on the Boston criteria) vs control groups and/or vs patients with AD. Biomarker performance was assessed in random-effects meta-analysis based on ratio of mean (RoM) biomarker concentrations in (1) patients with CAA to controls and (2) CAA to patients with AD. RoM >1 indicates higher biomarker concentration in CAA vs comparison population, and RoM <1 indicates higher concentration in comparison groups. RESULTS 8 studies met inclusion criteria: a total of 11 CAA cohorts (n = 289), 9 control cohorts (n = 310), and 8 AD cohorts (n = 339). Overall included studies were of medium quality based on our assessment tools. CAA to controls had lower mean level of all amyloid markers with CSF Aβ42, Aβ40, and Aβ38 RoMs of 0.46 (95% CI 0.38-0.55, p < 0.0001), 0.70 (95% CI 0.63-0.78, p < 0.0001), and 0.71 (95% CI 0.56-0.89, p = 0.003), respectively. CSF T-tau and P-tau RoMs of patients with CAA to controls were both greater than 1: 1.56 (95% CI 1.32-1.84, p < 0.0001) and 1.31 (95% CI 1.13-1.51, p < 0.0001), respectively. Differentiation between CAA and AD was strong for CSF Aβ40 (RoM 0.76, 95% CI 0.69-0.83, p < 0.0001) and Aβ38 (RoM 0.55, 95% CI 0.38-0.81, p < 0.0001), but not Aβ42 (RoM 1.00; 95% CI 0.81-1.23, p = 0.970). For T-tau and P-tau, average CSF ratios in patients with CAA vs AD were 0.64 (95% CI 0.58-0.71, p < 0.0001) and 0.64 (95% CI 0.58-0.71, p < 0.0001), respectively. DISCUSSION Specific CSF patterns of Aβ42, Aβ40, Aβ38, T-tau, and P-tau might serve as molecular biomarkers of CAA, in research and clinical settings, offering the potential to improve the clinical diagnostic approach pathway in specific scenarios.

Abstract
Autosomal dominant Alzheimer's disease (ADAD) and Down syndrome (DS) constitute genetic forms of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The study of these forms has been crucial in understanding the biomarker changes and disease progression, notably in advancing our knowledge of the natural history of AD. However, some specific characteristics of biomarkers in genetically determined forms and, most importantly, the near full penetrance and predictability of disease onset lead to a very different context of use for biomarkers in these populations. This article delves into the similarities and differences in biomarker profiles between genetically determined AD and sporadic cases, discussing the implications for research and clinical practice. It also emphasizes the need to account for factors that may affect biomarker reliability differently in genetically determined AD. Enhancing our understanding of the disease will pave the way for more personalized therapeutic approaches for affected individuals.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION There are limited data regarding cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma biomarkers among patients with Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy (CAA). We sought to investigate the levels of four biomarkers [β-amyloids (Aβ42 and Aβ40), total tau (tau) and phosphorylated tau (p-tau)] in CAA patients compared to healthy controls (HC) and patients with Alzheimer Disease (AD). PATIENTS AND METHODS A systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies, including also a 5 year single-center cohort study, with available data on CSF and plasma biomarkers in symptomatic sporadic CAA versus HC and AD was conducted. Biomarkers' comparisons were investigated using random-effects models based on the ratio of mean (RoM) biomarker concentrations. RoM < 1 and RoM > 1 indicate lower and higher biomarker concentration in CAA compared to another population, respectively. RESULTS We identified nine cohorts, comprising 327 CAA patients (mean age: 71 ± 5 years; women: 45%) versus 336 HC (mean age: 65 ± 5 years; women: 45%) and 384 AD patients (mean age: 68 ± 3 years; women: 53%) with available data on CSF biomarkers. CSF Aβ42 levels [RoM: 0.47; 95% CI: 0.36-0.62; p < 0.0001], Aβ40 levels [RoM: 0.70; 95% CI: 0.63-0.79; p < 0.0001] and the ratio Aβ42/Aβ40 [RoM: 0.62; 95% CI: 0.39-0.98; p = 0.0438] differentiated CAA from HC. CSF Aβ40 levels [RoM: 0.73; 95% CI: 0.64-0.83; p = 0.0003] differentiated CAA from AD. CSF tau and p-tau levels differentiated CAA from HC [RoM: 1.71; 95% CI: 1.41-2.09; p = 0.0002 and RoM: 1.44; 95% CI: 1.20-1.73; p = 0.0014, respectively] and from AD [RoM: 0.65; 95% CI: 0.58-0.72; p < 0.0001 and RoM: 0.64; 95% CI: 0.57-0.71; p < 0.0001, respectively]. Plasma Aβ42 [RoM: 1.14; 95% CI: 0.89-1.45; p = 0.2079] and Aβ40 [RoM: 1.07; 95% CI: 0.91-1.25; p = 0.3306] levels were comparable between CAA and HC. CONCLUSIONS CAA is characterized by a distinct CSF biomarker pattern compared to HC and AD. CSF Aβ40 levels are lower in CAA compared to HC and AD, while tau and p-tau levels are higher in CAA compared to HC, but lower in comparison to AD patients.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is a highly prevalent small vessel disease in ageing population with potential severe complications including lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), cognitive impairment, and dementia. Although diagnosis of CAA was made only with postmortem neuropathological examination a few decades ago, diagnosing CAA without pathological proof is now allowed in living patients. This review focuses on recently identified biomarkers of CAA and current diagnostic criteria. RECENT FINDINGS Over the past few years, clinicians and researchers have shown increased interest for CAA, and important advances have been made. Thanks to recent insights into mechanisms involved in CAA and advances in structural and functional neuroimaging, PET amyloid tracers, cerebrospinal fluid and plasma biomarkers analysis, a growing number of biomarkers of CAA have been identified. Imaging-based diagnostic criteria including emerging biomarkers have been recently developed or updated, enabling accurate and earlier diagnosis of CAA in living patients. SUMMARY Recent advances in neuroimaging allow diagnosing CAA in the absence of pathological examination. Current imaging-based criteria have high diagnostic performance in patients presenting with ICH, but is more limited in other clinical context such as cognitively impaired patients or asymptomatic individuals. Further research is still needed to improve diagnostic accuracy.

Abstract
Plasma amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau are emerging as accessible biomarkers for Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, many assays exist with variable test performances, highlighting the need for a comparative assessment to identify the most valid assays for future use in AD and to apply to other settings in which the same biomarkers may be useful, namely, cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). CAA is a progressive cerebrovascular disease characterized by deposition of Aβ40 and Aβ42 in cortical and leptomeningeal vessels. Novel immunotherapies for AD can induce amyloid-related imaging abnormalities resembling CAA-related inflammation. Few studies have evaluated plasma biomarkers in CAA. Identifying a CAA signature could facilitate diagnosis, prognosis, and a safer selection of patients with AD for emerging immunotherapies. This review evaluates studies that compare the diagnostic test performance of plasma biomarker techniques in AD and cerebrovascular and plasma biomarker profiles of CAA; it also discusses novel hypotheses and future avenues for plasma biomarker research in CAA.

