A Deep Learning Approach to Predict Recanalization First-Pass Effect following Mechanical Thrombectomy in Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2024:ajnr.A8272. [PMID: 38871371 DOI: 10.3174/ajnr.a8272] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/21/2023] [Accepted: 03/01/2024] [Indexed: 06/15/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Following endovascular thrombectomy in patients with large-vessel occlusion stroke, successful recanalization from 1 attempt, known as the first-pass effect, has correlated favorably with long-term outcomes. Pretreatment imaging may contain information that can be used to predict the first-pass effect. Recently, applications of machine learning models have shown promising results in predicting recanalization outcomes, albeit requiring manual segmentation. In this study, we sought to construct completely automated methods using deep learning to predict the first-pass effect from pretreatment CT and MR imaging. MATERIALS AND METHODS Our models were developed and evaluated using a cohort of 326 patients who underwent endovascular thrombectomy at UCLA Ronald Reagan Medical Center from 2014 to 2021. We designed a hybrid transformer model with nonlocal and cross-attention modules to predict the first-pass effect on MR imaging and CT series. RESULTS The proposed method achieved a mean 0.8506 (SD, 0.0712) for cross-validation receiver operating characteristic area under the curve (ROC-AUC) on MR imaging and 0.8719 (SD, 0.0831) for cross-validation ROC-AUC on CT. When evaluated on the prospective test sets, our proposed model achieved a mean ROC-AUC of 0.7967 (SD, 0.0335) with a mean sensitivity of 0.7286 (SD, 0.1849) and specificity of 0.8462 (SD, 0.1216) for MR imaging and a mean ROC-AUC of 0.8051 (SD, 0.0377) with a mean sensitivity of 0.8615 (SD, 0.1131) and specificity 0.7500 (SD, 0.1054) for CT, respectively, representing the first classification of the first-pass effect from MR imaging alone and the first automated first-pass effect classification method in CT. CONCLUSIONS Results illustrate that both nonperfusion MR imaging and CT from admission contain signals that can predict a successful first-pass effect following endovascular thrombectomy using our deep learning methods without requiring time-intensive manual segmentation.

