Abstract

Background and Purpose: The influence of prior antiplatelet therapy (APT) uses on the outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with endovascular therapy is unclear. We compared procedural and clinical outcomes of endovascular therapy in patients on APT or not before stroke onset. Methods: We analyzed 2 groups from the ongoing prospective multicenter Endovascular Treatment in Ischemic Stroke registry in France: patients on prior APT (APT+) and patients without prior APT (APT−) treated by endovascular therapy, with and without intravenous thrombolysis. Multilevel mixed-effects logistic models including center as random effect were used to compare angiographic (rates of reperfusion at the end of procedure, procedural complications) and clinical (favorable and excellent outcome, 90-day all-cause mortality, and hemorrhagic complications) outcomes according to APT subgroups. Comparisons were adjusted for prespecified confounders (age, admission National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, intravenous thrombolysis, and time from onset to puncture), as well as for meaningful baseline between-group differences. Results: A total of 2939 patients were analyzed, of whom 877 (29.8%) were on prior APT. Patients with prior APT were older, had more frequent vascular risk factors, cardioembolic stroke mechanism, and prestroke disability. Rates of complete reperfusion (37.9% in the APT− group versus 42.7 % in the APT+ group; aOR, 1.09 [95% CI, 0.88–1.34]; P =0.41) and periprocedural complication (16.9% versus 13.3%; aOR, 0.90 [95% CI, 0.7–1.2]; P =0.66) did not differ between the two groups. Symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage (aOR, 0.93 [95% CI, 0.63–1.37]; P =0.73), 3 months favorable clinical outcome (modified Rankin Scale score of 0–2; aOR, 0.98 [95% CI, 0.77–1.25]; P =0.89), and mortality (aOR, 0.95 [95% CI, 0.72–1.26]; P =0.76) at 90 days did not differ between the groups. Conclusions: Prior APT does not influence angiographic and functional outcomes following endovascular therapy and should not be taken into account for acute revascularization strategies.

Abstract

Background and Purpose: Hypotension during endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke is associated with worse functional outcomes (FO). Given its important role in intracranial hemodynamics, we investigated whether hypotension during endovascular therapy had the same effect on FO according to the posterior communicating artery (PComA) patency. Methods: We performed a post hoc analysis of the ASTER trial (Contact Aspiration Versus Stent Retriever for Successful Revascularization). Patients were included if they had middle cerebral artery occlusions. Primary outcome was favorable FO, defined by a modified Rankin Scale scores between 0 and 2 at 3 months. Results: One hundred forty-eight patients with middle cerebral artery occlusion were included. In patients with no PComA, an increase in minimum mean arterial pressure was positively associated with favorable FO (odds ratio per 10 mm Hg increase, 1.59 [95%CI, 1.11–2.25]; P =0.010), whereas no association was found in patients with a PComA (odds ratio, 0.77 [95% CI, 0.54–1.08]; P =0.12). Patients with no PComA and longer cumulative time with mean arterial pressure P =0.010) and 0.74 (95% CI, 0.60–0.91; P =0.003), but not in patients with a PComA. Conclusions: Hypotension during endovascular therapy for middle cerebral artery occlusion is consistently associated with worse FO in patients with no PComA but not in those with a PComA.

Abstract

Introduction: Pramipexole (PRA), ropinirole (ROP) and rotigotine (ROT) are non-ergoline dopaminergic agonists (DAs) used to treat Parkinson's disease (PD). Clinical pharmacokinetics of DAs is poorly characterized in PD. The main purpose of our study was to investigate the effect of dose, age and sex on steady-state plasma concentrations of DAs in real life PD patients on chronic DAs therapy. Methods: The study was single center, open and prospective. Blood samples for measurement of DAs plasma concentrations were drawn in the morning, at a median 18-h distance from the last DA dose. Results: Ninety-one patients treated with PRA, 50 with ROP and 37 with ROT were enrolled in the study. Plasma concentration of DAs significantly correlated with weight-adjusted daily dose in all subgroups, although at a given dose, matched plasma concentrations highly varied among patients. Median PRA plasma concentration-to-daily dose ratio (C/D) [(ng/mL)/(mg/kg/d)] was 68% higher in patients >65 years than ≤65 years (158 vs 94, p < 0.001), while was not affected by age in ROP and ROT subgroups. No sex-mediated differences in C/D ratios were observed in any group. Conclusion: These are the first observations on DAs pharmacokinetics in PD patients’ everyday clinical practice. Of relevance, patients over 65yrs may require about one third of PRA dose compared to under 65yrs to achieve the same plasma concentration. Due to the high intersubject variability in plasma concentrations at the same dosage, we speculate that monitoring of plasma DAs might be helpful in the individualization of treatment in selected patients.

Abstract

International audience; Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether individual operator characteristics have an impact on reperfusion and procedural complication rates.Background: Mechanical thrombectomy (MT) is a Level IA treatment in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. The operator's effect has been found to be an independent predictor for clinical outcome and technical performance in interventional cardiology.Methods: From the ETIS (Endovascular Treatment in Ischemic Stroke) study, a prospective, multicenter, observational real-world MT registry, the authors included all AIS patients consecutively treated by MT between January 2012 and March 2017 in 3 high-volume comprehensive stroke centers by 19 operators. We assessed the effect of individual operator characteristics on successful reperfusion, defined as modified Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction 2b/3 at the end of MT, and procedural complications using multivariable hierarchical logistic regression models.Results: A total of 1,541 patients with anterior and posterior AIS were enrolled (mean age 67 years; median NIHSS 16). There was a significant operator effect on successful reperfusion, with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.036 (p = 0.046), but not on complications (intraclass correlation coefficient = 0). There was a dose-response relationship between annual operator volume and successful reperfusion rate (p = 0.003) with an adjusted odds ratio for successful reperfusion equal to 2.52 (95% confidence interval: 1.37 to 4.64) for patients treated by an operator with an annual volume ≥40 MT/year compared with those treated by an operator with

Abstract

Background and Purpose: Acute ischemic stroke and large vessel occlusion can be concurrent with the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. Outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy (MT) for large vessel occlusion in patients with COVID-19 are substantially unknown. Our aim was to study early outcomes after MT in patients with COVID-19. Methods: Multicenter, European, cohort study involving 34 stroke centers in France, Italy, Spain, and Belgium. Data were collected between March 1, 2020 and May 5, 2020. Consecutive laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 cases with large vessel occlusion, who were treated with MT, were included. Primary investigated outcome: 30-day mortality. Secondary outcomes: early neurological improvement (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale improvement ≥8 points or 24 hours National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale 0–1), successful reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction grade ≥2b), and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage. Results: We evaluated 93 patients with COVID-19 with large vessel occlusion who underwent MT (median age, 71 years [interquartile range, 59–79]; 63 men [67.7%]). Median pretreatment National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score were 17 (interquartile range, 11–21) and 8 (interquartile range, 7–9), respectively. Anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke represented 93.5% of cases. The rate modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction 2b to 3 was 79.6% (74 patients [95% CI, 71.3–87.8]). Thirty-day mortality was 29% (27 patients [95% CI, 20–39.4]). Early neurological improvement was 19.5% (17 patients [95% CI, 11.8–29.5]), and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage was 5.4% (5 patients [95% CI, 1.7–12.1]). Patients who died at 30 days exhibited significantly lower lymphocyte count, higher levels of aspartate, and LDH (lactate dehydrogenase). After adjustment for age, initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score, and successful reperfusion, these biological markers remained associated with increased odds of 30-day mortality (adjusted odds ratio of 2.70 [95% CI, 1.21–5.98] per SD-log decrease in lymphocyte count, 2.66 [95% CI, 1.22–5.77] per SD-log increase in aspartate, and 4.30 [95% CI, 1.43–12.91] per SD-log increase in LDH). Conclusions: The 29% rate of 30-day mortality after MT among patients with COVID-19 is not negligible. Abnormalities of lymphocyte count, LDH and aspartate may depict a patient’s profiles with poorer outcomes after MT. Registration: URL: https://www.clinicaltrials.gov .

