    Abstract: Because of several methodological limitations, previous studies focusing on the prevalence of large vessel occlusion in ischemic stroke (IS) patients provided conflicting results. We evaluated the incidence of IS with a visible arterial occlusion using a comprehensive population-based registry. Methods: Patients with acute IS were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France, using a population-based registry (2013–2017). All arterial imaging exams were reviewed to assess arterial occlusion. Annual incidence rates of IS (first-ever and recurrent events) and IS with a visible occlusion were calculated. Results: One thousand sixty cases of IS were recorded (mean age: 76.0±15.8 years, 53.9% women). Information about arterial imaging was available in 971 (91.6%) of them, and only preexisting dementia was independently associated with having missing information (odds ratio=0.34 [95% CI, 0.18–0.65], P =0.001). Among these patients, 284 (29.2%) had a visible arterial occlusion. Occlusion site was the anterior circulation in 226 patients (23.3% of overall patients with available data) and the posterior circulation in 58 patients (6.0%). A proximal occlusion of the anterior circulation was observed in 167 patients (17.2%). The crude annual incidence rate of total IS per 100 000 was 138 (95% CI, 129–146). Corresponding standardized rates were 66 (95% CI, 50–82) to the World Health Organization and 141 (95% CI, 118–164) to the 2013 European populations. The crude annual incidence rate of IS with a visible arterial occlusion per 100 000 was 37 (95% CI, 33–41) and that of IS with a proximal occlusion of the anterior circulation was 22 (95% CI, 18–25). Corresponding standardized rates were 18 (95% CI, 10–26) and 10 (95% CI, 8–13) to the World Health Organization population, and 38 (95% CI, 26–50) and 23 (95% CI, 19–26) to the 2013 European population, respectively. Conclusions: These results will be helpful to plan the need for thrombectomy-capable stroke center resources.

    Abstract: Because of the aging population, an increase in the prevalence of atrial fibrillation (AF) is currently observed, thus leading to a rise in AF-related ischemic stroke (IS). We analyzed the current prevalence of AF among patients with IS, their characteristics, and temporal trends from 2006 to 2017 in the population-based Dijon Stroke Registry. Methods: We used data from the Dijon Stroke Registry, an ongoing population-based study that records all cases of acute stroke among residents of the city of Dijon. All patients with IS between 2006 and 2017 were included. Previous AF was defined if it was mentioned in the medical file before stroke and newly diagnosed AF if it was diagnosed during the diagnostic workup of patients with acute stroke. Results: During the period 2014 to 2017, among the 796 patients with IS recorded in the Dijon Stroke Registry, 239 (30.0%) had AF, of whom 79 (9.9% of total patients with IS) had newly diagnosed AF, and 98 (12.3%) had previous AF treated with oral anticoagulants. Patients with IS with AF had more disabilities and a higher initial severity according to the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale compared with those without AF. The age-adjusted prevalence of AF in patients with IS increased between 2006 and 2017 (+9% per time period), with an important increase in men aged 65 to 74 years (+81%) and women aged ≥85 years (+24%), and a significant decrease in women aged 65 to 74 years (−39%). The use of oral anticoagulant treatment in previous AF patients increased between 2006 and 2009 and 2014 and 2017 (29.3% to 61.3%, P 〈 0.0001). However, 37.5% of patients with previous AF and CHADS 2 score ≥2 were not treated with OAC. Conclusions: The increase in AF prevalence in patients with IS could be related to a better diagnosis of this condition. The underuse of oral anticoagulation treatment was still observed.

    Abstract: (1) Background: we aimed to describe the disease-specific quality of life (QoL) of ischemic stroke patients treated with acute revascularization therapy, its evolution from 6 months to 12 months, and associated factors. (2) Methods: QoL was assessed with the SS-QoL in consecutive patients treated with either intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and/or mechanical thrombectomy (MT). Variables associated with QoL scores and its evolution were studied using multivariate mixed models, and interaction with time. Analyses were performed in four domains of SS-QoL: self-care, mobility, mood, and social roles. (3) Results: Among the 501 included patients (mean (sd) age 68.9 (14.5), 49% women), lower post-stroke QoL was independently related to lower level of school education, prestroke mRS 〉 2, and 24 h NIHSS score 〉 4. Independent predictors of unfavorable evolution of QoL over time were age 〈 75 years (Mobility p = 0.0194 and Mood p = 0.0015), NIHSS score ≤ 4, (Self-care p = 0.0053 and Mood p = 0.0048), and modified Rankin Scale score ≤ 2 (Social roles, p = 0.0006). Revascularization therapy had no significant effect on the QoL scores, but patients treated with MT (alone or as bridging therapy) had significantly greater improvement in mobility score between 6 and 12 months than patients treated with IVT alone (p = 0.0072). (4) Conclusion: QoL evolution over one year had only slight variation and was associated with the modalities of acute treatment, age, and stroke severity.

