    Abstract: Although statins are effective in secondary prevention of ischemic stroke, they are also associated with an increase risk of intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) in certain conditions. In the TST trial (Treat Stroke to Target), we prespecified an exploration of the predictors of incident ICH. Methods: Patients with ischemic stroke in the previous 3 months or transient ischemic attack within the previous 15 days and evidence of cerebrovascular or coronary artery atherosclerosis were randomly assigned in a 1:1 ratio to a target LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL or 100±10 mg/dL, using statin or ezetimibe. Results: Among 2860 patients enrolled, 31 incident ICH occurred over a median follow-up of 3 years (18 and 13 in the lower and higher target group, 3.21/1000 patient-years [95% CI, 2.38–4.04] and 2.32/1000 patient-years [95% CI, 1.61–3.03] , respectively). While there were no baseline predictors of ICH, uncontrolled hypertension (HR, 2.51 [95% CI, 1.01–6.31], P =0.041) and being on anticoagulant (HR, 2.36 [95% CI, 1.00–5.62], P =0.047)] during the trial were significant predictors. On-treatment low LDL cholesterol was not a predictor of ICH. Conclusions: Targeting an LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL compared with 100±10 mg/dL in patients with atherosclerotic ischemic stroke nonsignificantly increased the risk of ICH. Incident ICHs were not associated with low LDL cholesterol. Uncontrolled hypertension and anticoagulant therapy were associated with ICH which has important clinical implications.

    Benefit of Targeting a LDL (Low-Density Lipoprotein) Cholesterol 〈70 mg/dL During 5 Years After Ischemic Stroke
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2020
    In:  Stroke Vol. 51, No. 4 ( 2020-04), p. 1231-1239

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 51, No. 4 ( 2020-04), p. 1231-1239
    Abstract: The TST trial (Treat Stroke to Target) evaluated the benefit of targeting a LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL to reduce the risk of cardiovascular events in 2860 patients with ischemic stroke with atherosclerotic stenosis of cerebral vasculature or aortic arch plaque 〉 4 mm, in a French and Korean population. The follow-up lasted a median of 5.3 years in French patients (similar to the median follow-up time in the SPARCL trial [Stroke Prevention by Aggressive Reduction in Cholesterol Level]) and 2.0 years in Korean patients. Exposure duration to statin is a well-known driver for cardiovascular risk reduction. We report here the TST results in the French cohort. Methods— One thousand seventy-three French patients were assigned to 〈 70 mg/dL (1.8 mmol/L) and 1075 to 100±10 mg/dL (90–110 mg/dL, 2.3–2.8 mmol/L). To achieve these goals, investigators used the statin and dosage of their choice and added ezetimibe on top if needed. The primary outcome was the composite of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, new symptoms requiring urgent coronary or carotid revascularization and vascular death. Results— After a median follow-up of 5.3 years, the achieved LDL cholesterol was 66 (1.69 mmol/L) and 96 mg/dL (2.46 mmol/L) on average, respectively. The primary end point occurred in 9.6% and 12.9% of patients, respectively (HR, 0.74 [95% CI, 0.57–0.94]; P =0.019). Cerebral infarction or urgent carotid revascularization following transient ischemic attack was reduced by 27% ( P =0.046). Cerebral infarction or intracranial hemorrhage was reduced by 28% ( P =0.023). The primary outcome or intracranial hemorrhage was reduced by 25% ( P =0.021). Intracranial hemorrhages occurred in 13 and 11 patients, respectively (HR, 1.17 [95% CI, 0.53–2.62]; P =0.70). Conclusions— After an ischemic stroke of documented atherosclerotic origin, targeting a LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL during 5.3 years avoided 1 subsequent major vascular event in 4 (number needed to treat of 30) and no increase in intracranial hemorrhage.

