Abstract
- Background We aimed to clarify which time-to-maximum of the tissue residue function (Tmax) mismatch ratio is useful in predicting anterior intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis (ICAS)-related large-vessel occlusion (LVO) before endovascular therapy. Methods and Results Patients with ischemic stroke who underwent perfusion-weighted imaging before endovascular therapy for anterior intracranial LVO were divided into those with ICAS-related LVO and those with embolic LVO. Tmax ratios of >10 s/>8 s, >10 s/>6 s, >10 s/>4 s, >8 s/>6 s, >8 s/>4 s, and >6 s/>4 s were considered Tmax mismatch ratios. Binominal logistic regression was used to identify ICAS-related LVO, and the adjusted odds ratio (aOR) and 95% CI for each Tmax mismatch ratio increase of 0.1 were calculated. A similar analysis was performed for ICAS-related LVO with and without embolic sources, using embolic LVO as the reference. Of 213 patients (90 women [42.0%]; median age, 79 years), 39 (18.3%) had ICAS-related LVO. The aOR (95% CI) per 0.1 increase in Tmax mismatch ratio in ICAS-related LVO with embolic LVO as reference was lowest with Tmax mismatch ratio >10 s/>6 s (0.56 [0.43-0.73]). Multinomial logistic regression analysis also showed the lowest aOR (95% CI) per 0.1 increase in Tmax mismatch ratio with Tmax >10 s/>6 s (ICAS-related LVO without embolic source: 0.60 [0.42-0.85]; ICAS-related LVO with embolic source: 0.55 [0.38-0.79]). Conclusions A Tmax mismatch ratio of >10 s/>6 s was the optimal predictor of ICAS-related LVO compared with other Tmax profiles, with or without an embolic source before endovascular therapy.
