    Abstract: It is unclear whether patients with different stroke/transient ischemic attack etiologies benefit differently from gene-directed dual antiplatelet therapy. This study explored the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin in transient ischemic attack or minor stroke with different causes in the CHANCE-2 trial (Clopidogrel in High-Risk Patients With Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events-II). METHODS: This was a prespecified analysis of the CHANCE-2 trial, which enrolled 6412 patients with minor stroke or transient ischemic attack who carried CYP2C19 loss-of-function alleles. Patients with centralized evaluation of TOAST (Trial of ORG 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment) classification of large-artery atherosclerosis, small-vessel occlusion, and stroke of undetermined cause were included. The primary efficacy outcome was new stroke, and the primary safety outcome was severe or moderate bleeding, both within 90 days. Cox proportional hazards models were used to assess the interaction of TOAST classification with the effects of dual antiplatelet therapy with ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin. RESULTS: A total of 6336 patients were included in this study. In patients administered ticagrelor-aspirin and clopidogrel-aspirin, respectively, stroke recurred in 85 (9.8%) and 88 (10.7%) patients with large-artery atherosclerosis (hazard ratio, 0.86 [95% CI, 0.63–1.18]; P =0.34); 32 (3.6%) and 61 (7.0%) patients with small-vessel occlusion (hazard ratio, 0.51 [95% CI, 0.33–0.79]; P =0.002); and 68 (4.8%) and 87 (5.9%) patients with stroke of undetermined cause (hazard ratio, 0.80 [95% CI, 0.58–1.10]; P =0.17), with P =0.08 for the treatment×cause subtype interaction effect. There were no significant differences in severe or moderate bleeding events in patients with different cause and different treatment. CONCLUSIONS: In this prespecified analysis of the CHANCE-2 trial, the efficacy and safety of ticagrelor-aspirin versus clopidogrel-aspirin in preventing new stroke were consistent in patients with different causes. The influence of stroke cause on benefit of gene-guided antiplatelet therapy should be explored by further trials. REGISTRATION: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov ; Unique identifier: NCT04078737.

    Imaging Parameters Predict Recurrence After Transient Ischemic Attack or Minor Stroke Stratified by ABCD 2 Score
    Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health) ; 2021
    In:  Stroke Vol. 52, No. 6 ( 2021-06), p. 2007-2015

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 52, No. 6 ( 2021-06), p. 2007-2015
    Abstract: Whether imaging parameters would independently predict stroke recurrence in low-risk minor ischemic stroke (MIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA) according to traditional score system (such as ABCD 2 score, which was termed on the basis of the initials of the five factors: age, blood pressure, clinical features, duration, diabetes) remains unclear. We sought to evaluate the association between imaging parameters and 1-year stroke recurrence in patients with TIA or MIS in different risk stratum stratified by ABCD 2 score. Methods: We included patients with TIA and MIS (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score ≤3) with complete baseline vessel and brain imaging data from the Third China National Stroke Registry III. Patients were categorized into different risk groups based on ABCD 2 score (low risk, 0–3; moderate risk, 4–5; and high risk, 6–7). The primary outcome was stroke recurrence within 1 year. Multivariable Cox proportional-hazards regression models were used to assess whether imaging parameters (large artery stenosis, infarction number) were independently associated with stroke recurrence. Results: Of the 7140 patients included, 584 patients experienced stroke recurrence within 1 year. According to the ABCD 2 score, large artery stenosis was associated with higher stroke recurrence in both low-risk (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.746 [95% CI, 1.200–2.540]) and moderate-risk group (adjusted hazard ratio, 1.326 [95% CI, 1.042–1.687] ) but not in the high-risk group ( P 〉 0.05). Patients with multiple acute infarctions or single acute infarction had a higher risk of recurrent stroke than those with no infarction in both low- and moderate-risk groups, but not in the high-risk group. Conclusions: Large artery stenosis and infarction number were independent predictors of 1-year stroke recurrence in low-moderate risk but not in high-risk patients with TIA or MIS stratified by ABCD 2 score. This finding emphasizes the importance of early brain and vascular imaging evaluation for risk stratification in patients with TIA or MIS.