Abstract
PURPOSE The first-pass effect (FPE), defined as complete revascularization after a single thrombectomy pass in large vessel occlusion, is a predictor of good prognosis in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) receiving mechanical thrombectomy (MT). We aimed to evaluate obesity-related indicators if possible be predictors of FPE. METHODS We consecutively enrolled patients with AIS who were treated with MT between January 2019 and December 2021 at our institution. Baseline characteristics, procedure-related data, and laboratory test results were retrospectively analyzed. A multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate the independent predictors of FPE. RESULTS A total of 151 patients were included in this study, of whom 47 (31.1%) had FPE. After adjusting for confounding factors, the independent predictors of achieving FPE were low levels of body mass index (BMI) (OR 0.85, 95% CI 0.748 to 0.971), non-intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (OR 4.038, 95% CI 1.46 to 11.14), and non-internal carotid artery occlusion (OR 13.14, 95% CI 2.394 to 72.11). Patients with lower total cholesterol (TC) (< 3.11 mmol/L) were more likely to develop FPE than those with higher TC (≥ 4.63 mmol/L) (OR 4.280; 95% CI 1.24 to 14.74) CONCLUSION: Lower BMI, non-intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis, non-internal carotid artery occlusion, and lower TC levels were independently associated with increased rates of FPE in patients with AIS who received MT therapy. FPE was correlated with better clinical outcomes after MT.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION First pass effect (FPE), achievement of complete recanalization (mTICI 2c/3) with a single pass, is a significant predictor of favorable outcomes for endovascular treatment (EVT) in large vessel occlusion stroke (LVO). However, data concerning the impact on functional outcomes and predictors of FPE in medium vessel occlusions (MeVO) are scarce. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted an international retrospective study on MeVO cases. Multivariable logistic modeling was used to establish independent predictors of FPE. Clinical and safety outcomes were compared between the two study groups (FPE vs non-FPE) using logistic regression models. Good outcome was defined as modified Rankin Scale 0-2 at 3 months. RESULTS Eight hundred thirty-six patients with a final mTICI ⩾ 2b were included in this analysis. FPE was observed in 302 patients (36.1%). In multivariable analysis, hypertension (aOR 1.55, 95% CI 1.10-2.20) and lower baseline NIHSS score (aOR 0.95, 95% CI 0.93-0.97) were independently associated with an FPE. Good outcomes were more common in the FPE versus non-FPE group (72.8% vs 52.8%), and FPE was independently associated with favorable outcome (aOR 2.20, 95% CI 1.59-3.05). 90-day mortality and intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) were significantly lower in the FPE group, 0.43 (95% CI, 0.25-0.72) and 0.55 (95% CI, 0.39-0.77), respectively. CONCLUSION Over 2/3 of patients with MeVOs and FPE in our cohort had a favorable outcome at 90 days. FPE is independently associated with favorable outcomes, it may reduce the risk of any intracranial hemorrhage, and 3-month mortality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has been proven as the standard treatment for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients due to large vessel occlusion (LVO). However, the ideal anesthetic strategy during EVT still remains unclear. Therefore, this systematic review and meta-analysis aimed to determine the optimal anesthetic modality for patients with AIS undergoing EVT based on current randomized controlled trials (RCTs). METHODS The databases Medline (via PubMed), EMBASE, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Library were searched for RCTs comparing general anesthesia (GA) and conscious sedation (CS) in AIS patients undergoing EVT. The primary outcome was a favorable functional outcome at 90 days postintervention. Data analysis was conducted using the Review Manager software (RevMan V.5.3). RESULTS Eight RCTs involving 1199 patients were included. There was no significant difference between GA and CS group in the rate of functional independence (risk ratio (RR) = 1.10, 95% confidence interval (CI) = 0.96 to 1.25; p = 0.17; I2 = 30%). Compared with the CS group, the GA group attained a higher successful recanalization rate (RR = 1.14, 95% CI = 1.08 to 1.20; p < 0.00001; I2 = 17%). In addition, patients in the GA were associated with a higher rate of hypotension (RR = 1.87, 95% CI = 1.44 to 2.41; p < 0.00001; I2 = 66%) and a higher incidence of pneumonia (RR = 1.38, 95% CI = 1.05 to 1.8; p = 0.02; I2 = 37%). CONCLUSION For AIS patients receiving EVT, the choice of anesthetic modality did not influence the 3-month neurological outcome while GA is superior to CS in terms of successful reperfusion rate. Moreover, the patients in the GA group were at a higher risk of developing hypotension and pneumonia. Further studies are required to provide more sufficient evidence.

Abstract
BACKGROUND This study aimed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of adjuvant tirofiban in patients with acute basilar artery occlusion due to large-artery atherosclerotic (LAA) receiving endovascular therapy (EVT). METHODS This was a non-randomized, multicenter study using data from the Endovascular Treatment for Acute BASILAR Artery Occlusion (BASILAR) registry. Patients with acute basilar artery occlusion due to LAA within 24h of symptom onset who underwent EVT were included. Patients were divided into tirofiban and non-tirofiban groups according to whether tirofiban was used. The primary outcome was the ordinal modified Rankin scale score at 90 days. Safety outcomes were mortality within 90 days and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) within 48 h. RESULTS A total of 417 patients were included, of whom 275 patients were in the tirofiban group and 142 patients in the non-tirofiban group. Compared with patients in the non-tirofiban group, patients in the tirofiban group were associated with a favorable shift in functional outcome at 90 days (6[4-6] vs 5 [2-6]; adjusted common OR, 2.51; 95 % CI, 1.64-3.83). The mortality was lower in the tirofiban group than the non-tirofiban group (40.7 % vs 58.5 %; adjusted OR, 0.35; 95 % CI, 0.21-0.56). The rate of sICH was 12.2 % in the non-tirofiban group and 5.2 % in the tirofiban group (adjusted OR, 0.37; 95 % CI, 0.17-0.80; P = 0.012). CONCLUSION Tirofiban plus EVT might improve functional outcomes with a good safety for patients with acute basilar artery occlusion due to LAA. The results need to be confirmed in a randomized trial.