Abstract
Alzheimer's disease (AD) affects over 6 million people over the age of 65. The advent of new anti-amyloid monoclonal antibodies as treatment for early Alzheimer's disease these immunotherapeutics may slow disease progression but also pose significant risks. Amyloid related imaging abnormalities (ARIA) identified on MRI following administration of these new monoclonal antibodies can cause both brain edema (ARIA-E) and hemorrhage (ARIA-H). While most ARIA is asymptomatic, some patients can develop headache, confusion, nausea, dizziness, seizures and in rare cases death. By analyzing lecanemab, aducanumab, gantenerumab, donanemab, and bapineuzumab clinical trials; risk factors for developing ARIA can be identified to mitigate some of the ARIA risk. Risk factors for developing ARIA-E are a positive Apoε4 carrier status and prior multiple cerebral microhemorrhages. Risk factors for ARIA-H are age, antithrombotic use, and history of prior strokes. With lecanemab, ARIA-E and ARIA-H were seen at lower rates 12 and 17%, respectively, compared to aducanumab (ARIA-E 35% and ARIA-H 19%) in treated patients. ARIA risk factors have impacted inclusion and exclusion criteria, determining who can receive lecanemab. In some clinics, almost 90% of Alzheimer's patients are excluded from receiving these new anti-amyloid therapeutics. This review aims to discuss risk factors of ARIA and highlight important areas for further research. With more anti-amyloid monoclonal antibodies approved by the Food and Drug Administration, considering patient risk factors for developing ARIA is important to identify to minimize patient's risk while receiving these new therapies.

Abstract
Cerebral Amyloid Angiopathy (CAA) is a neurological disorder characterized by the deposition of amyloid plaques in the walls of cerebral blood vessels. This condition poses significant challenges in terms of understanding its underlying mechanisms, accurate diagnosis, and effective treatment strategies. This article aims to shed light on the complexities of CAA by providing insights into its pathogenesis, diagnosis, and treatment options. The pathogenesis of CAA involves the accumulation of amyloid beta (Aβ) peptides in cerebral vessels, leading to vessel damage, impaired blood flow, and subsequent cognitive decline. Various genetic and environmental factors contribute to the development and progression of CAA, and understanding these factors is crucial for targeted interventions. Accurate diagnosis of CAA often requires advanced imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or positron emission tomography (PET) scans, to detect characteristic amyloid deposits in the brain. Early and accurate diagnosis enables appropriate management and intervention strategies. Treatment of CAA focuses on preventing further deposition of amyloid plaques, managing associated symptoms, and reducing the risk of complications such as cerebral hemorrhage. Currently, there are no disease-modifying therapies specifically approved for CAA. However, several experimental treatments targeting Aβ clearance and anti-inflammatory approaches are being investigated in clinical trials, offering hope for future therapeutic advancements.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Vascular amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation is the hallmark of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). The composition of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of CAA patients may serve as a diagnostic biomarker of CAA. We studied the diagnostic potential of the peptides Aβ38, Aβ40, Aβ42, and Aβ43 in patients with sporadic CAA (sCAA), hereditary Dutch-type CAA (D-CAA), and Alzheimer disease (AD). METHODS Aβ peptides were quantified by immunoassays in a discovery group (26 patients with sCAA and 40 controls), a validation group (40 patients with sCAA, 40 patients with AD, and 37 controls), and a group of 22 patients with D-CAA and 54 controls. To determine the diagnostic accuracy, the area under the curve (AUC) was calculated using a receiver operating characteristic curve with 95% confidence interval (CI). RESULTS We found decreased levels of all Aβ peptides in sCAA patients and D-CAA patients compared to controls. The difference was most prominent for Aβ42 (AUC of sCAA vs controls for discovery: 0.90, 95% CI = 0.82-0.99; for validation: 0.94, 95% CI = 0.89-0.99) and Aβ43 (AUC of sCAA vs controls for discovery: 0.95, 95% CI = 0.88-1.00; for validation: 0.91, 95% CI = 0.83-1.0). All Aβ peptides except Aβ43 were also decreased in sCAA compared to AD (CSF Aβ38: AUC = 0.82, 95% CI = 0.71-0.93; CSF Aβ40: AUC = 0.88, 95% CI = 0.80-0.96; CSF Aβ42: AUC = 0.79, 95% CI = 0.66-0.92). INTERPRETATION A combined biomarker panel of CSF Aβ38, Aβ40, Aβ42, and Aβ43 has potential to differentiate sCAA from AD and controls, and D-CAA from controls. ANN NEUROL 2023;93:1173-1186.

[PMID: 37389304 PMCID: PMC10300526 DOI: 10.1093/braincomms/fcad159] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/27/2022] [Revised: 03/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/01/2023] Open
Abstract
Integrating cerebrospinal fluid-biomarkers into diagnostic workup of patients with sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy may support early and correct identification. We aimed to identify and validate clinical- and cerebrospinal fluid-biomarkers for in vivo diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy. This observational cohort study screened 2795 consecutive patients admitted for cognitive complaints to the academic departments of neurology and psychiatry over a 10-year period (2009-2018). We included 372 patients with available hemosiderin-sensitive MR imaging and cerebrospinal fluid-based neurochemical dementia diagnostics, i.e. Aβ40, Aβ42, t-tau, p-tau. We investigated the association of clinical- and cerebrospinal fluid-biomarkers with the MRI-based diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy, applying confounder-adjusted modelling, receiver operating characteristic and unsupervised cluster analyses. We identified 67 patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy, 76 patients with Alzheimer's disease, 75 patients with mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease, 76 patients with mild cognitive impairment with unlikely Alzheimer's disease and 78 healthy controls. Patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy showed a specific cerebrospinal fluid pattern: average concentration of Aß40 [13 792 pg/ml (10 081-18 063)] was decreased compared to all controls (P < 0.05); Aß42 [634 pg/ml (492-834)] was comparable to Alzheimer's disease and mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (P = 0.10, P = 0.93) but decreased compared to mild cognitive impairment and healthy controls (both P < 0.001); p-tau [67.3 pg/ml (42.9-91.9)] and t-tau [468 pg/ml (275-698)] were decreased compared to Alzheimer's disease (P < 0.001, P = 0.001) and mild cognitive impairment due to Alzheimer's disease (P = 0.001, P = 0.07), but elevated compared to mild cognitive impairment and healthy controls (both P < 0.001). Multivariate modelling validated independent clinical association of cerebral amyloid angiopathy with older age [odds-ratio: 1.06, 95% confidence interval (1.02-1.10), P < 0.01], prior lobar intracerebral haemorrhage [14.00 (2.64-74.19), P < 0.01], prior ischaemic stroke [3.36 (1.58-7.11), P < 0.01], transient focal neurologic episodes (TFNEs) [4.19 (1.06-16.64), P = 0.04] and gait disturbance [2.82 (1.11-7.15), P = 0.03]. For cerebrospinal fluid-biomarkers per 1 pg/ml, both lower Aß40 [0.9999 (0.9998-1.0000), P < 0.01] and lower Aß42 levels [0.9989 (0.9980-0.9998), P = 0.01] provided an independent association with cerebral amyloid angiopathy controlled for all aforementioned clinical confounders. Both amyloid biomarkers showed good discrimination for diagnosis of cerebral amyloid angiopathy among adjusted receiver operating characteristic analyses (area under the receiver operating characteristic curves, Aß40: 0.80 (0.73-0.86), P < 0.001; Aß42: 0.81 (0.75-0.88), P < 0.001). Unsupervised Euclidian clustering of all cerebrospinal fluid-biomarker-profiles resulted in distinct segregation of cerebral amyloid angiopathy patients from all controls. Together, we demonstrate that a distinctive set of cerebrospinal fluid-biomarkers effectively differentiate cerebral amyloid angiopathy patients from patients with Alzheimer's disease, mild cognitive impairment with or without underlying Alzheimer's disease, and healthy controls. Integrating our findings into a multiparametric approach may facilitate diagnosing cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and may aid clinical decision-making, but warrants future prospective validation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Nontraumatic convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) is a rare type of atypical subarachnoid hemorrhage. It mainly presents as a focal and transient neurological deficit with similar manifestations as transient ischemic attack.
CASE SUMMARY We report a case of a 64-year-old man who visited the hospital with paroxysmal left-sided numbness and weakness is presented in this study. Computed tomography examination indicated a high-density image of the right frontal-parietal sulcus. Digital subtraction angiography showed severe stenosis at the right anterior cerebral artery A2-A3 junction (stenosis rate approximately 70%).
CONCLUSION The findings of this case indicate that anterior cerebral artery stenosis may lead to the occurrence of cSAH.

