目的 分析颈内动脉颅内闭塞(IICAO)患者CTA图像,判断经Willis环的初级侧支循环,评估血管内机械取栓术(EVMT)预后良好的相关因素.方法 对162例行EVMT治疗的IICAO患者进行分析.搜集基线资料包括人口统计学特征、血管危险因素、ASPECTS评分、NIHSS初始评分、术后再出血例数.根据CTA图像将Willis环的形态分为4种,并结合颈动脉闭塞位置及Willis环变异情况,将初级侧支循环分为4组.通过90天后改良Rankin量表(mRS)评分来衡量术后临床结局,判断取栓术预后良好的相关因素.结果 在162例IICAO患者中,出院38.3%(62例)取栓治疗后mRS 0~2分;预后良好29.0%(47例)mRS 3~5分;死亡32.7%(53例)mRS 6分.三组间基线资料中年龄、入院NIHSS评分及房颤有统计学差异(P<0.05),Willis发育变异比例无统计学差异(P>0.05),有无初级侧支循环有统计学差异(P<0.05),其中无初级侧支循环的患者死亡率57.1%.在多变量Logistic回归中,房颤及血流循环分组为预后良好的相关因素.结论 基于颈动脉闭塞位置,结合Willis环变异联合判断是否存在初级侧支循环可能是IICAO患者EVMT后疗效的预测因子.
目的:探讨CT灌注成像(CTPI)对急性缺血性脑卒中(acute ischemic stroke,AIS)患者出血转化的预测价值.方法:选取2018年12月—2023年5月无锡市锡山人民医院收治的82例AIS患者作为AIS组,另选取同期60名健康体检的志愿者为对照组,均行CTPI检查,测量并比较CTPI定量参数脑血流量(cerebral blood flow,CBF)、脑血容量(cerebral blood volume,CBV)、平均通过时间(mean transit time,MTT)、达峰时间(time to peak,TTP)及灌注延迟时间(delay time,DT),并根据AIS患者是否发生出血转化(hemorrhagic transformation,HT),分为HT组(n=28)和非HT组(n=54),采用受试者工作特征(ROC)曲线分析CTPI定量参数对AIS患者发生HT的预测价值.结果:AIS组CTPI定量参数CBF、CBV水平均低于对照组,MTT、TTP、DT长于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05).HT组CTPI定量参数CBF、CBV水平均低于非HT组,MTT、TTP、DT长于非HT组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05).ROC曲线分析显示,CTPI定量参数CBF、CBV、MTT、TTP、DT预测AIS患者发生HT的曲线下面积(AUC)分别为0.883(95%CI:0.800~0.967)、0.819(95%CI:0.696~0.943)、0.876(95%CI:0.784~0.967)、0.869(95%CI:0.786~0.951)、0.828(95%CI:0.732~0.925),对应灵敏度为78.6%、78.6%、78.6%、68.2%、67.9%,特异度为88.9%、87.2%、83.3%、87.0%、81.5%;联合预测的AUC为0.969(95%CI:0.935~0.998),灵敏度、特异度为92.9%、92.6%.结论:CTPI定量参数可作为预测AIS患者发生HT的重要指标,联合预测价值更高,能为临床制定防治措施提供参考.
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES:The measurement of the time since stroke onset (TSS) is crucial for decision-making in the treatment of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). This study assessed the utility of computed tomography angiography (CTA) radiomics features (RFs) to estimate TSS. MATERIALS AND METHODS:A total of 221 patients with AIS were enrolled in this retrospective study and were divided into a training group (n = 154) and a test group (n = 67). Thrombi in CTA images were manually outlined using ITK-SNAP. Images were aligned, normalized, and pre-processed to extract RFs. The TSS was calculated as the time from stroke onset to CTA completion. The patients were classified into two groups according to estimated TSS: ≤4.5 and >4.5 hours. A total of 944 RFs were extracted from CTA images. Clinical factors associated with TSS were identified using multivariate logistic regression, and a combined model (clinical data and RFs) was constructed. The predictive value of the models was assessed by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). The performance of the models was compared using the DeLong test, and clinical utility was evaluated by decision curve analysis. RESULTS:The AUC of the radiomics model was 0.803 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.733-0.873) and 0.803 (95% CI: 0.698-0.908) in the training and test cohorts, respectively. The AUC of the combined model (containing data on age, diabetes, and atrial fibrillation) in the training and test sets was 0.813 (95% CI: 0.750-0.889) and 0.803 (95% CI: 0.699-0.907), respectively. The DeLong test showed no significant difference between the radiomics and combined models. Decision curve analysis showed that both models had clinical utility. CONCLUSION:CTA-based thrombus radiomics can estimate TSS in patients with AIS. The addition of clinical data to the model does not improve predictive performance.
