    Abstract: The aim was to evaluate, in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and acute ischemic stroke, the association of prior anticoagulation with vitamin K antagonists (VKAs) or direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) with stroke severity, utilization of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), safety of IVT, and 3‐month outcomes. Methods This was a cohort study of consecutive patients (2014–2019) on anticoagulation versus those without (controls) with regard to stroke severity, rates of IVT/mechanical thrombectomy, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH), and favorable outcome (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2) at 3 months. Results Of 8,179 patients (mean [SD] age, 79.8 [9.6] years; 49% women), 1,486 (18%) were on VKA treatment, 1,634 (20%) on DOAC treatment at stroke onset, and 5,059 controls. Stroke severity was lower in patients on DOACs (median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale 4, [interquartile range 2–11]) compared with VKA (6, [2–14] ) and controls (7, [3–15], p   〈  0.001; quantile regression: β −2.1, 95% confidence interval [CI] −2.6 to −1.7). The IVT rate in potentially eligible patients was significantly lower in patients on VKA (156 of 247 [63%] ; adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.67; 95% CI 0.50–0.90) and particularly in patients on DOACs (69 of 464 [15%] ; aOR 0.06; 95% CI 0.05–0.08) compared with controls (1,544 of 2,504 [74%]). sICH after IVT occurred in 3.6% (2.6–4.7%) of controls, 9 of 195 (4.6%; 1.9–9.2%; aOR 0.93; 95% CI 0.46–1.90) patients on VKA and 2 of 65 (3.1%; 0.4–10.8%, aOR 0.56; 95% CI 0.28–1.12) of those on DOACs. After adjustments for prognostic confounders, DOAC pretreatment was associated with a favorable 3‐month outcome (aOR 1.24; 1.01–1.51). Interpretation Prior DOAC therapy in patients with AF was associated with decreased admission stroke severity at onset and a remarkably low rate of IVT. Overall, patients on DOAC might have better functional outcome at 3 months. Further research is needed to overcome potential restrictions for IVT in patients taking DOACs. ANN NEUROL 2021;89:42–53

    Abstract: To examine rates of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT), mechanical thrombectomy (MT), door‐to‐needle (DTN) time, door‐to‐puncture (DTP) time, and functional outcome between patients with admission magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) versus computed tomography (CT). Methods An observational cohort study of consecutive patients using a target trial design within the nationwide Swiss‐Stroke‐Registry from January 2014 to August 2020 was carried out. Exclusion criteria included MRI contraindications, transferred patients, and unstable or frail patients. Multilevel mixed‐effects logistic regression with multiple imputation was used to calculate adjusted odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals for IVT, MT, DTN, DTP, and good functional outcome (mRS 0–2) at 90 days. Results Of the 11,049 patients included (mean [SD] age, 71 [15] years; 4,811 [44%] women; 69% ischemic stroke, 16% transient ischemic attack, 8% stroke mimics, 6% intracranial hemorrhage), 3,741 (34%) received MRI and 7,308 (66%) CT. Patients undergoing MRI had lower National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (median [interquartile range] 2 [0–6] vs 4 [1–11] ), and presented later after symptom onset (150 vs 123 min, p   〈  0.001). Admission MRI was associated with: lower adjusted odds of IVT (aOR 0.83, 0.73–0.96), but not with MT (aOR 1.11, 0.93–1.34); longer adjusted DTN (+22 min [13–30]), but not with longer DTP times; and higher adjusted odds of favorable outcome (aOR 1.54, 1.30–1.81). Interpretation We found an association of MRI with lower rates of IVT and a significant delay in DTN, but not in DTP and rates of MT. Given the delays in workflow metrics, prospective trials are required to show that tissue‐based benefits of baseline MRI compensate for the temporal benefits of CT. ANN NEUROL 2022;92:184–194

