    Abstract: The TST trial (Treat Stroke to Target) evaluated the benefit of targeting a LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in 2860 patients with ischemic stroke with atherosclerotic stenosis of cerebral vasculature or aortic arch plaque 〉 4 mm, in a French and Korean population. The follow-up lasted a median of 5.3 years in French patients (similar to the median follow-up time in the SPARCL trial [Stroke Prevention by Aggressive Reduction in Cholesterol Level]) and 2.0 years in Korean patients. Exposure duration to statin is a well-known driver for cardiovascular risk reduction. We report here the TST results in the French cohort. Methods— One thousand seventy-three French patients were assigned to 〈 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) and 1075 to 100±10 mg/dL (90–110 mg/dL, 2.3–2.8 mmol/L). To achieve these goals, investigators used the statin and dosage of their choice and added ezetimibe on top if needed. The primary outcome was the composite of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, new symptoms requiring urgent coronary or carotid revascularization and vascular death. Results— After a median follow-up of 5.3 years, the achieved LDL cholesterol was 66 (1.69 mmol/L) and 96 mg/dL (2.46 mmol/L) on average, respectively. The primary end point occurred in 9.6% and 12.9% of patients, respectively (HR, 0.74 [95% CI, 0.57–0.94]; P =0.019). Cerebral infarction or urgent carotid revascularization following transient ischemic attack was reduced by 27% ( P =0.046). Cerebral infarction or intracranial hemorrhage was reduced by 28% ( P =0.023). The primary outcome or intracranial hemorrhage was reduced by 25% ( P =0.021). Intracranial hemorrhages occurred in 13 and 11 patients, respectively (HR, 1.17 [95% CI, 0.53–2.62]; P =0.70). Conclusions— After an ischemic stroke of documented atherosclerotic origin, targeting a LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL during 5.3 years avoided 1 subsequent major vascular event in 4 (number needed to treat of 30) and no increase in intracranial hemorrhage.

    Abstract: Although statins are effective in secondary prevention of ischemic stroke, they are also associated with an increase risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in certain conditions. In the TST trial (Treat Stroke to Target), we prespecified an exploration of the predictors of incident ICH. Methods: Patients with ischemic stroke in the previous 3 months or transient ischemic attack within the previous 15 days and evidence of cerebrovascular or coronary artery atherosclerosis were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to a target LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL or 100±10 mg/dL, using statin or ezetimibe. Results: Among 2860 patients enrolled, 31 incident ICH occurred over a median follow-up of 3 years (18 and 13 in the lower and higher target group, 3.21/1000 patient-years [95% CI, 2.38–4.04] and 2.32/1000 patient-years [95% CI, 1.61–3.03] , respectively). While there were no baseline predictors of ICH, uncontrolled hypertension (HR, 2.51 [95% CI, 1.01–6.31], P =0.041) and being on anticoagulant (HR, 2.36 [95% CI, 1.00–5.62], P =0.047)] during the trial were significant predictors. On-treatment low LDL cholesterol was not a predictor of ICH. Conclusions: Targeting an LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL compared with 100±10 mg/dL in patients with atherosclerotic ischemic stroke nonsignificantly increased the risk of ICH. Incident ICHs were not associated with low LDL cholesterol. Uncontrolled hypertension and anticoagulant therapy were associated with ICH which has important clinical implications.

    More Than 50 Percent Reduction in LDL Cholesterol in Patients With Target LDL 〈70 mg/dL After a Stroke
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2023

    Abstract: Whether a strategy to target an LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol 〈 70 mg/dL is more effective when LDL is reduced 〉 50% from baseline rather than 〈 50% from baseline has not been investigated. METHODS: The Treat Stroke to Target trial was conducted in France and South Korea in 61 sites between March 2010 and December 2018. Patients with ischemic stroke in the previous 3 months or transient ischemic attack within the previous 15 days and evidence of cerebrovascular or coronary artery atherosclerosis were randomly assigned to a target LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL or 100±10 mg/dL, using statin and/or ezetimibe as needed. We used the results of repeated LDL measurements (median, 5 [2–6] per patient) during 3.9 years (interquartile range, 2.1–6.8) of follow-up. The primary outcome was the composite of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, new symptoms requiring urgent coronary or carotid revascularization, and vascular death. Cox regression model including lipid-lowering therapy as a time-varying variable, after adjustment for randomization strategy, age, sex, index event (stroke or transient ischemic attack), and time since the index event. RESULTS: Among 2860 patients enrolled, patients in the lower target group who had 〉 50% LDL cholesterol reduction from baseline during the trial had a higher baseline LDL cholesterol and a lower LDL cholesterol achieved as compared to patients who had 〈 50% LDL cholesterol reduction (155±32 and 62 mg/dL versus 121±34 and 74 mg/dL, respectively, P 〈 0.001 for both). In the 〈 70 mg/dL target group, patients with 〉 50% LDL reduction had a significant reduction in the primary outcome as compared to the higher target group (hazard ratio, 0.61 [95% CI, 0.43–0.88]; P =0.007) and patients with 〈 50% LDL reduction from baseline had little reduction (hazard ratio, 0.96 [95% CI, 0.73–1.26]; P =0.75). CONCLUSIONS: In this post hoc analysis of the TST trial, targeting an LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL reduced the risk of primary outcome compared with 100±10 mg/dL provided LDL cholesterol reduction from baseline was superior to 50%, thereby suggesting that the magnitude of LDL cholesterol reduction was as important to consider as the target level to achieve.

