    Abstract: It is unclear whether patients with different stroke/transient ischemic attack etiologies benefit differently from gene-directed dual antiplatelet therapy. This study explored the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin in transient ischemic attack or minor stroke with different causes in the CHANCE-2 trial (Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients With Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events-II). METHODS: This was a prespecified analysis of the CHANCE-2 trial, which enrolled 6412 patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack who carried CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles. Patients with centralized evaluation of TOAST (Trial of ORG 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment) classification of large-artery atherosclerosis, small-vessel occlusion, and stroke of undetermined cause were included. The primary efficacy outcome was new stroke, and the primary safety outcome was severe or moderate bleeding, both within 90 days. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the interaction of TOAST classification with the effects of dual antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin. RESULTS: A total of 6336 patients were included in this study. In patients administered ticagrelor-aspirin and clopidogrel-aspirin, respectively, stroke recurred in 85 (9.8%) and 88 (10.7%) patients with large-artery atherosclerosis (hazard ratio, 0.86 [95% CI, 0.63–1.18]; P =0.34); 32 (3.6%) and 61 (7.0%) patients with small-vessel occlusion (hazard ratio, 0.51 [95% CI, 0.33–0.79]; P =0.002); and 68 (4.8%) and 87 (5.9%) patients with stroke of undetermined cause (hazard ratio, 0.80 [95% CI, 0.58–1.10]; P =0.17), with P =0.08 for the treatment×cause subtype interaction effect. There were no significant differences in severe or moderate bleeding events in patients with different cause and different treatment. CONCLUSIONS: In this prespecified analysis of the CHANCE-2 trial, the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin in preventing new stroke were consistent in patients with different causes. The influence of stroke cause on benefit of gene-guided antiplatelet therapy should be explored by further trials. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT04078737.

    Abstract: Ischemic stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality. Thrombolytic therapy improves disability and survival rates; however, to be effective, it must be given within 4.5 h of onset. Moreover, thrombolytic therapy is frequently contraindicated. Therefore, alternative therapeutic options are required. In China, cinepazide maleate injection has been shown to improve the cerebral collateral circulation and further reduce disability in stroke patients; however, very few studies investigating this therapy have been conducted to date. Therefore, this study aimed to further confirm the efficacy and safety of cinepazide maleate injection in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods Patients with acute ischemic stroke were administered an intravenous infusion of 320 mg cinepazide maleate or placebo once daily for 14 days. All patients were also administered basic therapy (citicoline sodium). The primary efficacy endpoint was the proportion of patients with a modified Rankin scale (mRS) ≤2 on day 90. Secondary efficacy endpoints included Barthel Index ≥95. Safety was evaluated by recording all adverse events (AEs), monitoring laboratory parameters and vital signs, and electrocardiogram. Results In total, 937 patients with an acute ischemic stroke were included, with a mean (standard deviation, SD) National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score of 8.8 (2.4) and a mean (SD) stroke onset of 30.9 (11.4) hours prior. Following treatment for 90 days, the proportion of patients with an mRS score ≤ 2 was significantly higher in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group (60.9% vs. 50.1%; p  = 0.0004). Moreover, the proportion of patients with a Barthel Index of ≥95 on day 90 was also significantly higher in the cinepazide maleate group than in the control group (53.4% vs. 46.7%; p  = 0.0230). There were no statistically significant differences in safety parameters between the cinepazide maleate and control groups. Conclusions The results of this study show that cinepazide maleate injection is superior to placebo in improving neurological function and activities of daily living, reducing disability, and promoting functional recovery in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Cinepazide maleate injection was safe and well tolerated with no unexpected AEs reported. Trial registration Chinese Clinical Trial Registry CTR20160292 and ChiCTR1900023827 .

