Early Recanalization Among Patients Undergoing Bridging Therapy With Tenecteplase or Alteplase. Stroke 2023; 54:2491-2499. [PMID: 37622385 DOI: 10.1161/strokeaha.123.042691] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/25/2023] [Accepted: 07/25/2023] [Indexed: 08/26/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) with alteplase or tenecteplase before mechanical thrombectomy is the recommended treatment for large-vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke. There are divergent data on whether these agents differ in terms of early recanalization (ER) rates before mechanical thrombectomy, and little data on their potential differences stratified by ER predictors such as IVT to ER evaluation (IVT-to-EReval) time, occlusion site and thrombus length. METHODS We retrospectively compared the likelihood of ER after IVT with tenecteplase or alteplase in anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke patients from the PREDICT-RECANAL (alteplase) and Tenecteplase Treatment in Ischemic Stroke (tenecteplase) French multicenter registries. ER was defined as a modified Thrombolysis in Cerebral Infarction score 2b-3 on the first angiographic run, or noninvasive vascular imaging in patients with early neurological improvement. Analyses were based on propensity score overlap weighting (leading to exact balance in patient history, stroke characteristics, and initial management between groups) and confirmed with adjusted logistic regression (sensitivity analysis). A stratified analysis based on pre-established ER predictors (IVT-to-EReval time, occlusion site, and thrombus length) was conducted. RESULTS Overall, 1865 patients were included. ER occurred in 156/787 (19.8%) and 199/1078 (18.5%) patients treated with tenecteplase or alteplase, respectively (odds ratio, 1.09 [95% CI, 0.83-1.44]; P=0.52). A differential effect of tenecteplase versus alteplase on the probability of ER according to thrombus length was observed (Pinteraction=0.003), with tenecteplase being associated with higher odds of ER in thrombi >10 mm (odds ratio, 2.43 [95% CI, 1.02-5.81]; P=0.04). There was no differential effect of tenecteplase versus alteplase on the likelihood of ER according to the IVT-to-EReval time (Pinteraction=0.40) or occlusion site (Pinteraction=0.80). CONCLUSIONS Both thrombolytics achieved ER in one-fifth of patients with large-vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke without significant interaction with IVT-to-EReval time and occlusion site. Compared with alteplase, tenecteplase was associated with a 2-fold higher likelihood of ER in larger thrombi.

Endothelial function and arterial stiffness indexes in subjects with carotid plaque and carotid plaque length: A subgroup analysis showing the relationship with hypertension and diabetes. J Stroke Cerebrovasc Dis 2023; 32:106986. [PMID: 36669372 DOI: 10.1016/j.jstrokecerebrovasdis.2023.106986] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/12/2022] [Revised: 12/21/2022] [Accepted: 01/09/2023] [Indexed: 01/21/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Stroke is a leading cause of death and disability globally. A large proportion of ischemic strokes are caused by carotid atherosclerotic plaques. However, the relationship between vascular health status (arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction) and carotid plaque remains unclear. OUR STRATEGY Here, we recruited 991 subjects with carotid plaques and 1170 subjects without carotid plaques to measure arterial stiffness and endothelial dysfunction, using a logistic regression model and multiple linear regression models to predict the relationship between them and carotid plaques. MAIN RESULTS The data revealed that patients with carotid plaques presented a significantly higher mean of cf-PWV and lower mean RHI values. Age, male gender, diabetes, hypertension, and smoking contributed to plaque formation. Carotid plaques and their lengths were negatively associated with RHI values and positively associated with cf-PWV values; diabetes combined with hypertension showed a cumulative effect on arteriosclerosis. CONCLUSION RHI combined with cf-PWV could improve the efficacy of predicting the presence of carotid plaques and their lengths.

Application of Multimodal Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Green Channel of Acute and Hyperacute Ischemic Stroke. CONTRAST MEDIA & MOLECULAR IMAGING 2022; 2022:2452282. [PMID: 35935321 PMCID: PMC9337922 DOI: 10.1155/2022/2452282] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2022] [Revised: 06/24/2022] [Accepted: 07/04/2022] [Indexed: 11/17/2022]
Abstract
The purpose of this study was to observe the effects of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the green channel of acute and hyperacute ischemic strokes, in order to better guide clinical treatment. The clinical data of 126 patients with acute and hyperacute ischemic stroke who received interventional treatment in the emergency green channel was collected retrospectively. The patients who received multimodal computed tomography (CT) were included in the CT group. Patients who underwent multimodal MRI examinations were included in the MRI group, and the door-to-needle time (DNT), neurological function, and prognosis of the two groups were compared. The result turned out that among the 126 patients included, 40 patients underwent CT examination (CT group) and 86 patients underwent MRI examination (MRI group). A comparison of general data between the CT group and the MRI group showed
. The MRI group’s DNT time (61.23 ± 9.32) min was shorter than that of the CT group (87.22 ± 14.26) min,
. Through comparison, the
values of mRS scores and NIHSS scores in both groups were greater than 0.05. After treatment, the mRS score and NIHSS score of the MRI group was lower, with
. According to the results of this study, it can be concluded that emergency multimodal MRI could shorten the DNT time of patients with acute and hyperacute ischemic stroke, reduce the degree of neurological impairment, and improve the prognosis.
