Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is one of the most severe neurological disorders, with a high mortality rate and severe disabling functional sequelae. Systemic inflammation following hemorrhagic stroke may play an important role in mediating intracranial and extracranial tissue damage. Previous studies showed that various systemic inflammatory biomarkers might be useful in predicting clinical outcomes. Anti-inflammatory treatment might be a promising therapeutic approach for improving ...[more]

Project description:Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a neurologic emergency that requires immediate patient stabilization and prompt diagnosis and treatment. Early measures should focus on principles of advanced cardiovascular life support. The aneurysm should be evaluated and treated in a comprehensive stroke center by a multidisciplinary team capable of endovascular and, operative approaches. Once the aneurysm is secured, the patient is best managed by a dedicated neurocritical care service to prevent and manage complications, including a syndrome of delayed neurologic decline. The goal of such specialized care is to prevent secondary injury, reduce length of stay, and improve outcomes for survivors of the disease.

Project description:Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a worldwide health burden with high fatality and permanent disability rates. The overall prognosis depends on the volume of the initial bleed, rebleeding, and degree of delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Cardiac manifestations and neurogenic pulmonary edema indicate the severity of SAH. The International Subarachnoid Aneurysm Trial (ISAT) reported a favorable neurological outcome with the endovascular coiling procedure compared with surgical clipping at the end of 1 year. The ISAT trial recruits were primarily neurologically good grade patients with smaller anterior circulation aneurysms, and therefore the results cannot be reliably extrapolated to larger aneurysms, posterior circulation aneurysms, patients presenting with complex aneurysm morphology, and poor neurological grades. The role of hypothermia is not proven to be neuroprotective according to a large randomized controlled trial, Intraoperative Hypothermia for Aneurysms Surgery Trial (IHAST II), which recruited patients with good neurological grades. Patients in this trial were subjected to slow cooling and inadequate cooling time and were rewarmed rapidly. This methodology would have reduced the beneficial effects of hypothermia. Adenosine is found to be beneficial for transient induced hypotension in 2 retrospective analyses, without increasing the risk for cardiac and neurological morbidity. The neurological benefit of pharmacological neuroprotection and neuromonitoring is not proven in patients undergoing clipping of aneurysms. DCI is an important cause of morbidity and mortality following SAH, and the pathophysiology is likely multifactorial and not yet understood. At present, oral nimodipine has an established role in the management of DCI, along with maintenance of euvolemia and induced hypertension. Following SAH, hypernatremia, although less common than hyponatremia, is a predictor of poor neurological outcome.

Project description:ObjectiveTo analyze the impact of inflammation and negative nitrogen balance (NBAL) on nutritional status and outcomes after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH).MethodsThis was a prospective observational study of SAH patients admitted between May 2008 and June 2012. Measurements of C-reactive protein (CRP), transthyretin (TTR), resting energy expenditure (REE), and NBAL (g/day) were performed over 4 preset time periods during the first 14 postbleed days (PBD) in addition to daily caloric intake. Factors associated with REE and NBAL were analyzed with multivariable linear regression. Hospital-acquired infections (HAI) were tracked daily for time-to-event analyses. Poor outcome at 3 months was defined as a modified Rankin Scale score ≥ 4 and assessed by multivariable logistic regression.ResultsThere were 229 patients with an average age of 55 ± 15 years. Higher REE was associated with younger age (p = 0.02), male sex (p < 0.001), higher Hunt Hess grade (p = 0.001), and higher modified Fisher score (p = 0.01). Negative NBAL was associated with lower caloric intake (p < 0.001), higher body mass index (p < 0.001), aneurysm clipping (p = 0.03), and higher CRP:TTR ratio (p = 0.03). HAIs developed in 53 (23%) patients on mean PBD 8 ± 3. Older age (p = 0.002), higher Hunt Hess (p < 0.001), lower caloric intake (p = 0.001), and negative NBAL (p = 0.04) predicted time to first HAI. Poor outcome at 3 months was associated with higher Hunt Hess grade (p < 0.001), older age (p < 0.001), negative NBAL (p = 0.01), HAI (p = 0.03), higher CRP:TTR ratio (p = 0.04), higher body mass index (p = 0.03), and delayed cerebral ischemia (p = 0.04).ConclusionsNegative NBAL after SAH is influenced by inflammation and associated with an increased risk of HAI and poor outcome. Underfeeding and systemic inflammation are potential modifiable risk factors for negative NBAL and poor outcome after SAH.

