    Abstract: In patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with reperfusion therapy we aimed to evaluate whether pretreatment blood–brain barrier (BBB) leakage is associated with subsequent hemorrhagic transformation (HT). Methods We prospectively screened patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis and/or endovascular treatment. Before treatment, each patient received computed tomography (CT), CT angiography, and CT perfusion. We assessed pretreatment BBB leakage within the ischemic area using the volume transfer constant (K trans ) value. Our primary outcome was relevant HT, defined as hemorrhagic infarction type 2 or parenchymal hemorrhage type 1 or 2. We evaluated independent associations between BBB leakage and HT using logistic regression, adjusting for age, sex, baseline stroke severity, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score (ASPECTS) ≥ 6, treatment type, and onset‐to‐treatment time. Results We enrolled 171 patients with available assessment of BBB leakage. The patients' mean (±SD) age was 75.5 (±11.8) years, 86 (50%) were men, and the median (interquartile range) National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 18 (12–23). A total of 32 patients (18%) received intravenous thrombolysis, 102 (60%) underwent direct endovascular treatment, and 37 (22%) underwent both. Patients with relevant HT ( N  = 31;18%) had greater mean BBB leakage (K trans 0.77 vs. 0.60; p  = 0.027). After adjustment in the logistic regression model, we found that BBB leakage was associated both with a more than twofold risk of relevant HT (odds ratio [OR] 2.50; 95% confidence interval [CI]  1.03–6.03 per K trans point increase; OR 2.34; 95% CI 1.06–5.17 for K trans values  〉  0.63 [mean BBB leakage value]) and with symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (OR 4.30; 95% CI 1.13–13.77 per K trans point increase). Conclusion Pretreatment BBB leakage before reperfusion therapy was associated with HT, and may help to identify patients at risk of HT.

    Abstract: Sex-related differences exist in many aspects of acute stroke and were mainly investigated in the early time window with conflicting results. However, data regarding sex disparities in late presenters are scarce. Therefore, we sought to investigate differences in outcomes between women and men treated with endovascular treatment in the late time window. Methods: Analyses were based on the SOLSTICE Consortium (Selection of Late-Window Stroke for Thrombectomy by Imaging Collateral Extent), which was an individual-patient level analysis of seven trials and registries. Baseline characteristics, 90-day functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score ≤2), mortality, and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage were compared between women and men. Effect of sex on the association of age and successful reperfusion (final Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2b–3) with outcomes was assessed using multivariable logistic regression adjusted for age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, time from onset to puncture, occlusion location, intravenous thrombolysis, and successful reperfusion, with interaction terms. Results: Among 608 patients treated with endovascular treatment, 50.5% were women. Women were older than men (median age of 72 versus 68 years, P =0.02) and had a lower prevalence of tandem occlusions (14.0% versus 22.9%, P =0.005). Workflow times were similar between sexes. Adjusted outcomes did not differ between women and men. Functional independence at 90 days was achieved by 127 out of 292 women (43.5%) and 135 out of 291 men (46.4%). Mortality at 90 days (54 [18.5%] versus 48 [16.5%] ) and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (37 [13.3%] versus 33 [11.6%] ) were similar between women and men. There was no sex-by-age interaction on functional outcomes. However, men had higher likelihood of mortality ( P interaction =0.003) and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage ( P interaction =0.017) with advancing age. Sex did not influence the relation between successful reperfusion and outcomes. Conclusions: In this multicenter analysis of late patients treated with endovascular treatment, sex was not associated with functional outcome. However, sex influenced the association between age and safety outcomes, with men experiencing worse outcomes with advancing age.

    Abstract: Collateral assessment using CT angiography is a promising modality for selecting patients for endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in the late window (6–24 hours). The outcome of these patients compared with those selected using perfusion imaging is not clear. Methods We pooled data from seven trials and registries of EVT-treated patients in the late-time window. Patients were classified according to the baseline imaging into collateral imaging alone (collateral cohort) and perfusion plus collateral imaging (perfusion cohort). The primary outcome was the proportion of patients achieving independent 90-day functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale ‘mRS’ 0–2). We used the propensity score–weighting method to balance important predictors between the cohorts. Results In 608 patients, the median onset/last-known-well to emergency arrival time was 8.8 hours and 53.2% had wake-up strokes. Both cohorts had collateral imaging and 379 (62.3%) had perfusion imaging. Independent functional outcome was achieved in 43.1% overall: 168/379 patients (45.5%) in the perfusion cohort versus 94/214 (43.9%) in the collateral cohort (p=0.71). A logistic regression model adjusting for inverse-probability-weighting showed no difference in 90-day mRS score of 0–2 among the perfusion versus collateral cohorts (adjusted OR 1.05, 95% CI 0.69 to 1.59, p=0.83) or in a favourable shift in 90-day mRS (common adjusted OR 1.01, 95% CI 0.69 to 1.47, p=0.97). Conclusion This pooled analysis of late window EVT showed comparable functional outcomes in patients selected for EVT using collateral imaging alone compared with patients selected using perfusion and collateral imaging. PROSPERO registration number CRD42020222003.