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum cystatin C levels and the presence and severity of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Methods: Community-dwelling residents in the Lishui city in China from the cross-sectional survey of the PRECISE (Poly-Vascular Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and Vascular Events) cohort study were included in present study from 2017 to 2019. Total CSVD burden and modified total CSVD burden score, as well as the markers of CSVD on magnetic resonance imaging, including white matter hyperintensity, lacunes, cerebral microbleeds, and perivascular spaces, were assessed at baseline survey. Participants were divided into 4 groups according to the quartiles of cystatin C. The association of serum cystatin C with total CSVD burden and imaging markers was analyzed using ordinal or binary logistic regression models. Furthermore, 2-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was performed to investigate the genetically predicted effect of cystatin C on CSVD. Results: A total of 3061 participants were included in this study. The mean age of the participants was 61.2±6.7 years, and 1637 (53.5%) were women. Higher level of cystatin C was associated with an increased total CSVD burden and modified total CSVD burden (Q4 versus Q1: common odds ratio [OR], 1.30 [95% CI, 1.03–1.64] and 1.32 [95% CI, 1.01–1.73]) after adjustment for covariates. Further, compared with the first quartile of cystatin C, subjects in the last quartile had higher risk of lacunes (OR, 1.99 [95% CI, 1.05–3.76] ), modified white matter hyperintensity burden (common OR, 1.42 [95% CI, 1.07–1.90]), and moderate-to-severe perivascular spaces (OR, 2.15 [95% CI, 1.29–3.59] ) but not cerebral microbleeds. The Mendelian randomization analysis showed that a genetically predicted higher cystatin C level was associated with increased risk of lacunar stroke (OR, 1.16 [95% CI, 1.06–1.27]). Conclusions: In this community-based study, we found a possible association between cystatin C and CSVD, especially for lacunes, that was independent of estimated glomerular filtration rate.

    Abstract: This study aims to investigate the associations of glymphatic system with the presence, severity and neuroimaging phenotypes of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) in a community-based population. Method This report included 2219 community-dwelling people aged 50–75 years who participated in the PolyvasculaR Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and vaScular Events cohort. The diffusivity along perivascular spaces based on diffusion tensor imaging (DTI-ALPS index) was measured to assess glymphatic pathway. The presence and severity of CSVD were estimated using a CSVD score (points from 0 to 4) and a modified CSVD score (points from 0 to 4), which were driven by 4 neuroimaging features of CSVD, including white matter hyperintensity (WMH), enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS), lacunes, cerebral microbleeds. Brain atrophy (BA) was also evaluated. Binary or ordinal logistic regression analyses were carried out to investigate the relationships of DTI-ALPS index with CSVD. Result The mean age was 61.3 (SD 6.6) years, and 1019 (45.9%) participants were men. The average DTI-ALPS index was 1.67±0.14. Individuals in the first quartile (Q1) of the DTI-ALPS index had higher risks of the presence of CSVD (OR 1.77, 95% CI 1.33 to 2.35, p 〈 0.001), modified presence of CSVD (odds ratio (OR) 1.80, 95% CI 1.38 to 2.34, p 〈 0.001), total burden of CSVD (common OR (cOR) 1.89, 95% CI 1.43 to 2.49, p 〈 0.001) and modified total burden of CSVD (cOR 1.95, 95% CI 1.51 to 2.50, p 〈 0.001) compared with those in the fourth quartile (Q4). Additionally, individuals in Q1 of the DTI-ALPS index had increased risks of WMH burden, modified WMH burden, lacunes, basal ganglia-EPVS and BA (all p 〈 0.05). Conclusion A lower DTI-ALPS index underlay the presence, severity and typical neuroimaging markers of CSVD, implying that glymphatic impairment may interact with CSVD-related pathology in the general ageing population.