Comparative Outcomes of Mechanical Thrombectomy in Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients with ASPECTS 2-3 vs. 4-5. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2024; 33:107528. [PMID: 38134550 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2023.107528] [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: 11/06/2023] [Revised: 12/06/2023] [Accepted: 12/08/2023] [Indexed: 12/24/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The influence of Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) on outcomes following mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with low ASPECTS remains unknown. In this study, we compared the outcomes of AIS patients treated with MT for large vessel occlusion (LVO) categorized by ASPECTS value. METHODS We conducted a retrospective analysis involving 305 patients with AIS caused by LVO, defined as the occlusion of the internal carotid artery and/or the M1 segments of the middle cerebral artery, stratified into two groups: ASPECTS 2-3 and 4-5. The primary outcome was favorable outcome defined as a 90-day modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0-3. Secondary outcomes were 90-day mRS 0-2, 90-day mortality, any intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), and symptomatic ICH (sICH). We performed multivariable logistic regression analysis to evaluate the impact of ASPECTS 2-3 vs. 4-5 on outcomes. RESULTS Fifty-nine patients (19.3%) had ASPECTS 2-3 and 246 (80.7%) had ASPECTS 4-5. Favorable outcomes showed no significant difference between the two groups (adjusted odds ratio [aOR]= 1.13, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.52-2.41, p=0.80). There were also no significant differences in 90-day mRS 0-2 (aOR= 1.65, 95% CI: 0.66-3.99, p=0.30), 90-day mortality (aOR= 1.14, 95% CI: 0.58-2.20, p=0.70), any ICH (aOR= 0.54, 95% CI: 0.28-1.00, p=0.06), and sICH (aOR= 0.70, 95% CI: 0.27-1.63, p = 0.40) between the groups. CONCLUSIONS AIS patients with LVO undergoing MT with ASPECTS 2-3 had similar outcomes compared to ASPECTS 4-5.

Meta-analysis of direct endovascular thrombectomy vs bridging therapy in the management of acute ischemic stroke with large vessel occlusion. Clin Neurol Neurosurg 2024; 236:108070. [PMID: 38071760 DOI: 10.1016/j.clineuro.2023.108070] [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: 11/03/2023] [Revised: 11/21/2023] [Accepted: 11/23/2023] [Indexed: 02/04/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Debates persist when using intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) before mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) due to large-vessel occlusion (LVO). This systematic review and meta-analysis synthesized evidence on outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO), comparing bridging therapy (BT) with MT alone. METHOD We conducted searches of PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, and the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials from inception to July 2023 to identify pertinent clinical trials and observational studies. RESULT 76 studies, involving 37,658 patients, revealed no significant difference in 90-day functional independence between DEVT and BT. However, a trend favoring BT for achieving functional independence with a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) of 0-1 was observed, having Odds ratio (OR) of 0.75 (95% CI 0.66-0.86; p < 0.001). DEVT was associated with higher postprocedural mortality (OR 1.44;95% CI 1.25-1.65; p < 0.001), but a lower risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage compared to BT (OR 0.855; 95% CI 0.621-1.177; p = 0.327). Successful recanalization rates favored BT, emphasizing the importance of individualized treatment decisions (OR 0.759; 95% CI 0.594-0.969; p = 0.027). Sensitivity analyses were conducted to identify key contributors to heterogeneity. CONCLUSION Our meta-analysis underscores the intricate equilibrium between functional efficacy and safety in the evaluation of DEVT and BT for ACS-LVO. Fundamentally, while BT appears more efficacious, concerns about safety arise due to the superior safety profile demonstrated by DEVT. Individualized treatment decisions are imperative, and further trials are warranted to enhance precision in clinical guidance.

Abstract
STAIR XII (12th Stroke Treatment Academy Industry Roundtable) included a workshop to discuss the priorities for advancements in neuroimaging in the diagnostic workup of acute ischemic stroke. The workshop brought together representatives from academia, industry, and government. The participants identified 10 critical areas of priority for the advancement of acute stroke imaging. These include enhancing imaging capabilities at primary and comprehensive stroke centers, refining the analysis and characterization of clots, establishing imaging criteria that can predict the response to reperfusion, optimizing the Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction scale, predicting first-pass reperfusion outcomes, improving imaging techniques post-reperfusion therapy, detecting early ischemia on noncontrast computed tomography, enhancing cone beam computed tomography, advancing mobile stroke units, and leveraging high-resolution vessel wall imaging to gain deeper insights into pathology. Imaging in acute ischemic stroke treatment has advanced significantly, but important challenges remain that need to be addressed. A combined effort from academic investigators, industry, and regulators is needed to improve imaging technologies and, ultimately, patient outcomes.

