    Kurzfassung: Intraprocedural coil migration during endovascular treatment for an aneurysm that might carry serious ischemic complications is well known. On the other hand, delayed coil migration after endovascular treatment for an aneurysm is very rare. A 77-year-old woman was incidentally diagnosed with unruptured aneurysm associated with distal azygos anterior cerebral artery (ACA). The aneurysm was located at the distal bifurcation of the azygos ACA and was wide necked (approximately 7 mm in diameter). Endovascular coil embolization was selected and the aneurysm was occluded successfully, but 29 days after endovascular therapy, follow-up computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance (MR) angiography revealed distal coil migration in the peripheral portion of the ACA. In addition, CT on day 57 after therapy revealed the migrated coil had moved more distally. Fortunately, in the course of these events, the patient remained asymptomatic. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first case of delayed distal coil migration associated with relatively rare azygos ACA aneurysm, and also the first report confirming more distal coil movement over time. In the future, a large number of patients could develop this complication as more aneurysms are aggressively treated with endovascular treatment. Knowledge regarding the possibility of delayed coil migration is thus important.

    Kurzfassung: Improved outcomes in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) treated at high-volume centers have been reported. The authors sought to examine whether hospital case volume and comprehensive stroke center (CSC) capabilities affect outcomes in patients treated with clipping or coiling for SAH. METHODS The authors conducted a nationwide retrospective cohort study in 27,490 SAH patients who underwent clipping or coiling in 621 institutions between 2010 and 2015 and whose data were collected from the Japanese nationwide J-ASPECT Diagnosis Procedure Combination database. The CSC capabilities of each hospital were assessed by use of a validated scoring system based on answers to a previously reported 25-item questionnaire (CSC score 1–25 points). Hospitals were classified into quartiles based on CSC scores and case volumes of clipping or coiling for SAH. RESULTS Overall, the absolute risk reductions associated with high versus low case volumes and high versus low CSC scores were relatively small. Nevertheless, in patients who underwent clipping, a high case volume ( 〉 14 cases/yr) was significantly associated with reduced in-hospital mortality (Q1 as control, Q4 OR 0.71, 95% CI 0.55–0.90) but not with short-term poor outcome. In patients who underwent coiling, a high case volume ( 〉 9 cases/yr) was associated with reduced in-hospital mortality (Q4 OR 0.69, 95% CI 0.53–0.90) and short-term poor outcomes (Q3 [ 〉 5 cases/yr] OR 0.75, 95% CI 0.59–0.96 vs Q4 OR 0.65, 95% CI 0.51–0.82). A high CSC score ( 〉 19 points) was significantly associated with reduced in-hospital mortality for clipping (OR 0.68, 95% CI 0.54–0.86) but not coiling treatment. There was no association between CSC capabilities and short-term poor outcomes. CONCLUSIONS The effects of case volume and CSC capabilities on in-hospital mortality and short-term functional outcomes in SAH patients differed between patients undergoing clipping and those undergoing coiling. In the modern endovascular era, better outcomes of clipping may be achieved in facilities with high CSC capabilities.

    Kurzfassung: COVID-19 is associated with neurological complications including stroke, delirium and encephalitis. Furthermore, a post-viral syndrome dominated by neuropsychiatric symptoms is common, and is seemingly unrelated to COVID-19 severity. The true frequency and underlying mechanisms of neurological injury are unknown, but exaggerated host inflammatory responses appear to be a key driver of COVID-19 severity. We investigated the dynamics of, and relationship between, serum markers of brain injury [neurofilament light (NfL), glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and total tau] and markers of dysregulated host response (autoantibody production and cytokine profiles) in 175 patients admitted with COVID-19 and 45 patients with influenza. During hospitalization, sera from patients with COVID-19 demonstrated elevations of NfL and GFAP in a severity-dependent manner, with evidence of ongoing active brain injury at follow-up 4 months later. These biomarkers were associated with elevations of pro-inflammatory cytokines and the presence of autoantibodies to a large number of different antigens. Autoantibodies were commonly seen against lung surfactant proteins but also brain proteins such as myelin associated glycoprotein. Commensurate findings were seen in the influenza cohort. A distinct process characterized by elevation of serum total tau was seen in patients at follow-up, which appeared to be independent of initial disease severity and was not associated with dysregulated immune responses unlike NfL and GFAP. These results demonstrate that brain injury is a common consequence of both COVID-19 and influenza, and is therefore likely to be a feature of severe viral infection more broadly. The brain injury occurs in the context of dysregulation of both innate and adaptive immune responses, with no single pathogenic mechanism clearly responsible.