Abstract
Background: Mid-regional pro-adrenomedullin (MR-proADM) is a novel biomarker for cognitive decline based on its association with cerebral small vessel disease (SVD). Cerebral microbleeds (MBs) are characteristic of SVD; however, a direct association between MR-proADM and MBs has not been explored. Objective: We aimed to examine whether circulating levels of MR-proADM are associated with the identification of MBs by brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and whether this association could be linked with cognitive impairment. Methods: In total, 214 participants (mean age: 75.9 years) without history of cerebral infarction or dementia were prospectively enrolled. All participants underwent brain MRI, higher cognitive function testing, blood biochemistry evaluation, lifestyle examination, and blood MR-proADM measurement using a time-resolved amplified cryptate emission technology assay. For between-group comparisons, the participants were divided into two groups according to whether their levels of MR-proADM were normal (< 0.65 nmol/L) or high (≥0.65 nmol/L). Results: The mean MR-proADM level was 0.515±0.127 nmol/L. There were significant between-group differences in age, hypertension, and HbA1c levels (p < 0.05). In the high MR-proADM group, the MR-proADM level was associated with the identification of MBs on brain MR images and indications of mild cognitive impairment (MCI). In participants with ≥3 MBs and MCI, high MR-proADM levels remained a risk factor after multivariate adjustment (OR: 2.94; p < 0.05). Conclusion: High levels of MR-proADM may be a surrogate marker for the early detection of cognitive decline associated with the formation of cerebral MBs. This marker would be valuable during routine clinical examinations of geriatric patients.

Abstract
Background: There is no consensus regarding the diagnostic value of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Alzheimer’s disease (AD) biomarkers in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Objective: To describe the CSF levels of Aβ 42, Aβ 40, total protein Tau, and phosphorylated-Tau (p-Tau) in a large series of probable CAA patients and to compare with AD patients in order to identify a specific pattern in CAA but also to look for correlations with the neuroimaging profile. Methods: We retrospectively included from 2 French centers probable CAA patients according to modified Boston criteria who underwent lumbar puncture (LP) with CSF AD biomarker quantifications. Two neurologists independently analyzed all MRI sequences. A logistic regression and Spearman’s correlation coefficient were used to identify correlation between MRI and CSF biomarkers in CAA. Results: We included 63 probable CAA and 27 AD patients. Among CAA 50.8% presented with decreased Aβ 42 level associated with elevated p-Tau and/or Tau, 34.9% with isolated decreased Aβ 42 level and 14.3% patients with normal Aβ 42 level. Compared to AD, CAA showed lower levels of Tau (p = 0.008), p-Tau (p = 0.004), and Aβ 40 (p = 0.001) but similar Aβ 42 level (p = 0.07). No correlation between Aβ 42 or Aβ 40 levels and neuroimaging was found. Conclusion: CSF biomarkers may improve the accuracy of the modified Boston criteria with altered profile in 85% of the patients fulfilling revised Boston criteria for probable CAA. Aβ 40 appears as an interesting selective biomarker in differential diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Limited data exist regarding the prevalence of clinical and neuroimaging manifestations among patients diagnosed with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). We sought to determine the prevalence of clinical phenotypes and radiological markers in patients with CAA. METHODS Systematic review and meta-analysis of studies including patients with CAA was conducted to primarily assess the prevalence of clinical phenotypes and neuroimaging markers as available in the included studies. Sensitivity analyses were performed based on the (1) retrospective or prospective study design and (2) probable or unspecified CAA status. We pooled the prevalence rates using random-effects models and assessed the heterogeneity using the Cochran Q and I2 statistics. RESULTS We identified 12 prospective and 34 retrospective studies including 7159 patients with CAA. The pooled prevalence rates were cerebral microbleeds (52% [95% CI, 43%-60%]; I2=93%), cortical superficial siderosis (49% [95% CI, 38%-59%]; I2=95%), dementia or mild cognitive impairment (50% [95% CI, 35%-65%]; I2=97%), intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH; 44% [95% CI, 27%-61%]; I2=98%), transient focal neurological episodes (48%; 10 studies [95% CI, 29%-67%]; I2=97%), lacunar infarcts (30% [95% CI, 25%-36%]; I2=78%), high grades of perivascular spaces located in centrum semiovale (56% [95% CI, 44%-67%]; I2=88%) and basal ganglia (21% [95% CI, 2%-51%]; I2=98%), and white matter hyperintensities with moderate or severe Fazekas score (53% [95% CI, 40%-65%]; I2=91%). The only neuroimaging marker that was associated with higher odds of recurrent ICH was cortical superficial siderosis (odds ratio, 1.57 [95% CI, 1.01-2.46]; I2=47%). Sensitivity analyses demonstrated a higher prevalence of ICH (53% versus 16%; P=0.03) and transient focal neurological episodes (57% versus 17%; P=0.03) among retrospective studies compared with prospective studies. No difference was documented between the prevalence rates based on the CAA status. CONCLUSIONS Approximately one-half of hospital-based cohort of CAA patients was observed to have cerebral microbleeds, cortical superficial siderosis, mild cognitive impairment, dementia, ICH, or transient focal neurological episodes. Cortical superficial siderosis was the only neuroimaging marker that was associated with higher odds of ICH recurrence. Future population-based studies among well-defined CAA cohorts are warranted to corroborate our findings.