Abstract

Background and purpose Flow diversion is increasingly used for endovascular treatment of distal intracranial aneurysms and has led to the development of small diameter flow diverters such as p48-MW (phenox, Bochum, Germany). Use of flow diverters is limited, however, as patients require dual antiplatelet treatment to avoid thromboembolic complications. Hydrophilic Polymer Coating was developed to reduce platelet aggregation on the p48-MW (p48-MW-HPC). This study reports preliminary experience with p48-MW-HPC in aneurysm treatment in two centers. Materials and methods Patients with ruptured, unruptured, and recanalized aneurysms treated with p48-MW-HPC were prospectively included and retrospectively analyzed for safety and efficacy. Safety was evaluated by analyzing intra- and postoperative complications as well as thromboembolic events depicted by DWI in the 72 h post-procedure. Efficacy was evaluated at 6 months based on aneurysm occlusion. Results From April 2019 to May 2020, 28 patients aged 25–82 years with 29 aneurysms were treated. Two thromboembolic events (7.1%) were reported with good clinical outcome. Final morbidity and mortality were both 0.0%. Post-operative DWI-MRI was depicting lesions in 70.0% of patients. Short-term (6 months) anatomical results were complete aneurysm occlusion in 87.0% of aneurysms, neck remnant in 8.7%, and aneurysm remnant in 4.3%. Conclusion This preliminary clinical evaluation conducted in a relatively small sample size shows high feasibility (100.0%) of p48-MW-HPC aneurysm treatment, without morbidity or mortality, and high efficacy (complete occlusion in 90.0%). Additional larger comparative studies are needed to confirm these results and optimize perioperative antiplatelet treatment.

Abstract

Background and Purpose: Although the efficacy of endovascular treatment (EVT) in patients with anterior circulation ischemic stroke (AIS) is well documented, early neurological deterioration after EVT remains a serious issue associated with poor outcome. Besides obvious causes, such as lack of reperfusion, procedural complications, or parenchymal hemorrhage, early neurological deterioration may remain unexplained (UnEND). Our aim was to investigate predictors of UnEND after EVT in patients with AIS. Methods: Patients who underwent EVT for AIS, with an initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score >5, Alberta Stroke Program Early CT Score ≥6, and included in a multicenter prospective observational registry were analyzed. Predictors of UnEND, defined as ≥4-point increase in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score between baseline and day 1 after EVT, were determined via center-adjusted analyses. Results: Among the 1925 included in the analysis, 128 UnEND (6.6%) were recorded. In multivariate analysis, predictors of UnEND were diabetes mellitus (odds ratio [OR], 2.17 [95% CI, 1.32–3.56]), prestroke modified Rankin Scale score ≥2 (OR, 2.22 [95% CI, 1.09–4.55]), general anesthesia (OR, 2.55 [95% CI, 1.51–4.30]), admission systolic blood pressure (OR, 1.10 [95% CI, 1.01–1.20]), age (OR, 1.38 [95% CI, 1.14–1.67]), number of passes (OR, 1.16 [95% CI, 1.04–1.28]), direct admission or not to a comprehensive stroke center (OR, 0.49 [95% CI, 0.30–0.81]), and initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score (OR, 0.65 [95% CI, 0.52–0.81]). Conclusions: Severely impaired AIS patients with nonmodifiable factors are more likely to develop UnEND. Some modifiable predictors of UnEND such as the number of EVT passes could be the object of improvement in AIS management.

Abstract

BackgroundThe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic would have particularly affected acute stroke care. However, its impact is clearly inherent to the local stroke network conditions. We aimed to assess the impact of COVID-19 pandemic on acute stroke care in the Lyon comprehensive stroke center during this period.MethodsWe conducted a prospective data collection of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) treated with intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and/or mechanical thrombectomy (MT) during the COVID-19 period (from 29/02/2020 to 10/05/2020) and a control period (from 29/02/2019 to 10/05/2019). The volume of reperfusion therapies and pre and intra-hospital delays were compared during both periods.ResultsA total of 208 patients were included. The volume of IVT significantly decreased during the COVID-period (55 (54.5%) vs 74 (69.2%); p=0.03) and was mainly due to time delay among patients treated with MT. The volume of MT remains stable over the two periods (72 (71.3%) vs 65 (60.8%); p=0.14) but the door-to-groin puncture time increased in patients transferred for MT (237 [187-339] vs 210 [163-260]; pConclusionsOur study showed a decrease of the volume of IVT, whereas the volume of MT remained stable although intra-hospital delays increased for transferred patients during the COVID-19 pandemic. These results contrast in part with the national surveys and suggest that the impact of the pandemic may depend on local stroke care networks.

Abstract

Background and Purpose: The efficiency of prehospital care chain response and the adequacy of hospital resources are challenged amid the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreak, with suspected consequences for patients with ischemic stroke eligible for mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Methods: We conducted a prospective national-level data collection of patients treated with MT, ranging 45 days across epidemic containment measures instatement, and of patients treated during the same calendar period in 2019. The primary end point was the variation of patients receiving MT during the epidemic period. Secondary end points included care delays between onset, imaging, and groin puncture. To analyze the primary end point, we used a Poisson regression model. We then analyzed the correlation between the number of MTs and the number of COVID-19 cases hospitalizations, using the Pearson correlation coefficient (compared with the null value). Results: A total of 1513 patients were included at 32 centers, in all French administrative regions. There was a 21% significant decrease (0.79; [95%CI, 0.76–0.82]; P P P R 2 −0.51; P =0.04). Patients treated during the COVID outbreak were less likely to receive intravenous thrombolysis and to have unwitnessed strokes (both P Conclusions: Our study showed a significant decrease in patients treated with MTs during the first stages of the COVID epidemic in France and alarming indicators of lengthened care delays. These findings prompt immediate consideration of local and regional stroke networks preparedness in the varying contexts of COVID-19 pandemic evolution.

Abstract

BACKGROUND Brivaracetam is an antiepileptic drug used as an add-on therapy for partial-onset seizures in subjects aged 4 years and older. Owing to potential drug interactions and intersubject variability in plasma concentrations, therapeutic monitoring for brivaracetam may be useful. The aim of this study was to develop a simplified method for measuring brivaracetam plasma concentrations applicable to therapeutic drug monitoring in epilepsy. METHODS An ultra high-pressure liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed and validated according to current guidelines for bioanalytical methods. Sample preparation (100 µL) involved only a simple precipitation step by acetonitrile. Brivaracetam-d7 was used as internal standard. The chromatographic analysis was performed by a Synergi Fusion column using 0.1% formic acid in water/acetonitrile as a binary gradient mobile phase, at a flow rate of 0.3 mL/min. Both brivaracetam and the internal standard eluted at 1.01 minutes. This method was applied to measure trough and 1-hour postmorning dose brivaracetam plasma concentrations of 11 patients with epilepsy. RESULTS The method was validated over a concentration range of 0.10-10 mcg/mL. The mean recovery was 95%. Both intra- and inter-assay imprecision and inaccuracy were

Abstract

ADCA-DN and HSN-IE are rare neurodegenerative syndromes caused by dominant mutations in the replication foci targeting sequence (RFTS) of the DNA methyltransferase 1 (DNMT1) gene. Both phenotypes resemble mitochondrial disorders, and mitochondrial dysfunction was first observed in ADCA-DN. To explore mitochondrial involvement, we studied the effects of DNMT1 mutations in fibroblasts from four ADCA-DN and two HSN-IE patients. We documented impaired activity of purified DNMT1 mutant proteins, which in fibroblasts results in increased DNMT1 amount. We demonstrated that DNMT1 is not localized within mitochondria, but it is associated with the mitochondrial outer membrane. Concordantly, mitochondrial DNA failed to show meaningful CpG methylation. Strikingly, we found activated mitobiogenesis and OXPHOS with significant increase of H2O2, sharply contrasting with a reduced ATP content. Metabolomics profiling of mutant cells highlighted purine, arginine/urea cycle and glutamate metabolisms as the most consistently altered pathways, similar to primary mitochondrial diseases. The most severe mutations showed activation of energy shortage AMPK-dependent sensing, leading to mTORC1 inhibition. We propose that DNMT1 RFTS mutations deregulate metabolism lowering ATP levels, as a result of increased purine catabolism and urea cycle pathways. This is associated with a paradoxical mitochondrial hyper-function and increased oxidative stress, possibly resulting in neurodegeneration in non-dividing cells.