    Leptomeningeal Collaterals and Infarct Progression in Patients With Acute Large‐Vessel Occlusion and Low NIHSS
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2023
    In:  Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology Vol. 3, No. 5 ( 2023-09)

    In: Stroke: Vascular and Interventional Neurology, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 3, No. 5 ( 2023-09)
    Abstract: Approximately 10% of patients with acute ischemic stroke with large‐vessel occlusion (LVO) have mild neurological deficits. Although leptomeningeal collaterals (LMCs) are the major determinant of clinical outcomes for patients with acute ischemic stroke with LVO, the contribution of baseline LMC status to subsequent infarct progression in patients with mild stroke with LVO is poorly defined. Methods This observational study included patients with acute anterior circulation LVO and mild stroke symptoms (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale 〈 6) from a prospectively collected, multicenter, national stroke registry. The Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score was quantified on the initial and follow‐up images. An infarct progression, defined as any Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score decrease between the initial versus follow‐up scans, was categorized as either 0/1/2+. The LMCs on the baseline images were graded as good, fair, or poor. Results Of the 623 included patients (mean age, 67.6±13.4 years; 380 [61.0%] men; 186 [29.9%] with reperfusion treatment), the baseline LMC was graded as good in 331 (53.1%), fair in 219 (35.2%), and poor in 73 (11.7%). The Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score decrement was noted as 0 in 288 (46%) patients, 1 in 154 (24%), and 2+ in 181 (29%). A poor LMC was associated with an infarct progression (adjusted odds ratio, 2.05 [95% CI, 1.22–3.47]). Conclusions Poor collateral blood flow was associated with infarct progression in patients with acute ischemic stroke with LVO and mild symptoms. In this selective population, early assessment of collateral blood flow status can help in early detection of patients susceptible to infarct progression.

    Abstract: There is much uncertainty in endovascular treatment (EVT) decisions in patients with acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) and mild neurological deficits. Methods From a prospective, nationwide stroke registry, all patients with LVO and baseline NIHSS & lt;6 presenting within 24 h from the time last known well (LKW) were included. Early neurological deterioration (END) developed before EVT was prospectively collected as an increasing total NIHSS score ≥2 or any worsening of the NIHSS consciousness or motor subscores during hospitalization not related to EVT. Significant hemorrhage was defined as PH2 hemorrhagic transformation or hemorrhage at a remote site. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was prospectively collected at 3 months. Results Among 1,083 patients, 149 (14%) patients received EVT after a median of 5.9 [3.6–12.3] h after LKW. In propensity score-matched analyses, EVT was not associated with mRS 0-1 (matched OR 0.99 [0.63–1.54] ) but increased the risk of a significant hemorrhage (matched OR, 4.51 [1.59–12.80]). Extraneous END occurred in 207 (19%) patients after a median of 24.5 h [IQR, 13.5–41.9 h] after LKW (incidence rate, 1.41 [95% CI, 1.23–1.62] per 100 person-hours). END unrelated to EVT showed a tendency to modify the effectiveness of EVT (P-for-interaction, 0.08), which decreased the odds of having mRS 0–1 in mild LVO patients without END (adjusted OR, 0.63 [0.40–0.99] ). Conclusions The use of EVT in patients with acute LVO and low NIHSS scores may require the assessment of individual risks of early deterioration, hemorrhagic complications and expected benefit.