Abstract
Endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) success to treat acute ischemic stroke varies with factors like stroke etiology and clot composition, which can differ between sexes. We studied if sex-specific blood cell characteristics (BCCs) are related to recanalization success. We analyzed electronic health records of 333 EVT patients from a single intervention center, and extracted 71 BCCs from the Sapphire flow cytometry analyzer. Through Sparse Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis, incorporating cross-validation and stability selection, we identified BCCs associated with successful recanalization (TICI 3) in both sexes. Stroke etiology was considered, while controlling for cardiovascular risk factors. Of the patients, successful recanalization was achieved in 51% of women and 49% of men. 21 of the 71 BCCs showed significant differences between sexes (pFDR-corrected < 0.05). The female-focused recanalization model had lower error rates than both combined [t(192.4) = 5.9, p < 0.001] and male-only models [t(182.6) = - 15.6, p < 0.001]. In women, successful recanalization and cardioembolism were associated with a higher number of reticulocytes, while unsuccessful recanalization and large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) as cause of stroke were associated with a higher mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration. In men, unsuccessful recanalization and LAA as cause of stroke were associated with a higher coefficient of variance of lymphocyte complexity of the intracellular structure. Sex-specific BCCs related to recanalization success varied and were linked to stroke etiology. This enhanced understanding may facilitate personalized treatment for acute ischemic stroke.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravenous alteplase treatment (IVT) for acute ischemic stroke carries a risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH). However, reperfusion of an occluded vessel itself may contribute to the risk of ICH. We determined whether IVT and reperfusion are associated with ICH or its volume in the Multicenter Randomized Clinical trial of Endovascular treatment for Acute ischemic stroke in the Netherlands (MR CLEAN)-NO IV trial. METHODS The MR CLEAN-NO IV trial randomized patients with acute ischemic stroke due to large vessel occlusion to receive either IVT followed by endovascular treatment (EVT) or EVT alone. ICH was classified according to the Heidelberg bleeding classification on follow-up MRI or CT approximately 8 hours-7 days after stroke. Hemorrhage volume was measured with ITK-snap. Successful reperfusion was defined as extended Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction (eTICI) score of 2b-3. Multinomial and binary adjusted logistic regression were used to determine the association of IVT and reperfusion with ICH subtypes. RESULTS Of 539 included patients, 173 (32%) developed ICH and 30 suffered from symptomatic ICH (sICH) (6%). Of the patients with ICH, 102 had hemorrhagic infarction, 47 had parenchymal hematoma, 44 had SAH, and six had other ICH. Reperfusion was associated with a decreased risk of SAH, and IVT was not associated with SAH (eTICI 2b-3: adjusted OR 0.45, 95% CI 0.21 to 0.97; EVT without IVT: OR 1.6, 95% CI 0.91 to 2.8). Reperfusion status and IVT were not associated with overall ICH, hemorrhage volume, and sICH (sICH: EVT without IVT, OR 0.96, 95% CI 0.41 to 2.25; eTICI 2b-3, OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.23 to 1.05). CONCLUSION Neither IVT administration before EVT nor successful reperfusion after EVT were associated with ICH, hemorrhage volume, and sICH. SAH occurred more often in patients for whom successful reperfusion was not achieved.