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 52, No. 5 ( 2021-05), p. 1589-1600
    Abstract: A recent randomized controlled trial DIRECT-MT (Direct Intra-Arterial Thrombectomy to Revascularize AIS Patients With Large Vessel Occlusion Efficiently in Chinese Tertiary Hospitals) compared the safety and efficacy of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) versus combined intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and MT for acute large vessel occlusion. The current study utilized a prospective, nationwide registry to validate the results of the DIRECT-MT trial in a real-world practice setting. Methods: Subjects were selected from a prospective cohort of acute large vessel occlusion patients undergoing endovascular treatment at 111 hospitals from 26 provinces in China (ANGEL-ACT registry [Endovascular Treatment Key Technique and Emergency Work Flow Improvement of Acute Ischemic Stroke]) between November 2017 and March 2019. All patients eligible for IVT and receiving MT were reviewed and then grouped according to whether prior IVT or not (MT and combined IVT+MT). After a 1:1 propensity score matching, the outcome measures including the 90-day modified Rankin Scale, successful recanalization, door-to-puncture time, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and intraprocedural embolization were compared. Results: A total of 1026 patients, 600 in the MT group and 426 in the combined group, were included. Among 788 patients identified after matching, there were no significant differences in the 90-day modified Rankin Scale (median, 3 versus 3 points; P =0.82) and successful recanalization (86.6% versus 89.3%; P =0.23) between the two groups; however, patients of the MT group had a shorter door-to-puncture time (median, 112 versus 136 minutes; β=−45.02 [95% CI, −68.31 to −21.74]), lower rates of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (5.5% versus 10.1%; odds ratio, 0.52 [95% CI, 0.30–0.91] ), and embolization (4.6% versus 8.1%; odds ratio, 0.54 [95% CI, 0.30–0.98]) than those of the combined group. Conclusions: This matched-control study largely confirmed the findings of the DIRECT-MT trial in a real-world practice setting, suggesting that MT may carry similar effectiveness to combined IVT+MT for acute large vessel occlusion patients, despite MT alone seems to be associated with a shorter in-hospital delay until procedure, lower risks of symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage, and embolization.

    Abstract: The role of stroke etiology subtype in patients with acute large vessel occlusion on the occurrence of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) after endovascular treatment is poorly studied, and which factors mediate their relationship remains largely unknown. We utilized nationwide registry data to explore the association of stroke subtype (cardioembolism versus large artery atherosclerosis) with HT and to identify the possible mediators. Methods: A total of 1015 subjects were selected from the ANGEL-ACT registry (Endovascular Treatment Key Technique and Emergency Work Flow Improvement of Acute Ischemic Stroke)—a prospective consecutive cohort of acute large vessel occlusion patients undergoing endovascular treatment at 111 hospitals in China between November 2017 and March 2019—and divided into large artery atherosclerosis (n=538) and cardioembolism (n=477) according to the Trial of ORG 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment criteria. The types of HT included any intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), parenchymal hematoma, and symptomatic ICH within 24 hours after endovascular treatment. The association between stroke subtype and HT was analyzed using a logistic regression model. Mediation analysis was done to assess how much of the effect of stroke subtype on HT was mediated through the identified mediators. Results: Stroke subtype (cardioembolism versus large artery atherosclerosis) was associated with increased risk of any ICH (29.8% versus 16.5%; odds ratio, 2.03 [95% CI, 1.22–3.36]), parenchymal hematoma (14.3% versus 5.4%; odds ratio, 2.90 [95% CI, 1.38–6.13] ), and symptomatic ICH (9.9% versus 4.7%; odds ratio, 2.59 [95% CI, 1.09–6.16]) after adjustment for potential confounders. The more thrombectomy passes in cardioembolism patients had a significant mediation effect on the association of stroke subtype with increased risk of HT (any ICH, 15.9%; parenchymal hematoma, 13.4%; symptomatic ICH, 14.2%, respectively). Conclusions: Stroke subtype is an independent risk factor for HT within 24 hours following endovascular treatment among acute large vessel occlusion patients. Mediation analyses propose that stroke subtype contributes to HT partly through thrombectomy pass, suggesting a possible pathomechanistic link.

    Abstract: The benefit of endovascular treatment (EVT) for large vessel occlusion in clinical practice in developing countries like China needs to be confirmed. The aim of the study was to determine whether the benefit of EVT for acute ischemic stroke in randomized trials could be generalized to clinical practice in Chinese population. Methods: We conducted a prospective registry of EVT at 111 centers in China. Patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by imaging-confirmed intracranial large vessel occlusion and receiving EVT were included. The primary outcome was functional independence at 90 days defined as a modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 2. Outcomes of specific subgroups in the anterior circulation were reported and logistic regression was performed to predict the primary outcome. Results: Among the 1793 enrolled patients, 1396 (77.9%) had anterior circulation large vessel occlusion (median age, 66 [56–73] years) and 397 (22.1%) had posterior circulation large vessel occlusion (median age, 64 [55–72] years). Functional independence at 90 days was reached in 45% and 44% in anterior and posterior circulation groups, respectively. For anterior circulation population, underlying intracranial atherosclerotic disease was identified in 29% of patients, with higher functional independence at 90 days (52% versus 44%; P =0.0122) than patients without intracranial atherosclerotic disease. In the anterior circulation population, after adjusting for baseline characteristics, procedure details, and early outcomes, the independent predictors for functional independence at 90 days were age 〈 66 years (odds ratio [OR], 1.733 [95% CI, 1.213–2.476] ), time from onset to puncture 〉 6 hours (OR, 1.536 [95% CI, 1.065–2.216]), local anesthesia (OR, 2.194 [95% CI, 1.325–3.633] ), final modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2b/3 (OR, 2.052 [95% CI, 1.085–3.878]), puncture-to-reperfusion time ≤1.5 hours (OR, 1.628 [95% CI, 1.098–2.413] ), and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score 24 hours after the procedure 〈 11 (OR, 9.126 [95% CI, 6.222–13.385]). Conclusions: Despite distinct characteristics in the Chinese population, favorable outcome of EVT can be achieved in clinical practice in China.