    More Than 50 Percent Reduction in LDL Cholesterol in Patients With Target LDL 〈70 mg/dL After a Stroke
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2023

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 54, No. 8 ( 2023-08), p. 1993-2001
    Abstract: Whether a strategy to target an LDL (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol 〈 70 mg/dL is more effective when LDL is reduced 〉 50% from baseline rather than 〈 50% from baseline has not been investigated. METHODS: The Treat Stroke to Target trial was conducted in France and South Korea in 61 sites between March 2010 and December 2018. Patients with ischemic stroke in the previous 3 months or transient ischemic attack within the previous 15 days and evidence of cerebrovascular or coronary artery atherosclerosis were randomly assigned to a target LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL or 100±10 mg/dL, using statin and/or ezetimibe as needed. We used the results of repeated LDL measurements (median, 5 [2–6] per patient) during 3.9 years (interquartile range, 2.1–6.8) of follow-up. The primary outcome was the composite of ischemic stroke, myocardial infarction, new symptoms requiring urgent coronary or carotid revascularization, and vascular death. Cox regression model including lipid-lowering therapy as a time-varying variable, after adjustment for randomization strategy, age, sex, index event (stroke or transient ischemic attack), and time since the index event. RESULTS: Among 2860 patients enrolled, patients in the lower target group who had 〉 50% LDL cholesterol reduction from baseline during the trial had a higher baseline LDL cholesterol and a lower LDL cholesterol achieved as compared to patients who had 〈 50% LDL cholesterol reduction (155±32 and 62 mg/dL versus 121±34 and 74 mg/dL, respectively, P 〈 0.001 for both). In the 〈 70 mg/dL target group, patients with 〉 50% LDL reduction had a significant reduction in the primary outcome as compared to the higher target group (hazard ratio, 0.61 [95% CI, 0.43–0.88]; P =0.007) and patients with 〈 50% LDL reduction from baseline had little reduction (hazard ratio, 0.96 [95% CI, 0.73–1.26]; P =0.75). CONCLUSIONS: In this post hoc analysis of the TST trial, targeting an LDL cholesterol of 〈 70 mg/dL reduced the risk of primary outcome compared with 100±10 mg/dL provided LDL cholesterol reduction from baseline was superior to 50%, thereby suggesting that the magnitude of LDL cholesterol reduction was as important to consider as the target level to achieve.

    Abstract WP98: Utilization Of Perfusion Imaging For Acute Ischemic Stroke: Secular Trends And Effects On Outcomes Of Endovascular Treatment
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2023

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 54, No. Suppl_1 ( 2023-02)
    Abstract: Introduction: Perfusion imaging (PI) could guide decision-making for endovascular treatment (EVT) of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, PI was underused even in the US before the pivotal EVT trials proved its usefulness in 2018. This study aimed to describe the secular trends of PI utilization and investigate the effectiveness of PI-based EVT in real-world practice. Methods: Using a prospective multicenter (n=17) stroke registry in South Korea, we identified patients with AIS who presented within 24 hours from onset between 2011 and 2021. The study period was divided into 3 epochs: 2011-2014, 2015-2017, and 2018-2021. The study population was divided into the early (arrival within 6 hours) and late window (6-24 hours) groups. Results: A total of 51,650 patients (15,654 patients in 2011-2014, 14,432 patients in 2015-2017, and 21,564 patients in 2018-2021) were analyzed. Utilization of PI decreased in the overall population and early window group ( P trend 〈 0.001); 43.3% and 54.1% in 2011-2014, 40.1% and 44.1% in 2015-2017, and 38.4% and 40.2% in 2018-2021, respectively; but increased in the late window group ( P trend 〈 0.001); 31.3% in 2011-2014, 35.7% in 2015-2017, and 36.5% in 2018-2021. Of 10,872 patients with anterior large-vessel occlusion (aLVO), the EVT rate was not different between patients with and without PI (48.7% vs. 46.6%, P =0.08) in the early window but higher in those with PI than without PI in the late window (29.8% vs. 18.7%, P 〈 0.001). The EVT outcome (3-month mRS 0-2) was not different between patients with and without PI in the early window (44.1% vs. 41.8%, P =0.21) and late window (38.4% vs. 39.2%, P =0.81). Propensity score analysis and instrumental variable analysis with PI rate per center as an instrument will be performed to adjust imbalances between patients with and without PI. Conclusion: Between 2011 and 2021 in South Korea, PI utilization has decreased in patients arriving within 6 hours from onset but has increased in those arriving between 6 and 24 hours. Among patients with aLVO, PI likely increased the EVT rate in the late window but did not in the early window. PI utilization did not seem to affect the EVT outcomes, but in-depth analysis is required.

