Project description:ObjectiveRebleeding is recognized as the main cause of mortality after intracranial aneurysm rupture. Though timely intervention can prevent poor prognosis, there is no agreement on the surgical priority and choosing medical treatment for a short period after rupture. The aim of this study was to investigate the risk factors related to the rebleeding after admission and establish predicting models for better clinical decision-making.MethodsThe patients with ruptured intracranial aneurysms (RIAs) between January 2018 and September 2020 were reviewed. All patients fell to the primary and the validation cohort by January 2020. The hemodynamic parameters were determined through the computational fluid dynamics simulation. Cox regression analysis was conducted to identify the risk factors of rebleeding. Based on the independent risk factors, nomogram models were built, and their predicting accuracy was assessed by using the area under the curves (AUCs).ResultA total of 577 patients with RIAs were enrolled in this present study, 86 patients of them were identified as undergoing rebleeding after admission. Thirteen parameters were identified as significantly different between stable and rebleeding aneurysms in the primary cohort. Cox regression analysis demonstrated that six parameters, including hypertension [hazard ratio (HR), 2.54; P = 0.044], bifurcation site (HR, 1.95; P = 0.013), irregular shape (HR, 4.22; P = 0.002), aspect ratio (HR, 12.91; P < 0.001), normalized wall shear stress average (HR, 0.16; P = 0.002), and oscillatory stress index (HR, 1.14; P < 0.001) were independent risk factors related to the rebleeding after admission. Two nomograms were established, the nomogram including clinical, morphological, and hemodynamic features (CMH nomogram) had the highest predicting accuracy (AUC, 0.92), followed by the nomogram including clinical and morphological features (CM nomogram; AUC, 0.83), ELAPSS score (AUC, 0.61), and PHASES score (AUC, 0.54). The calibration curve for the probability of rebleeding showed good agreement between prediction by nomograms and actual observation. In the validation cohort, the discrimination of the CMH nomogram was superior to the other models (AUC, 0.93 vs. 0.86, 0.71 and 0.48).ConclusionWe presented two nomogram models, named CMH nomogram and CM nomogram, which could assist in identifying the RIAs with high risk of rebleeding.

Project description:ObjectiveThunderclap-like severe headache or consciousness disturbance is the common "typical" clinical presentation after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH); however, a slowly developing "atypical" clinical pattern, with mild headache, vomiting, or dizziness, is frequently noted in elderly patients. The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical characteristics of this "atypical" subgroup, as well as related factors associated with the presence of these mild symptoms.MethodsThe data of 176 elderly patients (≥70 years old) with ruptured intracranial aneurysms (IAs) treated at our center from January 2016 to January 2020 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. The patients were divided into "typical" and "atypical" groups based on their initial and development of clinical symptoms after the diagnosis of aSAH. Intergroup differences were analyzed, and factors related to the presence of these two clinical patterns were explored through multiple logistic regression analyses.ResultsDespite significant admission delay (P < 0.001) caused by mild initial symptoms with slow development, patients in the "atypical" group achieved better clinical prognosis, as indicated by a significantly higher favourable outcome ratio and lower death rate upon discharge and at different time points during the 1-year follow-up, than the "typical" group (P < 0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that modified Fisher grade III-IV (OR = 11.182, P = 0.003), brain atrophy (OR = 10.010, P = 0.001), a larger lesion diameter (OR = 1.287, P < 0.001) and current smoking (OR = 5.728, P < 0.001) were independently associated with the presence of "typical" symptoms. Aneurysms with wide necks (OR = 0.013, P < 0.001) were independently associated with the presence of "atypical" symptoms.Conclusions"Atypical" presentations, with mild clinical symptoms and slow development, were commonly recorded in elderly patients after the onset of aSAH. Despite the prolonged admission delay, these "atypical" patients achieved better clinical outcomes than those with "typical" symptoms. Modified Fisher grade (III-IV), current smoking, brain atrophy and larger lesion diameter were factors predictive of "typical" symptoms, while aneurysms with wide necks were independently associated with "atypical" symptoms.

Project description:Evidence has proved that intracranial aneurysm (IA) formation and rupture might be closely related to inflammatory response and oxidative stress. Our objective was to evaluate the potential of CD36 and glutathione (GSH) as biomarkers for IA. In this study, the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the plasma levels of CD36 and GSH in 30 IA patients and 30 healthy controls. Then, correlation analysis, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve, and logistic regression analysis were performed. The results showed that the plasma level of CD36 in IA patients was significantly higher than that in the control group (P < 0.0001), and plasma GSH was significantly lower compared with that in the control group (P < 0.0001). ROC analysis showed that CD36 and GSH had high sensitivity (90.0 and 96.6%) and specificity (96.6 and 86.6%) for IA diagnosis. The combined sensitivity and specificity achieved were 100 and 100%, respectively. The plasma levels of CD36 and GSH did not show a significant correlation with age, the Glasgow Coma Scale, Hunter-Hess score, aneurysm size, aneurysm height, aneurysm neck, and aspect ratio. The AUC of the logistic regression model based on CD36 and GSH was 0.505. Our results suggested that the combination of plasma CD36 and GSH could serve as potential biomarkers for IA rupture.

