Impact of Traditional and Non-Traditional Lipid Parameters on Outcomes after Intravenous Thrombolysis in Acute Ischemic Stroke.

ABSTRACT: Contradicting evidence exists regarding the role of lipids in outcomes following intravenous (IV) thrombolysis with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA). Restricted cubic spline curves and adjusted logistic regression were used to evaluate associations of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (non-HDL-C), total cholesterol (TC), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and LDL-C/HDL-C ratio with poor functional outcome, symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (SICH) and 90-day mortality, among 1004 acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients who received IV tPA in a comprehensive stroke center. Quartile (Q) 1, Q2 and Q3 of HDL-C were associated with increased odds of poor functional outcome (adjusted odds ratio (adjOR) 1.66, 95% CI 1.06-2.60, p = 0.028, adjOR 1.63, 95% CI 1.05-2.53, p = 0.027, adjOR 1.56, 95% CI 1.01-2.44, p = 0.048) compared to Q4. Q2 and Q4 of non-HDL-C were associated with increased odds of SICH (adjOR 4.28, 95% CI 1.36-18.90, p = 0.025, adjOR 5.17, 95% CI 1.64-22.81, p = 0.011) compared to Q3. Q1 and Q2 of LDL-C was associated with increased odds of mortality (adjOR 2.57, 95% CI 1.27-5.57, p = 0.011 and adjOR 2.28, 95% CI 1.10-5.02, p = 0.032) compared to Q3. In AIS patients who received IV tPA, low LDL-C was associated with increased odds of mortality while HDL-C may be protective against poor functional outcome.

Project description:Background: Intravenous thrombolysis with alteplase benefits eligible patients with acute ischemic stroke. However, in some countries such as China, alteplase may be too expensive for low-income patients, and also for regions with low economic development. Urokinase is much less expensive than alteplase. This study aimed to assess the outcomes and treatment complications of urokinase in acute ischemic stroke patients, which are poorly understood. Methods: This multicenter retrospective study included acute ischemic stroke patients who received intravenous urokinase or alteplase from January 2014 to January 2018 at 21 centers in China. Outcomes and treatment complications were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results: Among the 618 patients included in this study, 489 were treated with urokinase and 129 were treated with alteplase. Functional independence, no/minimal disability, mortality, intracranial hemorrhage (ICH), and symptomatic ICH did not significantly differ between the urokinase and alteplase groups in the univariate and multivariate analyses. However, the patients who received alteplase had a lower odds ratio (OR) of extracranial bleeding in the univariate analysis and a lower adjusted OR (aOR) in the multivariate analysis than the patients who received urokinase (OR = 0.410 [95% CI, 0.172-0.977], p = 0.038; aOR = 0.350 [95% CI, 0.144-0.854], p = 0.021). Furthermore, in patients treated with urokinase, the patients who received high-dose urokinase had a higher OR of extracranial bleeding in the univariate analysis and a higher aOR of extracranial bleeding in the multivariate analysis than patients who received low-dose urokinase (OR = 3.046 [95% CI, 1.696-5.470], p < 0.001; aOR = 3.074 [95% CI, 1.627-5.807], p = 0.001). Moreover, patients who received low-dose urokinase had similar outcomes and complications compared to patients treated with alteplase. Conclusions: Patients treated with urokinase had similar outcomes but a higher risk of extracranial bleeding compared to patients treated with alteplase. The risk of extracranial bleeding was higher in the patients treated with high-dose urokinase than in the patients treated with low-dose urokinase. Patients who received low-dose urokinase had similar outcomes and complications compared to patients treated with alteplase. In countries such as China where some acute ischemic stroke patients cannot afford alteplase, urokinase may be a good alternative to alteplase for intravenous thrombolysis.
