Abstract
Introduction: More than 50% of large vessel occlusion (LVO) acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients treated with endovascular therapy (EVT) remain severely disabled at 3 months. We hypothesized that acute astrocytic inflammatory response may play a pivotal role in post-AIS brain changes associated with poor functional outcome. We proposed to evaluate the level of YKL-40, a glycoprotein mainly released by reactive astrocytes.
Patients and methods: A monocentric prospective cohort study was conducted on consecutive LVO AIS patients treated with EVT. Three blood samples (before, within 1 and 24-hour post-EVT) were collected to measure plasma YKL-40 concentrations. Functional outcome was assessed according to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at 3 months.
Results: Between 2016 and 2020, 120 patients were included. The plasma concentration of YKL-40 before EVT was statistically and independently associated with 3-month worse functional outcome (adjusted cOR, 1.59; 95% CI [1.05-2.44], p = 0.027) but not the two following samples 1-hour and 24-hour post-EVT. Accordingly, we found that excellent functional outcome was associated with a lower level of YKL-40 before and within 1 h after EVT (p = 0.005 and p = 0.003, respectively) but not when measured 24 h after EVT (p = 0.2).
Discussion and conclusion: This study suggests that the astrocytic reaction to acute brain hypoxia, especially before recanalization, is associated with worse functional outcome. Such early biomarker of the astrocytic response in AIS may optimize individualized care in the future.
期刊介绍:
Launched in 2016 the European Stroke Journal (ESJ) is the official journal of the European Stroke Organisation (ESO), a professional non-profit organization with over 1,400 individual members, and affiliations to numerous related national and international societies. ESJ covers clinical stroke research from all fields, including clinical trials, epidemiology, primary and secondary prevention, diagnosis, acute and post-acute management, guidelines, translation of experimental findings into clinical practice, rehabilitation, organisation of stroke care, and societal impact. It is open to authors from all relevant medical and health professions. Article types include review articles, original research, protocols, guidelines, editorials and letters to the Editor. Through ESJ, authors and researchers have gained a new platform for the rapid and professional publication of peer reviewed scientific material of the highest standards; publication in ESJ is highly competitive. The journal and its editorial team has developed excellent cooperation with sister organisations such as the World Stroke Organisation and the International Journal of Stroke, and the American Heart Organization/American Stroke Association and the journal Stroke. ESJ is fully peer-reviewed and is a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE). Issues are published 4 times a year (March, June, September and December) and articles are published OnlineFirst prior to issue publication.