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 50, No. 2 ( 2019-02), p. 365-372
    Abstract: Randomized trials comparing the use of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to multimodal computed tomography (CT)/ CT angiography (CTA) for selecting candidates for endovascular therapy (EVT) have not been reported. This study aimed to elucidate whether MRI-based selection for EVT is safe and effective within and after a 6-hour time window compared with conventional CTA-based selection. Methods— Data from a prospective, nationwide, multicenter stroke registry were analyzed. Workflow timelines were compared between patients selected for EVT based on MRI (the MRI group) and CTA (the CTA group). Multivariable ordinal and binary logistic regression analyses were performed to explore the relationships between decision imaging for EVT and clinical outcomes, including good and excellent outcomes (modified Rankin Scale scores of 0–2 and 0–1, respectively) at 3-month, modified Rankin Scale score distributions and safety outcomes (symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage [SICH] and mortality). Results— Ultimately, 1265 patients (age, 69±12 yrs; men, 55%) were enrolled in this study. The median National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 15 (11–19). All workflow time metrics were significantly delayed in the MRI group compared with the CTA group. There was no difference in good 3-month outcomes in patients arriving within 6 hours of onset between the MRI and CTA groups (38.1% versus 38.5%), but SICH and mortality rates were lower in the MRI group than the CTA group (3.8% versus 7.7%, P =0.01 for SICH; 15.4% versus 20.9%, P =0.04 for mortality). In the multivariable analysis, decision imaging was not significantly associated with 3-month functional outcomes (all P 〉 0.1) or mortality ( P =0.051); however, the MRI group was less likely to develop SICH than the CTA group ( P =0.01; odds ratio, 0.34 [95% CI, 0.17–0.77]). Conclusions— Our study found MRI-based selection for EVT was not associated with improving functional outcome compared with CT-based selection, but may be better at reducing the risk of SICH, despite the delays in all workflow time metrics.

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 49, No. 8 ( 2018-08), p. 1836-1842
    Abstract: Blood pressure dynamics in patients with acute ischemic stroke may serve as an important modifiable and prognostic factor. Methods— A total of 8376 patients with acute ischemic stroke were studied from a prospective multicenter registry. Patients were eligible if they had been admitted within 24 hours of symptom onset and had ≥5 systolic blood pressure (SBP) measurements during the first 24 hours of hospitalization. SBP trajectory groups in the first 24 hours were identified using the TRAJ procedure in SAS software with delta-Bayesian Information Criterion and prespecified modeling parameters. Vascular events, including recurrent stroke, myocardial infarction, and death, were prospectively collected. The risk of having vascular events was calculated using the frailty model to adjust for clustering by hospital. Results— The group-based trajectory model classified patients with acute ischemic stroke into 5 SBP trajectory groups: low (22.3%), moderate (40.8%), rapidly stabilized (11.9%), acutely elevated (18.5%), and persistently high (6.4%) SBP. The risk of having vascular events was increased in the acutely elevated (hazard ratio, 1.28 [95% confidence interval, 1.12–1.47]) and the persistently high SBP groups (hazard ratio, 1.67 [95% confidence interval, 1.37–2.04] ) but not in the rapidly stabilized group (hazard ratio, 1.13 [95% confidence interval, 0.95–1.34]), when compared with the moderate SBP group. Conclusions— SBP during the first 24 hours after acute ischemic stroke may be categorized into distinct trajectory groups, which differ in relation to stroke characteristics and frequency of subsequent recurrent vascular event risks. The findings may help to recognize potential candidates for future blood pressure control trials.