Abstract
AIMS The aim of this work is to study the association of urokinase plasminogen activator (uPA) with development and progression of cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). MATERIALS AND METHODS We studied the expression of uPA mRNA by quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) and co-localisation of uPA with amyloid-β (Aβ) using immunohistochemistry in the cerebral vasculature of rTg-DI rats compared with wild-type (WT) rats and in a sporadic CAA (sCAA) patient and control subject using immunohistochemistry. Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) uPA levels were measured in rTg-DI and WT rats and in two separate cohorts of sCAA and Dutch-type hereditary CAA (D-CAA) patients and controls, using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISA). RESULTS The presence of uPA was clearly detected in the cerebral vasculature of rTg-DI rats and an sCAA patient but not in WT rats or a non-CAA human control. uPA expression was highly co-localised with microvascular Aβ deposits. In rTg-DI rats, uPA mRNA expression was highly elevated at 3 months of age (coinciding with the emergence of microvascular Aβ deposition) and sustained up to 12 months of age (with severe microvascular CAA deposition) compared with WT rats. CSF uPA levels were elevated in rTg-DI rats compared with WT rats (p = 0.03), and in sCAA patients compared with controls (after adjustment for age of subjects, p = 0.05 and p = 0.03). No differences in CSF uPA levels were found between asymptomatic and symptomatic D-CAA patients and their respective controls (after age-adjustment, p = 0.09 and p = 0.44). Increased cerebrovascular expression of uPA in CAA correlates with increased quantities of CSF uPA in rTg-DI rats and human CAA patients, suggesting that uPA could serve as a biomarker for CAA.

Abstract
Background To evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers in patients with probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) according to the modified Boston criteria in a retrospective multicentric cohort. Methods Beta-amyloid 1-40 (Aβ40), beta-amyloid 1-42 (Aβ42), total tau (t-tau), and phosphorylated tau 181 (p-tau181) were measured in 31 patients with probable CAA, 28 patients with Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and 30 controls. Receiver-operating characteristics (ROC) analyses were performed for the measured parameters as well as the Aβ42/40 ratio to estimate diagnostic parameters. A meta-analysis of all amenable published studies was conducted. Results In our data Aβ42/40 (AUC 0.88) discriminated best between CAA and controls while Aβ40 did not perform well (AUC 0.63). Differentiating between CAA and AD, p-tau181 (AUC 0.75) discriminated best in this study while Aβ40 (AUC 0.58) and Aβ42 (AUC 0.54) provided no discrimination. In the meta-analysis, Aβ42/40 (AUC 0.90) showed the best discrimination between CAA and controls followed by t-tau (AUC 0.79), Aβ40 (AUC 0.76), and p-tau181 (AUC 0.71). P-tau181 (AUC 0.76), Aβ40 (AUC 0.73), and t-tau (AUC 0.71) differentiated comparably between AD and CAA while Aβ42 (AUC 0.54) did not. In agreement with studies examining AD biomarkers, Aβ42/40 discriminated excellently between AD and controls (AUC 0.92–0.96) in this study as well as the meta-analysis. Conclusion The analyzed parameters differentiate between controls and CAA with clinically useful accuracy (AUC > ∼0.85) but not between CAA and AD. Since there is a neuropathological, clinical and diagnostic continuum between CAA and AD, other diagnostic markers, e.g., novel CSF biomarkers or other parameters might be more successful.

Abstract
Die zerebrale Amyloidangiopathie (CAA) tritt trotz verschiedener Pathomechanismen häufig koinzident zur Alzheimer-Demenz auf. Sie moduliert kognitive Defizite im Rahmen der Alzheimer-Erkrankung (AD) annehmbar durch additive Effekte, auch wenn die diesbezüglichen Zusammenhänge komplex sind. Die pathophysiologische Gemeinsamkeit beider Erkrankungen besteht in einem gestörten Amyloidmetabolismus, distinkt ist jedoch die pathologische Prozessierung von Amyloidvorläuferproteinen. Die CAA mit ihren verschiedenen Subtypen ist eine pathomechanistisch heterogene Gefäßerkrankung des Gehirns. Vaskuläre und parenchymatöse Amyloidablagerungen kommen gemeinsam, aber auch isoliert und unabhängig voneinander vor. Um den spezifischen Beitrag der CAA zu kognitiven Defiziten im Rahmen der AD zu untersuchen, bedarf es daher geeigneter diagnostischer Methoden, die der Komplexität der histopathologischen bzw. bildmorphologischen Charakteristika der CAA gerecht werden, sowie differenzierender testpsychometrischer Verfahren, anhand derer der Beitrag der CAA zu kognitiven Defiziten deskriptiv erfasst und damit ätiologisch besser zuordenbar wird.

Abstract
Objective To investigate the frequency, time-course and predictors of intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH), recurrent convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH), and ischemic stroke after cSAH associated with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Methods We performed a systematic review and international individual patient-data pooled analysis in patients with cSAH associated with probable or possible CAA diagnosed on baseline MRI using the modified Boston criteria. We used Cox proportional hazards models with a frailty term to account for between-cohort differences. Results We included 190 patients (mean age 74.5 years; 45.3% female) from 13 centers with 385 patient-years of follow-up (median 1.4 years). The risks of each outcome (per patient-year) were: ICH 13.2% (95% CI 9.9–17.4); recurrent cSAH 11.1% (95% CI 7.9–15.2); combined ICH, cSAH, or both 21.4% (95% CI 16.7–26.9), ischemic stroke 5.1% (95% CI 3.1–8) and death 8.3% (95% CI 5.6–11.8). In multivariable models, there is evidence that patients with probable CAA (compared to possible CAA) had a higher risk of ICH (HR 8.45, 95% CI 1.13–75.5, p = 0.02) and cSAH (HR 3.66, 95% CI 0.84–15.9, p = 0.08) but not ischemic stroke (HR 0.56, 95% CI 0.17–1.82, p = 0.33) or mortality (HR 0.54, 95% CI 0.16–1.78, p = 0.31). Conclusions Patients with cSAH associated with probable or possible CAA have high risk of future ICH and recurrent cSAH. Convexity SAH associated with probable (vs possible) CAA is associated with increased risk of ICH, and cSAH but not ischemic stroke. Our data provide precise risk estimates for key vascular events after cSAH associated with CAA which can inform management decisions.