    Abstract: (1) Background: The limited availability of thrombectomy-capable stroke centres raises questions about pre-hospital triage of patients with suspected stroke (IS) due to large vessel occlusion (LVO). Aims: This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of clinical stroke severity scales available for LVO detection. (2) Methods: Patients with IS were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France, using a population-based registry (2013–2017). Clinical signs and arterial imaging data were collected. LVO was defined as an occlusion site affecting the terminal intracranial internal carotid artery, the M1 segment of the middle cerebral artery (MCA), or the basilar artery (restricted definition). A wide definition of LVO also included the M2 segment of the MCA. For each of the 16 evaluated scales, a receiver operator characteristic (ROC) analysis was performed, and the c-statistic representing the area under the ROC curve was evaluated to assess discrimination for predicting LVO. (3) Results: 971 patients were registered, including 123 patients (12.7%) with an LVO according to the restricted definition. The c-statistic for LVO detection ranged between 0.66 and 0.80 according to the different scales, with a sensibility varying from 70% to 98% and a specificity from 33% to 86%. According to the wide definition of LVO (174 patients, 17.9%), the c-statistic was slightly lower, ranging between 0.64 and 0.79. The sensitivity was 59% to 93%, and the specificity was 34% to 89%. (4) Conclusion: The clinical scales failed to combine a high sensitivity and a high specificity to detect LVO. Further studies are needed to determine the best strategy for pre-hospital triage of IS patients.

    Abstract: Data on the epidemiology of ischemic stroke (IS) with large vessel occlusion (LVO) are scarce although there is a need to better assess future demands for dedicated facilities in an aging population. This study aimed to estimate the number of expected cases of IS with LVO of the anterior circulation in the French population by 2050. Methods IS were retrieved from the population-based registry of Dijon, France (2013–2017). Patients with LVO were identified and age-and sex-standardized incidence rates were calculated to estimate the number of expected cases in the whole French population by 2050 according three scenarios: stable incidence; a decrease in incidence rates of 0.5%/year in people & gt;65 years old; a decrease in incidence rates of 0.5%/year in overall population. Results 1,067 cases of IS with LVO were recorded in Dijon over the study period, corresponding to crude incidence rate of 22/100,000/year (95% CI: 18–25). By 2050, the number of cases is expected to increase by 51 to 81% according to the various scenarios, to reach between 22,457 cases (95% CI: 10,839 – 43,639) and 26,763 cases (95% CI: 12,918 – 52,008) annually. This increase will be mainly driven by patients & gt;80  years old, with a rise of cases between +103% and +42% in this age group. The proportion of patients & gt;80 years old among overall IS with LVO will increase from 43 to 57% approximately. Conclusion The expected massive increase in IS with LVO highlights the need for a rapid action to cover stroke care requirements.

    Abstract: Intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) and mechanical thrombectomy (MT) in women with ischemic stroke (IS) during pregnancy/post-partum is challenging, and recent guidelines claimed for additional information to better argue its effectiveness and safety. This observational national study aimed to describe characteristics, rates and outcomes of pregnant/post-partum women receiving acute revascularization therapy for IS compared to their non-pregnant counterparts, and pregnant women with IS not receiving such therapy. Patients and methods: In this cross-sectional study, all women aged 15–49 years hospitalized in France for IS between 2012 and 2018 were retrieved from the French hospital discharge databases. Pregnant or post-partum (⩽6 weeks after delivery) women were identified. Data about patients’ characteristics, risk factors, revascularization therapy, delivery, post-stroke survival, and recurrent vascular events during follow-up were recorded. Results: Over the study period, 382 women with pregnancy-related IS were registered. Among them, 7.3% ( n = 28) received a revascularization therapy, including nine cases during pregnancy, one the same day as delivery, and 18 during the post-partum period, compared with 8.5% ( n = 1285) in women with non-pregnancy-related IS ( n = 15,084). Treated pregnant/post-partum women had more severe IS than not-treated pregnant/post-partum. Compared with treated not-pregnant women, they were younger, but did not differ regarding other characteristics including stroke severity. There were no differences in systemic or intracranial hemorrhages or in the length of hospital stay between pregnant/post-partum women compared with treated not-pregnant women. All women receiving revascularization during pregnancy had a live baby. After a mean follow-up of 4.3 years, all pregnant/post-partum women were alive, one had recurrent IS and none had other vascular events. Discussion and conclusion: Only a few women with pregnancy-related IS were treated with acute revascularization therapy, but this was proportionately similar to their non-pregnant counterparts, from whom they did not differed regarding characteristics, survival, and risk of recurrent events. These findings suggest that stroke physicians applied treatment strategies of IS in a similar way regardless of pregnancy in France, and this attitude was an anticipation but consistent with the recently published guidelines on the topic.

