However. few studies have reported the characteristics of END after endovascular treatment （EVT） as so far. This study investigated the incidence, composition, and outcomes of END after intravenous recombinant tissue plasminogen activator （IV rt-PA） and EVT of acute ischemic stroke, and identified risk factors for END. Methods： Medical records of patients who received recanalization treatment between January l, 2014, and December 31, 2015 were reviewed. Patients were classified into IV rt-PA or EVT group according to the methods ofrecanalization treatment. The END was defined as an increase in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale （N1HSS） ≥4 or an increase in la of NIHSS ≥I within 72 h after recanalization treatment. Clinical data were compared between the END and non-END subgroups within each recanalization group. Results： Of the 278 patients included in the study, the incidence of END was 34.2%. The incidence rates of END were 29.8% in the IV rt-PA group and 40.2% in the EVT group, lschemia progression （68.4%） was the main contributor to END followed by vasogenic cerebral edema （21. 1%） and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage （10.5%）. Multivariate logistic regression showed that admission systolic blood pressure （SBP） ≥160 mmHg （odds ratio [OR]： 2.312, 95% confidence interval [CI]： 1.105-4.837） and large artery occlusion after IV rt-PA （OR： 3.628.95% （7： 1.482-8.881 ） independently predicted END after IV rt-PA; and admission SBP 〉 140 mmHg （OR： 5.183, 95% CI：1.967 13.661 ）, partial recanalization （OR： 4.791,95% CI： 1.749-13.121 ）, and nonrecanalization （OR： 5.952, 95% CI： 1.841-19.243） independently predicted END alter EVT. The mortality rate and grave outcome rate at discharge of all the END patients （26.3% and 55.8%） were higher than those of all the non-END patients （1.1% and 18.6%： P 〈 0.01）. Concl展开更多

Neuroimaging investigations of edema on the injured side have employed apparent diffusion coefficient measurements in diffusion tensor imaging. We investigated the changes occurring on the injured and uninjured sides using diffusion tensor imaging/apparent diffusion coefficient and histological samples in rats. We found that, on the injured side, that vasogenic edema appeared at 1 hour and intracellular edema appeared at 3 hours. Mixed edema was observed at 6 hours, worsening until 12–24 hours post-injury. Simultaneously, microglial cells proliferated at the trauma site. Apparent diffusion coefficient values increased at 1 hour, decreased at 6 hours, and increased at 12 hours. The uninjured side showed no significant pathological change at 1 hour after injury. Cytotoxic edema appeared at 3 hours, and vasogenic edema was visible at 6 hours. Cytotoxic edema persisted, but vasogenic edema tended to decrease after 12–24 hours. Despite this complex edema pattern on the uninjured side with associated pathologic changes, no significant change in apparent diffusion coefficient values was detected over the first 24 hours. Apparent diffusion coefficient values accurately detected the changes on the injured side, but did not detect the changes on the uninjured side, giving a false-negative result.展开更多
