    Abstract: We determined to investigate the incidence and clinical impact of new cerebral microbleeds after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute stroke. Methods The THAWS was a multicenter, randomized trial to study the efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase in patients with wake-up stroke or unknown onset stroke. Prescheduled T2*-weighted imaging assessed cerebral microbleeds at three time points: baseline, 22–36 h, and 7–14 days. Outcomes included new cerebral microbleeds development, modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≥3 at 90 days, and change in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score from 24 h to 7 days. Results Of all 131 patients randomized in the THAWS trial, 113 patients (mean 74.3 ± 12.6 years, 50 female, 62 allocated to intravenous thrombolysis) were available for analysis. Overall, 46 (41%) had baseline cerebral microbleeds (15 strictly lobar cerebral microbleeds, 14 mixed cerebral microbleeds, and 17 deep cerebral microbleeds). New cerebral microbleeds only emerged in the intravenous thrombolysis group (seven patients, 11%) within a median of 28.3 h, and did not additionally increase within a median of 7.35 days. In adjusted models, number of cerebral microbleeds (relative risk (RR) 1.30, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.17–1.44), mixed distribution (RR 19.2, 95% CI: 3.94–93.7), and cerebral microbleeds burden ≥5 (RR 44.9, 95% CI: 5.78–349.8) were associated with new cerebral microbleeds. New cerebral microbleeds were associated with an increase in NIHSS score ( p = 0.023). Treatment with alteplase in patients with baseline ≥5 cerebral microbleeds resulted in a numerical shift toward worse outcomes on ordinal mRS (median [IQR]; 4 [3–4] vs. 0 [0–3]), compared with those with 〈 5 cerebral microbleeds (common odds ratio 17.1, 95% CI: 0.76–382.8). The association of baseline ≥5 cerebral microbleeds with ordinal mRS score differed according to the treatment group ( p interaction = 0.042). Conclusion New cerebral microbleeds developed within 36 h in 11% of the patients after intravenous thrombolysis, and they were significantly associated with mixed-distribution and ≥5 cerebral microbleeds. New cerebral microbleeds development might impede neurological improvement. Furthermore, cerebral microbleeds burden might affect the effect of alteplase.

    Abstract: Nicardipine has strong, rapidly acting antihypertensive activity. The effects of acute systolic blood pressure levels achieved with intravenous nicardipine after onset of intracerebral hemorrhage on clinical outcomes were determined. Methods A systematic review and individual participant data analysis of articles before 1 October 2020 identified on PubMed were performed (PROSPERO: CRD42020213857). Prospective studies involving hyperacute intracerebral hemorrhage adults treated with intravenous nicardipine whose outcome was assessed using the modified Rankin Scale were eligible. Outcomes included death or disability at 90 days, defined as the modified Rankin Scale score of 4–6, and hematoma expansion, defined as an increase ≥6 mL from baseline to 24-h computed tomography. Summary of review Three studies met the eligibility criteria. For 1265 patients enrolled (age 62.6 ± 13.0 years, 484 women), death or disability occurred in 38.2% and hematoma expansion occurred in 17.4%. Mean hourly systolic blood pressure during the initial 24 h was positively associated with death or disability (adjusted odds ratio (aOR) 1.12, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.00–1.26 per 10 mmHg) and hematoma expansion (1.16, 1.02–1.32). Mean hourly systolic blood pressure from 1 h to any timepoint during the initial 24 h was positively associated with death or disability. Later achievement of systolic blood pressure to ≤140 mmHg increased the risk of death or disability (aOR 1.02, 95% CI 1.00–1.05 per hour). Conclusions Rapid lowering of systolic blood pressure by continuous administration of intravenous nicardipine during the initial 24 h in hyperacute intracerebral hemorrhage was associated with lower risks of hematoma expansion and 90-day death or disability without increasing serious adverse events.