Recurrent Lobar Hemorrhages and Multiple Cortical Superficial Siderosis in a Patient of Alzheimer's Disease With Homozygous APOE ε2 Allele Presenting Hypobetalipoproteinemia and Pathological Findings of 18F-THK5351 Positron Emission Tomography: A Case Report. Front Neurol 2021; 12:645625. [PMID: 34305778 PMCID: PMC8294698 DOI: 10.3389/fneur.2021.645625] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/15/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
In Alzheimer's disease, the apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) ε2 allele is a protective genetic factor, whereas the APOE ε4 allele is a genetic risk factor. However, both the APOE ε2 and the APOE ε4 alleles are genetic risk factors for lobar intracerebral hemorrhage. The reasons for the high prevalence of lobar intracerebral hemorrhage and the low prevalence of Alzheimer's disease with the APOE ε2 allele remains unknown. Here, we describe the case of a 79-year-old Japanese female with Alzheimer's disease, homozygous for the APOE ε2 allele. This patient presented with recurrent lobar hemorrhages and multiple cortical superficial siderosis. The findings on the 11C-labeled Pittsburgh Compound B-positron emission tomography (PET) were characteristic of Alzheimer's disease. 18F-THK5351 PET revealed that the accumulation of 18F-THK 5351 in the right pyramidal tract at the pontine level, the cerebral peduncle of the midbrain, and the internal capsule, reflecting the lesions of the previous lobar intracerebral hemorrhage in the right frontal lobe. Moreover, 18F-THK5351 accumulated in the bilateral globus pallidum, amygdala, caudate nuclei, and the substantia nigra of the midbrain, which were probably off-target reaction, by binding to monoamine oxidase B (MAO-B). 18F-THK5351 were also detected in the periphery of prior lobar hemorrhages and a cortical subarachnoid hemorrhage, as well as in some, but not all, areas affected by cortical siderosis. Besides, 18F-THK5351 retentions were observed in the bilateral medial temporal cortices and several cortical areas without cerebral amyloid angiopathy or prior hemorrhages, possibly where tau might accumulate. This is the first report of a patient with Alzheimer's disease, carrying homozygous APOE ε2 allele and presenting with recurrent lobar hemorrhages, multiple cortical superficial siderosis, and immunohistochemically vascular amyloid β. The 18F-THK5351 PET findings suggested MAO-B concentrated regions, astroglial activation, Waller degeneration of the pyramidal tract, neuroinflammation due to CAA related hemorrhages, and possible tau accumulation.

Abstract
Transient focal neurologic episodes (TFNEs) are brief disturbances in motor, somatosensory, visual, or language functions that can occur in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and may be difficult to distinguish from TIAs or other transient neurologic syndromes. They herald a high rate of future lobar intracerebral hemorrhage, making it imperative to differentiate them from TIAs to avoid potentially dangerous use of antithrombotic drugs. Cortical spreading depression or depolarization triggered by acute or chronic superficial brain bleeding, a contributor to brain injury in other neurologic diseases, may be the underlying mechanism. This review discusses diagnosis, pathophysiology, and management of CAA-related TFNEs.

Abstract
Background: There is limited data on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers in sporadic amyloid-β (Aβ) cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). Objective: To determine the profile of biomarkers relevant to neurodegenerative disease in the CSF of patients with CAA. Methods: We performed a detailed comparison of CSF markers, comparing patients with CAA, Alzheimer’s disease (AD), and control (CS) participants, recruited from the Biomarkers and Outcomes in CAA (BOCAA) study, and a Specialist Cognitive Disorders Service. Results: We included 10 CAA, 20 AD, and 10 CS participants (mean age 68.6, 62.5, and 62.2 years, respectively). In unadjusted analyses, CAA patients had a distinctive CSF biomarker profile, with significantly lower (p < 0.01) median concentrations of Aβ38, Aβ40, Aβ42, sAβPPα, and sAβPPβ. CAA patients had higher levels of neurofilament light (NFL) than the CS group (p < 0.01), but there were no significant differences in CSF total tau, phospho-tau, soluble TREM2 (sTREM2), or neurogranin concentrations. AD patients had higher total tau, phospho-tau and neurogranin than CS and CAA groups. In age-adjusted analyses, differences for the CAA group remained for Aβ38, Aβ40, Aβ42, and sAβPPβ. Comparing CAA patients with amyloid-PET positive (n = 5) and negative (n = 5) scans, PET positive individuals had lower (p < 0.05) concentrations of CSF Aβ42, and higher total tau, phospho-tau, NFL, and neurogranin concentrations, consistent with an “AD-like” profile. Conclusion: CAA has a characteristic biomarker profile, suggestive of a global, rather than selective, accumulation of amyloid species; we also provide evidence of different phenotypes according to amyloid-PET positivity. Further replication and validation of these preliminary findings in larger cohorts is needed.

Abstract
Cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is characterized by accumulation of amyloid β (Aβ) in walls of leptomeningeal vessels and cortical capillaries in the brain. The loss of integrity of these vessels caused by cerebrovascular Aβ deposits results in fragile vessels and lobar intracerebral hemorrhages. CAA also manifests with progressive cognitive impairment or transient focal neurological symptoms. Although development of therapeutics for CAA is urgently needed, the pathogenesis of CAA remains to be fully elucidated. In this review, we summarize the epidemiology, pathology, clinical and radiological features, and perspectives for future research directions in CAA therapeutics. Recent advances in mass spectrometric methodology combined with vascular isolation techniques have aided understanding of the cerebrovascular proteome. In this paper, we describe several potential key CAA-associated molecules that have been identified by proteomic analyses (apolipoprotein E, clusterin, SRPX1 (sushi repeat-containing protein X-linked 1), TIMP3 (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3), and HTRA1 (HtrA serine peptidase 1)), and their pivotal roles in Aβ cytotoxicity, Aβ fibril formation, and vessel wall remodeling. Understanding the interactions between cerebrovascular Aβ deposits and molecules that accumulate with Aβ may lead to discovery of effective CAA therapeutics and to the identification of biomarkers for early diagnosis.

Abstract
Neurodevelopmental and neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) with severe neurological/psychiatric symptoms, such as cerebrovascular pathology in AD, CAA, and chronic stroke, have brought greater attention with their incidence and prevalence having markedly increased over the past few years. Causes of the significant neuropathologies, especially those observed in neurological diseases in the CNS, are commonly believed to involve multiple factors such as an age, a total environment, genetics, and an immunity contributing to their progression, neuronal, and vascular injuries. We primarily focused on the studies of glial involvement/dysfunction in part with the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the neurovascular unit (NVU) changes, and the vascular mechanisms, which have been both suggested as critical roles in chronic stroke and many other NDDs. It has been noted that glial cells including astrocytes (which outnumber other cell types in the CNS) essentially contribute more to the BBB integrity, extracellular homeostasis, neurotransmitter release, regulation of neurogenic niches in response to neuroinflammatory stimulus, and synaptic plasticity. In a recent study for NDDs utilizing cellular and molecular biology and genetic and pharmacological tools, the role of reactive astrocytes (RACs) and gliosis was demonstrated, able to trigger pathophysiological/psychopathological detrimental changes during the disease progression. We speculate, in particular, the BBB, the NVU, and changes of the astrocytes (potentially different populations from the RACs) not only interfere with neuronal development and synaptogenesis, but also generate oxidative damages, contribute to beta-amyloid clearances and disrupted vasculature, as well as lead to neuroinflammatory disorders. During the past several decades, stem cell therapy has been investigated with a research focus to target related neuro-/vascular pathologies (cell replacement and repair) and neurological/psychiatric symptoms (paracrine protection and homeostasis). Evidence shows that transplantation of neurogenic or vasculogenic cells could be achieved to pursue differentiation and maturation within the diseased brains as expected. It would be hoped that, via regulating functions of astrocytes, astrocytic involvement, and modulation of the BBB, the NVU and astrocytes should be among major targets for therapeutics against NDDs pathogenesis by drug and cell-based therapies. The non-invasive strategies in combination with stem cell transplantation such as the well-tested intranasal deliveries for drug and stem cells by our and many other groups show great translational potentials in NDDs. Neuroimaging and clinically relevant analyzing tools need to be evaluated in various NDDs brains.

