目的:本研究旨在探讨侧支循环对不同卒中严重程度的基底动脉闭塞(BAO)患者血栓切除术与单纯药物治疗结果的影响。
方法:使用来自ATTENTION队列的数据进行事后分析,比较具有不同程度侧支循环和卒中严重程度的BAO患者的血栓切除术和药物治疗的结果。基底动脉计算机断层扫描血管造影(BATMAN)评分用于量化侧支循环,并且通过90天功能独立性的主要结局来估计效果(改良的Rankin量表评分,mRS≤2)。有利和不利的蝙蝠侠得分被分析为连续变量和分类变量,并应用调整后的多元回归模型。
结果:在221名BAO患者中,在BATMAN评分良好的患者中,与医疗管理相比,血栓切除术显着改善了功能独立性(aOR7.75,95%CI2.78-26.1),但在BATMAN评分不佳的人群中则不然(aOR1.33,95%CI0.28-6.92;pinteraction=0.028)。当被视为连续变量时,在血栓切除组中,BATMAN评分升高与较高的功能独立性相关(aOR1.97,95%CI1.44~2.81;p交互作用=0.053).在BATMAN评分较高(美国国立卫生研究院卒中量表(NIHSS)≥21)的重度卒中患者中,我们发现,与内科治疗相比,血栓切除术治疗效果存在显著交互作用(p交互作用=0.042).
结论:增加的BATMAN评分与血栓切除术后功能独立性的概率显著相关,特别是在患有严重BAO的患者中。
OBJECTIVE: This study aimed to investigate the effect of collateral circulation on the outcomes of thrombectomy versus medical management alone in basilar artery occlusion (BAO) patients with varying stroke severities.
METHODS: Data from the ATTENTION cohort were used to perform a post-hoc analysis comparing the outcomes of thrombectomy with medical management in BAO patients with varying degrees of collateral circulation and stroke severity. Basilar Artery on Computed Tomography Angiography (BATMAN) scores were used to quantify the collateral circulation, and the effect was estimated through a primary outcome of 90-day functional independence (modified Rankin Scale score, mRS ≤2). Favorable versus unfavorable BATMAN scores were analyzed as both continuous and categorical variables, and an adjusted multivariate regression model was applied.
RESULTS: Among 221 BAO patients, thrombectomy significantly improved functional independence compared to medical management in patients with favorable BATMAN scores (aOR 7.75, 95% CI 2.78-26.1), but not in those with unfavorable BATMAN scores (aOR 1.33, 95% CI 0.28-6.92; pinteraction = 0.028). When treated as a continuous variable, increased BATMAN score was found to be associated with a higher likelihood of functional independence in the thrombectomy group (aOR 1.97, 95% CI 1.44-2.81; pinteraction = 0.053). In severe stroke patients with higher BATMAN scores (National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) ≥21), we identified a significant interaction for treatment effect with thrombectomy compared to medical management (pinteraction = 0.042).
CONCLUSIONS: An increased BATMAN score was significantly associated with a higher probability of functional independence after thrombectomy than after medical management, particularly in patients with severe BAO.