Abstract

We present a simple and fast high-performance liquid chromatography method with fluorescence detection for the determination of the antiepileptic drug perampanel in human plasma. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Kinetex PFP (100 × 2.6 mm, 4.6 µm) column, using a mobile phase of sodium acetate 0.03 M pH 3.7 and acetonitrile (40/60, v/v), at a flow rate of 0.8 mL/min. Total chromatography time for each run was 5 min. Sample preparation (250 µL) involved only one simple precipitation step by acetonitrile spiked with mirtazapine as internal standard. The method was validated over a concentration range of 20–1000 ng/mL and successfully applied to measure perampanel concentrations in plasma samples obtained from patients with epilepsy. This assay combines the high specificity of fluorescence detection with a very simple and fast sample pretreatment and can offer real advantages over existing methods in terms of simplicity and transferability to a therapeutic drug monitoring setting., Highlights • A very simple assay for the determination of perampanel in human plasma is proposed. • The analysis is based on HPLC-F coupled with an only deproteinization step. • No time consuming liquid-liquid extractions and evaporations are required. • This assay significantly simplifies existing ones in terms of transferability to TDM.

Abstract

Background and Purpose— Proximal large vessel occlusion (LVO) is present in up to 30% of minor strokes. The effectiveness of mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in the subgroup of minor stroke with LVO in the anterior circulation is still open to debate. Data about MT in this subgroup of patients are sparse, and their optimal management has not yet been defined. The purpose of this multicenter cohort study was to evaluate the effectiveness of MT in patients experiencing acute ischemic stroke (AIS) because of LVO in the anterior circulation, presenting with minor-to-mild stroke symptoms (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score of Methods— Multicenter cohort study involving 4 comprehensive stroke centers having 2 therapeutic approaches (urgent thrombectomy associated with best medical treatment [BMT] versus BMT first and MT if worsening occurs) about management of patients with minor and mild acute ischemic stroke harboring LVO in the anterior circulation. An intention-to-treat analysis was conducted. The primary end point was the rate of excellent outcome defined as the achievement of a modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 1 at 3 months. Results— Three hundred one patients were included, 170 with urgent MT associated with BMT, and 131 with BMT alone as first-line treatment. Patients treated with MT were younger, more often received intravenous thrombolysis, and had shorter time to imaging. Twenty-four patients (18.0%) in the medical group had rescue MT because of neurological worsening. Overall, excellent outcome was achieved in 64.5% of patients, with no difference between the 2 groups. Stratified analysis according to key subgroups did not find heterogeneity in the treatment effect size. Conclusions— Minor-to-mild stroke patients with LVO achieved excellent and favorable functional outcomes at 3 months in similar proportions between urgent MT versus delayed MT associated with BMT. There is thus an urgent need for randomized trials to define the effectiveness of MT in this patient subgroup.

Abstract

We prospectively examined the effect of antiepileptic (AED) cotherapy on steady state plasma concentrations of perampanel (PMP) in epileptic patients. We classified AEDs as strong enzyme inducers (carbamazepine, phenobarbital, phenytoin, oxcarbazepine), not strong enzyme inducers/not inhibitors (levetiracetam, lamotrigine, topiramate, rufinamide, lacosamide, zonisamide, clobazam), and enzyme inhibitors (valproic acid [VPA]). The main outcome was the comparison of PMP plasma concentration to weight-adjusted dose ratio (C/D; [μg/mL]/mg kg-1 d-1 ) among comedication subgroups. From 79 patients (42 females, 37 males) aged (mean ± standard deviation) 33 ± 13 years (range = 12-66 years), 114 plasma samples were collected. Twenty-eight patients (44 samples) were cotreated with enzyme inducers (group A), 21 (27 samples) with not strong enzyme inducers/not inhibitors (group B), 21 (31 samples) with not strong enzyme inducers/not inhibitors + VPA (group C), and 9 (12 samples) with enzyme inducers + VPA (group D).

Abstract

Background and Purpose Anterior communicating artery (AcomA) aneurysms with a wide neck are often not feasible for endovascular coiling. Emerging devices for neck protection, such as the pCONus stent, are promising for endovascular treatment of challenging intracranial aneurysms. We report the preliminary results with pCONus in the treatment of wide-neck AcomA aneurysms. Methods All consecutive patients harboring AcomA aneurysms treated with pCONus in 3 European centers were retrospectively reviewed. Results Thirty-six patients (mean age, 61 years) harboring 36 saccular AcomA aneurysms (mean dome size, 7.3 mm; mean neck size, 5.4 mm) were included, of which 7 were treated in the setting of subarachnoid hemorrhage. A procedural angiographic complication was reported in 3 patients without clinical impact at 3 months. Five patients presented a postoperative neurological deficit without angiographic complication. Procedure-related permanent morbidity and mortality rates were 11% (3/33) and 0 at 3 months, respectively. Postoperative angiographic results showed a complete aneurysm occlusion in 56% (20/36), a neck remnant in 25% (9/36), and an aneurysm remnant in 19% (7/36) of cases. Four patients were retreated after early angiographic follow-up (mean, 3.2 months). Twenty-two patients were followed (mean, 12.9 months), and a complete aneurysm occlusion was observed in 59% of patients (13/22), and a neck remnant in 41% (9/22). There was no in-stent stenosis or jailed branch occlusion. Recanalization rate was 9%. Conclusions The pCONus device allows endovascular coiling of wide-necked AcomA aneurysms.

Abstract

Background/Objective PulseRider is a new endovascular stent dedicated to treat bifurcation intracranial aneurysms with a wide neck. Our purpose was to evaluate 6-month clinical and anatomic results of the device when used to facilitate endovascular coiling of wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms. Methods Unruptured intracranial aneurysms coiled with PulseRider, in 6 European centers and 1 U.S. center, were retrospectively reviewed from June 2014 to October 2015. Immediate and 6-month results were evaluated independently by using the Raymond classification scale. Recanalization was defined as worsening, and progressive thrombosis was defined as improvement on the Raymond scale. Results Nineteen patients (10 women, 9 men; mean age, 63 years) harboring 19 bifurcation aneurysms (mean dome size, 8.8 mm; mean neck size, 5.8 mm) were included. Immediate angiographic outcome showed 11 complete aneurysm occlusions, 6 neck remnants, and 2 residual aneurysms. Follow-up at 6 months, obtained in all patients, included 12 complete aneurysm occlusions (63.1%), 6 neck remnants (31.6%), and 1 residual aneurysm (5.3%). Adequate occlusion (defined as complete occlusion and neck remnant combined) was observed in 94.7%. Progressive thrombosis was observed in 2 cases (10.6%) and recanalization in 1 case (5.3%). There was no in-stent stenosis or jailed branch occlusion. No bleeding was observed during the follow-up period. Permanent morbidity rate was 5.3% (1/19), and the mortality rate was 0% at 6 months. Conclusions The PulseRider allows endovascular treatment of wide-neck bifurcation intracranial aneurysms. Larger series are needed to confirm our preliminary results.

Abstract

Background: In population-based studies, patients presenting with minor or mild stroke symptoms represent about two-thirds of stroke patients, and almost one-third of these patients are unable to ambulate independently at the time of discharge. Although mechanical thrombectomy (MT) has become the standard of care for acute ischaemic stroke with proximal large vessel occlusion (LVO) in the anterior circulation, the management of patients harbouring proximal occlusion and minor-to-mild stroke symptoms has not yet been determined by recent trials. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of reperfusion on clinical outcome in low National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) patients treated with MT. Methods: We analysed 138 consecutive patients with acute LVO of the anterior circulation (middle cerebral artery M1 or M2 segment, internal carotid artery or tandem occlusion) with NIHSS Results: Successful reperfusion was achieved in 81.2% of patients (TICI 2B, n = 47; TICI 3, n = 65). Excellent outcome (mRs 0-1) was achieved in 69 patients (65.0%) and favourable outcome (mRs ≤2) in 108 (78.3%). Death occurred in 7 (5.1%). Excellent outcome increased with reperfusion grades, with a rate of 34.6% in patients with failed/poor reperfusion, 61.7% in patients with TICI 2B reperfusion, and 78.5% in patients with TICI 3 reperfusion (p < 0.001). In multivariate analysis adjusted for patient characteristics associated with excellent outcome, the reperfusion grade remained significantly associated with an increase in excellent outcome; the OR (95% CI) was 3.09 (1.06-9.03) for TICI 2B and 6.66 (2.27-19.48) for TICI 3, using the failed/poor reperfusion grade as reference. Similar results were found regarding favourable outcome (90-day mRs 0-2) or overall mRS distribution (shift analysis). Conclusion: Successful reperfusion is strongly associated with better functional outcome among patients with proximal LVO in the anterior circulation and minor-to-mild stroke symptoms. Randomized controlled studies are mandatory to assess the benefit of MT compared with optimal medical management in this subset of patients.