CT-Visible Convexity Subarachnoid Hemorrhage is Associated With Cortical Superficial Siderosis and Predicts Recurrent ICH. Neurology 2020; 96:e986-e994. [PMID: 33087495 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000011052] [Citation(s) in RCA: 8] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/16/2020] [Accepted: 08/28/2020] [Indexed: 12/19/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether acute convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) detected on CT in lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) related to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is associated with recurrent ICH. METHODS We analyzed data from a prospective cohort of consecutive acute lobar ICH survivors fulfilling the Boston criteria for possible or probable CAA who had both brain CT and MRI at index ICH. Presence of cSAH was assessed on CT blinded to MRI data. Cortical superficial siderosis (cSS), cerebral microbleeds, and white matter hyperintensities were evaluated on MRI. Cox proportional hazard models were used to assess the association between cSAH and the risk of recurrent symptomatic ICH during follow-up. RESULTS A total of 244 ICH survivors (76.4 ± 8.7 years; 54.5% female) were included. cSAH was observed on baseline CT in 99 patients (40.5%). Presence of cSAH was independently associated with cSS, hematoma volume, and preexisting dementia. During a median follow-up of 2.66 years, 49 patients (20.0%) had recurrent symptomatic ICH. Presence of cSAH was associated with recurrent ICH (hazard ratio 2.64; 95% confidence interval 1.46-4.79; p = 0.001), after adjusting for age, antiplatelet use, warfarin use, and history of previous ICH. CONCLUSION cSAH was detected on CT in 40.5% of patients with acute lobar ICH related to CAA and heralds an increased risk of recurrent ICH. This CT marker may be widely used to stratify the ICH risk in patients with CAA. CLASSIFICATION OF EVIDENCE This study provides Class II evidence that cSAH accurately predicts recurrent stroke in patients with CAA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cortical subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) is a rare clinical presentation with different causes, but rarely happens along with acute ischemic stroke. Intracranial high-grade stenosis originated from brain has been regarded as an unusual cause of cSAH, especially in young adults. CASE REPORT A case of 33-year-old male presented with mild headache and spontaneous left-sided body weakness. Initial brain computed tomography (CT) showed cSAH in the right superior frontal sulcus. Further neuroimaging examinations including magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), digital subtraction angiography (DSA), transesophageal echocardiogram (TEE); in addition, lumbar puncture and blood tests were performed. Diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) showed an acute infarction in the right frontal lobe and corona radiata of the territory of middle cerebral artery (MCA). The MR angiography (MRA) displayed no flow signal in the right middle cerebral artery M1-segment, while the DSA displayed bloodstream slowness in the right MCA M1-segment which suggested high-grade stenosis of the right MCA. The abnormal laboratory data suggested hyperhomocysteinemia, and excluded causes of thrombosis, infection, or cancer. The mechanism of cSAH may come about in severe atherosclerotic stenosis of MCAs by the broken of expanded tenuous compensatory pial vessels. The patient had good recovered at follow-up. CONCLUSIONS This case demonstrates cSAH with acute ischemic stroke, which is an uncommon complication, in a young adult stroke patient; a high-grade atherosclerotic stenosis of the MCA was identified as the etiology.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether acute convexity subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) associated with acute lobar intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) increases the risk of ICH recurrence in patients with cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). METHODS We analyzed data from a prospective cohort of consecutive survivors of acute spontaneous lobar ICH fulfilling the Boston criteria for possible or probable CAA (CAA-ICH). We analyzed baseline clinical and MRI data, including cSAH (categorized as adjacent or remote from ICH on a standardized scale), cortical superficial siderosis (cSS), and other CAA MRI markers. Multivariable Cox regression models were used to assess the association between cSAH and recurrent symptomatic ICH during follow-up. RESULTS We included 261 CAA-ICH survivors (mean age 76.2 ± 8.7 years). Of them, 166 (63.6%, 95% confidence interval [CI] 57.7%-69.5%) had cSAH on baseline MRI. During a median follow-up of 28.3 (interquartile range 7.2-57.0) months, 54 (20.7%) patients experienced a recurrent lobar ICH. In Cox regression, any cSAH, adjacent cSAH, and remote cSAH were independent predictors of recurrent ICH after adjustment for other confounders, including cSS. Incidence rate of recurrent ICH in patients with cSAH was 9.9 per 100 person-years (95% CI 7.3-13.0) compared with 1.2 per 100 person-years (95% CI 0.3-3.2) in those without cSAH (adjusted hazard ratio 7.5, 95% CI 2.6-21.1). CONCLUSION In patients with CAA-related acute ICH, cSAH (adjacent or remote from lobar ICH) is commonly observed and heralds an increased risk of recurrent ICH. cSAH may help stratify bleeding risk and should be assessed along with cSS for prognosis and clinical management.

Incidence of Convexal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage in the Elderly: The Mayo Clinic Study of Aging. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2019; 28:104451. [PMID: 31668581 PMCID: PMC6886710 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2019.104451] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/28/2019] [Revised: 09/18/2019] [Accepted: 09/25/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nontraumatic convexal subarachnoid hemorrhages in the elderly can be a manifestation of cerebral amyloid angiopathy associated with a high risk of future intracerebral hemorrhage. The incidence in the elderly population is unknown. Our objectives were to: 1) determine the incidence of convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage in a population-based study, and, 2) to compare apopolipoprotein-E genotype and amyloid positron emission tomographic (PET) imaging for those with versus without hemorrhage. METHODS Between 11/29/2004 and 3/11/2017, 4462 individuals without hemorrhage at baseline participated in the population-based Mayo Clinic Study of Aging. We used the Rochester Epidemiology Project medical records-linkage system to identify intracerebral hemorrhages. Records and images were reviewed to identify convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Neuroimaging characteristics, demographics, medications, and apopolipoprotein-E genotype were recorded. RESULTS Four cases were identified. The incidence of convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage was 14.1 per 100,000 person years. Three occurred in women, median age, 79 (range: 71-84). One patient had coexisting cerebral microbleeds. Two participants developed a subsequent lobar intracerebral hemorrhage at a median of 4.75 years after convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage. The apopolipoprotein-E -allele combinations of the 4 were: 3/3, 3/3, 2/2, and 2/3. On Pittsburgh Compound B-PET imaging, median standardized uptake value ratio with convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage was 1.86 (range: 1.38-2.34). CONCLUSIONS Convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage is rare in the older population, occurring with an incidence of about 14 per 100,000 person years. Yet, when present, it may be associated with a high risk of future intracerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract
Down syndrome (DS) is the main genetic cause of intellectual disability worldwide. The overexpression of the Amyloid Precursor Protein, present in chromosome 21, leads to β-amyloid deposition that results in Alzheimer disease (AD) and, in most cases, also to cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) neuropathology. People with DS invariably develop the neuropathological hallmarks of AD at the age of 40, and they are at an ultra high risk for suffering AD-related cognitive impairment thereafter. In the general population, cerebrovascular disease is a significant contributor to AD-related cognitive impairment, while in DS remains understudied. This review describes the current knowledge on cerebrovascular disease in DS and reviews the potential biomarkers that could be useful in the future studies, focusing on CAA. We also discuss available evidence on sporadic AD or other genetically determined forms of AD. We highlight the urgent need of large biomarker-characterized cohorts, including neuropathological correlations, to study the exact contribution of CAA and related vascular factors that play a role in cognition and occur with aging, their characterization and interrelationships. DS represents a unique context in which to perform these studies as this population is relatively protected from some conventional vascular risk factors and they develop significant CAA, DS represents a particular atheroma-free model to study AD-related vascular pathologies. Only deepening on these underlying mechanisms, new preventive and therapeutic strategies could be designed to improve the quality of life of this population and their caregivers and lead to new avenues of treatment also in the general AD population.

