    Abstract: Optimal antithrombotic regimens to prevent recurrent stroke in patients with ischemic stroke due to atrial fibrillation (AF) and atherosclerotic large-vessel stenosis remain unknown. Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the effect of multiple antithrombotic therapies on outcomes at 1 year after ischemic stroke due to two or more causes. Methods: We identified 862 patients with ischemic stroke due to AF and large artery atherosclerosis from the linked data. These patients were categorized into three groups according to antithrombotic therapies at discharge: (1) antiplatelets, (2) oral anticoagulants (OAC), and (3) antiplatelets plus OAC. The study outcomes were recurrent ischemic stroke, composite outcomes for cardiovascular events, and major bleeding after 1 year. Inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) was used to balance the three groups using propensity scores. Results: Among 862 patients, 169 (19.6%) were treated with antiplatelets, 405 (47.0%) were treated with OAC, and 288 (33.4%) were treated with antiplatelets and OAC. After applying IPTW, only OAC had a significant beneficial effect on the 1-year composite outcome (hazard ratio (HR): 0.37, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.23–0.60, p  〈  0.001) and death (HR: 0.35, 95% CI: (0.19–0.63), p  〈  0.001). The combination of antiplatelet agents and OAC group had an increased risk of major bleeding complications (HR: 5.27, 95% CI: (1.31–21.16), p = 0.019). However, there was no significant difference in 1-year recurrent stroke events among the three groups. Conclusion: This study demonstrated that OAC monotherapy was associated with lower risks of composite outcome and death in patients at 1 year after ischemic stroke due to AF and atherosclerotic stenosis. In addition, the combination of an antiplatelet and OAC had a high risk of major bleeding.

    Abstract: There is much uncertainty in endovascular treatment (EVT) decisions in patients with acute large vessel occlusion (LVO) and mild neurological deficits. Methods From a prospective, nationwide stroke registry, all patients with LVO and baseline NIHSS & lt;6 presenting within 24 h from the time last known well (LKW) were included. Early neurological deterioration (END) developed before EVT was prospectively collected as an increasing total NIHSS score ≥2 or any worsening of the NIHSS consciousness or motor subscores during hospitalization not related to EVT. Significant hemorrhage was defined as PH2 hemorrhagic transformation or hemorrhage at a remote site. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was prospectively collected at 3 months. Results Among 1,083 patients, 149 (14%) patients received EVT after a median of 5.9 [3.6–12.3] h after LKW. In propensity score-matched analyses, EVT was not associated with mRS 0-1 (matched OR 0.99 [0.63–1.54] ) but increased the risk of a significant hemorrhage (matched OR, 4.51 [1.59–12.80]). Extraneous END occurred in 207 (19%) patients after a median of 24.5 h [IQR, 13.5–41.9 h] after LKW (incidence rate, 1.41 [95% CI, 1.23–1.62] per 100 person-hours). END unrelated to EVT showed a tendency to modify the effectiveness of EVT (P-for-interaction, 0.08), which decreased the odds of having mRS 0–1 in mild LVO patients without END (adjusted OR, 0.63 [0.40–0.99] ). Conclusions The use of EVT in patients with acute LVO and low NIHSS scores may require the assessment of individual risks of early deterioration, hemorrhagic complications and expected benefit.

    Abstract: Approximately 10% of patients with acute ischemic stroke with large‐vessel occlusion (LVO) have mild neurological deficits. Although leptomeningeal collaterals (LMCs) are the major determinant of clinical outcomes for patients with acute ischemic stroke with LVO, the contribution of baseline LMC status to subsequent infarct progression in patients with mild stroke with LVO is poorly defined. Methods This observational study included patients with acute anterior circulation LVO and mild stroke symptoms (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale 〈 6) from a prospectively collected, multicenter, national stroke registry. The Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score was quantified on the initial and follow‐up images. An infarct progression, defined as any Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score decrease between the initial versus follow‐up scans, was categorized as either 0/1/2+. The LMCs on the baseline images were graded as good, fair, or poor. Results Of the 623 included patients (mean age, 67.6±13.4 years; 380 [61.0%] men; 186 [29.9%] with reperfusion treatment), the baseline LMC was graded as good in 331 (53.1%), fair in 219 (35.2%), and poor in 73 (11.7%). The Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography Score decrement was noted as 0 in 288 (46%) patients, 1 in 154 (24%), and 2+ in 181 (29%). A poor LMC was associated with an infarct progression (adjusted odds ratio, 2.05 [95% CI, 1.22–3.47]). Conclusions Poor collateral blood flow was associated with infarct progression in patients with acute ischemic stroke with LVO and mild symptoms. In this selective population, early assessment of collateral blood flow status can help in early detection of patients susceptible to infarct progression.