First-Pass Recanalization with EmboTrap II in Acute Ischemic Stroke (FREE-AIS): A Multicenter Prospective Study. Korean J Radiol 2023; 24:145-154. [PMID: 36725355 PMCID: PMC9892223 DOI: 10.3348/kjr.2022.0618] [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: 08/25/2022] [Revised: 11/18/2022] [Accepted: 12/11/2022] [Indexed: 01/28/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to evaluate the efficacy of EmboTrap II in terms of first-pass recanalization and to determine whether it could yield favorable outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS In this multicenter, prospective study, we consecutively enrolled patients who underwent mechanical thrombectomy using EmboTrap II as a front-line device. The primary outcome was the first pass effect (FPE) rate defined by modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) grade 2c or 3 by the first pass of EmboTrap II. In addition, modified FPE (mFPE; mTICI grade 2b-3 by the first pass of EmboTrap II), successful recanalization (final mTICI grade 2b-3), and clinical outcomes were assessed. We also analyzed the effect of FPE on a modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score of 0-2 at 3 months. RESULTS Two hundred-ten patients (mean age ± standard deviation, 73.3 ± 11.4 years; male, 55.7%) were included. Ninety-nine patients (47.1%) had FPE, and mFPE was achieved in 150 (71.4%) patients. Successful recanalization was achieved in 191 (91.0%) patients. Among them, 164 (85.9%) patients underwent successful recanalization by exclusively using EmboTrap II. The time from groin puncture to FPE was 25.0 minutes (interquartile range, 17.0-35.0 minutes). Procedure-related complications were observed in seven (3.3%) patients. Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage developed in 14 (6.7%) patients. One hundred twenty-three (58.9% of 209 completely followed) patients had an mRS score of 0-2. Sixteen (7.7% of 209) patients died during the follow-up period. Patients who had successful recanalization with FPE were four times more likely to have an mRS score of 0-2 than those who had successful recanalization without FPE (adjusted odds ratio, 4.13; 95% confidence interval, 1.59-10.8; p = 0.004). CONCLUSION Mechanical thrombectomy using the front-line EmboTrap II is effective and safe. In particular, FPE rates were high. Achieving FPE was important for an mRS score of 0-2, even in patients with successful recanalization.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The first-pass effect in endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) has been associated with better clinical outcomes and decreased stroke progression in large vessel occlusion but has not been evaluated in distal, medium vessel occlusions (DMVOs). OBJECTIVE To assess the impact on clinical outcome and stroke progression of the modified first-pass effect (defined as a successful first-pass [modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction 2b/2c/3] revascularization) in patients who underwent EVT for a primary DMVOs. METHODS We collected data from consecutive patients who underwent EVT for a primary DMVO at a single large academic center. We compared the rate of good clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale of 0-2 at 3 months) and stroke progression between patients who demonstrated modified first-pass effect (mFPE) vs those who did not (no-mFPE). RESULTS Between January 2018 and January 2021, we included 60 patients who underwent EVT for an acute ischemic stroke with a primary DMVO. Overall, mFPE was achieved in 32% (19/60) of EVTs. The mFPE was associated with a higher rate of good clinical outcome compared with no-mFPE (89% vs 46%, odds ratio = 16.04 [2.23-115.39], P = .006 in multivariate analysis). Final stroke volume was less among mFPE patients (6.9 mL [4.7-13.6] vs 23 mL [14.6-47], P = .001) as was stroke progression (6.8 mL [4-12.1] vs 17.8 mL [8.1-34.9], P = .016). The mFPE was still associated with higher rates of good clinical outcome when compared with patients reaching an modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction score ≥2b in more than 1 pass (89% vs 53%; odds ratio = 7.37 [1.43-38.08], P = .017). CONCLUSION The mFPE may be associated with better clinical outcomes and lower stroke progression in DMVO.

Comparison of First-Pass Effect in Aspiration vs. Stent-Retriever for Acute Intracranial ICA Occlusion. Front Neurol 2022; 13:925159.

Abstract
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the best endovascular approach (aspiration or stent-retriever) and the impact of stent retriever size and length on clinical and angiographic outcomes in patients with acute intracranial ICA occlusion. We conducted a retrospective analysis of a prospective database of consecutive patients with acute intracranial ICA occlusion undergoing endovascular treatment in four Comprehensive Stroke Center between June-2019 and December-2020. We include 121 patients; Stent-retriever (SR) was used as first technical approach in 107 patients (88.4%) and aspiration was used in 14 patients (11.6%). SR group had higher rate of FPE compared to aspiration group (29 vs. 0%, p = 0.02). In SR subgroup, treatment highlighted higher FPE in the 6 × 50 SR (37.7%), than in the rest of the SR which are 21.2% (4–5 mm size and 20–50 mm length SR) and 19% (6 mm size and 25–40 mm length SR), but it was not found to be statistically significant. There were no other significant differences across the groups regarding primary angiographic or clinical outcomes. In our intracranial ICA occlusion series, stent retrievers were superior to direct aspiration in obtaining FPEs and mFPEs, and longer devices achieved better results with no statistically significant difference. Further studies evaluating the effects of different ICA clot removal approaches are warranted to confirm these results.