    Abstract: This study investigated the relationships of neutrophil count (NC), neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) with cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Methods A total of 3052 community-dwelling residents from the Poly-vasculaR Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and vaScular Events (PRECISE) study were involved in this cross-sectional study. CSVD burden and imaging markers, including white matter hyperintensity (WMH), lacunes, cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and enlarged perivascular spaces in basal ganglia (BG-EPVS), were assessed according to total CSVD burden score. The associations of NC, NLR and SII with CSVD and imaging markers were evaluated using logistic regression models. Furthermore, two-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis was performed to investigate the genetically predicted effect of NC on CSVD. The prognostic performances of NC, NLR and SII for the presence of CSVD were assessed. Results At baseline, the mean age was 61.2 ± 6.7 years, and 53.5% of the participants were female. Higher NC was suggestively associated with increased total CSVD burden and modified total CSVD burden (Q4 vs. Q1: common odds ratio (cOR) 1.33, 95% CI 1.05–1.70; cOR 1.28, 95% CI 1.02–1.60) and marginally correlated with the presence of CSVD (OR 1.29, 95% CI 1.00–1.66). Furthermore, elevated NC was linked to a higher risk of lacune (OR 2.13, 95% CI 1.25–3.62) and moderate-to-severe BG-EPVS (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.14–2.44). A greater NLR was related to moderate-to-severe BG-EPVS (OR 1.68, 95% CI 1.16–2.45). Individuals with a higher SII had an increased risk of modified WMH burden (OR 1.35, 95% CI 1.08–1.69) and moderate-to-severe BG-EPVS (OR 1.70, 95% CI 1.20–2.41). MR analysis showed that genetically predicted higher NC was associated with an increased risk of lacunar stroke (OR 1.20, 95% CI 1.04–1.39) and small vessel stroke (OR 1.21, 95% CI 1.06–1.38). The addition of NC to the basic model with traditional risk factors improved the predictive ability for the presence of CSVD, as validated by the net reclassification index and integrated discrimination index (all p   〈  0.05). Conclusions This community-based population study found a suggestive association between NC and CSVD, especially for BG-EPVS and lacune, and provided evidence supporting the prognostic significance of NC.

    Abstract: Previous research has linked specific modifiable lifestyle factors to age‐related cognitive decline in adults. Little is known about the potential role of an overall healthy lifestyle in brain structure. We investigated the association of adherence to a combination of healthy lifestyle factors with neurodegeneration‐related brain structural markers in middle‐aged and older adults. Method We conducted a cross‐sectional analysis in the PolyvasculaR Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and vaScular Events (PRECISE) study among Chinese community‐dwelling elderly adults. Participants underwent lifestyle assessments and brain 3T MRI scanning between 2017‐2019. A healthy lifestyle score (0‐5) was constructed based on five modifiable lifestyle factors: diversified diet, physically active, non‐smoking, non‐alcohol‐drinking, and healthy body weight. Validated multimodal neuroimaging markers (across tissue volume, cortical thickness, and white matter micro‐structure, etc) were derived from MRI. Multivariable‐adjusted linear and logistic regression models were used to examine the associations. Result A total of 2370 participants (mean age 61.3 years; 53.9% female) was included in the final analysis. Compared to participants with lower healthy lifestyle score (0‐1), those with a higher lifestyle score had larger gray matter volume (GMV; β score 2‐3 = 0.34; β score 4‐5 = 0.31; p‐trend = 0.02) and lower odds of white matter hyperintensity (WMH; Odds Ratio [OR] score 2‐3 = 0.71, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] : 0.50, 1.02; OR score 4‐5 = 0.56, 95%CI: 0.35, 0.90; p‐trend = 0.003) and lacune (OR score 2‐3 = 0.62, 95%CI: 0.36, 1.06; OR score 4‐5 = 0.42, 95%CI: 0.18, 0.98; p‐trend = 0.02). In particular, diversified diet was associated with a significant lower risk of WMH and healthy body weight was associated with a variety of brain structure measures. Similar associations were observed across major subgroup variables. Conclusion Adherence to a healthier lifestyle was associated with a lower degree of neurodegeneration‐related brain structural markers in middle‐aged and older adults. Further large‐scale and longitudinal studies are warranted to confirm the study findings.
