    Kurzfassung: Patients with acute stroke are often accompanied by comorbidities, such as active cancer. However, adequate treatment guidelines are not available for these patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between cancer and the outcomes of reperfusion therapy in patients with stroke. Methods: We compared treatment outcomes in patients who underwent reperfusion therapy, using a nationwide reperfusion therapy registry. We divided the patients into 3 groups according to cancer activity: active cancer, nonactive cancer, and without a history of cancer. We investigated reperfusion processes, 24-hour neurological improvement, adverse events, 3-month functional outcome, and 6-month survival and related factors after reperfusion therapy. Results: Among 1338 patients who underwent reperfusion therapy, 62 patients (4.6%) had active cancer, 78 patients (5.8%) had nonactive cancer, and 1198 patients (89.5%) had no history of cancer. Of the enrolled patients, 969 patients received intravenous thrombolysis and 685 patients underwent endovascular treatment (316 patients received combined therapy). Patients with active cancer had more comorbidities and experienced more severe strokes; however, they showed similar 24-hour neurological improvement and adverse events, including cerebral hemorrhage, compared with the other groups. Although the functional outcome at 3 months was poorer than the other groups, 36.4% of patients with active cancer showed functional independence. Additionally, 52.9% of the patients with determined stroke etiology showed functional independence despite active cancer. During the 6-month follow-up, 46.6% of patients with active cancer died, and active cancer was independently associated with poor survival (hazard ratio, 3.973 [95% CI, 2.528–6.245]). Conclusions: In patients with active cancer, reperfusion therapy showed similar adverse events and short-term outcomes to that of other groups. While long-term prognosis was worse in the active cancer group than the nonactive cancer groups, not negligible number of patients had good functional outcomes, especially those with determined stroke mechanisms.

    Kurzfassung: d ‐Dimer level is a marker of hypercoagulability, which is associated with thrombus formation and resolution. We investigated the value of d ‐dimer levels in predicting outcomes of acute ischemic stroke in patients who underwent endovascular treatment (EVT). Methods We analyzed data of patients who underwent only EVT from the SECRET (Selection Criteria in Endovascular Thrombectomy and Thrombolytic Therapy) registry. d ‐Dimer levels were routinely measured in 10 of 15 participating hospitals. Patients were grouped into tertiles (tertile 1, tertile 2, and tertile 3) according to d ‐dimer levels (lowest, moderate, and highest, respectively). We compared serial scores on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale at baseline, on day 1 of hospitalization, and at discharge; functional outcome 3 months after EVT; and rate of mortality within 6 months after EVT. Results In the 170 patients, the median d ‐dimer level was 477 ng/mL (interquartile range, 249–988 ng/mL). In tertile 3, the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was higher at discharge than on day 1 of hospitalization. Poor outcome 3 months after EVT (modified Rankin Scale score, ≥3) was more common with high d ‐dimer levels (26.3% of tertile 1, 57.1% of tertile 2, and 76.4% of tertile 3; P 〈 0.001). Multivariable analysis showed that a high d ‐dimer level was independently associated with poor outcome 3 months after EVT (odds ratio [OR], 4.399 [95% CI, 1.594–12.135] ). Kaplan–Meier survival analysis showed that a high d ‐dimer level was independently associated with death within 6 months after EVT (OR, 5.441 [95% CI, 1.560–18.978]; log‐rank test, P 〈 0.001). The d ‐dimer effect showed no heterogeneity across the subgroups for poor outcome 3 months after EVT or death within 6 months after EVT. The direction of effect was unfavorable for tertile 3 across all demographic strata. Conclusions High plasma d ‐dimer levels were predictive of early neurologic worsening, poor functional outcome 3 months after EVT, and death within 6 months after EVT.

    Kurzfassung: A high and low estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) could affect outcomes after reperfusion therapy for ischemic stroke. This study aimed to determine whether renal function based on eGFR affects mortality risk in patients with ischemic stroke within 6 months following reperfusion therapy. Methods: This prospective registry–based cohort study included 2266 patients who received reperfusion therapy between January 2000 and September 2019 and were registered in the SECRET (Selection Criteria in Endovascular Thrombectomy and Thrombolytic Therapy) study or the Yonsei Stroke Cohort. A high and low eGFR were based on the Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation and defined, respectively, as the 5th and 95th percentiles of age- and sex-specific eGFR. Occurrence of death within 6 months was compared among the groups according to their eGFR such as low, normal, or high eGFR. Results: Of the 2266 patients, 2051 (90.5%) had a normal eGFR, 110 (4.9%) a low eGFR, and 105 (4.6%) a high eGFR. Patients with high eGFR were younger or less likely to have hypertension, diabetes, or atrial fibrillation than the other groups. Active cancer was more prevalent in the high-eGFR group. During the 6-month follow-up, there were 24 deaths (22.9%) in the high-eGFR group, 37 (33.6%) in the low-eGFR group, and 237 (11.6%) in the normal-eGFR group. After adjusting for variables with P 〈 0.10 in the univariable analysis, 6-month mortality was independently associated with high eGFR (hazard ratio, 2.22 [95% CI, 1.36–3.62]; P =0.001) and low eGFR (HR, 2.29 [95% CI, 1.41–3.72]; P =0.001). These associations persisted regardless of treatment modality or various baseline characteristics. Conclusions: High eGFR as well as low eGFR were independently associated with 6-month mortality after reperfusion therapy. Kidney function could be considered a prognostic factor in patients with ischemic stroke after reperfusion therapy.

    Kurzfassung: Background and purpose: In this study, we investigated the stroke severity was associated with the prior antithrombotic medication including novel Vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOACs) in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF). Methods: We included 801 consecutive acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack patients with NVAF who were admitted to 6 hospitals between August 2013 and January 2017 in the present study. Stroke severity was assessed using the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Prior antithrombotics before index stroke were categorized into 5 groups: no antithrombotics, only antiplatelet, warfarin with international normalized ratio (INR) 〈 2, warfarin with INR ≥2, and NOACs. We investigated whether there were differences in initial stroke severity according to the prior antithrombotics in stroke patients with NVAF. Results: A total of 801 acute ischemic stroke or transient ischemic stroke patients with NVAF were enrolled. Among the 801 patients, the 34 (4.2%) had been treated with warfarin with INR ≥2, 146 (18.2%) with warfarin with INR ≥2, 70 (8.7%) with NOACs, 347 (43.3%) with only antiplatelet, and 204 (25.5%) without any antithrombotics. The median NIHSS score was 5 (IQR 1-14). Compared with the no antithrombotics group (9.5, IQR 2-16), the NIHSS was lower in the warfarin with INR ≥2 (4, 1-7.3) and the only antiplatelet group (4, IQR 1-12), while the warfarin with INR 〈 2 (6, IQR 2-14) or the NOACs group (4, IQR 1-15) had similar stroke severity. Multivariate analysis adjusting the CHA2DS2-VASc score showed stroke severity was milder in patients with warfarin with INR ≥2 (b -4.680, SE 1.399, p=0.001), those with antiplatelet only (b -2.528, SE 0.667, p 〈 0.001), or those with NOACs (b -2.290, SE 1.049, p=0.029), compared with those without any antithrombotics. Conclusions: Our data indicate that the prior anticoagulation was related with milder initial stroke severity in patients with NVAF.
