ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Our aim was to investigate the effectiveness and predictors of poor prognosis in WUIS patients who received alteplase thrombolysis under the guidance of diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI)-T2-weighted imaging (T2WI) mismatch. PATIENTS ANDMETHODS:
We recruited patients within 4.5 h of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and WUIS patients with uncertain onset times from two stroke centers. To evaluate effectiveness, we compared National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores between the two groups at admission and at 24 h, 3 days, and 1 week thereafter. We also compared the two groups with respect to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 90 days after thrombolysis. The WUIS patients were divided into a favorable prognosis group (mRS score 0-1 points) and a poor prognosis group (mRS score ≥2 points). Data were compared between the two subgroups to identify factors that influence poor prognoses. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of factors related to poor prognosis.RESULTS:
A total of 114 patients with WUIS and 316 patients with AIS were enrolled in the study. There were no significant differences between the two groups in terms of NIHSS or 90-day mRS scores (p > 0.05). Baseline NIHSS score (odds ratio [OR] = 1.490, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.248-1.779, p < 0.001) and atrial fibrillation (OR = 3.825, 95% CI 1.218-12.016, p = 0.022) were identified as independent predictors of poor prognosis following thrombolysis in WUIS patients. The combined ROC diagnosis of these two variables had an area under the curve of 0.850.CONCLUSION:
The DWI-T2WI sequence is an effective method to guide intravenous thrombolytic therapy for WUIS. Baseline NIHSS score and atrial fibrillation were identified as independent predictors of poor prognosis following thrombolysis in WUIS patients.
