Collateral Circulation and BNP in Predicting Outcome of Acute Ischemic Stroke Patients with Atherosclerotic versus Cardioembolic Cerebral Large-Vessel Occlusion Who Underwent Endovascular Treatment.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The aim of this study was to verify the value of collateral circulation and B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) in predicting clinical outcomes of patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and their biomarker value for stroke subtypes before endovascular treatment (EVT).

Patients and methods

In this retrospective study, 182 patients who underwent EVT for unilateral anterior circulation large-vessel occlusion between March 2016 and January 2022 were analyzed. The modified collateral circulation scoring system on four-dimensional computed tomography angiography (4D CTA-CS) was used to assess collateral status, and stroke subtypes were determined according to the TOAST classification criteria. Patients were divided into good (mRS ≤ 2) and poor outcome (mRS > 2) groups base