Abstract

A volumetric microsampling (VAMS) device (20 μl) was evaluated and validated for the analysis of γ-hydroxybutyric acid (GHB) in venous blood using a simple ultra-high-pressure liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method. GHB was extracted from VAMS device by acetonitrile, after a re-hydration step in a temperature-controlled ultrasonic bath at 60°C for 10 min. Chromatographic analysis was carried out on a Kinetex C18 column using 0.1% formic acid in water and acetonitrile as binary gradient mobile phase (from 5 to 95% of acetonitrile from 1 to 2.5 min) at a flow rate of 0.3 ml/min. The VAMS method was fully validated according to current guidelines with satisfactory results in terms of linearity, selectivity, precision, absolute recovery, matrix effect and stability. The linearity was determined from 0.5 to 200 μg/ml and the lower limit of quantitation was 0.5 μg/ml. The novel VAMS-UHPLC-MS/MS method was successfully compared with plasma-based method in a GHB-treated patient as a proof of concept.

Abstract

Objectives The aim was to evaluate plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) nimodipine concentrations in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage and their correlation with clinical outcome. Methods Nimodipine infusion was started at 1 mg/h and increased up to 2 mg/h and continued up to 21 days in surviving patients. Arterial and CSF samples were collected at least after 24 hours of stable nimodipine dosing. Delayed cerebral ischemia and vasospasm were documented by new neurological deficits and neuroimaging. The clinical outcome was assessed at 9 months by the modified Rankin scale. Results Twenty-three patients were enrolled. Nimodipine dose was 13 to 38 μg/kg per hour. Nimodipine arterial and CSF concentrations were 24.9 to 71.8 ng/mL and 37 to 530 pg/mL, respectively. Dose did not correlate with arterial or CSF concentrations. Arterial concentrations did not correlate with corresponding CSF concentrations. Doses and arterial concentrations did not correlate with the clinical outcome and were not associated with the occurrence of delayed cerebral ischemia. However, patients with no significant disability after 9 months of hemorrhage showed significantly higher CSF nimodipine concentrations (P = 0.015) and CSF-to-plasma ratios (P = 0.011) compared with patients who showed some degree of disability or who died. Conclusions Cerebrospinal fluid nimodipine concentrations measured during hospital drug infusion showed a correlation with long-term clinical outcome in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. These very preliminary data suggest that CSF concentrations monitoring may have some value in managing these patients.

Abstract

Background CT perfusion (CTP) and diffusion or perfusion MRI might assist patient selection for endovascular thrombectomy. We aimed to establish whether imaging assessments of irreversibly injured ischaemic core and potentially salvageable penumbra volumes were associated with functional outcome and whether they interacted with the treatment effect of endovascular thrombectomy on functional outcome.Methods In this systematic review and meta-analysis, the HERMES collaboration pooled patient-level data from all randomised controlled trials that compared endovascular thrombectomy (predominantly using stent retrievers) with standard medical therapy in patients with anterior circulation ischaemic stroke, published in PubMed from Jan 1,2010, to May 31, 2017. The primary endpoint was functional outcome, assessed by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) at 90 days after stroke. Ischaemic core was estimated, before treatment with either endovascular thrombectomy or standard medical therapy, by CTP as relative cerebral blood flow less than 30% of normal brain blood flow or by MRI as an apparent diffusion coefficient less than 620 mu m(2)/s. Critically hypoperfused tissue was estimated as the volume of tissue with a CTP time to maximum longer than 6 s. Mismatch volume (ie, the estimated penumbral volume) was calculated as critically hypoperfused tissue volume minus ischaemic core volume. The association of ischaemic core and penumbral volumes with 90-day mRS score was analysed with multivariable logistic regression (functional independence, defined as mRS score 0-2) and ordinal logistic regression (functional improvement by at least one mRS category) in all patients and in a subset of those with more than 50% endovascular reperfusion, adjusted for baseline prognostic variables. The meta-analysis was prospectively designed by the HERMES executive committee, but not registered.Findings We identified seven studies with 1764 patients, all of which were included in the meta-analysis. CTP was available and assessable for 591 (34%) patients and diffusion MRI for 309 (18%) patients. Functional independence was worse in patients who had CTP versus those who had diffusion MRI, after adjustment for ischaemic core volume (odds ratio [OR] 0.47 [95% CI 0.30-0.72], p=0.0007), so the imaging modalities were not pooled. Increasing ischaemic core volume was associated with reduced likelihood of functional independence (CTP OR 0.77 [0.69-0.86] per 10 mL, p(interaction)=0.29; diffusion MRI OR 0.87 [0.81-0.94] per 10 mL, p(interaction)=0.94). Mismatch volume, examined only in the CTP group because of the small numbers of patients who had perfusion MRI, was not associated with either functional independence or functional improvement. In patients with CTP with more than 50% endovascular reperfusion (n=186), age, ischaemic core volume, and imaging-to-reperfusion time were independently associated with functional improvement. Risk of bias between studies was generally low.Interpretation Estimated ischaemic core volume was independently associated with functional independence and functional improvement but did not modify the treatment benefit of endovascular thrombectomy over standard medical therapy for improved functional outcome. Combining ischaemic core volume with age and expected imagingto-reperfusion time will improve assessment of prognosis and might inform endovascular thrombectomy treatment decisions.

Abstract

We present a simple, fast and validated method for the determination of nimodipine in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage using ultra high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS). Plasma or CSF 250μL aliquots were pretreated with acetonitrile spiked with lacosamide as internal standard. The chromatographic separation was performed on a Fusion (3μm) 50×2.0mm I.D. column with gradient elution of 0.1% (v/v) formic acid in water and 0.1% (v/v) formic acid in acetonitrile at a flow rate of 0.35mL/min. The MS/MS ion transitions were 419.1→343 for nimodipine and 251.1→91 for the internal standard. The linearity was determined from 2.0 to 40.0ng/mL in plasma and 40.0-800.0pg/mL in CSF. The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) of nimodipine was 0.4ng/mL in plasma and 40pg/mL in CSF. The mean recovery for nimodipine was ≥75% in plasma and ≥90% in CSF at all three considered concentrations. Intra- and interassay precision and accuracy were ≤15% at all quality control concentrations in plasma and CSF. The method was applied to measure plasma and CSF concentrations of nimodipine in a series of patients with subarachnoid haemorrhage treated with intravenous nimodipine. The present procedure, omitting time-consuming liquid-liquid extraction and drying steps, is faster, simpler and cheaper than published LC-MS/MS analytical methods for nimodipine in plasma and the first validated one for nimodipine in CSF.

Abstract

Objectives The aim of this study was to identify the optimal endovascular approach in patients with acute stroke with tandem lesions. Background At present, there is no consensus about the ideal technical strategy for the endovascular treatment of patients with acute ischemic stroke with tandem lesions of the extracranial internal carotid artery (ICA) and intracranial cerebral arteries. Methods This was an international, multicenter registry with a total of 482 patients with acute ischemic stroke and tandem lesions. Patients were treated by intracranial thrombectomy as well as 1 of the following 4 strategies: 1) acute carotid artery stenting of the extracranial ICA with antithrombotic agents; 2) acute carotid artery stenting of the extracranial ICA without antithrombotic agents; 3) balloon angioplasty of the extracranial ICA; and 4) intracranial thrombectomy alone. The main outcome endpoints of the study were the degree of recanalization and the 90-day clinical outcome. The safety endpoints were symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage and all causes of mortality at 90 days. Results Using univariate analysis, the rates of successful reperfusion (modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction grades 2B and 3) and favorable clinical outcome after 90 days were significantly higher after acute carotid stenting with antithrombotic therapy and thrombectomy compared with the group with thrombectomy alone. After adjusting for confounding variables, acute stenting with antithrombotic therapy was independently associated with successful recanalization (odds ratio: 2.4; 95% confidence interval: 1.25 to 4.59; p = 0.008). The rates of symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage and 90-day mortality were comparable among all 4 treatment groups. Conclusions Acute stenting of the extracranial ICA with antithrombotic therapy in combination with intracranial thrombectomy is associated with higher recanalization rates in treatment of patients with acute stroke with tandem lesions.