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 52, No. 3 ( 2021-03), p. 772-780
    Abstract: Edaravone dexborneol, comprised of 2 active ingredients, edaravone and (+)-borneol, has been developed as a novel neuroprotective agent with synergistic effects of antioxidant and anti-inflammatory in animal models. The present clinical trial aimed at testing the effects of edaravone dexborneol versus edaravone on 90-day functional outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Methods: A multicenter, randomized, double-blind, comparative, phase III clinical trial was conducted at 48 hospitals in China between May 2015 and December 2016. Inclusion criteria included patients diagnosed as AIS, 35 to 80 years of age, National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale Score between 4 and 24, and within 48 hours of AIS onset. AIS patients were randomized in 1:1 ratio into 2 treatment arms: 14-day infusion of edaravone dexborneol or edaravone injection. The primary end point was the proportion of patients with modified Rankin Scale score ≤1 on day 90 after randomization. Results: One thousand one hundred sixty-five AIS patients were randomly allocated to the edaravone dexborneol group (n=585) or the edaravone group (n=580). The edaravone dexborneol group showed significantly higher proportion of patients experiencing good functional outcomes on day 90 after randomization, compared with the edaravone group (modified Rankin Scale score ≤1, 67.18% versus 58.97%; odds ratio, 1.42 [95% CI, 1.12–1.81]; P =0.004). The prespecified subgroup analyses indicated that a greater benefit was observed in female patients than their male counterparts (2.26, 1.49–3.43 versus 1.14, 0.85–1.52). Conclusions: When edaravone dexborneol versus edaravone was administered within 48 hours after AIS, 90-day good functional outcomes favored the edaravone dexborneol group, especially in female patients.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to analyze the benefits and safety associated with the combination therapy of clopidogrel and aspirin among minor stroke or transient ischemic attack patients treated within 12 hours. Methods and Results This was a subanalysis of the CHANCE (Clopidogrel in High‐Risk Patients with Acute Nondisabling Cerebrovascular Events) trial, mainly limited to the prespecified group of patients randomized within 12 hours to either the combination of clopidogrel plus aspirin or aspirin alone. The primary outcome was ischemic stroke during 90‐day follow‐up. Recurrent ischemic stroke and progressive ischemic stroke were analyzed. Multivariable Cox modeling showed that randomization within 12 hours was an independent predictor of ischemic stroke events (hazard ratio [95% CI ] 1.25 [1.04–1.49] , P =0.02). Among 2573 patients randomized within 12 hours, 282 (10.96%) patients had ischemic stroke events. Among them, 158 (12.34%) of 1280 patients taking aspirin experienced ischemic stroke compared with 124 (9.59%) of 1293 patients taking clopidogrel–aspirin ( P =0.02). The dual antiplatelet was more effective than aspirin alone in reducing the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke (6.57% versus 8.91%, P =0.03) but not progressive ischemic stroke (3.02% versus 3.43%, P =0.28). There was no significant difference in hemorrhagic events ( P =0.39). Conclusions Among patients treated within 12 hours, the combination of clopidogrel and aspirin was more effective than aspirin alone in reducing the risk of recurrent ischemic stroke during the 90‐day follow‐up and did not increase the hemorrhagic risk.

