Considerations When Subtyping Ischemic Stroke in Asian Patients.

ABSTRACT: Both the incidence and prevalence of stroke in Asia are steadily increasing, and the burden of stroke is particularly high in Asian countries. Although strokes in Asians and Caucasians share many common features, there are some differences that are probably due to differences in lifestyle and genetic background. While there have been advances in the stroke classification system, the assignment of Asian stroke patients to etiological categories has received little attention. The current classification system may not be well suited to Asian patients with ischemic stroke because the proportions and relative importance of stroke subtypes may differ with race and ethnicity. This review addresses concerns about the use of the current stroke classification system in Asian patients with ischemic stroke, and proposes a classification system that is more specific to the Asian population, in conjunction with discussing advances in diagnostic techniques.

Nitric oxide: considerations for the treatment of ischemic stroke.

Project description:Some 40 years ago it was recognized by Furchgott and colleagues that the endothelium releases a vasodilator, endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF). Later on, several groups identified EDRF to be a gas, nitric oxide (NO). Since then, NO was identified as one of the most versatile and unique molecules in animal and human biology. Nitric oxide mediates a plethora of physiological functions, for example, maintenance of vascular tone and inflammation. Apart from these physiological functions, NO is also involved in the pathophysiology of various disorders, specifically those in which regulation of blood flow and inflammation has a key role. The aim of the current review is to summarize the role of NO in cerebral ischemia, the most common cause of stroke.

Technical considerations of multi-parametric tissue outcome prediction methods in acute ischemic stroke patients.

Project description:Decisions regarding acute stroke treatment rely heavily on imaging, but interpretation can be difficult for physicians. Machine learning methods can assist clinicians by providing tissue outcome predictions for different treatment approaches based on acute multi-parametric imaging. To produce such clinically viable machine learning models, factors such as classifier choice, data normalization, and data balancing must be considered. This study gives comprehensive consideration to these factors by comparing the agreement of voxel-based tissue outcome predictions using acute imaging and clinical parameters with manual lesion segmentations derived from follow-up imaging. This study considers random decision forest, generalized linear model, and k-nearest-neighbor machine learning classifiers in conjunction with three data normalization approaches (non-normalized, relative to contralateral hemisphere, and relative to contralateral VOI), and two data balancing strategies (full dataset and stratified subsampling). These classifier settings were evaluated based on 90 MRI datasets from acute ischemic stroke patients. Distinction was made between patients recanalized using intraarterial and intravenous methods, as well as those without successful recanalization. For primary quantitative comparison, the Dice metric was computed for each voxel-based tissue outcome prediction and its corresponding follow-up lesion segmentation. It was found that the random forest classifier outperformed the generalized linear model and the k-nearest-neighbor classifier, that normalization did not improve the Dice score of the lesion outcome predictions, and that the models generated lesion outcome predictions with higher Dice scores when trained with balanced datasets. No significant difference was found between the treatment groups (intraarterial vs intravenous) regarding the Dice score of the tissue outcome predictions.

Prediction of Acute Myocardial Infarction in Asian Patients With Acute Ischemic Stroke: The CTRAN Score.

Project description:BackgroundPatients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) are susceptible to acute myocardial infarction (AMI), which would lead to a dramatic increase of in-hospital mortality.ObjectivesThe authors established and validated an easy-used model to stratify the risk of in-hospital AMI among patients with AIS.MethodsWe consecutively included patients with AIS who were admitted within 7 days from symptom onset in our prospectively maintained database (NCT04487340) from January 2016 to December 2020. In the derivation cohort from 70 centers, we developed a score to predict in-hospital AMI by integrating the bedside-accessible predictors identified via multivariable logistic regression. Then in the validation cohort from 22 centers, we externally evaluated the performance of this score.ResultsOverall, 96,367 patients were included. In-hospital AMI occurred in 392 (0.41%) patients. The final model, named CTRAN, incorporated 5 predictors including the history of coronary heart disease, malignant tumor, renal insufficiency, age, and baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score. The CTRAN score was confirmed in the validation cohort using receiver operating characteristic curve, which yielded an area under the curve of 0.758 (95% CI: 0.718-0.798).ConclusionsThe CTRAN score could be a good tool for clinicians to identify patients with AIS at high in-hospital AMI risk.

Differentially expressed lncRNAs profile between ischemic stroke patients and non-stroke patients in South China

Project description:To evaluate lncRNA expression and changes in whole blood samples of patients during the acute cerebral ischemia phase, we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify dysregulated genes to put forth predicted connections and functions of the differentially expressed lncRNAs.There were 1123 differentially expressed lncRNAs (Fold change ≥2.0, p<0.05) between stroke patients and the control group. Among these, 371 lncRNAs were upregulated, and 752 lncRNAs were downregulated. Expression of nine lncRNAs (ENST00000452599, ENST00000527450, ENST00000608826, T013651, T029143, T131416, T294865, ENST00000530525 and T058035) from this signature was quantified in the same RNA samples by real-time PCR, confirming our gene chip performance.