APOE and cortical superficial siderosis in CAA: Meta-analysis and potential mechanisms. Neurology 2019; 93:e358-e371. [PMID: 31243071 DOI: 10.1212/wnl.0000000000007818] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/09/2018] [Accepted: 03/11/2019] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To assess potential mechanisms of cortical superficial siderosis (cSS), a central MRI biomarker in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA), we performed a collaborative meta-analysis of APOE associations with cSS presence and severity. METHODS We pooled data from published studies reporting APOE genotype and MRI assessment of cSS in 3 distinct settings: (1) stroke clinic patients with symptomatic CAA (i.e., lobar intracerebral hemorrhage, transient focal neurologic episodes) according to the Boston criteria; (2) memory clinic patients; and (3) population-based studies. We compared cSS presence and severity (focal or disseminated vs no cSS) in participants with ε2+ or ε4+ genotype vs the ε3/ε3 genotype, by calculating study-specific and random effects pooled, unadjusted odds ratios (ORs). RESULTS Thirteen studies fulfilled inclusion criteria: 7 memory clinic cohorts (n = 2,587), 5 symptomatic CAA cohorts (n = 402), and 1 population-based study (n = 1,379). There was no significant overall association between APOE ε4+ and cSS presence or severity. When stratified by clinical setting, APOE ε4+ was associated with cSS in memory clinic (OR 2.10; 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.11-3.99) but not symptomatic CAA patients. The pooled OR showed significantly increased odds of having cSS for APOE ε2+ genotypes (OR 2.42, 95% CI 1.48-3.95) in both patient populations. This association was stronger for disseminated cSS in symptomatic CAA cohorts. In detailed subgroup analyses, APOE ε2/ε2 and APOE ε2/ε4 genotypes were most consistently and strongly associated with cSS presence and severity. CONCLUSION CAA-related vasculopathic changes and fragility associated with APOE ε2+ allele might have a biologically meaningful role in the pathophysiology and severity of cSS.

One-year prognosis of non-traumatic cortical subarachnoid haemorrhage: A prospective series of 34 patients. Neurologia 2018; 36:215-221.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Cortical subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) has multiple aetiologies. No prospective study has reported the long-term progression of the condition. The objective of this study is to describe the clinical and aetiological characteristics of patients with cSAH and to gain insight into prognosis. METHODS We performed a prospective, observational, multi-centre study. Data on clinical and radiological variables were collected; during a one-year follow-up period, we recorded data on mortality, dependence, rebleeding, and the appearance of dementia. RESULTS The study included 34 patients (mean age, 68.3 years; range, 27-89). The most frequent symptoms were headache and focal neurological deficits, which were frequently transient and recurrent. CT scans returned pathological findings in 28 patients (85%). Brain MRI scans were performed in 30 patients (88%), revealing acute ischaemia in 10 (29%), old haemorrhage in 7 (21%), and superficial siderosis in 2 (6%). Aetiology was identified in 26 patients (76.5%): causes were cerebral amyloid angiopathy in 8, ischaemic stroke in 5, vasculitis in 4, reversible posterior encephalopathy in 2, venous thrombosis in 2, reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome in 2, carotid occlusion in 1, Marfan syndrome in 1, and meningeal carcinomatosis in 1. Three patients died during follow-up (2 due to causes related to the cause of cSAH). Three patients developed dementia, 3 had lobar haemorrhages, and one had a second cSAH. CONCLUSIONS The most frequent causes of cSAH in our series were cerebral amyloid angiopathy, ischaemic stroke, and vasculitis. This type of haemorrhage has a worse prognosis than other non-aneurysmal cSAH. There are numerous possible causes, and prognosis depends on the aetiology. In elderly patients, intracranial haemorrhage is frequently associated with cognitive impairment.

