@#Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of intravenous thrombolysis in acute mild ischemic stroke patients (National Institution of Health Stroke Scale≤5),moreover,to verify the effectiveness of multi-modality assessment in screening high-risk patients.Methods We retrospectively included 227 patients identified with acute mild neurological deficits treated with or without intravenous thrombolysis.Odds ratios (OR) with their confidence intervals (CI) for different outcomes between groups were assessed by using multivariable binary logistic regression analyses.And the heterogeneity of treatment effect magnitude for excellent outcome[modified Rankin scale (mRS) 0~1 was estimated in different subgroups stratified by optimal cut-off value from receiver operating characteristic curve.Results In multivariate analysis,intravenous thrombolysis could both achieve higher rate of excellent outcome(OR=3.302,95%CI1.488~7.326,P=0.003) and 7 day significant improvement (OR=2.566,95%CI1.287~5.118,P=0.007).However,there was no significant difference in the risk of early neurological deterioration,intracranial hemorrhage transformation or the 90 day stroke recurrence(P>0.05).It is indicated from the subgroup analysis that,compared with non-thrombolytic group,the classification of large artery atherosclerosis(OR=9.448,95%CI1.129~79.035,P=0.038) and baseline ABCD-2 score of 5 or more(OR=2.664,95%CI1.150~6.168,P=0.022) might benefit more from intravenous thrombolysis.Conclusion For acute mild ischemic stroke patients,we reassured the safety and especially the efficacy of intravenous thrombolysis at 7 days and 90 days.Patients with ABCD-2 score of 5 or more and classification of large artery atherosclerosis might benefit more from intravenous thrombolytic therapy.

Objective@#Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) is one of the severe complications of ischemic stroke thrombolysis. Several prognostic scales have been developed to predict the risk of sICH. The performance of seven scales was compared in a single center cohort.@*Methods@#Data of patients with consecutive ischemic stroke who received 0.9 mg/kg intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA) thrombolysis within 4.5 h time window from stroke onset were collected. Seven scales that can provide an estimate of risk of sICH were identified and evaluated: Hemorrhage After Thrombolysis (HAT), blood Sugar, Early infarct signs, (hyper) Dense cerebral artery sign, Age, National Institutes of Health (NIH) Stroke Scale (SEDAN), Stroke Prognostication using Age and NIH Stroke Scale (SPAN)-100, Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke (SITS), Total Health Risks In Vascular Events (THRIVE), Glucose at presentation, Race (Asia), Age, Sex (male), systolic blood Pressure at presentation, and Severity of stroke at presentation (NIH Stroke Scale; GRASPS) and Multicenter Stroke Survey (MSS). The area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) was calculated and Logistic regression and the Hosmer-Lemeshow test were also performed.@*Results@#The current study included 293 patients, of whom 7.85% (23/293) had sICH by National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (SICHNINDS), 5.46% (16/293) by Europe Cooperative Acute Stroke Study Ⅱ (SICHECASSⅡ) and 4.44% (13/293) by Safe Implementation of Thrombolysis in Stroke (SICHSITS) criteria. SEDAN had the highest AUROC for predicting sICH: sICHNINDS: AUROC=0.843, OR=3.167, 95%CI 2.106-4.762, P<0.01; sICHECASSⅡ: AUROC=0.797, OR=2.509, 95%CI 1.652-3.812, P<0.01; sICHSITS: AUROC=0.784, OR=2.172, 95%CI 1.405-3.357, P<0.01. And SPAN-100 had the lowest AUROC among all the seven scales and was only associated with risk of SICHNINDS in regression analysis. Furthermore, when sub-grouped the cohort into anterior circulation infarction and posterior circulation infarction, regression analysis suggested that all the seven scales were however not associated with sICH risk in patients with posterior circulation infarction.@*Conclusions@#SEDAN constantly had the highest predictive power, SPAN-100 had the worst. The seven scales studied could not predict sICH in posterior circulation infarction.

Objective To investigate the relationship between total cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD) burden and intracranial hemorrhage transformation (HT) after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods One hundred and fifty-four patients who suffered from ischemic stroke within 4.5 hours of onset and received recombinant tissue plasminogen activator thrombolytic therapy in the emergency green channel of the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from August 2016 to January 2018 were enrolled.HT examined by computed tomography scan within 24 hours after thrombolysis was included.The magnetic resonance imaging examination was performed within 48 hours.The patients were divided into two groups:HT group and control group according to the presence or absence of HT.Periventricular white-matter hyperintensities (WMH) with Fazekas score of 3 or deep WMH with Fasekas score of 2 or 3 was recorded as 1 point,MRI of cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) or lacunar infarction (LI) was recorded as 1 point respectively,and peripheral vascular space (PVS) in basal ganglia graded 2-4 (≥11)was counted 1 point.Single-factor analysis was used to compare total CSVD burden score,baseline data and clinical data between the two groups.Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to explore the relationship between total CSVD burden score and HT.Results The age of the 154 patients was 66.00(59.00,74.25) years,males accounted for 66.9% (103/154),onset to treatment time (OTT) was 174.50 (131.50,200.00) minutes and the NIHSS score before thrombolytic therapy was 6.00 (3.00,10.25).There were 43 cases (27.9%) with moderate to severe WMH,35 cases (22.7%) with CMBs,52 cases (33.8%) with PVS graded 2-4,and 96 cases (62.3%) with LI.There were 21 enrolled patients (13.6%) who suffered from HT.Symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage occurred in nine cases (5.8%).In the multivariate Logistic regression model,the results demonstrated that baseline diastolic pressure (OR=1.072,95%CI 1.027-1.118,P=0.001)and atrial fibrillation (OR=28.564,95%CI 6.217-131.241,P=0.000) were independently associated with HT.After using the mild CSVD burden score as a reference,moderate CSVD burden (OR=0.810,95% CI 0.154-4.257,P=0.804) was not associated with HT after thrombolysis,and severe CSVD burden (OR=8.429,95% CI 1.643-43.227,P=0.011) was independently associated with HT.Conclusions The severity of total CSVD burden in patients with AIS was closely related to HT after thrombolysis.Severe CSVD was an independent risk factor for HT after thrombolysis.
Résumé
@#Post-stroke aphasia is a common and disabling disease. The factors affecting the recovery of language function in aphasic patients include the location and size of injury, type of aphasia, and severity of stroke, etc. The individual factors include gender, age, handedness, educational level, and others. The mechanisms of recovery of language function include blood flow reperfusion, recovery of neural function linkage, disconnection of resuscitation structure and reorganization of language network functions. The right hemisphere may hinder the recovery of aphasia, and non-verbal-specific brain networks may relate to the occurrence of aphasia. For the treatment, in addition to classical speech-language therapy, non-invasive brain stimulation techniques, such as repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and transcranial direct current stimulation, are more and more used clinically; Other treatments include drugs, acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine.