    Abstract: International guidelines recommend avoiding intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with ischemic stroke who have a recent intake of a direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC). Objective To determine the risk of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) associated with use of IVT in patients with recent DOAC ingestion. Design, Setting, and Participants This international, multicenter, retrospective cohort study included 64 primary and comprehensive stroke centers across Europe, Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. Consecutive adult patients with ischemic stroke who received IVT (both with and without thrombectomy) were included. Patients whose last known DOAC ingestion was more than 48 hours before stroke onset were excluded. A total of 832 patients with recent DOAC use were compared with 32 375 controls without recent DOAC use. Data were collected from January 2008 to December 2021. Exposures Prior DOAC therapy (confirmed last ingestion within 48 hours prior to IVT) compared with no prior oral anticoagulation. Main Outcomes and Measures The main outcome was sICH within 36 hours after IVT, defined as worsening of at least 4 points on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and attributed to radiologically evident intracranial hemorrhage. Outcomes were compared according to different selection strategies (DOAC-level measurements, DOAC reversal treatment, IVT with neither DOAC-level measurement nor idarucizumab). The association of sICH with DOAC plasma levels and very recent ingestions was explored in sensitivity analyses. Results Of 33 207 included patients, 14 458 (43.5%) were female, and the median (IQR) age was 73 (62-80) years. The median (IQR) National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score was 9 (5-16). Of the 832 patients taking DOAC, 252 (30.3%) received DOAC reversal before IVT (all idarucizumab), 225 (27.0%) had DOAC-level measurements, and 355 (42.7%) received IVT without measuring DOAC plasma levels or reversal treatment. The unadjusted rate of sICH was 2.5% (95% CI, 1.6-3.8) in patients taking DOACs compared with 4.1% (95% CI, 3.9-4.4) in control patients using no anticoagulants. Recent DOAC ingestion was associated with lower odds of sICH after IVT compared with no anticoagulation (adjusted odds ratio, 0.57; 95% CI, 0.36-0.92). This finding was consistent among the different selection strategies and in sensitivity analyses of patients with detectable plasma levels or very recent ingestion. Conclusions and Relevance In this study, there was insufficient evidence of excess harm associated with off-label IVT in selected patients after ischemic stroke with recent DOAC ingestion.

    Abstract: The expected growth of stroke burden in Korea in early 2000s led to the initiation of a government-funded clinical research project with the goal of development and implementation of national stroke guidelines. The CRCS-K (Clinical Research Collaboration for Stroke in Korea) began as a part of this project. For stroke epidemiology and quality of care research, the CRCS-K developed a multicenter, prospective, stroke registry and began collection of data in 2008. Now, about 100 000 cases have been registered at 17 university hospitals or regional stroke centers and about 200 articles have been published based on the registry experience. The analysis of the 10-year secular trends showed overall improvement of stroke care and outcomes and areas for improvement. This large-scale, high-quality dataset provides opportunities to explore and compare treatment disparities using the comparative effectiveness research methods, design and conduct a registry-based randomized clinical trial, connect the registry data with other data sources including the national claims data and neuroimaging or genetic data, and collaborate with other international researchers. An international stroke registry consortium may be a viable future direction.