Project description:BackgroundCerebral edema (CE) at admission is a surrogate marker of 'early brain injury' (EBI) after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). Only recently has the focus on the changes in CE after SAH such as delayed resolution or newly developed CE been examined. Among several factors, an early systemic inflammatory response has been shown to be associated with CE. We investigate inflammatory markers in subjects with early CE which does not resolve, i.e., persistent CE after SAH.MethodsComputed tomography scans of SAH patients were graded at admission and at 7 days after SAH for CE using the 0-4 'subarachnoid hemorrhage early brain edema score' (SEBES). SEBES ≤ 2 and SEBES ≥ 3 were considered good and poor grade, respectively. Serum samples from the same subject cohort were collected at 4 time periods (at < 24 h [T1], at 24 to 48 h [T2]. 3-5 days [T3] and 6-8 days [T4] post-admission) and concentration levels of 17 cytokines (implicated in peripheral inflammatory processes) were measured by multiplex immunoassay. Multivariable logistic regression analyses were step-wisely performed to identify cytokines independently associated with persistent CE adjusting for covariables including age, sex and past medical history (model 1), and additional inclusion of clinical and radiographic severity of SAH and treatment modality (model 2).ResultsOf the 135 patients enrolled in the study, 21 of 135 subjects (15.6%) showed a persistently poor SEBES grade. In multivariate model 1, higher Eotaxin (at T1 and T4), sCD40L (at T4), IL-6 (at T1 and T3) and TNF-α (at T4) were independently associated with persistent CE. In multivariate model 2, Eotaxin (at T4: odds ratio [OR] = 1.019, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.002-1.035) and possibly PDGF-AA (at T4), sCD40L (at T4), and TNF-α (at T4) was associated with persistent CE.ConclusionsWe identified serum cytokines at different time points that were independently associated with persistent CE. Specifically, persistent elevations of Eotaxin is associated with persistent CE after SAH.

Project description:BackgroundAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) leads to a robust systemic inflammatory response. We hypothesized that an early systemic glycolytic shift occurs after aSAH, resulting in a unique metabolic signature and affecting systemic inflammation.MethodsControl patients and patients with aSAH were analyzed. Samples from patients with aSAH were collected within 24 h of aneurysmal rupture. Mass spectrometry-based metabolomics was performed to assess relative abundance of 16 metabolites involved in the tricarboxylic acid cycle, glycolysis, and pentose phosphate pathway. Principal component analysis was used to segregate control patients from patients with aSAH. Dendrograms were developed to depict correlations between metabolites and cytokines. Analytic models predicting functional outcomes were developed, and receiver operating curves were compared.ResultsA total of 122 patients with aSAH and 38 control patients were included. Patients with aSAH had higher levels of glycolytic metabolites (3-phosphoglycerate/2-phosphoglycerate, lactate) but lower levels of oxidative metabolites (succinate, malate, fumarate, and oxalate). Patients with higher clinical severity (Hunt-Hess Scale score ≥ 4) had higher levels of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate and citrate but lower levels of α-ketoglutarate and glutamine. Principal component analysis readily segregated control patients from patients with aSAH. Correlation analysis revealed distinct clusters in control patients that were not observed in patients with aSAH. Higher levels of fumarate were associated with good functional outcomes at discharge (odds ratio [OR] 1.76, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.15-2.82) in multivariable models, whereas higher levels of citrate were associated with poor functional outcomes at discharge (OR 0.36, 95% CI 0.16-0.73) and at 3 months (OR 0.35, 95% CI 0.14-0.81). No associations were found with delayed cerebral ischemia. Levels of α-ketoglutarate and glutamine correlated with lower levels of interleukin-8, whereas fumarate was associated with lower levels of tumor necrosis factor alpha.ConclusionsAneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage results in a unique pattern of plasma metabolites, indicating a shift toward glycolysis. Higher levels of fumarate and lower levels of citrate were associated with better functional outcomes. These metabolites may represent targets to improve metabolism after aSAH.

Project description:Despite advancements in treating ruptured cerebral aneurysms, an aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is still a grave cerebrovascular disease associated with a high rate of morbidity and mortality. Based on the literature published to date, worldwide academic and governmental committees have developed clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) to propose standards for disease management in order to achieve the best treatment outcomes for aSAHs. In 2013, the Korean Society of Cerebrovascular Surgeons issued a Korean version of the CPGs for aSAHs. The group researched all articles and major foreign CPGs published in English until December 2015 using several search engines. Based on these articles, levels of evidence and grades of recommendations were determined by our society as well as by other related Quality Control Committees from neurointervention, neurology and rehabilitation medicine. The Korean version of the CPGs for aSAHs includes risk factors, diagnosis, initial management, medical and surgical management to prevent rebleeding, management of delayed cerebral ischemia and vasospasm, treatment of hydrocephalus, treatment of medical complications and early rehabilitation. The CPGs are not the absolute standard but are the present reference as the evidence is still incomplete, each environment of clinical practice is different, and there is a high probability of variation in the current recommendations. The CPGs will be useful in the fields of clinical practice and research.

