Effect of Postural Hypotension on Recurrent Stroke: Secondary Prevention of Small Subcortical Strokes (SPS3) Study.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:Orthostatic hypotension (OH) has been independently associated with increased risk of stroke and other cardiovascular events. We sought to investigate the relationship between OH at follow-up and recurrent stroke risk in SPS3 (Secondary Prevention of Small Subcortical Strokes) trial patient cohort. This is a retrospective cohort analysis. METHODS:We included all SPS3 trial participants with blood pressure measurements in both sitting and standing position per protocol at baseline, with at least 1 follow-up visit to establish the relationship between OH at follow-up and recurrent stroke risk (primary outcome). Secondary outcomes included major vascular events, myocardial infarction, all-cause mortality, and, ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke subtypes. Participants were classified as having OH at baseline and at each follow-up visit based on a systolic BP decline ?20 mm Hg or a diastolic BP decline ?10 mm Hg on position change from sitting to standing. We used Cox proportional hazards regression modeling to compare the risk of outcomes among those with and without OH. RESULTS:A total of 2275 patients were included with a mean follow up time 3.2 years (standard deviation?=?1.6 years). 39% (881/2275) had OH at some point during their follow-up. Of these, 41% (366/881) had orthostatic symptoms accompanying the BP drop. In a fully adjusted model, those with OH had a 1.8 times higher risk of recurrent stroke than those without OH (95% confidence interval: 1.1-3.0). The risk of ischemic stroke, major vascular events, and all-cause mortality was similarly elevated among the OH group. CONCLUSION:OH was associated with increased recurrent stroke risk, vascular events, and all-cause death in this large cohort of lacunar stroke patients. Whether minimizing OH in the management of poststroke hypertension in patients with lacunar stroke reduces recurrent stroke risk deserves further study.

Project description:The role of the CYP2C19 genotype on clopidogrel efficacy has been studied widely, with data suggesting reduced clopidogrel efficacy in loss-of-function variant carriers taking clopidogrel after percutaneous coronary intervention; however, data are limited regarding the association between CYP2C19 genetic variants and outcomes in stroke patients. We investigated whether CYP2C19 metabolizer status affects the risk of recurrent stroke or major bleeding in subcortical stroke patients taking dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel.CYP2C19*2 and CYP2C19*17 were genotyped in 522 patients treated with dual antiplatelet therapy from the Secondary Prevention of Small Subcortical Strokes (SPS3) study. CYP2C19 metabolizer status was inferred from genotype, and associations with the risk of recurrent stroke and major bleeding were assessed in the overall cohort and by race/ethnic group with logistic regression modeling. In the overall cohort, there were no differences in outcomes by CYP2C19 metabolizer status (recurrent stroke, odds ratio 1.81 [95% CI 0.76 to 4.30]; major bleeding, odds ratio 0.67 [95% CI 0.22 to 2.03]). In white participants, those with CYP2C19 intermediate or poor metabolizer status had higher odds of recurrent stroke (odds ratio 5.19 [95% CI 1.08 to 24.90]) than those with extensive or ultrarapid metabolizer status, but there was no evidence of difference in major bleeding.There were significant differences in recurrent stroke by CYP2C19 genotype-inferred metabolizer status in white subcortical stroke patients receiving dual antiplatelet therapy with aspirin and clopidogrel, consistent with cardiovascular studies on CYP2C19 and clopidogrel; however, the bleeding risk that led to early termination of the antiplatelet arm of the SPS3 trial does not appear to be explained by CYP2C19 genotype. This study was relatively underpowered; therefore, these findings should be interpreted with caution and warrant replication.URL: www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00059306.

Project description:Background and purposeFunctional polymorphisms (Ser49Gly and Arg389Gly) in ADRB1 have been associated with cardiovascular and β-blocker response outcomes. Herein we examined associations of these polymorphisms with major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), with and without stratification by β-blocker treatment in patients with a history of stroke.MethodsNine hundred and twenty-six participants of the SPS3 trial's (Secondary Prevention of Small Subcortical Strokes) genetic substudy with hypertension were included. MACE included stroke, myocardial infarction, and all-cause death. Kaplan-Meier and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used. Because the primary component of MACE was ischemic stroke, we tested the association of Ser49Gly with ischemic stroke among 41 475 individuals of European and African ancestry in the NINDS (National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke) SiGN (Stroke Genetics Network).ResultsMACE was higher in carriers of the Gly49 allele than in those with the Ser49Ser genotype (10.5% versus 5.4%, log-rank P=0.005). Gly49 carrier status was associated with MACE (hazard ratio, 1.62; 95% confidence interval, 1.00-2.68) and ischemic stroke (hazard ratio, 1.81; 95% confidence interval, 1.01-3.23) in SPS3 and with small artery ischemic stroke (odds ratio, 1.14; 95% confidence interval, 1.03-1.26) in SiGN. In SPS3, β-blocker-treated Gly49 carriers had increased MACE versus non-β-blocker-treated individuals and noncarriers (hazard ratio, 2.03; 95% confidence interval, 1.20-3.45). No associations were observed with the Arg389Gly polymorphism.ConclusionAmong individuals with previous small artery ischemic stroke, the ADRB1 Gly49 polymorphism was associated with MACE, particularly small artery ischemic stroke, a risk that may be increased among β-blocker-treated individuals. Further research is needed to define β-blocker benefit among ischemic stroke patients by ADRB1 genotype.Clinical trial registrationURL: http://www.clinicaltrials.gov. Unique identifier: NCT00059306.