    Kurzfassung: Quality indicators (QIs) are an accepted tool for measuring a hospital’s performance in routine care. We examined national trends in adherence to the QIs developed by the Close The Gap-Stroke program by combining data from the health insurance claims database and electronic medical records, and the association between adherence to these QIs and early outcomes in patients with acute ischemic stroke in Japan. Methods: In the present study, patients with acute ischemic stroke who received acute reperfusion therapy in 351 Close The Gap-Stroke-participating hospitals were analyzed retrospectively. The primary outcomes were changes in trends for adherence to the defined QIs by difference-in-difference analysis and the effects of adherence to distinct QIs on in-hospital outcomes at the individual level. A mixed logistic regression model was adjusted for patient and hospital characteristics (eg, age, sex, number of beds) and hospital units as random effects. Results: Between 2013 and 2017, 21 651 patients (median age, 77 years; 43.0% female) were assessed. Of the 25 defined measures, marked and sustainable improvement in the adherence rates was observed for door-to-needle time, door-to-puncture time, proper use of endovascular thrombectomy, and successful revascularization. The in-hospital mortality rate was 11.6%. Adherence to 14 QIs lowered the odds of in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [95% CI], door-to-needle 〈 60 min, 0.80 [0.69–0.93], door-to-puncture 〈 90 min, 0.80 [0.67–0.96], successful revascularization, 0.40 [0.34–0.48] ), and adherence to 11 QIs increased the odds of functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score 0–2) at discharge. Conclusions: We demonstrated national marked and sustainable improvement in adherence to door-to-needle time, door-to-puncture time, and successful reperfusion from 2013 to 2017 in Japan in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Adhering to the key QIs substantially affected in-hospital outcomes, underlining the importance of monitoring the quality of care using evidence-based QIs and the nationwide Close The Gap-Stroke program.

    Kurzfassung: In pediatric patients with minor head trauma, computed tomography (CT) is often performed beyond the scope of recommendations that are based on existing algorithms. Herein, we evaluated pediatric patients with minor head trauma who underwent CT examinations, quantified its frequency, and determined how often traumatic findings were observed in the intracranial region or skull. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed the medical records and neuroimages of pediatric patients (0–5 years) who presented at our hospital with minor head trauma within 24 h after injury. Results: Of 2405 eligible patients, 1592 (66.2%) underwent CT examinations and 45 (1.9%) had traumatic intracranial hemorrhage or skull fracture on CT. No patient underwent surgery or intensive treatment. Multivariate analyses revealed that an age of 1–5 years (vs. 〈 1 year; P 〈 0.001), Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score of 14 (vs. a score of 15; P = 0.008), sustaining a high-altitude fall ( P 〈 0.001), using an ambulance ( P 〈 0.001), and vomiting ( P 〈 0.001) were significantly associated with the performance of CT examination. In addition, traumatic abnormalities on CT were significantly associated with the combination of an age of under 1 year ( P = 0.042), GCS score of 14 ( P 〈 0.001), and sustaining a high-altitude fall ( P = 0.004). Conclusion: Although slightly broader indications for CT use, compared to the previous algorithms, could detect and evaluate minor traumatic changes in pediatric patients with minor head trauma, over-indications for CT examinations to detect only approximately 2% of abnormalities should be avoided and the indications should be determined based on the patient’s age, condition, and cause of injury.

    Kurzfassung: To examine the national, 6-year trends in in-hospital clinical outcomes of patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) who underwent clipping or coiling and the prognostic influence of temporal trends in the Comprehensive Stroke Center (CSC) capabilities on patient outcomes in Japan. Design Retrospective study. Setting Six hundred and thirty-one primary care institutions in Japan. Participants Forty-five thousand and eleven patients with SAH who were urgently hospitalised, identified using the J-ASPECT Diagnosis Procedure Combination database. Primary and secondary outcome measures Annual number of patients with SAH who remained untreated, or who received clipping or coiling, in-hospital mortality and poor functional outcomes (modified Rankin Scale: 3–6) at discharge. Each CSC was assessed using a validated scoring system (CSC score: 1–25 points). Results In the overall cohort, in-hospital mortality decreased (year for trend, OR (95% CI): 0.97 (0.96 to 0.99)), while the proportion of poor functional outcomes remained unchanged (1.00 (0.98 to 1.02)). The proportion of patients who underwent clipping gradually decreased from 46.6% to 38.5%, while that of those who received coiling and those left untreated gradually increased from 16.9% to 22.6% and 35.4% to 38%, respectively. In-hospital mortality of coiled (0.94 (0.89 to 0.98)) and untreated (0.93 (0.90 to 0.96)) patients decreased, whereas that of clipped patients remained stable. CSC score improvement was associated with increased use of coiling (per 1-point increase, 1.14 (1.08 to 1.20)) but not with short-term patient outcomes regardless of treatment modality. Conclusions The 6-year trends indicated lower in-hospital mortality for patients with SAH (attributable to better outcomes), increased use of coiling and multidisciplinary care for untreated patients. Further increasing CSC capabilities may improve overall outcomes, mainly by increasing the use of coiling. Additional studies are necessary to determine the effect of confounders such as aneurysm complexity on outcomes of clipped patients in the modern endovascular era.