    Abstract: Purpose: The usefulness of the existing risk stratification tools for atrial fibrillation (AF) is limited in predicting stroke recurrence in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Neuroimaging parameters obtained from diagnostic work-up of AIS could offer more elaborate prediction. Methods: A multicenter prospective cohort of AIS patients with AF recruited from 14 university hospitals or regional stroke centers were followed up for recurrent ischemic stroke (RIS) and a composite of all stroke and TIA. Neuroimaging features were derived from acute and chronic infarction patterns, and SVD markers such as lacunes, CMBs, and WMH. Cumulative incidences according to each neuroimaging parameter were estimated and compared using the Kaplan-Meier method with log-rank test and multivariable cause-specific hazard models with death as a competing risk. Results: A total of 2,270 patients were followed up for 431 days (IQR, 365-735), during which 111 RISs and 130 composite outcomes occurred. In unadjusted analysis, lesion multiplicity among acute infarction patterns, the presence of chronic non-lacunar infarction, and the presence of lacunes among SVD markers increased the risk of RIS significantly (Table). Other neuroimaging features such as territory multiplicity and location, confluency, topography, and size of acute lesions, lesion multiplicity, territory multiplicity, confluency, topography, and size of chronic infarction, number of lacunes, presence of CMBs, and WMH did not affect the incidence of RIS. The adjusted hazard ratios of lesion multiplicity of acute infarction, chronic infarction and lacunes were 1.45 (95% CI, 0.99-2.11), 1.57 (1.06-2.34) and 1.97 (1.30-2.98) for RIS, respectively. Similar findings were obtained for the composite outcome. Conclusions: Several neuroimaging markers were associated with recurrent ischemic stroke in AIS with AF. This could pave the way to a new stratification scheme for AF including neuroimaging parameters.

    Abstract: We aimed to evaluate covert brain infarction (CBI), frequently encountered during the diagnostic work-up of acute ischemic stroke, as a risk factor for stroke recurrence in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Methods: For this prospective cohort study, from patients with acute ischemic stroke hospitalized at 14 centers between 2017 and 2019, we enrolled AF patients without history of stroke or transient ischemic attack and divided them into the CBI (+) and CBI (−) groups. The 2 groups were compared regarding the 1-year cumulative incidence of recurrent ischemic stroke and all-cause mortality using the Fine and Gray subdistribution hazard model with nonstroke death as a competing risk and the Cox frailty model, respectively. Each CBI lesion was also categorized into either embolic-appearing (EA) or non-EA pattern CBI. Adjusted hazard ratios and 95% CIs of any CBI, EA pattern CBI only, non-EA pattern CBI only, and both CBIs were estimated. Results: Among 1383 first-ever stroke patients with AF, 578 patients (41.8%) had CBI. Of these 578 with CBI, EA pattern CBI only, non-EA pattern CBI only, and both CBIs were 61.8% (n=357), 21.8% (n=126), and 16.4% (n=95), respectively. The estimated 1-year cumulative incidence of recurrent ischemic stroke was 5.2% and 1.9% in the CBI (+) and CBI (−) groups, respectively ( P =0.001 by Gray test). CBI increased the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke (adjusted hazard ratio [95% CI], 2.91 [1.44–5.88] ) but did not the risk of all-cause mortality (1.32 [0.97–1.80]). The EA pattern CBI only and both CBIs elevated the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke (2.76 [1.32–5.77] and 5.39 [2.25–12.91], respectively), while the non-EA pattern only did not (1.44 [0.40–5.16] ). Conclusions: Our study suggests that AF patients with CBI might have increased risk of recurrent stroke. CBI could be considered when estimating the stroke risk in patients with AF.

    Abstract: Off‐hour presentation can affect treatment delay and clinical outcomes in endovascular therapy ( EVT ) for acute ischemic stroke. We aimed to examine the treatment delays and clinical outcomes of EVT between on‐ and off‐hour admission and to evaluate the effect of hospital procedure volume and the number of neurointerventionalists on off‐hour EVT . Methods and Results From a multicenter registry, we identified patients who were treated with EVT within 12 hours of symptom. Annual hospital procedure volume was divided as low ( 〈 30), medium (30–60), and high ( 〉 60). The effect of the number of neurointerventionalists and annual hospital procedure volume on clinical outcome was estimated by the generalized estimation equation. Of the 31 133 stroke patients, 1564 patients met the eligibility criteria (mean age: 69±12 years; median baseline National Institutes of Health stroke scale score, 15 [interquartile range, 10–19]). Of 1564 patients, 893 (57.1%) arrived during off‐hour. The off‐hour patients had greater median door‐to‐puncture time (110  versus 95 minutes; P 〈 0.001) compared with on‐hour patients. Despite the treatment delay, the functional outcome at 3 months did not differ between off‐ and on‐hour (odds ratio with 95% CI for 3‐month modified Rankin Scale 0–2, 0.99 [0.78–1.25]; P =0.90). The presence of three neurointerventionalists was significantly associated with favorable outcomes at 3 months during on‐ and off‐hour (2.07 [1.53–2.81]; P 〈 0.001). The association was not observed for annual hospital procedural volume and the functional outcomes. Conclusions The number of neurointerventionalists was more crucial to effective around‐the‐clock EVT for acute stroke patients than hospital procedural volume.
