Abstract
RESULTS Eventually, 108 consecutive patients received 174 surgeries were enrolled, experienced new or expanded infarction occured in 13 (7.47%) surgeries, which showed higher Suzuki stage on the non-operative side, more posterior cerebral artery (PCA) involvement, and more intraoperative hypotension compared to those without infarction(p < .05). The Suzuki stage on the non-operative side had the highest area under the curve (AUC) of 0.737, with a sensitivity of 0.692 and specificity of 0.783. Combination of the three factors showed better efficiency, with an AUC of 0.762, a sensitivity of 0.692, and a specificity of 0.907. CONCLUSIONS Revascularization was a safe option for patients with MMD, higher Suzuki stage on the non-operative side, PCA involvement, and intraoperative hypotension might be the risk factors for new or expanded infarction after revascularization in patients with MMD.

Vessel wall MRI in moyamoya disease: arterial wall enhancement varies depending on age, arteries, and disease progression. Eur Radiol 2024; 34:2183-2194. [PMID: 37798407 DOI: 10.1007/s00330-023-10251-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/07/2022] [Revised: 07/19/2023] [Accepted: 08/08/2023] [Indexed: 10/07/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate the relationship of followings for patients with moyamoya disease (MMD): arterial wall enhancement on vessel wall MRI (VW-MRI), cross-sectional area (CSA), time-of-flight MR angiography (MRA), age, locations from intracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) to proximal middle cerebral artery (MCA), disease progression, and transient ischemic attack (TIA). METHODS Patients who underwent VW-MRI between October 2018 and December 2020 were enrolled in this retrospective study. We measured arterial wall enhancement (enhancement ratio, ER) and CSA at five sections of ICA and MCA. Also, we scored MRA findings. Multiple linear regression (MLR) analysis was performed to explore the associations between ER, age, MRA score, CSA, history of TIA, and surgical revascularization. RESULTS We investigated 102 sides of 51 patients with MMD (35 women, 16 men, mean age 31 years ± 18 [standard deviation]). ER for MRA score 2 (signal discontinuity) was higher than ER for other scores in sections D (end of ICA) and E (proximal MCA) on MLR analysis. ER in section E was significantly higher in patients for MRA score 2 with TIA history than without. ER significantly increased as CSA increased in section E, which suggests ER becomes less in decreased CSA due to negative remodeling. CONCLUSION Arterial wall enhancement in MMD varies by age, location, and disease progression. Arterial wall enhancement may be stronger in the progressive stage of MMD. Arterial wall enhancement increases with history of TIA at proximal MCA, which may indicate the progression of the disease. CLINICAL RELEVANCE STATEMENT Arterial wall enhancement in moyamoya disease varies by age, location of arteries, and disease progression, and arterial wall enhancement may be used as an imaging biomarker of moyamoya disease. KEY POINTS It has not been clarified what arterial wall enhancement in moyamoya disease represents. Arterial wall enhancement in moyamoya disease varies by age, location of arteries, and disease progression. Arterial wall enhancement in moyamoya disease increases as the disease progresses.

Abstract
Objective This study aimed to explore the long-term outcome of unilateral moyamoya disease and predict the clinical and genetic factors associated with contralateral progression in unilateral moyamoya disease. Methods We retrospectively recruited unilateral moyamoya disease patients with available genetic data who underwent encephaloduroarteriosynangiosis (EDAS) surgery at our institution from January 2009 to November 2017. Long-term follow-up data, including clinical outcomes, angiographic features, and genetic information, were analyzed. Results A total of 83 unilateral moyamoya disease patients with available genetic data were enrolled in our study. The mean duration of clinical follow-up was 7.9 ± 2.0 years. Among all patients, 19 patients demonstrated contralateral progression to bilateral disease. Heterozygous Ring Finger Protein 213 p.R4810K mutations occurred significantly more frequently in unilateral moyamoya disease patients with contralateral progression. Furthermore, patients with contralateral progression typically demonstrated an earlier age of onset than those with non-progressing unilateral moyamoya disease. In the contralateral progression group, posterior circulation involvement was observed in 11 (11/19, 57.9%) patients compared to 12 (12/64, 18.8%) in the non-contralateral progression group (P = 0.001). The time to peak of cerebral perfusion and neurological status showed significant postoperative improvement. Conclusion Long-term follow-up revealed that the EDAS procedure might provide benefits for unilateral moyamoya disease patients. Ring Finger Protein 213 p.R4810K mutations, younger age, and posterior circulation involvement might predict the contralateral progression of unilateral moyamoya disease.