    Kurzfassung: Background and Purpose: Heart disease is a common comorbid condition among patients undergoing carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and carotid artery stent placement (CAS). However, the outcomes of patients with heart disease who were treated with CEA/CAS have not been fully examined. We investigated the impact of heart disease on outcomes of CEA and CAS in general practice using the Japanese nationwide data from J-ASPECT study. Methods: We analyzed data from 23,366 patients of CEA or CAS (CEA 8,514, CAS 14,809) who had been hospitalized in the period from April 2012 to March 2017. We extracted data from the Japanese nationwide DPC database for patients who underwent CEA or CAS which were identified from procedural coding with Japanese original K-codes (CEA: K6092, CAS: K609-2). For further categorization of carotid artery stenosis patients with or without heart disease, we used the ICD-10 code (ischemic heart disease, valvular disease cardiomyopathy, conduction disturbance, cardiac arrhythmia, atrial fibrillation/atrial flutter and heart failure) to identify the presence of heart disease. Outcome (death within 30days) was compared between the patient who underwent CEA or CAS and patient with or without heart disease after adjustment for patient characteristics by using the logistic regression analysis. Results: Of the patients who underwent CAS or CEA, 2495 (29.3%) in CEA and 3930 (26.5%) in CAS were complicated with heart disease. Heart disease was not associated with the risk of death within 30days in both patients undergoing CEA (OR, 1.38; 95% CI, 0.54-3.55, p=0.5) or CAS (OR, 1.42; 95% CI, 0.93-2.16, p=0.099). Among heart disease, valvular disease was associated with increased the risk of death within 30days in patients undergoing CEA (OR, 6.71; 95% CI, 1.89-23.77, p=0.0032) and CAS (OR, 2.94; 95% CI, 1.05-8.20, p=0.004) after adjustment for potential confounders. Especially of the patients with valvular disease, aortic valve disease was significantly increased the risk of death within 30days (CEA: OR, 11.2; 95% CI, 3.13-39.8, p=0.0002, CAS: OR, 3.53; 95% CI, 1.07-11.6, p=0.038). Conclusion: Patients who were complicated with valvular disease, especially aortic valve disease had a high risk of death within 30 days after CEA or CAS.

    Kurzfassung: Introduction: We have suggested that inhibition of P2X4 purinoceptor, which is involved in the endothelial flow sensing mechanism, prevents cerebral aneurysm development and growth in an animal model. Therefore, we retrospectively investigated whether a P2X4 inhibitor, paroxetine used as an antidepressant, has an inhibitory effect on the growth of unruptured cerebral aneurysms and the rate of recanalization after coil embolization. Methods: Among the cases registered in the J-ASPECT Study, the Japanese stroke inpatient reimbursement database, from 2010 to 2019, we searched for cases who were taking paroxetine and with registered unruptured cerebral aneurysm or had undergone cerebral aneurysm coil embolization. We then invited medical centers with these cases to participate in the study and enrolled cases that met the selection criteria by referring to the imaging data and patient background of the cases. The inhibitory effect in the paroxetine-treated group was compared with that of the control group in a multivariate analysis after adjustment for age, gender, and known risk factors. Results: There were 708 cases at 226 facilities nationwide that were potentially matched in the criteria. Seventy-four facilities participated, of which 74 cases at 45 facilities met the selection criteria. A total of 700 control cases were enrolled from 14 core participating centers. The rate of growth incidence of aneurysms was 0.0318 for paroxetine-treated cases (n=36) and 0.0960 for control cases (397). The significant factors (regression coefficients) were paroxetine (-2.26), specific sites of occurrence (-1.28), shape irregularity (1.63), age (0.11), female (1.54), hypertension (-0.55), statin (0.87), and family history of stroke (0.71). The significant factors (odds ratios) in recanalization after 1 year of coil embolization were paroxetine (0.21), complete embolization (0.26), ruptured aneurysm (3.95), and size (1.14). Conclusions: This retrospective study suggests that P2X4 inhibitors including paroxetine may be clinically applicable as agents to inhibit the growth of unruptured cerebral aneurysms and recanalization after 1 year of aneurysm coil embolization. The use of reimbursement information may be useful when collecting very rare cases.