Abstract

International audience; BACKGROUND: Onyx is important embolic material in the endovascular treatment of intracranial dural arteriovenous fistula (DAVF). However, its impact on DAVF occlusion rates, morbidity, mortality, and complication rates is not fully examined. OBJECTIVE: To improve understanding of safety and effectiveness profiles associated with transarterial endovascular treatment using Onyx for intracranial DAVF METHODS: We analyzed data from our prospective clinical registry and conducted a systematic review of all previous transarterial embolization studies using Onyx published between January 2005 and December 2015 in MEDLINE and EMBASE. RESULTS: In the prospective study, 41 transarterial procedures were performed in 33 consecutive patients harboring 36 DAVFs. Complete initial exclusion was obtained in 32 of 36 (88.9%) fistulas; 31 fistulas were followed up showing 4 (12.9%) recurrences. Procedure-related morbidity and mortality were 3% and 0%, respectively. The literature review identified 19 studies involving a total of 425 patients with 463 DAVFs. Meta-analysis, including our registry data, showed an initial complete occlusion rate of 82% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 74%, 88%; I-2, 70.6%), and recurrence rate at midterm of 2% (95% CI: 0%, 5%; I-2, 21.5%). Pooled postoperative neurological deficit, procedure-related morbidity, and mortality rates were 4% (95% CI: 2%, 6%; I-2, 0%), 3% (95% CI: 1%, 5%; I-2, 0%), and 0%, respectively. CONCLUSION: This meta-analysis suggests that transarterial embolization with Onyx is a safe treatment modality for DAVFs. Although Onyx showed a low recurrence rate at midterm, the long-term risk is poorly addressed in our study and should warrant a longer follow-up.

Abstract

Background and Purpose— Middle cerebral artery M2-segment occlusions represent an important subgroup of patients with acute stroke with large-vessel occlusion. The safety of mechanical thrombectomy, especially contact aspiration (CA), in such distal intracranial occlusions is still under debate. We compared reperfusion, adverse events, neurological recovery, and functional outcome of patients with isolated M2 occlusions according to the first-line strategy mechanical thrombectomy devices (CA versus stent retriever [SR]). Methods— This is a post hoc analysis of the ASTER trial (Contact Aspiration Versus Stent Retriever for Successful Revascularization). The primary outcome was successful reperfusion at the end of all endovascular procedures, defined as modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) scores 2b/3. Secondary outcomes were mTICI 2c/3 and mTICI 3, 90-day functional outcome, assessed with the modified Rankin Scale score. Safety outcomes included 90-day mortality and any symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage. Results— Seventy-nine patients were included: 48 were allocated to the CA group and 31 to the SR group. There were no significant differences between CA and SR groups in reperfusion after all endovascular procedures regarding mTICI 2b/3 (89.6% versus 83.9%; P =0.36), mTICI 2c/3 (54.2% versus 54.8%; P =0.90), and mTICI 3 (35.4% versus 41.9%; P =0.36) rates. There were no significant differences between CA and SR groups in 90-day modified Rankin Scale ≤2 rate (54.4% versus 50.0%; P =0.84), 24-hour change in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (mean difference, −3.9; 95% confidence interval, −7.9 to 0.01), and Alberta Stroke Program Early Computed Tomography score (mean difference, 0.9; 95% confidence interval, −0.1 to 2.0) scores. Safety parameters were well balanced between the 2 groups except for a higher 90-day mortality rate in the CA group (19.6% versus 3.3%; P =0.078). Conclusions— First-line mechanical thrombectomy with CA compared with SR did not result in an increased successful revascularization rate in patients with acute stroke with isolated M2 occlusion.

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: We aimed to assess the potential relationship between intrasubject 9-tetrahydrocannabinol/cannabidiol (THC/CBD) oromucosal spray plasma profiles and clinical effects elicited by subacute dosing in chronically treated patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). METHODS: The study design was pilot, single center, open, and prospective. The patients were challenged with a morning test dose of 2 THC/CBD sprays at a 15-minute interval. Venous blood samples were collected before the first spray administration and every 30 minutes after the second spray, until 240 minutes postdosing. Patients rated their spasticity by the Numerical Rating Scale (NRS) simultaneously with blood drawings. Postural and motor tests were performed before the first spray and 90 and 180 minutes thereafter. RESULTS: Twelve patients were recruited. Peak plasma concentrations of THC/CBD largely varied among patients, from 0.60 to 13.29 ng/mL for THC and 0.55 to 11.93 ng/mL for CBD. Time to peak plasma concentrations ranged from 150 to 240 minutes for THC and 90 to 240 minutes for CBD. Patients' NRS serial scores decreased after dosing, from a median value of 6 to 3.5 (P < 0.001). A significant inverse correlation was observed between median intrasubject repeated NRS scores and corresponding median values of both THC (P < 0.01) and CBD (P < 0.002) plasma concentrations. No significant effect of cannabinoids dosing could be appreciated according to posturographic and motor tests. CONCLUSIONS: Our kinetic dynamic findings from THC/CBD oromucosal spray are the first obtained in real MS patients. Although preliminary, they suggest that subacute dosing might elicit a subjective clinically significant effect on MS-related spasticity, paralleling cannabinoids measurable plasma concentrations.

Abstract

Background and Purpose— Although successful reperfusion is usually defined as a modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction (mTICI) 2B or 3 at the end of the procedure, studies have shown that mTICI 2B patients had poorer functional outcomes than TICI 3 patients. An mTICI 2C category has been recently introduced for patients with near-complete perfusion except for slow flow in a few distal cortical vessels or presence of small distal cortical emboli after mechanical thrombectomy. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the difference in functional outcome between patients achieving successful reperfusion (ie, mTICI 2B, mTICI 2C, and TICI 3 scores). Methods— Ancillary study from the ASTER (Contact Aspiration Versus Stent Retriever for Successful Revascularization) prospective multicenter blinded end point trial. Reperfusion results are reported as the mTICI score, including the mTICI 2C grade. Primary outcome was the percentage of patients with favorable outcome defined as a 90-day modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 2. Results— Two hundred ninety patients with successful reperfusion (mTICI ≥2B), harboring ischemic stroke secondary to occlusion of the anterior circulation within 6 hours of onset of symptoms, undergoing mechanical thrombectomy by contact aspiration or stent retriever were included. Favorable outcome (pre-specified as primary outcome of this ancillary study) did not differ significantly between the 3 reperfusion grades, with a similar positive effect of 2C (odds ratio, 1.71; 95% confidence interval, 0.98–3.00) and 3 (odds ratio, 1.73; 95% confidence interval, 0.88–3.41) grades compared with 2B grade. After combining grades 2C and 3, patients had a significantly higher rate of favorable outcome than patients with 2B (odds ratio, 1.72; 95% confidence interval, 1.01–2.90; P =0.043). Favorable outcome rate decreased with increasing onset-to-reperfusion time, with no significant interaction between mTICI 2C/3 grade and onset-to-reperfusion time on favorable outcome. Conclusions— Combining mTICI 2C and TICI 3 grades helps to determine a subgroup of patients achieving better functional outcomes than mTICI 2B patients. Achieving mTICI 2C/3 reperfusion should be the new aim of mechanical thrombectomy for anterior circulation LVO.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: General anaesthesia (GA) during endovascular thrombectomy has been associated with worse patient outcomes in observational studies compared with patients treated without GA. We assessed functional outcome in ischaemic stroke patients with large vessel anterior circulation occlusion undergoing endovascular thrombectomy under GA, versus thrombectomy not under GA (with or without sedation) versus standard care (ie, no thrombectomy), stratified by the use of GA versus standard care.METHODS: For this meta-analysis, patient-level data were pooled from all patients included in randomised trials in PuMed published between Jan 1, 2010, and May 31, 2017, that compared endovascular thrombectomy predominantly done with stent retrievers with standard care in anterior circulation ischaemic stroke patients (HERMES Collaboration). The primary outcome was functional outcome assessed by ordinal analysis of the modified Rankin scale (mRS) at 90 days in the GA and non-GA subgroups of patients treated with endovascular therapy versus those patients treated with standard care, adjusted for baseline prognostic variables. To account for between-trial variance we used mixed-effects modelling with a random effect for trials incorporated in all models. Bias was assessed using the Cochrane method. The meta-analysis was prospectively designed, but not registered.FINDINGS: Seven trials were identified by our search; of 1764 patients included in these trials, 871 were allocated to endovascular thrombectomy and 893 were assigned standard care. After exclusion of 74 patients (72 did not undergo the procedure and two had missing data on anaesthetic strategy), 236 (30%) of 797 patients who had endovascular procedures were treated under GA. At baseline, patients receiving GA were younger and had a shorter delay between stroke onset and randomisation but they had similar pre-treatment clinical severity compared with patients who did not have GA. Endovascular thrombectomy improved functional outcome at 3 months both in patients who had GA (adjusted common odds ratio (cOR) 1·52, 95% CI 1·09-2·11, p=0·014) and in those who did not have GA (adjusted cOR 2·33, 95% CI 1·75-3·10, pINTERPRETATION: Worse outcomes after endovascular thrombectomy were associated with GA, after adjustment for baseline prognostic variables. These data support avoidance of GA whenever possible. The procedure did, however, remain effective versus standard care in patients treated under GA, indicating that treatment should not be withheld in those who require anaesthesia for medical reasons.FUNDING: Medtronic.