Abstract
Moyamoya disease (MMD) is a cerebrovascular disease which is characterized by the chronic progression of steno-occlusive changes at the terminal portion of internal carotid arteries and the development of "moyamoya vessels." Dysregulation of the extracellular matrix is regarded as a key pathophysiology underlying unique vascular remodeling. Here, we measured the concentration of elastin crosslinkers desmosine and isodesmosine in the plasma of MMD patients. We aimed to reveal its diagnostic values of desmosines in the progression of steno-occlusive lesions. The concentrations of plasma desmosines were determined by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. The temporal profiles of steno-occlusive lesions on magnetic resonance angiography were retrospectively evaluated, and the correlation between the progression of steno-occlusive changes in intracranial arteries and plasma desmosines concentrations was further analyzed. Plasma desmosines were significantly higher in MMD patients with disease progression compared to MMD patients without disease progression. Also, the incidence of disease progression was higher in MMD patients with plasma desmosines levels over limit of quantitation (LOQ) than those with plasma desmosines levels below LOQ. In conclusion, plasma desmosines could be potential biomarkers to predict the progression of steno-occlusive changes in MMD patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The characteristics and clinical implications of posterior cerebral artery (PCA) involvement in unilateral moyamoya disease (U-MMD), such as laterality, frequency of the RNF213 p.R4810K mutation, and clinical outcomes, have not been well studied. POPULATION AND METHODS We analyzed a cohort of 93 patients with U-MMD who participated in the SUPRA Japan study. Clinical characteristics and radiological examinations were collected from medical records. The presence of the p.R4810K mutation was determined using a TaqMan assay. The clinical outcome was assessed using the modified Rankin Scale (mRS). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to assess the associations. RESULTS Among the patients with U-MMD, PCA involvement was observed in 60.0 % (3/5) of patients with homozygous mutation, 11.3 % (7/62) of those with heterozygous mutation, and 3.8 % (1/26) of those with wild type, showing a significant linear trend (p < 0.001 for trend). PCA involvement was observed exclusively on the same side as the affected anterior circulation. Dyslipidemia and cerebral infarction at initial onset were independently associated with mRS ≥1. Hypertension was associated with mRS ≥1 and it was also linked to infarction at initial onset, suggesting a potential confounding effect. Although PCA involvement showed a trend for higher mRS, it was not statistically significant. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate a gene dose effect of the p.R4810K mutation on PCA involvement, with the homozygous state showing the most significant effect. Both genetic and modifiable factors such as dyslipidemia may influence the progression of U-MMD.

Neurol Med Chir (Tokyo) 2024; 64:43-49. [PMID: 38057092 PMCID: PMC10835577 DOI: 10.2176/jns-nmc.2023-0169] [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: 07/25/2023] [Accepted: 10/11/2023] [Indexed: 12/08/2023] Open
Abstract
Recently, thyroid autoantibodies were found to be associated with moyamoya disease (MMD). The ring finger protein 213 (RNF213) p.R4810K variant represents the most important susceptibility genotype of this disease, but its relationship with thyroid autoantibodies remains to be elucidated. Thus, in this study, we aimed to evaluate the clinical relevance of thyroid autoantibodies in each RNF213 genotype in patients with MMD. Included in this study were patients with MMD without a thyroid disease history and in euthyroid status; they were then classified into the mutated or nonmutated based on the RNF213 p.R4810K genotype and positive or negative based on thyroid autoantibody (thyroperoxidase and thyroglobulin) levels. Clinical data of each group were thereafter evaluated. Among the 209 patients, the mutated RNF213 p.R4810K variant and positive thyroid autoantibodies were detected in 155 and 41 patients, respectively. Positive thyroid autoantibodies were found to be more common in the nonmutated patients than in the mutated patients (31.5% vs. 15.5%; P = 0.011). In the mutated patients, as compared to autoantibody-negative patients, autoantibody-positive patients were determined to be more likely to have advanced disease with posterior cerebral artery involvement (54.2% vs. 29.0%; P = 0.017), white matter infarction (58.3% vs. 37.6%; P = 0.046), and a higher modified Rankin Scale at last visit (16.7% vs. 3.1%; P = 0.021). These results suggest that thyroid autoantibodies can act as an immunity inducer in patients with MMD lacking the susceptibility gene RNF213 p.R4810K variant. Moreover, the simultaneous presence of thyroid autoantibodies and the variant seems to aggravate the disease, which indicates synergy between thyroid autoantibodies and the variant.

