RESUMEN

Introduction: Transient ischaemic attack (TIA) is associated with increased risk of cognitive decline and dementia as early as one-year post-event. Regional brain atrophy measurements may predict future cognitive decline. Aims: 1) To determine whether Medial Temporal Atrophy (MTA) scores and interseptal distance (ISD) measurements are greater in patients with TIA compared to controls; and 2) To determine whether MTA and ISD predicts cognitive change one year after TIA. Methods: Baseline demographic, vascular risk factors, structural imaging and cognitive tests scores were compared between 103 Patients with TIA and 103 age-and-sex-matched controls from the Predementia Neuroimaging of Transient Ischaemic Attack (PREVENT) Study. MTA was assessed using the Schelten's Scale, and ISD was calculated as the distance between the septal nucleus of each hemisphere. Multiple linear regression models were used to evaluate how MTA and ISD related to cognitive change after adjusting for covariates. Results: Patients with TIA had larger ISD measurements (1.4 mm [SD=1.2] vs. 0.9 mm [SD=1.0]); p < 0.001) and higher right/left MTA scores (both p < 0.05) compared to controls. At baseline, controls performed significantly better on the RAVLT (total recall), BVMT (total and delayed recall) and the Trail Making Task (A and B) compared to patients with TIA. However, at one-year follow-up there was no evidence of decline in the patients with TIA compared with controls. Higher MTA and ISD scores were not associated with cognitive decline. Conclusions: Patients with TIA had higher MTA scores and ISD measurements than controls, but neither were predictors of cognitive decline at one year. Future studies with longer follow-up periods will be required to determine whether higher MTA scores and ISD predict risk of cognitive decline in patients with TIA.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Collateral flow can determine ischemic core and tissue at risk. Using the Interventional Management of Stroke (IMS) III trial data, we explored the relationship between computed tomography angiogram (CTA) collateral status and CT perfusion (CTP) parameters. METHODS: Baseline CTA collaterals were trichotomized as good, intermediate, and poor, and CTP studies were analyzed to quantify ischemic core, tissue at risk, and mismatch ratios. Kruskal-Wallis and Spearman tests were used to measure the strength of association and correlation between CTA collaterals and CTP parameters. RESULTS: A total of 95 patients had diagnostic CTP studies in the IMS III trial. Of these, 53 patients had M1/M2 middle cerebral artery±intracranial internal carotid artery occlusion, where baseline CTA collateral grading was performed. CTA collaterals were associated with smaller CTP measured ischemic core volume (P=0.0078) and higher mismatch (P=0.0004). There was moderate negative correlation between collaterals and core (rs=-0.45; 95% confidence interval, -0.64 to -0.20) and moderate positive correlation between collaterals and mismatch (rs=0.53; 95% confidence interval, 0.29-0.71). CONCLUSION: Better collaterals were associated with smaller ischemic core and higher mismatch in the IMS III trial. Collateral assessment and perfusion imaging identify the same biological construct about ischemic tissue sustenance.