    Abstract: Patients with minor ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack are at high risk of recurrent stroke and vascular events, which are potentially disabling or fatal. This study aimed to evaluate contemporary subsequent vascular event risk after minor ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack in Korea. Methods— Patients with minor ischemic stroke or high-risk transient ischemic attack admitted within 7 days of symptom onset were identified from a Korean multicenter stroke registry database. We estimated 3-month and 1-year event rates of the primary outcome (composite of stroke recurrence, myocardial infarction, or all-cause death), stroke recurrence, a major vascular event (composite of stroke recurrence, myocardial infarction, or vascular death), and all-cause death and explored differences in clinical characteristics and event rates according to antithrombotic strategies at discharge. Results— Of 9506 patients enrolled in this study, 93.8% underwent angiographic assessment and 72.7% underwent cardiac evaluations; 25.1% had symptomatic stenosis or occlusion of intracranial arteries. At discharge, 95.2% of patients received antithrombotics (antiplatelet polytherapy, 37.1%; anticoagulation, 15.3%) and 86.2% received statins. The 3-month cumulative event rate was 5.9% for the primary outcome, 4.3% for stroke recurrence, 4.6% for a major vascular event, and 2.0% for all-cause death. Corresponding values at 1 year were 9.3%, 6.1%, 6.7%, and 4.1%, respectively. Patients receiving nonaspirin antithrombotic strategies or no antithrombotic agent had higher baseline risk profiles and at least 1.5× higher event rates for clinical event outcomes than those with aspirin monotherapy. Conclusions— Contemporary secondary stroke prevention strategies based on thorough diagnostic evaluation may contribute to the low subsequent vascular event rates observed in real-world clinical practice in Korea.

    Abstract: Introduction: Predicting outcomes of acute stroke patients initially presenting with mild neurologic deficits is important in making decision for thrombolytic therapy. Previous researches with a small sample size have failed to find specific items of NIH Stroke Scale or clinical syndromes to be predictive of functional outcome. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that certain items of the NIH Stroke Scale or their combinations would be independently associated with unfavorable functional outcome after mild stroke Methods: Using a multicenter stroke registry database, we identified patients with acute ischemic stroke who presented within 4.5 hours of symptom onset and had initial NIH Stroke Scale scores ≤ 5. Functional outcomes at three months after the stroke were classified as favorable (modified Rankin Scale score [mRS] 0 to 1) or unfavorable (mRS 2-6). The individual NIH Stroke Scale items were dichotomized as absent (0) or present (≥1) for the analysis. The NIH Stroke Scale items and the total score were tested for predicting the outcomes in multivariable models adjusting for demographics and clinical characteristics. Area under the ROC curve (AUC) was used to assess the performance of multivariable models. Results: Among 2,209 patients who met the eligible criteria, 588 patients (26.6%) exhibited unfavorable functional outcome (mRS 2-6) at three months. The most frequently present items were item 10 (dysarthria, 37.5%), item 4 (facial palsy, 21.1%), item 8 (sensory, 15.0%), and items indicating limb paralysis. Among 15 items of NIH Stroke Scale, all items except for item 8 (sensory) and item 11 (extinction) were significantly associated with unfavorable functional outcomes in bivariate analysis (P 〈 0.05), and many of them remained significant in multivariable analyses. In multivariable analyses, the model including the total NIH Stroke Scale scores exhibited similar AUC (0.759; 95% CI, 0.740 -0.776; P=0.75 for pairwise comparison) compared to the model with all NIH Stroke Scale items (0.758; 0.739 - 0.775) in predicting functional outcomes after the stroke. Conclusions: Simply using the total score was as effective as using all NIH Stroke Scale items in predicting outcomes of patients presented with mild stroke symptom.