Abstract
Moyamoya angiopathy is a chronic progressive cerebrovascular disease characterized by stenosis and occlusion of the distal segments of the internal carotid arteries and/or proximal segments of the middle and anterior cerebral arteries, with a gradual compensatory restructuring of the cerebral circulation to the system of the external carotid arteries. Today, the main treatment method for Moyamoya angiopathy is surgical revascularization of the brain. A search and analysis of publications on the treatment of adult patients with Moyamoya angiopathy was carried out in the PubMed and Medscape databases over the past 10 years. We present a case of an adult female patient with a hemorrhagic form of Moyamoya angiopathy stage IV according to J. Suzuki, who underwent staged combined revascularization of both cerebral hemispheres. Surgical revascularization included the creation of a low-flow extra-intracranial shunt combined with a combination of indirect synangiosis. The combination of direct and indirect methods of surgical revascularization enables to achieve the development of an extensive network of collaterals and fully compensate for cerebral circulatory disorders both in the early and late postoperative periods, which is confirmed by instrumental diagnostic data. Combined revascularization is the most effective modern method of treating patients with Moyamoya angiopathy due to the complementary influence of direct and indirect components of revascularization.

Long-term prognosis of 452 moyamoya disease patients with and without revascularization under perfusion-based indications. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2023; 32:107389. [PMID: 37778161 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2023.107389] [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: 07/06/2023] [Revised: 09/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/24/2023] [Indexed: 10/03/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the long-term outcomes of patients treated under our perfusion-based strategy and assess whether conservative treatment without surgical treatment under our strategy is acceptable. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 315 adult and 137 pediatric MMD patients (follow-up period ≥ 3 years from 2001 to 2020) were included. Follow-up events in each patient group (pediatric or adult, surgically treated or conservatively treated) were evaluated and compared to each other using a log-rank test. Risk factors for stroke and nonstroke events were also investigated using a multivariate Cox proportional hazard model. RESULTS In adult-onset patients, the stroke event rates (person-year %) were not different between surgically treated patients and conservatively treated patients (2.00 % vs. 1.59 %, p = 0.558); however, conservative patients showed a higher stroke rate than surgically treated hemispheres (0.34 %; p = 0.025) and hemorrhagic stroke was the major type (18/26, 69.2 %). Hemorrhagic onset was associated with increased risk of stroke in adults (hazard ratio (95 % confidence interval) = 2.43 (1.10-5.36)). In pediatric-onset patients, no conservatively treated patients experienced stroke; however, nonstroke events occurred more frequently than in surgically treated hemispheres (4.86 % vs. 1.71 %, p = 0.020 for transient ischemic attack; and 7.91 % vs. 1.31 %, p < 0.001 for asymptomatic progression on magnetic resonance angiography). CONCLUSIONS In adult patients, conservatively treated patients experienced stroke more frequently, especially hemorrhagic stroke. An additive strategy to prevent stroke in hemorrhagic-onset patients without hemodynamic disturbance seems to be needed. Pediatric patients with mild hemodynamic disturbance can be safely observed without initial surgical intervention, but close follow-up for disease progression is necessary.

