Abstract

The management of tandem extracranial internal carotid artery and intracranial large vessel occlusion during endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) for acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been under-investigated. We sought to investigate outcomes of AIS patients with tandem occlusion (TO) treated with carotid artery stenting (CAS) compared to those not treated with CAS (no-CAS) during EVT.We performed a cohort study using data from AIS patients enrolled in the Italian Registry of Endovascular Treatment in Acute Stroke. Outcomes were 3 months' mortality, functional outcome, complete and successful recanalization, any intracranial hemorrhage, parenchymal hematoma and symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage.Among 466 AIS patients with TO, CAS patients were 122 and no-CAS patients were 226 (118 excluded). After adjustment for unbalanced variables, CAS was associated with a lower rate of 3 months' mortality (OR 0.407, 95% CI 0.171-0.969, p = 0.042). After adjustment for pre-defined variables, CAS was associated with a lower rate of 3 months' mortality (aOR 0.430, 95% CI 0.187-0.989, p = 0.047) and a higher rate of complete recanalization (aOR 1.986, 95% CI 1.121-3.518, p = 0.019), successful recanalization (aOR 2.433, 95% CI 1.263-4.686, p = 0.008) and parenchymal hematoma (aOR 2.876, 95% CI 1.173-7.050, p = 0.021). CAS was associated with lower 3 months mortality (OR 0.373, 95% CI 0.141-0.982, p = 0.046) and higher rates of successful recanalization (OR 2.082, 95% CI 1.099-3.942, p = 0.024) after adjustment for variables associated with 3 months' mortality and successful recanalization, respectively.Among AIS patients with TO, CAS during EVT was associated with a higher rate of successful reperfusion and a lower rate of 3 months' mortality.

Abstract

Background and Purpose— The effect of obesity on the risk of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) may depend on the pathophysiology of vessel damage. To further address this issue, we investigated and quantified the correlations between obesity and obesity-related conditions in the causal pathways leading to ICH. Methods— A total of 777 ICH cases ≥55 years of age (287 lobar ICH and 490 deep ICH) were consecutively enrolled as part of the Multicenter Study on Cerebral Hemorrhage in Italy and compared with 2083 control subjects by a multivariate path analysis model. Separate analyses were conducted for deep and lobar ICH. Results— Obesity was not independently associated with an increased risk of lobar ICH (odds ratio [OR], 0.76; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.58–1.01) or deep ICH (OR, 1.18; 95% CI, 0.95–1.45) when compared with control subjects. The path analysis confirmed the nonsignificant total effect of obesity on the risk of lobar ICH (OR, 0.77; 95% CI, 0.58–1.02) but demonstrated a significant indirect effect on the risk of deep ICH (OR, 1.28; 95% CI, 1.03–1.57), mostly determined by hypertension (OR, 1.07; 95% CI, 1.04–1.11) and diabetes mellitus (OR, 1.04; 95% CI, 1.01–1.07). Obesity was also associated with an increased risk of deep ICH when compared with lobar ICH (OR, 1.62; 95% CI, 1.14–2.31). Conclusions— Obesity increases the risk of deep ICH, mostly through an indirect effect on hypertension and other intermediate obesity-related comorbidities, but has no major influence on the risk of lobar ICH. This supports the hypothesis of different, vessel-specific, biological mechanisms underlying the relationship between obesity and cerebral hemorrhage.

Abstract

Latency differences (>0.5 ms) of median and ulnar sensory action potentials (mSAP and uSAP) at the wrist evoked by ring finger stimulation are considered a sensitive and specific test for diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). In this study, we aimed to assess the practical usefulness of the ring finger test (RFT) in routine electromyography (EMG) examinations. We investigated 2 series of patients: in the first prospective series we considered 300 hands affected by only mild CTS; in the second series we examined retrospectively the EMG charts of 961 hands affected only by CTS but not selected for severity or duration of symptoms. In the first series we found pathological RFT scores in 87% of cases, and pathological RFT or mSAP latency results in 92%. In the second series, pathological RFT scores were found only in 55% of cases, while in 20% where mSAP failed, a volume conducted uSAP had been erroneously interpreted as arising from the median nerve. RFT sensitivity tested in routine EMG examinations of unselected hands affected by CTS drops considerably. Fingers innervated by one only nerve, such as the index and the little fingers, must also be investigated to increase the diagnostic value of RFT.

Abstract

Fibrin(ogen) degradation product (FDP) and D-dimer levels were evaluated in 168 liver cirrhosis (LC) patients without evidence of bleeding. Eighty-two (48%) had FDP higher than 10 micrograms/ml; only 43 of them had a concomitant increase of D-dimer. These alterations were more frequent in older and decompensated patients and correlated to the Child-Turcotte score. In the patients with elevated FDP and/or D-dimer levels the mean values of platelets, prothrombin activity and fibrinogen were not significantly different from those of the other patients and remained fairly stable over the period of the study. Finally, an increase of FDP is frequent in LC and this may suggest a diagnosis of disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC), but a concomitant increase of D-dimer is rarely detectable, thus excluding this diagnosis. Moreover, even in the cases with increased levels of D-dimer the presence of clinical or laboratory evidence of a consumption coagulopathy, expression of a manifest DIC, seems to be unusual.

Abstract

The recent development of the duplex-Doppler technique, which combined real-time US with pulsed Doppler flowmetry, has allowed the flowmetric hemodynamic study of large abdominal vessels. As yet, however, both accuracy and possible applications of this method in the study of portal hypertension have not been fully investigated. This study was aimed at assessing whether or not the combined use of Doppler flowmetry and bidimensional US is able to detect portal hypertension in patients with liver cirrhosis (LC), and could therefore represent a valid alternative to endoscopic, angiographic, and direct pressure measurement techniques. Twenty-six patients with LC and 25 control patients were studied with a strictly standardized method; portal hypertension was detected in the patients with LC by EGDS and laparoscopy. The results demonstrated pulsed duplex-Doppler US to be able to detect portal hypertension in 92.4% of LC patients, with 2 false negatives only (7.6%). The difference in the flowmetric data of normal and LC patients was highly significant (p less than 0.001 Student's t test). In conclusion, duplex-Doppler US can be considered as a valid technique to detect portal hypertension in LC patients, and can thus be used as an alternative to more invasive techniques of general use in clinics.