Project description:Background and Purpose: Stability stratification of intracranial aneurysms (IAs) is crucial for individualized clinical management, especially for small IAs. We aim to develop and validate a nomogram based on clinical and morphological risk factors for individualized instability stratification of small IAs. Methods: Six hundred fifty-eight patients with unstable (n = 293) and stable (n = 416) IAs <7 mm were randomly divided into derivation and validation cohorts. Twelve clinical risk factors and 18 aneurysm morphological risk factors were extracted. Combined with important risk factors, a clinical-morphological predictive nomogram was developed. The nomogram performance was evaluated in the derivation and the validation cohorts in terms of discrimination, calibration, and clinical usefulness. Results: Five independent instability-related risk factors were included in the nomogram: location, irregularity, side/bifurcation type, flow angle, and height-to-width ratio. In the derivation cohort, the area under the curve (95% CI) of the nomogram was 0.803 (95% CI, 0.764-0.842), and good agreement between predicted instability risk and actual instability status could be detected in the calibration plot. The nomogram also exhibited good discriminations and calibration in the validation cohort: the area under the curve (95% CI) was 0.744 (95% CI, 0.677-0.812). Small IAs with scores <90 were considered to have low risk of instability, and those with scores of 90 or greater were considered to have high risk of instability. Conclusions: The nomogram based on clinical and morphological risk factors can be used as a convenient tool to facilitate individualized decision-making in the management of small IAs.

Project description:Spontaneous aneurysm regression is a rare phenomenon. We present the interesting case of a 54-year-old woman who was admitted with a Hunt/Hess grade IV, Fisher grade III subarachnoid hemorrhage and multiple intracranial aneurysms. She was treated with coiling of the largest paraclinoid aneurysm and placement of a flow diverting pipeline embolization device that covered all internal carotid artery (ICA) aneurysms. A follow-up angiogram at 6 months showed remodeling of the ICA with complete obliteration of all treated aneurysms. A distant, untreated, right frontal M2 aneurysm regressed spontaneously, after the flow was diverted away from it with the stent. The literature is reviewed, and potential pathophysiological mechanisms leading to aneurysm regression are discussed.

Project description:BackgroundRebleeding can cause a catastrophic outcome after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. A clinical + morphology nomogram was promoted in our previous study to assist in discriminating the rupture intracranial aneurysms (RIAs) with a high risk of rebleeding. The aim of this study was to validate the predictive accuracy of this nomogram model.MethodThe patients with RIAs in two medical centers from December 2020 to September 2021 were retrospectively reviewed, whose clinical and morphological parameters were collected. The Cox regression model was employed to identify the risk factors related to rebleeding after their admission. The predicting accuracy of clinical + morphological nomogram, ELAPSS score and PHASES score was compared based on the area under the curves (AUCs).ResultsOne hundred thirty-eight patients with RIAs were finally included in this study, 20 of whom suffering from rebleeding after admission. Hypertension (hazard ratio (HR), 2.54; a confidence interval of 95% (CI), 1.01-6.40; P = 0.047), bifurcation (HR, 3.88; 95% CI, 1.29-11.66; P = 0.016), and AR (HR, 2.68; 95% CI, 1.63-4.41; P < 0.001) were demonstrated through Cox regression analysis as the independent risk factors for rebleeding after admission. The clinical + morphological nomogram had the highest predicting accuracy (AUC, 0.939, P < 0.01), followed by the bifurcation (AUC, 0.735, P = 0.001), AR (AUC, 0.666, P = 0.018), and ELAPSS score (AUC, 0.682, P = 0.009). Hypertension (AUC, 0.693, P = 0.080) or PHASES score (AUC, 0.577, P = 0.244) could not be used to predict the risk of rebleeding after admission. The calibration curve for the probability of rebleeding showed a good agreement between the prediction through clinical + morphological nomogram and actual observation.ConclusionHypertension, bifurcation site, and AR were independent risk factors related to the rebleeding of RIAs after admission. The clinical + morphological nomogram could help doctors to identify the high-risk RIAs with a high predictive accuracy.

Project description:BackgroundIntracranial aneurysms are common vascular malformation occurring in 1-2% of the population and accounting for 80-85% of nontraumatic subarachnoid hemorrhages. About 10% of the ruptured aneurysm causing subarachnoid hemorrhage (SHA) develop intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH). In this scenario, the external ventricular drain (EVD) is a usual treatment for IVH. To reduce the time for the clot absorption, the neuroendoscopy with clot removal and ventricular irrigation is a feasible option, although not routinely used.Case descriptionThis 2D video shows a case of a 60-year-old female, with sudden headache associated with nausea and vomit. The brain angiotomography revealed aneurysm in the communicating segment of the left internal carotid artery, with 10.5 mm of diameter; also showed intraparenchymal, subarachnoid, and IVH, with a Fisher Modified Grade of 4 and a prompt aneurysm clipping and EVD were performed. Two days after the first surgical procedure, a neuroendoscopy was performed to remove the ventricular clots and improve the patient outcomes.ConclusionIn the presented case, at the 6th postoperative month, the patient was Grade 1 in the Rankin Modified Scale and without hydrocephalus. This procedure can be used routinely as an additional tool to microsurgical clipping to improve patients outcome.