Acute convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage and cortical superficial siderosis in probable cerebral amyloid angiopathy without lobar haemorrhage. J Neurol Neurosurg Psychiatry 2018; 89:397-403. [PMID: 29054916 PMCID: PMC9305362 DOI: 10.1136/jnnp-2017-316368] [Citation(s) in RCA: 18] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/03/2017] [Revised: 08/31/2017] [Accepted: 10/01/2017] [Indexed: 01/26/2023]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Acute non-traumatic convexity subarachnoid haemorrhage (cSAH) is increasingly recognised in cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). We investigated: (a) the overlap between acute cSAH and cortical superficial siderosis-a new CAA haemorrhagic imaging signature and (b) whether acute cSAH presents with particular clinical symptoms in patients with probable CAA without lobar intracerebral haemorrhage. METHODS MRI scans of 130 consecutive patients meeting modified Boston criteria for probable CAA were analysed for cortical superficial siderosis (focal, ≤3 sulci; disseminated, ≥4 sulci), and key small vessel disease markers. We compared clinical, imaging and cortical superficial siderosis topographical mapping data between subjects with versus without acute cSAH, using multivariable logistic regression. RESULTS We included 33 patients with probable CAA presenting with acute cSAH and 97 without cSAH at presentation. Patients with acute cSAH were more commonly presenting with transient focal neurological episodes (76% vs 34%; p<0.0001) compared with patients with CAA without cSAH. Patients with acute cSAH were also more often clinically presenting with transient focal neurological episodes compared with cortical superficial siderosis-positive, but cSAH-negative subjects with CAA (76% vs 30%; p<0.0001). Cortical superficial siderosis prevalence (but no other CAA severity markers) was higher among patients with cSAH versus those without, especially disseminated cortical superficial siderosis (49% vs 19%; p<0.0001). In multivariable logistic regression, cortical superficial siderosis burden (OR 5.53; 95% CI 2.82 to 10.8, p<0.0001) and transient focal neurological episodes (OR 11.7; 95% CI 2.70 to 50.6, p=0.001) were independently associated with acute cSAH. CONCLUSIONS This probable CAA cohort provides additional evidence for distinct disease phenotypes, determined by the presence of cSAH and cortical superficial siderosis.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To perform a meta-analysis of 4 core CSF biomarkers (β-amyloid [Aβ]42, Aβ40, total tau [t-tau], and phosphorylated tau [p-tau]) to assess which of these are most altered in sporadic cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA). METHODS We systematically searched PubMed for eligible studies reporting data on CSF biomarkers reflecting amyloid precursor protein metabolism (Aβ42, Aβ40), neurodegeneration (t-tau), and tangle pathology (p-tau) in symptomatic sporadic CAA cohorts vs controls and patients with Alzheimer disease (AD). Biomarker performance was assessed in random-effects meta-analysis based on ratio of mean (RoM) biomarker concentrations: (1) in patients with CAA vs healthy controls and (2) in patients with CAA vs patients with AD. RoM >1 indicates higher biomarker concentration in patients with CAA vs comparison population and RoM <1 indicates higher concentration in comparison groups. RESULTS Three studies met inclusion criteria. These comprised 5 CAA patient cohorts (n = 59 patients) vs healthy controls (n = 94 cases) and AD cohorts (n = 158). Three core biomarkers differentiated CAA from controls: CSF Aβ42 (RoM 0.49, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.38-0.64, p < 0.003), Aβ40 (RoM 0.70, 95% CI 0.63-0.78, p < 0.0001), and t-tau (RoM 1.54, 95% CI 1.15-2.07, p = 0.004); p-tau was marginal (RoM 1.24, 95% CI 0.99-1.54, p = 0.062). Differentiation between CAA and AD was strong for CSF Aβ40 (RoM 0.76, 95% CI 0.69-0.83, p < 0.0001), but not Aβ42 (RoM 1.00; 95% CI 0.81-1.23, p = 0.970). For t-tau and p-tau, average CSF ratios in patients with CAA vs patients with AD were 0.63 (95% CI 0.54-0.74, p < 0.0001) and 0.60 (95% CI 0.50-0.71, p < 0.0001), respectively. CONCLUSION Specific CSF patterns of Aβ42, Aβ40, t-tau, and p-tau might serve as molecular biomarkers of CAA, but analyses in larger CAA cohorts are needed.

Abstract
With an aging population, clinicians are more frequently encountering patients with atrial fibrillation who are also at risk of intracerebral hemorrhage due to cerebral amyloid angiopathy, the result of β-amyloid deposition in cerebral vessels. Cerebral amyloid angiopathy is common among elderly patients, and is associated with an increased risk of intracerebral bleeding, especially with the use of anticoagulation. Despite this association, this entity is absent in current risk-benefit analysis models, which may result in underestimation of the chance of bleeding in the subset of patients with this disease. Determining the presence and burden of cerebral amyloid angiopathy is particularly important when planning to start or restart anticoagulation after an intracerebral hemorrhage. Given the lack of randomized trial data to guide management strategies, we discuss a heart-brain team approach that includes clinician-patient shared decision making for the use of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic approaches to diminish stroke risk.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION We aimed to investigate if cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) is more frequent in genetically determined than in sporadic early-onset forms of Alzheimer's disease (AD) (early-onset AD [EOAD]). METHODS Neuroimaging features of CAA, apolipoprotein (APOE), and cerebrospinal fluid amyloid β (Aβ) 40 levels were studied in subjects with Down syndrome (DS, n = 117), autosomal-dominant AD (ADAD, n = 29), sporadic EOAD (n = 42), and healthy controls (n = 68). RESULTS CAA was present in 31%, 38%, and 12% of cognitively impaired DS, symptomatic ADAD, and sporadic EOAD subjects and in 13% and 4% of cognitively unimpaired DS individuals and healthy controls, respectively. APOE ε4 genotype was borderline significantly associated with CAA in sporadic EOAD (P = .06) but not with DS or ADAD. There were no differences in Aβ040 levels between groups or between subjects with and without CAA. DISCUSSION CAA is more frequently found in genetically determined AD than in sporadic EOAD. Cerebrospinal fluid Aβ40 levels are not a useful biomarker for CAA in AD.

Abstract
Background: Superficial siderosis (SS) is the occult deposition of hemosiderin within the cerebral cortex due to repeat microhemorrhages within the central nervous system. The collection of hemosiderin within the pia and superficial cortical surface can lead to injury to the nervous tissue. The most common presentation is occult sensorineural hearing loss although many patients have been misdiagnosed with diseases such as multiple sclerosis and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis before being diagnosed with SS. Only one case report exists in the literature describing an intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula (dAVF) as the putative cause for SS. Case Description: We describe two cases of SS caused by a dAVF. Both patients had a supratentorial, cortical lesion supplied by the middle meningeal artery with venous drainage into the superior sagittal sinus. In both patients, symptoms improved after endovascular embolization. The similar anatomic relationship of both dAVFs reported presents an interesting question about the pathogenesis of SS. Similar to the pathologic changes seen in the formation of intracranial arterial aneurysms; it would be possible that changes in the blood vessel lining and wall might predispose a patient to chronic, microhemorrhage resulting in SS. Conclusions: We describe the second and third cases of a dAVF as the cause of SS, and the first cases of successful treatment of SS-associated dAVF with endovascular embolization. As noninvasive imaging techniques become more sensitive and easily obtained, one must consider their limitations in detecting occult intracranial vascular malformations such as dAVF as a possible etiology for SS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The full spectrum of causes of convexal subarachnoid hemorrhage (cSAH) requires further investigation. Therefore, our objective was to describe the spectrum of clinical and imaging features of patients with non-traumatic cSAH. METHODS A retrospective observational study of consecutive patients with non-traumatic cSAH was performed at a tertiary referral center. The underlying cause of cSAH was characterized and clinical and imaging features that predict a specific etiology were identified. The frequency of future cSAH or intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) was determined. RESULTS In all, 88 patients [median age 64 years (range 25-85)] with non-traumatic cSAH were identified. The most common causes were reversible cerebral vasoconstriction syndrome (RCVS) (26, 29.5%), cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) (23, 26.1%), indeterminate (14, 15.9%) and endocarditis (9, 10.2%). CAA patients commonly presented at an older age than RCVS patients (75 years versus 51 years, P < 0.0001). Thirteen patients (14.7%) had recurrent cSAH, and 12 patients (13.6%) had a subsequent ICH. However, the risk was high amongst those with CAA compared to those caused by RCVS, with recurrent cSAH in 39.1% and subsequent lobar ICH in 43.5% of CAA cases. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates the clinical diversity of cSAH. Older age, sensorimotor dysfunction and stereotyped spells suggest CAA as the underlying cause. Younger age and thunderclap headache predict RCVS. Yet, various other causes also need to be considered in the differential diagnosis.