Project description:BackgroundEndovascular techniques have proven beneficial in the treatment of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH), but with high risk of arterial clotting, emboli and dissection. Platelet activation and alterations in hemostasis may contribute to these complications. We investigated platelet activation and aggregation pathways in aSAH patients who underwent endovascular treatment.MethodsTwo blood samples were taken, in the early days after bleeding and during the period at risk of vasospasm. We studied platelet activation through the expression of GpIIbIIIa and P-selectin as well as aggregation rate in the presence of agonists. Platelets from aSAH patients were compared with those from orthopedic postoperative patients (POSTOP).ResultsPlatelets in aSAH were initially spontaneously activated and remained so over time. aSAH platelets were further activated with rapid aggregation in the presence of agonists, particularly ADP, with behavior comparable to POSTOP platelets.ConclusionsaSAH platelets showed prolonged increases in activation and aggregation. Therapies targeting the ADP pathway might reduce the risk of clotting and ischemic events in this context among patients requiring multiple endovascular procedures.Trial registrationNot applicable.

Project description:BackgroundCerebral vasospasm is a major contributor to disability and mortality after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. Oxidation of cell-free hemoglobin plays an integral role in neuroinflammation and is a suggested source of tissue injury after aneurysm rupture. This study sought to determine whether patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage and cerebral vasospasm were more likely to have been exposed to early hyperoxemia than those without vasospasm.MethodsThis single-center retrospective cohort study included adult patients presenting with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage to Vanderbilt University Medical Center between January 2007 and December 2017. Patients with an ICD-9/10 diagnosis of aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage were initially identified (N = 441) and subsequently excluded if they did not have intracranial imaging, arterial PaO2 values or died within 96 h post-rupture (N = 96). The final cohort was 345 subjects. The degree of hyperoxemia was defined by the highest PaO2 measured within 72 h after aneurysmal rupture. The primary outcome was development of cerebral vasospasm, which included asymptomatic vasospasm and delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI). Secondary outcomes were mortality and modified Rankin Scale.ResultsThree hundred and forty five patients met inclusion criteria; 218 patients (63%) developed vasospasm. Of those that developed vasospasm, 85 were diagnosed with delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI, 39%). The average patient age of the cohort was 55 ± 13 years, and 68% were female. Ninety percent presented with Fisher grade 3 or 4 hemorrhage (N = 310), while 42% presented as Hunt-Hess grade 4 or 5 (N = 146). In univariable analysis, patients exposed to higher levels of PaO2 by quintile of exposure had a higher mortality rate and were more likely to develop vasospasm in a dose-dependent fashion (P = 0.015 and P = 0.019, respectively). There were no statistically significant predictors that differentiated asymptomatic vasospasm from DCI and no significant difference in maximum PaO2 between these two groups. In multivariable analysis, early hyperoxemia was independently associated with vasospasm (OR = 1.15 per 50 mmHg increase in PaO2 [1.03, 1.28]; P = 0.013), but not mortality (OR = 1.10 [0.97, 1.25]; P = 0.147) following subarachnoid hemorrhage.ConclusionsHyperoxemia within 72 h post-aneurysmal rupture is an independent predictor of cerebral vasospasm, but not mortality in subarachnoid hemorrhage. Hyperoxemia is a variable that can be readily controlled by adjusting the delivered FiO2 and may represent a modifiable risk factor for vasospasm.

Project description:Background We investigated the proportion of patients in an initial good clinical condition who developed devastating DCI, and aimed to characterize these patients by aneurysm location, blood pressure instability prior to DCI, and the extent of cerebral ischemia. Methods We included aSAH patients admitted between 2010 and 2021 with a Glasgow Coma Scale of 11 or higher 24 h after aneurysm treatment, who developed devastating DCI, defined as DCI leading to coma for at least 48 h with cerebral infarction on the subsequent scan. Blood pressure instability was defined as nimodipine-induced blood pressure drops, dosage adjustments, or the use of blood pressure drugs before onset of DCI. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize the data. Results Out of 1,211 consecutive aSAH patients, 617 patients had a good clinical condition after aneurysm treatment of whom 16 (3%) patients [14 (88%) women] were included in this study. Thirteen (81%) patients had an aneurysm in the anterior circulation. Thirteen patients (81%) had blood pressure instability: twelve (75%) had nimodipine-induced blood pressure drops, eleven (69%) received antihypertensive drugs, and 7 (44%) received hypertension induction before onset of DCI. Thirteen (81%) patients had bilateral ischemia, mainly in the anterior circulation (56%). Conclusions The proportion of aSAH patients with a good clinical condition after aneurysm treatment who develop devastating DCI is small. The vast majority of these patients had blood pressure instability. Future studies are needed to investigate if a reduction in the number and extent of blood pressure fluctuations decreases the incidence of devastating DCI.

Project description:Investigation of gene expression profiles in blood of previous aSAH patients, aiming to gain insight into the pathogenesis of IA and aSAH, and to make a first step towards improvement of aSAH risk prediction. The results indicate that no gene expression differences are present in blood of previous aSAH patients compared to controls, besides one differentially co-expressed gene network without a clear relevant biological function. We collected peripheral blood of 119 patients with aSAH at least two years prior, and 118 controls. We determined gene expression profiles using Illumina HumanHT-12v4 BeadChips. After quality control, we divided the dataset in a discovery (2/3) and replication set (1/3), identified differentially expressed genes, and applied (co-)differential co-expression to identify disease-related gene networks.