    In: Stroke, Ovid Technologies (Wolters Kluwer Health), Vol. 53, No. 9 ( 2022-09), p. 2859-2867
    Abstract: The purpose of this study is to examine the associations of Life’s Simple 7 (LS7) with risks of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) and its magnetic resonance imaging markers. Methods: Community-dwelling residents in Lishui city in China from the cross-sectional survey of the PRECISE study (Polyvascular Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and Vascular Events) were included in this study from 2017 to 2019. LS7 was analyzed as the total score, medical score (derived from the 3 metrics based on medical history and testing), and behavioral score (based on 4 metrics based on behaviors), and categorized as poor, intermediate, or ideal. A CSVD score or a modified CSVD score was derived from 4 magnetic resonance imaging markers (lacunes, microbleeds, perivascular spaces, and white matter hyperintensity) at baseline. Binary logistic regression or ordinal logistic regression model was used to estimate the relationship of LS7 scores with CSVD and magnetic resonance imaging markers. Results: A total of 3061 participants were included in this study. Compared with poor total LS7 score, ideal LS7 total score was associated with reduced adjusted odds of higher CSVD score (common odds ratio [cOR], 0.73 [95% CI, 0.58–0.90] ) and higher modified CSVD score (cOR, 0.78 [95% CI, 0.64–0.95]). Compared with poor LS7 medical score, ideal LS7 medical score was associated with reduced adjusted odds of higher CSVD score (cOR, 0.65 [95% CI, 0.53–0.80] ) and higher modified CSVD score (cOR, 0.67 [95% CI, 0.56–0.81]). Higher total LS7 score and LS7 medical score were associated with a lower risk of white matter hyperintensities and lacunes. Higher LS7 behavioral score was associated with lower risk of lacunes. Conclusions: Ideal LS7 score, indicating excellent cardiovascular health, was associated with lower total CSVD burden. Optimizing the risk factors captured by LS7 may reduce the progression of CSVD.

    Abstract: Background: Task-shifting rehabilitative care from rehabilitation therapists to physicians, nurses, and relatives may supplement the shortage of specialized rehabilitation personnel in China. However, it is unknown how this practice affects patient outcomes. This study examined the association of rehabilitation provider type with functional dependence and mortality among patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) in China. Methods: Patients with AIS hospitalized at participating China National Stroke Registry II hospitals were eligible if they had no pre-stroke disability (modified Rankin Scale [mRS]=0-2), had moderate to severe neurological deficits at admission (NIHSS 〉 4), and returned home after hospital discharge. Using multivariable logistic and Cox regression models, we compared rehabilitation care provided by therapists versus physicians, nurses, or relatives on functional dependence (mRS=3-6) and mortality at 3, 6, and 12 months after discharge, adjusting for patient characteristics. Results: A total of 3741 patients received in-hospital rehabilitation, 56.21% from rehabilitation therapists and 43.79% from others. Among patients with NIHSS=5-9 and NIHSS=10-14, there were no differences between groups for any of the outcomes (Table 1). However, for severe stroke patients (NIHSS 〉 14), non-therapist care was associated with higher odds of mortality at 3-months follow-up (HR=2.13, 95%CI 1.11-4.07, P=0.02) and 12-months follow-up (HR=1.88, 95%CI 1.17-3.01, P=0.01). Hospital-level analysis showed that it was more common for nonteaching hospitals to be without rehabilitation therapists. Conclusions: This study suggests a lower mortality risk for patients with severe stroke when treated by a rehabilitation therapist versus others. Future studies should explore the dose, frequency and focus of acute stroke rehabilitation by different providers to better delineate the mechanisms for improving patient outcomes.

    Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between serum cystatin C levels and the presence and severity of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Methods: Community-dwelling residents in the Lishui city in China from the cross-sectional survey of the PRECISE (Poly-Vascular Evaluation for Cognitive Impairment and Vascular Events) cohort study were included in present study from 2017 to 2019. Total CSVD burden and modified total CSVD burden score, as well as the markers of CSVD on magnetic resonance imaging, including white matter hyperintensity, lacunes, cerebral microbleeds, and perivascular spaces, were assessed at baseline survey. Participants were divided into 4 groups according to the quartiles of cystatin C. The association of serum cystatin C with total CSVD burden and imaging markers was analyzed using ordinal or binary logistic regression models. Furthermore, 2-sample Mendelian randomization analysis was performed to investigate the genetically predicted effect of cystatin C on CSVD. Results: A total of 3061 participants were included in this study. The mean age of the participants was 61.2±6.7 years, and 1637 (53.5%) were women. Higher level of cystatin C was associated with an increased total CSVD burden and modified total CSVD burden (Q4 versus Q1: common odds ratio [OR], 1.30 [95% CI, 1.03–1.64] and 1.32 [95% CI, 1.01–1.73]) after adjustment for covariates. Further, compared with the first quartile of cystatin C, subjects in the last quartile had higher risk of lacunes (OR, 1.99 [95% CI, 1.05–3.76] ), modified white matter hyperintensity burden (common OR, 1.42 [95% CI, 1.07–1.90]), and moderate-to-severe perivascular spaces (OR, 2.15 [95% CI, 1.29–3.59] ) but not cerebral microbleeds. The Mendelian randomization analysis showed that a genetically predicted higher cystatin C level was associated with increased risk of lacunar stroke (OR, 1.16 [95% CI, 1.06–1.27]). Conclusions: In this community-based study, we found a possible association between cystatin C and CSVD, especially for lacunes, that was independent of estimated glomerular filtration rate.