    Abstract: Treatments aiming at reperfusion of the acutely ischaemic brain tissue may result futile or even detrimental because of the so-called reperfusion injury. The processes contributing to reperfusion injury involve a number of factors, ranging from blood–brain barrier (BBB) disruption to circulating biomarkers. Our aim is to evaluate the relative effect of imaging and circulating biomarkers in relation to reperfusion injury. Methods and analysis Observational hospital-based study that will include 140 patients who had ischaemic stroke, treated with systemic thrombolysis, endovascular treatment or both. BBB disruption will be assessed with CT perfusion (CTP) before treatment, and levels of a large panel of biomarkers will be measured before intervention and after 24 hours. Relevant outcomes will include: (1) reperfusion injury, defined as radiologically relevant haemorrhagic transformation at 24 hours and (2) clinical status 3 months after the index stroke. We will investigate the separate and combined effect of pretreatment BBB disruption and circulating biomarkers on reperfusion injury and clinical status at 3 months. Study protocol is registered at http://www.clinicaltrials.gov (ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03041753 ). Ethics and dissemination The study protocol has been approved by ethics committee of the Azienda Ospedaliero Universitaria Careggi (Università degli Studi di Firenze). Informed consent is obtained by each patient at time of enrolment or deferred when the participant lacks the capacity to provide consent during the acute phase. Researchers interested in testing hypotheses with the data are encouraged to contact the corresponding author. Results from the study will be disseminated at national and international conferences and in medical thesis. Trial registration number NCT03041753 .

    Abstract: Background: Efficient healthcare workflow leads to faster reperfusion and better functional outcomes of stroke in the early-time window. We investigated the impact of care delays on the outcomes of stroke patients treated with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) in the late window. Methods: Pooled data from seven randomized clinical trials and registries that only included patients who underwent EVT in the late time window (onset/last known well (LKW) time to imaging time of 6 hours or more) were combined for this analysis. The time intervals from stroke onset to successful reperfusion were analyzed. Logistic regression was used to estimate the likelihood of a functionally independent outcome at 90 days (modified Rankin scale 0-2) for each time interval while adjusting for relevant patients’ characteristics. Negative binomial regression was used to evaluate the relationship between each time interval and the predictors. Results: 584 patients were included in this analysis. The median age was 70 years (IQR: 21), 293 [50.17%] were females, 298 (53.31%) had wake-up strokes, and the median ASPECTS was 8 (IQR: 2). All patients had CT, and CTA imaging, and 360 (61.64%) underwent perfusion imaging. Successful reperfusion was achieved in 469 (80.45%) patients, and 249 (44.54%) had independent outcomes at 90 days. For every 30 minutes delay, the estimated probability of functional independence decreased by 19% for the emergency department (ED) arrival to imaging time interval, by 25% from groin puncture to end of EVT, and by 12% from ED arrival to end of EVT. Older age and higher NIHSS were associated with longer time from imaging to groin puncture. However, only age was associated with a longer estimated times from stroke onset/LKW to arrival in ED and from stroke onset/LKW to the end of EVT. Conclusion: Faster in-hospital care is associated with improved functional independence among late-window patients. Page 1

However, data regarding sex disparities in late presenters are scarce. Therefore, we sought to investigate differences in outcomes between women and men treated with endovascular treatment (EVT) in the late time window. Methods: Analyses were based on the Selection Of Late-window Stroke for Thrombectomy by Imaging Collateral Extent Consortium, which was an individual-patient level analysis of seven trials and registries. Baseline characteristics, functional independence (modified Rankin Scale ≤ 2), mortality, and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) were compared between women and men. Effect of sex on the association between age, successful reperfusion (Thrombolysis in cerebral infarction 2b-3) and outcomes was assessed using multivariable logistic regression with interaction terms. Results: Among 608 patients treated with EVT, 50.5% were women. Women were older than men by median 4 years and had a lower prevalence of tandem occlusions (14.0% vs. 22.9%). In the subset of patients with available perfusion volumes (n= 195), women had smaller penumbra (median IQR:97 mL [60- 130] vs. 109 mL [73-189] ; p= 0.008), and mismatch volumes, (79 mL [49-101] vs. 91 mL [57-158] ; p= 0.02). Pre and intrahospital times were similar between sexes. Outcomes did not differ between women and men, and there was no sex-by-age interaction on functional independence. However, men had higher likelihood of mortality (p interaction = 0.004) and sICH (p interaction = 0.016) with advancing age. Sex did not influence the relation between successful reperfusion and outcomes. Conclusions: In this multicenter analysis of late presenters treated with EVT, sex was not associated with clinical outcomes. However, sex influenced the association between age and safety outcomes with men experiencing worse outcomes with advancing age.