Prediction of deep vein thrombosis by ultrasonography and D-dimer in Asian patients with ischemic stroke.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an important complication of ischemic stroke, although the incidence of DVT is regarded as being lower in Asian than in non-Asian patients. Here, we investigated the incidence and factors associated with DVT in Asian patients with ischemic stroke. METHODS:Acute ischemic stroke patients received lower extremity ultrasonography (LEUS) to diagnose the presence of DVT. Clinical characteristics and laboratory results, including D-dimer level, were compared between patients with and without DVT. Independent risk factors for DVT were investigated using multivariable analysis. Similar analysis was performed to identify factors associated with elevated D-dimer level (>?0.5?mg/dl) in acute ischemic stroke patients. RESULTS:During the study period, 289 patients were enrolled, and 38 (13.1%) showed DVT. Female sex (OR?=?2.579, 95% CI?=?1.224-5.432; p?=?0.013) and a high National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (OR?=?1.191 95% CI?=?1.095-1.294; p?=?0.005) were independently associated with the presence of DVT, although D-dimer level was not. Stroke mechanism, especially cardioembolic stroke (OR?=?3.777, 95% CI?=?1.532-9.313; p?=?0.004; reference: large artery atherosclerosis), NIHSS score (OR?=?1.087, 95% CI?=?1.002-1.179; p?=?0.001) and thrombolysis (OR?=?12.360, 95% CI 2.456-62.213; p?=?0.002) were independently associated with elevated abnormal D-dimer levels. CONCLUSION:The severity of ischemic stroke, but not the D-dimer level, was associated with the presence of DVT in Asian ischemic stroke patients. D-dimer level was influenced by the stroke mechanism. LEUS in patients with severe neurological deficit, rather than screening with D-dimer, may be more beneficial for diagnosing DVT in Asian patients with acute ischemic stroke.

iTRAQ-based quantitative serum proteomic analysis in ischemic stroke patients

Project description:Hemorrhagic transformation (HT), which occurs with or without reperfusion treatments (thrombolysis and/or thrombectomy), deteriorates the outcomes of ischemic stroke patients. It is essential to find clinically reliable biomarkers that can predict HT. In this study, we screened for potential serum biomarkers from an existing blood bank and database with 243 suspected acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. A total of 37 patients were enrolled, who were diagnosed as AIS but did not receive reperfusion treatment. They were divided into two groups based on whether they accompanied with HT or not (5 HT and 32 non-HT). Serum samples were labeled by isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) and analyzed by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) and compared under NCBInr database. A total of 647 proteins in sera samples were captured and the levels of 17 proteins (12 up-regulated and 5 down-regulated) were significantly different. These differentially expressed proteins were further categorized with Gene Ontology functional classification annotation and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes metabolic pathway analysis into biological processes. Further protein-protein interaction analysis using String database discovered that, among the differential expressed proteins, 10 pairs of proteins were found to have crosstalk connections, which may have direct (physical) and indirect (functional) interactions for the development of HT. Our findings suggest that these differentially expressed proteins could serve as potential biomarkers for predicting HT after ischemic stroke.

Ischemic Stroke Risk Associated with Mitochondrial Haplogroup F in the Asian Population.

Project description:Mitochondrial dysfunction is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, the primary risk factor for ischemic stroke. This study aims to explore the role of mitochondrial genomic variations in ischemic stroke, and to uncover the nuclear genes involved in this relationship. Eight hundred and thirty Taiwanese patients with a history of ischemic stroke and 966 normal controls were genotyped for their mitochondrial haplogroup (Mthapg). Cytoplasmic hybrid cells (cybrids) harboring different Mthapgs were used to observe functional differences under hypoxia-ischemia. RNA sequencing (RNASeq) was conducted to identify the particularly elevated mRNA. The patient study identified an association between Mthapg F1 and risk of ischemic stroke (OR 1.72:1.27-2.34, p = 0.001). The cellular study further demonstrated an impeded induction of hypoxic inducible factor 1α in the Mthapg F1 cybrid after hypoxia-ischemia. Additionally, the study demonstrated that Mthapg F cybrids were associated with an altered mitochondrial function, including decreased oxygen consumption, higher mitochondrial ROS production, and lower mitochondrial membrane potential. Mthapg F cybrids were also noted to be prone to inflammation, with increased expression of several inflammatory cytokines and elevated matrix metalloproteinase 9. The RNASeq identified significantly elevated expressions of angiopoietin-like 4 in Mthapg F1 cybrids after hypoxia-ischemia. Our study demonstrates an association between Mthapg F and susceptibility to ischemic stroke.