Abstract

Contextual factors including neighborhood status have consistently been associated with health disparities. This may relate to a poorer neighborhood status involving an exposure to chronic stressors, which dysregulates cortisol secretion. This study investigated single and aggregate cortisol measures in 88 working women living in high and low status neighborhoods. Results showed significantly lower waking cortisol among women in low status neighborhoods. However, there were no group differences in aggregate cortisol measures. The lower morning cortisol among women in the low status neighborhoods follows previous research suggesting hypocortisolism as a pathway linking neighborhood status and health disparities, albeit a less consistent finding across cortisol measures in this sample. This may relate to the Swedish welfare state and its fostering of equality.

Abstract

Background Basilar artery occlusion (BAO) remains one of the most devastating subtypes of stroke with high mortality and poor outcome. Early recanalisation is the most powerful predictor of favourable outcome in patients with stroke, and may be improved with mechanical thrombectomy using stent retriever devices. However, the benefit in functional outcome and safety of stent retrievers are not yet well known. The aim of this study was to assess efficacy and safety profiles of stent retriever thrombectomy in BAO patients with stroke. Methods We analysed data retrospectively from our consecutive clinical series and conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of all previous studies of stent retriever thrombectomy in BAO patients with stroke between November 2010 and April 2014. Results From March 2010 to March 2013, 22 patients with acute BAO were treated with a Solitaire stent retriever in our series. Favourable outcome was significantly associated with younger age and distal BAO. The literature search identified 15 previous studies involving a total of 312 subjects. In the meta-analysis, including our series data, the recanalisation rate (Thrombolysis In Cerebral Infarction (TICI) score ≥2b) reached 81% (95% CI 73% to 87%). The rate of symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage was 4% (95% CI 2% to 8%), favourable outcome (modified Rankin Scale (mRS) ≤2 at 3 months) was found in 42% (95% CI 36% to 48%) and mortality rate was 30% (95% CI 25% to 36%). Conclusions Stent retriever thrombectomy is a safe treatment modality for patients with stroke presenting with BAO. Although the stent retrievers showed a good recanalisation rate, there are currently no randomised clinical trials to assess its clinical efficacy in comparison with the reference treatment.

Abstract

Background and purpose No series reported the mid-term results of Trufill DCS Orbit and Orbit Galaxy detachable coils with independent evaluation. We present the one-year safety and efficacy of these coils in real-life routine clinical practice. Methods A total of 167 patients with 167 aneurysms (39.1% ruptured) were enrolled in the prospective TRULINE study. The primary endpoint was the safety, assessed by the combined morbidity-mortality rate observed since the time of the procedure and up to one-year follow-up. For safety, primary analyses were performed on intent-to-treat population (attempted coils procedure) and all adverse events have been reviewed by an independent Data Safety Monitoring Board. For efficacy, primary analyses were performed on the per-protocol population (patients treated with more than 70% of Trufill coils and not retreated during the follow-up period) and an independent core laboratory evaluated angiographic results. Results At one-year post-procedure, neurologic impairment was observed in 6.5% (95% confidence interval: 3.5–11.8) of the patients, and 2.6% (95% confidence interval: 1.0–6.8) had a permanent neurological deterioration. Three deaths were observed, unrelated to the procedure or coils. At one year, complete occlusion was seen in 52 aneurysms (54.2%), neck remnant in 28 aneurysms (29.2%), and aneurysm remnant in 16 aneurysms (16.7%). During the one-year follow-up, the overall incidence of recurrence was 30.2% with a mean interval of 13.8 ± 4.5 months and the retreatment for major recanalization was needed in nine patients (6.3%). Conclusions The TRULINE study confirms that endovascular coiling with Trufill DCS Orbit and Orbit Galaxy detachable coils is safe and effective.

Abstract

Three thousand two hundred and ninety-eight patients admitted to our Stroke Unit with hemorrhagic, large artery atherosclerosis, cardioembolic, small-vessel occlusion, and undetermined etiology-cryptogenic strokes were included in the study. The circadian variability in onset in each stroke subgroup and the associations with various risk factors were analyzed. In each subgroup, a significant minority of patients suffered from stroke during sleep. In the ischemic group, hypercholesterolemia, paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, and previous myocardial infarction facilitated the onset during waking. During waking, stroke onset was significantly higher in the morning compared to the afternoon both in the hemorrhagic and in the ischemic type. In hemorrhagic stroke, a previous stroke was associated with a lower early morning occurrence. In large artery atherosclerosis stroke, males were at higher risk of early morning occurrence (p<0.01). In small-vessel occlusion stroke, hypertension is significantly more present in the morning compared to the afternoon onset (p<0.005). Circadian patterns of stroke onset were observed both in hemorrhagic and in ischemic stroke, irrespective of the ischemic subgroup. In all groups, stroke was more likely to occur during waking than during sleep and, in the diurnal period, during morning than during afternoon. Moreover, sex and some clinical factors influence the diurnal pattern.

Abstract

cited By 18; International audience; Objectives: To assess the efficacy and safety profile of stent-retriever thrombectomy (SRT) in acute anterior ischemic stroke patients with tandem occlusion. Materials and methods: Using the MEDLINE database, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of all studies that included patients with acute ischemic stroke attributable to tandem occlusion who received treatment with SRT between November 2010 and May 2015. Results: The literature search identified 11 previous studies involving a total of 237 subjects out of whom 193 (81.4 %) were treated with acute stent placement for the extracranial internal carotid artery occlusion. Mean initial NIHSS score was 17, and median time from onset to recanalization was 283.5 min. Mean intravenous thrombolysis rate was 63.8 %. In the meta-analysis, the recanalization rate reached 81 % (95 % CI, 73–89). Meta-analysis of clinical outcomes showed a pooled estimate of 44 % (95 % CI, 33–55; 10 studies) for favourable outcome, 13 % (95 % CI, 8–20; 10 studies) for mortality, and 7 % (95 % CI, 2–13; eight studies) for symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage. Conclusion: SRT with emergency carotid stenting is associated with acceptable safety and efficacy in acute anterior stroke patients with tandem occlusion compared to natural history. However, the best modality to treat proximal stenosis is based on an individual case basis. Key Points: • Stent retriever thrombectomy of tandem occlusion is efficient and safe. • Emergent carotid stenting during thrombectomy increase symptomatic intracranial haemorrhage without impact mortality. • Thrombectomy of tandem anterior circulation occlusion may be the first therapeutic option © 2016, European Society of Radiology.