Objective:To evaluate the application values of classifications of acute distal occlusion of internal carotid artery and variation of Willis' circle in predicting prognoses of acute ischemic stroke patients after mechanical thrombectomy (MT).Methods:One hundred and fifty-eight patients with acute ischemic stroke, admitted to our hospital from January 2016 to November 2020, were chosen in our study; these patients had conformed imaging diagnosis of acute distal occlusion of internal carotid artery and accepted endovascular MT; the clinical and imaging data of these patients were retrospectively analyzed. The distal occlusion of internal carotid artery was divided into Ia, Ib, L, and T types according to the occlusion positions. Prognoses were evaluated by modified Rankin Scale (mRS) 90 d after treatment. Multivariate Logistic regression was used to determine the independent factors for prognoses.Results:Among these 158 patients, 58 patients achieved good prognosis and 100 had poor prognosis. As compared with patients in the poor prognosis group, patients in the good prognosis group had significantly younger age, significantly lower NIHSS scores at admission, and statistically lower atrial fibrillation ratio ( P<0.05). There were statistical differences in the classifications of acute distal occlusion of internal carotid artery between the two groups ( P<0.05): the proportion of Ia type in patients of good prognosis group was the highest (75.9%), while that of T type was the lowest (3.4%). There was no significant difference in variation of Willis' circle between the two groups ( P>0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that T type of acute distal occlusion of internal carotid artery and atrial fibrillation were independent factors for prognoses of these patients ( OR=0.342, 95%CI: 0.127-0.919, P=0.033; OR=0.066, 95%CI: 0.005-0.803, P=0.033). Conclusion:Patients with T type of acute distal occlusion of internal carotid artery and atrial fibrillation are trend to have poor prognosis.

-OBJECTIVE: Endovascular mechanical thrombectomy (EVMT) has shown significant efficacy in improving neurological functions in patients with intracranial internal carotid artery occlusion (IICAO), but its clinical outcomes are variable. We examined the relationship between favorable clinical outcomes after EVMT in IICAO and a set of predictors. -METHODS: In this retrospective study, 189 patients with IICAO treated by EVMT at 3 centers from November 2015 to December 2020 were included and analyzed. Non -contrast computed tomography and computed tomography angiography were evaluated on admission. The morphology of IICAO was categorized into Ia, Ib, L, or T types, depending on the involvement of the posterior communicating artery origin, proximal anterior cerebral artery, and middle cerebral artery. The Willis' circle was categorized as integrated or compromised Willis' circle. In combination with the involvement of the IICAO and the integrity of Willis' circle, we used the primary collateral grade (PCG) to describe the presence of functional Wil-lisian collaterals. Baseline data including demographics, characteristics, vascular risk factors, and initial National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores were collected. Hemorrhagic transformation was evaluated using the 24 -hour non-contrast computed tomography after EVMT. Favorable outcomes based on modified Rankin scale, were defined as 0-2 at 90 days. -RESULTS: A total of 189 patients were included (median age, 69 years; 126 male [66.7%]). 104 patients [55.0%] showed reperfusion after EVMT, but 72 patients [38.1%] achieved favorable outcomes at 90 days. The mortality rate of type Ib was significantly higher than that with type Ia (c2 = 14.21, P = 0.001). The outcome with different structure of Willis' circle was not statistically different between the 2 groups. A multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that IICAO T -type (odds ratio, 0.028 [95% confidence interval: 0.323-3.829], P = 0.042) and PCG 2 (odds ratio 9.427[95% confidence interval:1.863-47.698], P = 0.007) were predictors of favor-able outcomes. -CONCLUSIONS: Evaluation of PCG by determining the type of IICAO and the integrity of Willis' circle may serve as a valuable indicator for the prognosis and as an essential reference for screening patients before EVMT.