    Abstract: Objective: This study aimed to describe clinical outcomes in patients treated with intravenous (IV) tPA according to evidence of previous Intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) and investigate the associations between previous ICH and clinical outcomes. Methods: Using a prospective multicenter stroke registry database, we identified acute ischemic stroke patients who were hospitalized to the 14 participating centers between January 2011 and July 2013 and were treated with IV tPA within 4.5 h of onset. Presence of previous ICH was screened using the formal radiologic reports or the clinical history of ICH from the registry database. If suspected, previous ICH was confirmed through direct review of brain MRI. As clinical outcomes, modified Rankin scale (mRS) 0-1 at discharge, mortality during hospitalization and symptomatic hemorrhagic transformation (sHT) were collected. sHT was defined according to the definition of SITS-MOST trial. Results: Among 1495 patients who were treated with IV tPA, 70 (4.7%) had evidence of previous ICH. sHT developed in 69 (4.6%) of all subjects; 7.1% (n=5) of 70 patients with previous ICH and 4.5% (n=64) of 1425 without previous ICH (p=0.25 on Fisher’s exact test). Hospital Mortality and mRS 0-1 at discharge was observed in 5.6% and 26.6% of all subjects and in 8.6% and 22.9% of those with previous ICH and 5.4% and 26.7% in those without it (p=0.28 on Fisher’s exact test and p=0.47 on Pearson’s chi-squared test, respectively). Multivariable logistic regression analysis with adjustment for age, initial National Institute of Health Stroke Scale, initial glucose and tPA dose showed that previous ICH was not associated with sHT, mortality during hospitalization and having discharge mRS 0-1 (p’s 〉 0.4). Review of MRI on 5 patients who had previous ICH and developed sHT after IV tPA demonstrated that, in 4 cases, location of sHT was different from where previous ICH had developed, but in 1 case sHT occurred exactly where previous ICH had developed. Conclusions: This study shows that previous ICH may not increase the risk of sHT and death and aggravate functional outcome at discharge. However, it should be noted that the retrospective nature and small sample size of this study limit the generalization of its results.

    Abstract: Background: Incidence of gastrointestinal (GI) bleeding after acute ischemic stroke (AIS) was reported as 1.5% during hospitalization, one-thirds of which required blood transfusion. However, it is not known about the long-term incidence and the incidence rates by period after AIS. Methods: AIS patients who were admitted to the 14 participating hospitals between 2011 and 2013 were identified using a nationwide multicenter prospective stroke registry database. GI bleeding was captured with related diagnosis codes by International Classification of Diseases-10th Revision through the linkage between the registry database and the claims data. Bleeding requiring at least 2 packs of blood transfusion was defined as major GI bleeding. Incidence rates were calculated for each period as follow; 0-30 days, 31-90 days, 91-180 days, 181-365 days, 1-2 years, 2-3years, after 3 years. Results: Of 10,818 AIS patients, 59.0% were male and mean age was 67.5 ± 12.9 years. The median follow-up duration was 3.1 (interquartile range 2.3 to 4.0) years. During 31,208 person-years, 947 patients (8.8%) had 1,224 episodes of major GI bleeding. Annual incidence rate was 3.92 per 100 person-years. The incidence rates by periods were the highest at 19.21 per 100 person-years in the first month of AIS, gradually decreased to 9.02 in one to three months, 6.18 in three to six months, and 3.48 in six to twelve months. After three years, it remained at about 2.62 events per 100 person-years. During the observation period, only one major GI bleeding occurred without recurrence in about 80% of patients, about 13% recurred twice, and about 6% of patients had three or more recurrences. In the multivariable recurrent event analysis, anemia at admission, lower eGFR below 60, and mRS at 3 months ≥4 were independently associated with higher risk of major GI bleeding during the most of the observation period above 3 years. Conclusions: Major GI bleeding, requiring transfusion, seems to occur frequently after AIS, and the risk was gradually decreased after stroke. The efforts are needed to prevent it, especially in stroke patients with anemia and decreased renal function.