Abstract

ObjectiveHematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is curative in several life-threatening pediatric diseases but may affect children and their families inducing depression, anxiety, burnout symptoms, and post-traumatic stress symptoms, as well as post-traumatic growth (PTG). The aim of this study was to investigate the co-occurrence of different aspects of such responses in parents of children that had undergone HSCT. MethodsQuestionnaires were completed by 260 parents (146 mothers and 114 fathers) 11-198 months after HSCT: the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale, the Shirom-Melamed Burnout Questionnaire, the post-traumatic stress disorders checklist, civilian version, and the PTG inventory. Additional variables were also investigated: perceived support, time elapsed since HSCT, job stress, partner-relationship satisfaction, trauma appraisal, and the child's health problems. A hierarchical cluster analysis and a k-means cluster analysis were used to identify patterns of psychological responses. ResultsFour clusters of parents with different psychological responses were identified. One cluster (n=40) significantly differed from the other groups and reported levels of depression, anxiety, burnout symptoms, and post-traumatic stress symptoms above the cut-off. In contrast, another cluster (n=66) reported higher levels of PTG than the other groups did. ConclusionsThis study shows a subgroup of parents maintaining high levels of several aspects of distress years after HSCT. Differences between clusters might be explained by differences in perceived support, the child's health problems, job stress, and partner-relationship satisfaction.

Abstract

Solitaire AB stent-assisted coiling facilitates the endovascular treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. Solitaire Aneurysm Remodeling is the first prospective, consecutive, European multicentric study whose main objective was to evaluate the safety, short-, and long-term efficacy of the Solitaire AB stent. This first analysis is focused on the short-term results. After exclusion of one patient, 66 Solitaire AB stents were used to treat via endovascular approach 64 aneurysms (63 patients) in seven European centers. Technical and clinical complications were recorded. A core laboratory evaluated the angiographic efficacy by using the Raymond classification scale. The mean width of aneurysm sac was 7.5 mm, and the mean diameter of aneurysm neck was 4.7 mm. Complete occlusion was achieved in 27 aneurysms (42.2 %); neck remnant was seen in 25 aneurysms (39.1 %) and aneurysm remnant in 12 aneurysms (18.7 %). Technical and clinical complications related to the procedure were encountered in eight patients (12.7 %). Postprocedural modification of the clinical status was observed in one patient (1.6 %). No patients died (0 %); one had a permanent deficit (1.6 %), and one had a transient deficit (1.6 %). Treatment-related mortality was 0 %, and permanent morbidity was 1.6 %. The Solitaire AB stent has an excellent rate of technical success navigation with the absence of dislodgement. The safety and short-term efficacy are comparable to those previously reported with coiling alone. Mid- and long-term follow-up will be required to elucidate the impact of the Solitaire AB stent on recanalization rate.

Abstract

Background and purpose Posterior communicating artery (PComA) aneurysm seems to behave uniquely compared with other intracranial aneurysms at different locations. The association between the morphology of the carotid siphon and PComA aneurysms is not well known. This study aimed to investigate whether the anatomical characteristics of the carotid siphon are associated with the formation and rupture of PComA aneurysms. Methods One hundred and thirty-two patients were retrospectively reviewed in a monocentric case–control study. Sixty-seven consecutive patients with PComA aneurysms were included in the case group, and 65 patients with anterior circulation aneurysm situated in other intracranial locations were included in the control group, matched by age and sex. Morphological characteristics of the carotid siphon were analyzed using angiography images. A univariate analysis was used to investigate the association between the morphological characteristics and the formation of PComA aneurysms. Furthermore, a subgroup analysis within the case group compared ruptured and non-ruptured PComA aneurysms. Results Patients with PComA aneurysm had a significantly (1.31 ± 0.70 vs. 0.82 ± 0.46; P Conclusions This case–control study shows that the carotid siphon morphology seems not to be related to PComA aneurysm formation or rupture.

Abstract

Background and purpose Flow-diverter stents (FDS) are new devices for the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) promoting progressive aneurysmal thrombosis. To date, the delay of aneurysmal exclusion remains unclear. We evaluated the correlation between angiographic changes in the first 24 hours and 12-month occlusion in aneurysms treated with FDS. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the intra-aneurysmal flow by evaluating the in-flow and out-flow delays on preoperative, immediate postoperative, 24-hour and 12-month follow-up angiography. Dichotomy of in-flow and out-flow within the aneurysm was considered as the time of contrast filling and time of contrast washing relatively to the parent artery. The delay times were compared and correlated with the therapeutic success of FDS at 12 months of follow-up. Results Out of 14 treated IAs, in 13 consecutive patients, n = 10 (71%) aneurysms showed complete occlusion at 12 months. Between immediate postoperative and 24-hour control, 10 aneurysms (71%) demonstrated in-flow modification, with eight increasing, two decreasing and four having no change. There were no statistical differences in therapeutic success in relation to the different flow-related profiles of intra-aneurysmal flux. Out-flow modifications were found in 11 aneurysms (79%) between immediate postoperative and 24-hour control, with five increasing, six decreasing and three having no change. Similar to the in-flow changes, there were no statistical differences in therapeutic success relative to the flow-related profiles. Conclusions Early angiographic changes after FDS placement are very frequent, but are not correlated with the 12-month technical success of flow-diversion techniques.

Abstract

cited By 13; International audience; BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Despite the improvement in technology, endovascular treatment of bifurcation intracranial wide-neck aneurysms remains challenging, mainly due to the difficulty of maintaining coils within the aneurysm sac without compromising the patency of bifurcation arteries. The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is a recent intrasaccular braided device specifically dedicated to treating such aneurysms with a wide neck by disrupting the flow in the aneurysmal neck and promoting progressive aneurysmal thrombosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Using several health data bases, we conducted a systematic review of all published studies of WEB endovascular treatment in intracranial aneurysms from 2010 onward to evaluate its efficacy and safety profile. RESULTS: The literature search identified 6 relevant studies (7 articles) including wide-neck bifurcation aneurysms in ≥80% of cases. Clinical data supporting the efficacy and safety of the WEB are limited to noncomparative cohort studies with large heterogeneity from a methodologic standpoint. The WEB deployment was feasible with a success rate of 93%-100%. Permanent morbidity (mRS of >1 at last follow-up) and mortality were measured at 2.2%- 6.7% and 0%-17%, respectively. The adequate occlusion rate (total occlusion or neck remnant) varied between 65% and 85.4% at midterm follow-up (range, 3.3-27.4 months). CONCLUSIONS: Endovascular treatment of bifurcation wide-neck aneurysms with the WEB device is feasible and allows an acceptably adequate aneurysm occlusion rate; however, the rate of neck remnants is not negligible. The WEB device needs further clinical and anatomic evaluation with long-term prospective studies, especially of the risk of WEB compression. Prospective controlled studies should be encouraged.

Abstract

In the presence of associated subarachnoid hemorrhage, the treatment of arterial dissection can be classified as either deconstructive (involving occlusion or sacrifice of the parent vessel) or reconstructive (preserving blood-flow through the parent vessel). In both treatment strategies, the main goal is to prevent any further risk of rebleeding. However, reconstructive treatment is reserved only for those patients in whom occlusion of the parent vessel is not feasible due to an insufficient collateral supply. This report is of a case of intra-cranial carotid artery dissection treated by a reconstructive endovascular approach, with deployment of a flow-diverter stent, for the management of an associated subarachnoid hemorrhage. This is, to the authors' knowledge, the first report of the use of a flow-diverter device as the main treatment of a ruptured supraclinoid carotid artery dissection.