    Abstract: We aimed to assess the association of diabetes mellitus (DM) and admission hyperglycaemia (AH), respectively, and outcome in patients with acute ischaemic stroke with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation treated with endovascular therapy (EVT) in daily clinical practice. Methods Consecutive EVT patients admitted to our stroke centre between February 2015 and April 2020 were included in this observational cohort study. Patients with versus without DM and with versus without AH (glucose ≥ 7.8 mmol/L) were compared. Results We included 1020 patients (48.9% women, median age = 73.1 years); 282 (27.6%) had DM, and 226 (22.2%) had AH. Patients with versus without DM less often showed successful reperfusion (odds ratio [OR] adjusted  = 0.61, p  = 0.023) and worse 3‐month functional outcome (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] = 0–2: 31.3% vs. 48%, OR adjusted  = 0.59, p  = 0.004; death: 38.9% vs. 24.1%, OR adjusted  = 1.75, p  = 0.002; mRS shift: p adjusted   〈  0.0001; if moderate/good collaterals and mismatch, mRS = 0–2: OR adjusted  = 0.52, p  = 0.005; death: OR adjusted  = 1.95, p  = 0.005). If analysis was additionally adjusted for AH, only mRS shift was still significantly worse in patients with DM ( p adjusted  = 0.012). Patients with versus without AH showed similar successful reperfusion rates and worse 3‐month functional outcome (mRS = 0–2: 28.3% vs. 50.4%, OR adjusted  = 0.52, p   〈  0.0001; death: 40.4% vs. 22.4%, OR adjusted  = 1.80, p  = 0.001; mRS shift: p adjusted   〈  0.0001; if moderate/good collaterals and mismatch, mRS = 0–2: OR adjusted  = 0.38, p   〈  0.0001; death: OR adjusted  = 2.39, p   〈  0.0001). If analysis was additionally adjusted for DM, 3‐month functional outcome remained significantly worse in patients with AH (mRS = 0–2: OR adjusted  = 0.58, p  = 0.004; death: OR adjusted  = 1.57, p  = 0.014; mRS shift: p adjusted  = 0.004). DM independently predicted recurrent/progressive in‐hospital ischaemic stroke (OR = 1.71, p  = 0.043) together with admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (OR = 0.95, p  = 0.005), and AH independently predicted in‐hospital symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage (OR = 2.21, p  = 0.001). The association of admission continuous glucose levels and most outcome variables was (inversely) J‐shaped. Conclusions Hyperglycaemia more than DM was associated with worse 3‐month outcome in the patients studied, more likely so in the case of moderate/good collaterals and mismatch in admission imaging.

    Abstract: The value of intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in eligible tandem lesion patients undergoing endovascular treatment (EVT) is unknown. We investigated treatment effect heterogeneity of EVT + IVT versus EVT‐only in tandem lesion patients. Additional analyses were performed for patients undergoing emergent internal carotid artery (ICA) stenting. Methods SWIFT DIRECT randomized IVT‐eligible patients to either EVT + IVT or EVT‐only. Primary outcome was 90‐day functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2) after the index event. Secondary endpoints were reperfusion success, 24 h intracranial hemorrhage rate, and 90‐day all‐cause mortality. Interaction models were fitted for all predefined outcomes. Results Among 408 included patients, 63 (15.4%) had a tandem lesion and 33 (52.4%) received IVT. In patients with tandem lesions, 20 had undergone emergent ICA stenting (EVT + IVT: 9/33, 27.3%; EVT: 11/30, 36.7%). Tandem lesion did not show treatment effect modification of IVT on rates of functional independence (tandem lesion EVT + IVT vs. EVT: 63.6% vs. 46.7%, non‐tandem lesion EVT + IVT vs. EVT: 65.6% vs. 58.2%; p for interaction = 0.77). IVT also did not increase the risk of intracranial hemorrhage  among tandem lesion patients (tandem lesion EVT + IVT vs. EVT: 34.4% vs. 46.7%, non‐tandem lesion EVT + IVT vs. EVT: 33.5% vs. 26.3%; p for interaction = 0.15). No heterogeneity was noted for other endpoints ( p for interaction 〉 0.05). Conclusions No treatment effect heterogeneity of EVT + IVT versus EVT‐only was observed among tandem lesion patients. Administering IVT in patients with anticipated emergent ICA stenting seems safe, and the latter should not be a factor to consider when deciding to administer IVT before EVT.
