Background: Hyperintense vessels (HV) detected in patients with acute ischemic stroke are considered as indicator of hypoperfusion. Therefore, the decrement of HV would be an indicator of reperfusion. We investigated the time course of HV using FLAIR imaging in patients who received tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) therapy, and assessed clinical course and outcome.
Methods: Consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke in middle cerebral artery (MCA) area who were treated with intravenous t-PA were included in this study. Patients were studied by MRI twice, on admission and 1 hour after t-PA infusion. Detected HV were assigned to the matching boundaries of the ASPECTS territories. Patients were divided into two groups according to the presence or absence of decrement of HV (DHV). Favorable outcome was defined as modified Rankin Scale score of 0 to 1.
Results:We analyzed 118 patients (73 men, 45 women; mean age, 76years, baseline NIHSS 13), and 52 patients had DHV. The median number of HV scores on admission was 5, and those of 1 hour after t-PA infusion was 4. Patients with DHV shows lower NIHSS time course (P<0.001), smaller infarct volumes time course (P<0.001), and increment of frequency of favorable outcome (56% versus 20%, P<0.001) compared with those without DHV. In a multivariable logistic regression model, DHV were independently associated with favorable outcome (OR 3.59, 95% CI 1.58-9.97, P<0.01) after adjusting age, sex, glucose, atrial fibrillation, ICA occlusion, baseline NIHSS, time from stroke onset to treatment, infarct volume on admission.
Conclusion: DHV in acute ischemic stroke patients in MCA area who were treated with t-PA was associated with milder clinical severity, smaller infarct volumes, and strongly predicts favorable outcome.