Abstract

cited By 10; International audience; BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endovascular coiling of wide-neck intracranial aneurysms is associated with low rates of initial angiographic occlusion and high rates of recurrence. The WEB intrasaccular device has been developed specifically for this indication. To date, there has been no report of the long-term follow-up of a series of patients with aneurysms treated with this type of device, to our knowledge. Our aim was to evaluate a 1-year follow-up of angiographic results in a prospective single-center series of patients treated with the WEB-Single-Layer (SL) device. MATERIALS AND METHODS: All patients treated with the WEB-SL device in our center between August 2013 and May 2014 were prospectively included. One-year angiographic outcomes were assessed. Results at follow-up were graded as complete occlusion, neck remnant, or residual aneurysm. RESULTS: Eight patients with 8 unruptured wide-neck aneurysms were enrolled in this study. Average dome width was 7.5 mm (range, 5.4-10.7 mm), and average neck size was 4.9mm(range, 2.6-6.5 mm). One-year angiographic follow-up obtained in all aneurysms included 1 complete aneurysm occlusion (12.5%), 6 neck remnants (75%), and 1 aneurysm remnant (12.5%). Of 8 aneurysms, worsening of aneurysm occlusion was observed in 2 (25%) by compression of the WEB device. There was no angiographic recurrence of initially totally occluded aneurysms. No bleeding was observed during the follow-up period. CONCLUSIONS: Endovascular therapy of intracranial aneurysms with the WEB-SL device allows treatment of wide-neck aneurysms with a high rate of neck remnant at 1 year, at least partially explained by WEB compression. Initial size selection and technologic improvements could be an option for optimization of aneurysm occlusion in WEB-SL treatment.

Abstract

BACKGROUND: There is an increasing application of endovascular treatment for brain arteriovenous malformations (BAVMs) using ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (Onyx). Historically, this treatment has been performed using a transarterial approach. OBJECTIVE: To report our experience with transvenous endovascular embolization with Onyx (TVEO). METHODS: Five consecutive patients with BAVMs underwent endovascular TVEO between June 2007 and March 2009 at the Interventional Neuroradiology Department of the University Hospital of Limoges. There were 3 men and 2 women with a mean age of 41.8 years (range, 19-57 years). The clinical presentation included symptoms caused by intracerebral hemorrhage (n = 4) and seizures (n = 1). According to the Spetzler-Martin classification scheme, 3 BAVMs (60%) were grade III, and 2 BAVMs (40%) were grade IV. Four BAVMs (80%) were supratentorial and 1 BAVM (20%) was infratentorial. Immediate and mid-term treatment (6 months) outcomes were angiographically and clinically analyzed according to the modified Rankin Scale. RESULTS: The transvenous approach was used in all patients (100%). The success rate of complete obliteration of the arteriovenous malformation nidus was 80% (4 of 5), confirmed by follow-up angiography performed immediately and at 6 months after TVEO. No procedure-related complications occurred during or after embolization. All patients remained unchanged (modified Rankin Scale score = 0-2) and clinically stable 6 months after TVEO. CONCLUSION: The transvenous approach using Onyx for the management of BAVMs is shown to be an efficient and safe alternative treatment in cases with no other conventional therapeutic choice and when some anatomic considerations are respected.

Abstract

Fibromyalgia syndrome (FMS) is a disease of unknown pathogenesis characterized by chronic musculoskeletal pain. FMS has been also associated with altered endocrinological responses, but findings are inconsistent.The aim of the present study was to investigate free salivary cortisol levels in FMS patients compared with healthy controls with a particular focus on the cortisol awakening response (CAR). The saliva samples were collected in a controlled hospital-hotel setting, in which the participants' compliance was high and a number of potential confounders were analyzed.Twenty-nine chronic female FMS patients and 29 age-matched healthy female controls were recruited. Salivary cortisol samples were investigated eight times: in the afternoon when participants arrived at the hospital, after stress provocation (to be reported separately), in the evening, before they went to sleep, upon awakening, 30 and 60 min later, and during the afternoon of the second day. Questionnaires measuring pain levels, sleeping problems, perceived stress, and personality were administered to the participants. Other psychophysiological measurements were used to assess sleep quality and heart rate.Patients with FMS had significantly lower cortisol levels during the day, most pronounced in the morning (CAR). The potential confounders analyzed did not influence the results. As expected, FMS patients reported more pain, stress, sleeping problems, anxiety, and depression.The results lend support to the hypothesis of a dysfunction in the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis in FMS patients, with generally lower cortisol values, most pronounced upon awakening (CAR).

This HIPAA compliant study was approved by the institutional human research committee. The need for informed patient consent was waived. Twenty patients underwent four-section CT at 120 kV, 170 mAs, and 4 × 1-mm collimation. Artificial image noise was added to the CT raw data by using a dedicated software platform. Acquisitions with effective tube currents of 134, 100, 67, and 33 mAs were simulated. Each raw data set was reconstructed with bone and soft-tissue algorithms, and two radiologists independently rated the images in blinded fashion. A two-sided paired Student t test was used for statistical analysis. The lowest radiation dose that still provided diagnostic quality was ≤67 effective mAs for osseous structures and ≤134 effective mAs f...

Abstract

A simple and validated ultra high pressure liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for the simultaneous determination of the dopaminergic agents pramipexole and ropinirole in plasma of patients with Parkinson's disease. Following liquid-liquid extraction with tert-butyl methyl ether from 250μL plasma, the separation of the analytes was achieved on a Gemini NX3 column using 10mM pH 6.0 ammonium formate and 10mM ammonium formate in methanol as binary gradient mobile phase at a flow rate of 0.3mL/min. The MS/MS ion transitions were 212.10→153.03 for pramipexole, 261.2→114.2 for ropinirole and 256.1→211 for the internal standard (lamotrigine). The lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) for both analytes was 80pg/mL and the linearity was determined from 80 to 4000pg/mL for pramipexole and from 200 to 10000pg/mL for ropinirole. Mean recoveries were 94% for PRA and 73% for ROP. Both intra- and inter-assay precision and accuracy were ≤20% at LLOQ concentration and ≤15% at other concentrations. The proposed validated method was successfully applied to measure plasma concentrations of pramipexole and ropinirole in a series of patients with Parkinson's disease on chronic treatment. By grouping the two dopaminergic agents in the same assay, the method allows a large series of patient samples to be processed in a single analytical session.

Abstract

Generic substitution of antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) is still a matter of controversy and concern among clinicians and patients. We aimed to assess intrasubject variation in plasma concentrations of lamotrigine (LTG), levetiracetam (LEV) and topiramate (TPM) after generic substitution compared with a stable brand-name drug regimen in a population of patients with epilepsy. A retrospective analysis was performed on prospectively collected and stored data from our therapeutic drug monitoring (TDM) database for the years 2009-2014. The main outcome variable was the proportion of patients who, after switching from branded to generic formulations, showed a greater than ±20% change in AED plasma concentrations compared to the proportion of control patients showing a change in AED plasma concentrations of the same extent while receiving stable branded formulations over repeated TDM tests. Fifty patients on LTG, 27 on LEV and 16 on TPM showing at least one TDM test while receiving generic products fulfilled the inclusion/exclusion criteria for the analysis and were compared with 200 control patients for LTG, 120 for LEV and 80 for TPM. The proportion of patients showing an intrasubject change greater than ±20% in AED plasma concentrations was similar in the brand name vs generic group compared with the control one for LTG (22% vs 33%) and LEV (44% vs 38%), while it was higher in the control group for TPM (41% vs 6%, p

Abstract

International audience; BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Endovascular treatment of wide-neck anterior communicating artery aneurysms can often be challenging. The Woven EndoBridge (WEB) device is a recently developed intrasaccular flow disrupter dedicated to endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. The aim of this study was to investigate the feasibility, safety, and efficacy of the WEB Dual-Layer and WEB Single-Layer devices for the treatment of wide-neck anterior communicating artery aneurysms.MATERIALS AND METHODS: Patients with anterior communicating artery aneurysms treated with the WEB device between June 2013 and March 2014 in 5 French centers were analyzed. Procedural success, technical complications, clinical outcome at 1 month, and immediate and 3- to 6-month angiographic follow-up results were analyzed.RESULTS: Ten patients with unruptured anterior communicating artery aneurysms with a mean neck diameter of 5.4 mm were treated with the WEB. Treatment failed in 3 of the 10 aneurysms without further clinical complications. One patient developed a procedural thromboembolic event, and the other 6 had normal neurologic examination findings at 1-month follow-up. Immediate anatomic outcome evaluation showed adequate occlusion (total occlusion or neck remnant) in 6 of 7 patients. Angiographic control was obtained in all patients, including 6 adequate aneurysm occlusions (3 complete occlusions and 3 neck remnants) at short-term follow-up.CONCLUSIONS: In our small series, treatment of wide-neck anterior communicating artery aneurysms with the WEB device was feasible and safe. However, patient selection based on the aneurysm and initial angiographic findings in the parent artery is important due to the limitations of the WEB device navigation.