Strunk D, Diehl RR, Veltkamp R, Meuth SG, Kraemer M. Progression of initially unilateral Moyamoya angiopathy in Caucasian Europeans. J Neurol 2023; 270:4415-4422. [PMID: 37261501 DOI: 10.1007/s00415-023-11793-0] [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: 04/05/2023] [Revised: 05/20/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Moyamoya angiopathy (MMA) is a rare cause of stroke in Caucasians, but it is much more frequent in East Asia. Since 2021, diagnostic criteria not only comprise bilateral, but also unilateral MMA. Hitherto, progression of unilateral MMA has predominantly been described in East Asians. Our study aimed to analyze the occurrence and characteristics of progression of initially unilateral MMA in Caucasian Europeans. METHODS By retrospective analysis of medical records of 200 European Caucasians with MMA, admitted to our German center between 2010 and 2022, cases of unilateral MMA and its progression, i.e. progressive ipsi- or novel contralateral arterial stenosis, during follow-up were identified. Kruskal Wallis Test and Fisher's Exact Test were used to identify statistically significant differences between progressive and stable patients concerning demographic, clinical, laboratory, and radiographic features. RESULTS Our cohort comprised 63 patients with initially unilateral MMA. Fourteen (22.2%) had an ipsi- (n = 3, 21.4%) or contralateral (n = 11, 78.6%) progression. Mean age of patients with progressive MMA at symptom onset was 32 ± 14.1 years. The ratio of women to men in this subgroup was 2.5:1. Mean follow-up period was 5.4 ± 3.7 years, mean age at progression was 39.9 ± 12.7 years. Mean time interval between penultimate follow-up and progression was 4.8 ± 4.5 years. Patients with progression showed affection of the posterior cerebral artery (p = 0.009) and suffered from vertigo (p = 0.009) significantly more often. CONCLUSION Unilateral MMA progresses in a substantial proportion in European Caucasians. Long-term follow-up is required due to potential late progression with consecutive symptoms and the need for bypass surgery.

Abstract
Background The progress of Moyamoya disease (MMD) is often accompanied by the occurrence of new ischemia or hemorrhagic events, which was difficult to predict. This systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to identify predictors for progression in MMD patients. Methods We searched PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, and Embase databases up to December 10th, 2022 for randomized controlled trials, case-control studies, or cohort studies reporting predictors of disease progression in MMD patients. The results of each predictor were pooled by meta-analysis and further analyzed by subgroup analysis for predictors of unilateral to bilateral progression of MMD. Results A total of 842 patients from 12 studies were included. The estimated pooled means indicated lower age (standard mean difference [SMD]: -0.29, 95% confidence interval [CI]: -0.55 to -0.03; P = 0.03), family history (odds ratio [OR] 3.97, 95% CI: 1.96 to 8.03; P < 0.001) and contralateral abnormality (OR 3.95, 95% CI: 1.10 to 14.20; P = 0.04) were associated with progression in MMD patients. Subgroup analyses indicated that the same three factors were associated with the progression of unilateral to bilateral MMD. Conclusions This meta-analysis revealed that lower age, family history and contralateral abnormality were associated with progression in MMD patients. The same three factors are associated with the progression of unilateral to bilateral MMD. Further studies are needed to validate our results.

Abstract
Objective Several forms of cerebral revascularization have been carried out to treat moyamoya disease, however, the existing methods are accompanied by a variety of complications. In this study, the authors aimed to evaluate the clinical and angiographic outcomes of a new surgical procedure: superficial temporal artery–middle cerebral artery (STA-MCA) anastomosis combined with multiple burr hole (MBH) surgery and dural inversion synangiosis for the treatment of moyamoya disease in adults. Methods Patients treated for moyamoya disease from August 2019 to July 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Clinical data, including perioperative complications and follow-up outcomes, were noted. Preoperative and postoperative angiograms were compared, and the diameters of the frontal branch of the superficial temporal artery (F-STA), the deep temporal artery (DTA), the distal superficial temporal artery (STA) before the bifurcation and the middle meningeal artery (MMA) were measured on preoperative and postoperative angiograms. Meanwhile, a Matsushima score was assigned from postoperative angiograms. Results This study included 66 patients (67 hemispheres). During the follow-up period, a median of 18 (IQR, 13–21) months, no stroke or death occurred in any of the patients. The clinical outcomes were excellent in 27 patients (40.9%), good in 34 patients (51.6%), fair in 4 patients (6.0%), and poor in 1 patient (1.5%); the overall rate of favorable clinical outcomes (excellent and good) was 92.5%. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score was significantly improved at follow-up (P < 0.001). There were 41 hemispheres imaged by cerebral angiography after the operation, at a median postoperative interval of 9 (IQR, 8–12) months; among them, 34 (82.9%) hemispheres had Matsushima scores of grade A and grade B. The average postoperative diameters in the STA, DTA and MMA were increased significantly in 41 hemispheres at follow-up (P < 0.001). Sixteen (24.2%) patients suffered from perioperative complications, including focal hyperperfusion syndrome (HS) in 8 (12.2%) patients, cerebral infarction in 3 (4.5%) patients (including one case accompanied by wound infection), cerebral hemorrhage in 2 (3.0%) patients, seizures in 2 (3.0%) patients, and subdural effusion in 1 (1.5%) patient. Conclusions The procedure of STA-MCA anastomosis combined with MBH surgery and dural inversion synangiosis may be a safe and effective treatment for adult patients with moyamoya disease.