    Abstract: Introduction: There is lack of knowledge on whether symptomatic steno-occlusion (SYSO), common in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with atrial fibrillation (AF), could increase the long-term risk of stroke recurrence in these patients. Methods: From a prospective cohort of patients with AIS and AF enrolled in 14 centers between Oct 2017 and Dec 2018, we identified patients who underwent MR angiography during hospitalization and completed 3-year follow-up including death during follow-up. SYSO was defined as (1) ≥ 50% stenosis or occlusion of cerebral arteries relevant to acute infarction or (2) any residual stenosis after endovascular treatment. Using cause-specific hazard models with non-stroke death as a competing risk, the risk of any recurrent stroke and recurrent ischemic stroke was estimated according to SYSO, respectively. Results: A total of 889 patients (mean age, 74.4 years; men, 54.6 %; median NIHSS, 6) were analyzed for this study. During the median 1096 days of follow-up, 152 any recurrent strokes, 142 recurrent ischemic strokes, and 208 deaths were observed. Patients with SYSO, compared to those without, were more likely to be older, be female, have hypertension, diabetes and history of stroke/TIA, and be on antiplatelets at discharge and were less likely to be on anticoagulants at discharge ( p 〈 .05). The cumulative incidence of recurrent stroke in patients with and without SYSO was 25.2% and 8.3% at 1 month, 33.1% and 9.9% at 1 year, and 41.8% and 13.1% at 3 years, respectively ( p 〈 .001). With adjusting age, sex, hypertension, diabetes, history of stroke/TIA, discharge antiplatelets, and discharge anticoagulants, SYSO increased the risk of any stroke recurrence (adjusted hazard ratio [95% confidence interval]; 3.02 [2.18-4.20] ; p 〈 .001) and ischemic stroke recurrence (3.20 [2.28-4.51]; p 〈 .001). Conclusions: SYSO in AIS patients with AF substantially increased the risk of recurrent stroke by a 3-fold or more. Accordingly, SYSO should be considered in stratifying the risk of recurrence in AIS patients with AF.

    Abstract: Stroke is a devastating and costly disease; however, there is a paucity of information on long-term costs and on how they differ according to 3-month modified Rankin scale (mRS) score, which is a primary outcome variable in acute stroke intervention trials. Methods We analyzed a prospective multicenter stroke registry (Clinical Research Collaboration for Stroke in Korea) database through linkage with claims data from the National Health Insurance Service with follow-up to December 2016. Healthcare expenditures were converted into daily cost individually, and annual and cumulative costs up to 5 years were estimated and compared according to the 3-month mRS score. Results Between January 2011 and November 2013, 11,136 patients were enrolled in the study. The mean age was 68 years, and 58% were men. The median follow-up period was 3.9 years (range 0–5 years). Mean cumulative cost over 5 years was $117,576 (US dollars [USD]); the cost in the first year after stroke was the highest ($38,152 USD), which increased markedly from the cost a year before stroke ($8,718 USD). The mean 5-year cumulative costs differed significantly according to the 3-month mRS score ( p 〈 0.001); the costs for a 3-month mRS score of 0 or 5 were $53,578 and $257,486 USD, respectively. Three-month mRS score was an independent determinant of long-term costs after stroke. Conclusions We show that 3-month mRS score plays an important role in the prediction of long-term costs after stroke. Such estimates relating to 3-month mRS categories may be valuable when undertaking health economic evaluations related to stroke care.

    Abstract: Background: Outcome improvement in young stroke patients is of great interest given their long life expectancy and substantial societal burden. We aimed to investigate whether the treatment advancement has been made and translated into outcome improvement in young patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: From a prospective multicenter stroke registry in South Korea, young AIS patients (aged 18-50) hospitalized between 2008 and 2019 were identified. The study period was divided into 4 epochs. The secular trends of patient characteristics, treatments, and outcomes adjusted for potential confounders were analyzed. Results: This study included 7,050 young AIS patients (mean age 43.1; men 71.9%) from 70,567 enrolled during the period. The mean age decreased from 43.6 years in 2008-2010 to 42.9 years in 2017-19 (P trend =.009). Obesity increased (40.1% to 49.0%), but current smoking decreased (53.1% to 42.8%). Other vascular risk factors and sex proportions did not change (P trend ’s 〉 0.5). Onset-to-arrival time and door-to-puncture time for mechanical thrombectomy did not change (P trend ’s 〉 0.5), but door-to-needle time for intravenous thrombolysis improved (P trend 〈 .001). Acute and secondary stroke prevention treatments including intravenous thrombolysis (9.5% to 13.8%), mechanical thrombectomy (3.2% to 9.2%), dual antiplatelet therapy for minor stroke (26.6% to 48.0%), direct oral anticoagulant for atrial fibrillation (0.0% to 56.2%) and statins (71.5% to 91.2%) improved significantly (P trend ’s 〈 .01). For stroke outcomes, for which data were available since 2011, the proportions of 3-month modified Rankin Scale 0-1 (68.3% to 69.1%) and 0-2 (87.6% to 86.2%), one-year mortality (2.5% to 2.4%), and one-year stroke recurrence (4.4% to 5.3%) did not improve (adjusted P trend ’s 〉 0.2). Conclusions: This study shows that the treatment improvements did not lead to outcome improvements in young AIS patients. The findings indicate that we should not be complacent with the current advances.