    Abstract: Atrial cardiomyopathy (AC) is an emerging concept explaining the pathophysiology of cardioembolic strokes in absence of atrial fibrillation (AF). A definition based on the presence of electrical abnormality (P-wave terminal force in lead V1 (PTFV1) 〉 5000 µV×ms), N-Terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT pro BNP) 〉 250 pg/mL and/or indexed left atrial diameter (LADI) 〉 3 cm/m² is currently tested in the ARCADIA (AtRial Cardiopathy and Antithrombotic Drugs In prevention After cryptogenic stroke) trial. We set out to estimate the prevalence of AC as defined in the ARCADIA trial, its determinants and its association with AF detected after stroke (AFDAS). Methods Stepwise screening for silent Atrial Fibrillation After Stroke (SAFAS) study prospectively included 240 ischaemic stroke patients. AC markers were complete for 192 of them and 9 were not included in this analysis because AF had been diagnosed on admission. Results A total of 183 patients were analysed, of whom 57% (104 patients) met the AC criteria (79 NT-proBNP, 47 PTFV1, 4 LADI). In the multivariate logistic regression, C reactive protein 〉 3 mg/L (OR (95% CI) 2.60 (1.30 to 5.21), p=0.007) and age (OR (95% CI) 1.07 (1.04 to 1.10), p 〈 0.001) were found to be independently associated with AC. After 6 months of follow-up, AFDAS was detected in 33% of AC patients and in 14% of the remaining ones (p=0.003). However, AC was not independently associated with AFDAS, contrary to left atrial volume index ( 〉 34 mL/m 2 , OR 2.35 (CI 1.09 to 5.06) p=0029). Conclusion AC as defined in ARCADIA is mostly based on NT pro BNP elevation (76% of patients) and is associated with age and inflammation. Moreover, AC was not independently associated with AFDAS at follow-up. The ARCADIA trial, which compares aspirin to apixaban in patients with embolic strokes of undetermined source with AC markers and must, therefore be analysed in the light of these limitations. Trial registration number NCT03570060 .

    Abstract: Strategy for the acute management of minor ischemic stroke (IS) with large vessel occlusion (LVO) is under debate, especially the benefits of mechanical thrombectomy. The frequency of minor IS with LVO among overall patients is not well established. This study aimed to assess the proportion of minor IS and to depict characteristics of patients according to the presence of LVO in a comprehensive population-based setting. Methods: Patients with acute IS were prospectively identified among residents of Dijon, France, using a population-based registry (2013–2017). All arterial imaging exams were reviewed to assess arterial occlusion. Minor stroke was defined as that with a National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score of & lt;6. Proportion of patients with LVO was estimated in the minor IS population. The clinical presentation of patients was compared according to the presence of an LVO. Results: Nine hundred seventy-one patients were registered, including 582 (59.9%) patients with a minor IS. Of these patients, 23 (4.0%) had a LVO. Patients with minor IS and LVO had more severe presentation [median 3 (IQR 2–5) vs. 2 (IQR 1–3), p = 0.001] with decreased consciousness (13.0 vs. 1.6%, p & lt;0.001) and cortical signs (56.5 vs. 30.8%, p = 0.009), especially aphasia (34.8 vs. 15.4%, p = 0.013) and altered item level of consciousness (LOC) questions (26.1 vs. 11.6%, p = 0.037). In multivariable analyses, only NIHSS score (OR = 1.45 per point; 95% CI: 1.11–1.91, p = 0.007) was associated with proximal LVO in patients with minor IS. Conclusion: Large vessel occlusion (LVO) in minor stroke is non-exceptional, and our findings highlight the need for emergency arterial imaging in any patients suspected of acute stroke, including those with minor symptoms because of the absence of obvious predictors of proximal LVO.