J Clin Neurosci 2022; 102:49-53.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION For patients undergoing endovascular thrombectomy (EVT), those who are recanalized with a successful single pass (first pass effect, FPE) have better functional outcomes than those who do not. There is a scarcity of data regarding predictors of FPE in basilar artery occlusion (BAO). We aim to determine what characteristics may predict FPE for posterior circulation thrombectomies in a cohort of patients undergoing EVT for BAO. METHODS We reviewed prospectively-collected data for patients presenting to a comprehensive stroke center with BAO between December 2015 and April 2019. Patients were included in this study if they underwent manual aspiration thrombectomy for BAO. Patients were excluded if they had occlusions of the posterior cerebral or vertebral arteries or if they had tandem lesions. Patients were stratified by whether FPE or modified FPE (mFPE) was achieved, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to identify predictors of FPE and the effect of FPE on clinical outcome. RESULTS 100 patients with BAO underwent thrombectomy. Mean age was 64.7 ± 16.7, 42% were female, and median NIHSS was 20 (IQR 11-27). 33% met criteria for FPE and 60% for mFPE. Univariate analysis identified female gender, lack of IV-tPA use, pcASPECTS, atrial fibrillation, and hyperlipidemia as possible predictors of FPE. On multivariate analysis, age, pcASPECTs, atrial fibrillation, hyperlipidemia and IV-tPA use were not independent predictors of FPE or mFPE. Female gender was an independent predictor of mFPE (p = 0.02), but not FPE (p = 0.18). FPE was a predictor of mRS 0-2 at 90 days (p = 0.04). Predictors of mortality were age (p < 0.01), baseline NIHSS (p < 0.01) and mFPE (p = 0.01). CONCLUSION In this cohort analysis of 100 patients with basilar artery occlusion undergoing manual aspiration thrombectomy, female gender was associated with mFPE but not FPE. Previously-reported anterior circulation FPE predictors including age, ASPECTS and atrial fibrillation were not predictors of FPE in this cohort of patients with BAO.

Clinical and Non-Clinical Determinants of the Effect of Mechanical Thrombectomy and Post-Stroke Functional Status of Patients in Short and Long-Term Follow-Up. J Clin Med 2021; 10:5084. [PMID: 34768603 PMCID: PMC8584929 DOI: 10.3390/jcm10215084] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/29/2021] [Revised: 10/10/2021] [Accepted: 10/26/2021] [Indexed: 01/07/2023] Open
Abstract
To date, inconsistent results evaluating the effect of parameters on mechanical thrombectomy (MT) outcomes in stroke-patients have been published. This study aimed to identify the key parameters for functional status after MT in stroke-patients in short and long-term follow-up. METHOD The study analysis focused on the relevance of selected clinical and non-clinical parameters to the functional status of the patients after MT. RESULTS 417 stroke-patients (mean age 67.8 ± 13.2 years) were qualified. Atrial fibrillation, and leukocytosis were significant for the neurological status on the first day of stroke (p = 0.036, and p = 0.0004, respectively). The parameters with the strongest effect on the functional status on day 10 were: age (p = 0.009), NIHSS (p = 0.002), hyperglycemia (p = 0.009), the result in TICI (p = 0.046), and first pass effect (p = 0.043). The parameters with the strongest effect on the functional status on day 365 were: age and NIHSS on the first day of stroke (p = 0.0002 and 0.002, respectively). Leukocytosis and the neurological status at baseline were key parameters associated with ICB after MT (p = 0.007 and p = 0.003, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Age and neurological status in the ultra-acute phase of stroke are crucial for the functional status in short and long-term observations of patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy. Atrial fibrillation, hyperglycemia, and inflammatory state are relevant to the short-term post-stroke functional status. First pass effect and the degree of post-interventional reperfusion are important technical parameters to the short-term functional status. Neurological status and white blood count during the acute phase are associated with a high rate of post-procedural intracranial bleeding.