Effect of the RNF213 p.R4810K Variant on the Progression of Intracranial Artery Stenosis: A 15-Year Follow-up Study. Neurol Genet 2022; 8:e200029. [PMID: 36324634 PMCID: PMC9621605 DOI: 10.1212/nxg.0000000000200029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/04/2022] [Accepted: 07/25/2022] [Indexed: 06/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Intracranial artery stenosis is the predominant etiology of ischemic stroke in the Asian population. Furthermore, the presence of the RNF213 p.R4810K variant, which is a susceptibility gene for moyamoya disease, increases the risk of ischemic stroke attributable to large-artery atherosclerosis. Accordingly, we hypothesized that this genetic variant may affect the long-term outcome of intracranial artery stenosis in the East Asian population. We thus aimed to examine the effect of this variant on the long-term progression and prognosis of intracranial artery stenosis. METHODS Using a prospective database, we identified adult patients with intracranial artery stenosis who underwent periodic MRI examinations for >5 years. We evaluated stenosis progression using a validated visual grading system. We excluded patients diagnosed with moyamoya disease at the time of initial MRI. Genotyping of RNF213 p.R4810K was performed at the end of the follow-up period. RESULTS Among 52 eligible patients, 22 (42%) were carriers of the RNF213 p.R4810K variant. The median follow-up duration was 10.3 years. During the follow-up period, progression of intracranial artery stenosis was observed in 64% variant carriers and 27% noncarriers. There was a significant association of the variant with time to progression of intracranial artery stenosis (hazard ratio [HR] 3.31, 95% CI 1.38-7.90, p = 0.007), and time to the composite endpoint of symptomatic stroke and transient ischemic attack (HR 3.70, 95% CI 1.15-11.86, p = 0.028), but not to symptomatic stroke alone (HR 2.18, 95% CI 0.62-7.74, p = 0.23). Two variant carriers with progression were newly diagnosed with moyamoya disease. DISCUSSION Our findings indicated that the RNF213 p.R4810K variant increases the risk of intracranial artery stenosis progression.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diffuse midline gliomas (DMG) with the H3 K27M-mutation are a well-described entity with most DMG harboring this mutation, with notable heterogeneity in adults. No therapy has been proven to improve survival in this tumor type. Panobinostat is a histone deacetylase inhibitor that may have therapeutic benefit. METHODS We report our retrospective experience with use of panobinostat in adults (> 18 years) with H3 K27M-mutant DMG treated at Mayo Clinic (Rochester) from January 2016 to August 2020, with follow-up until October 2021. Survival was calculated using the Kaplan-Meier method. RESULTS 4 patients with H3 K27M-mutant glioma were treated with panobinostat as compassionate use. Patients had a median age of 40 years (range 22-62 years) and 2 were female. Tumor location was midline for all patients, spinal cord (n = 2), brainstem (n = 1), and thalamus (n = 1). All tumors were IDH1/IDH2 wildtype. 3 patients received radiotherapy followed by adjuvant panobinostat. All patients had no other pharmacologic therapy utilized prior to or during panobinostat therapy aside from concurrent dexamethasone utilized in 3 patients. No patient experienced a grade 2 or higher (per CTCAE grade) adverse effect. The median overall survival was 42 months, median progression free survival of 19 months, 2 patients were alive at last follow up (both with spinal cord tumors and received radiation). The best response was stable disease in 2 patients and a partial response in 1 patient. CONCLUSIONS This is the first report of clinical outcomes of panobinostat in adults with H3 K27M-mutant DMG. We showed that it is well-tolerated at the dosage schedule that we describe, with no serious adverse effects throughout the study period.
