    Abstract Background: The effect of antithrombotic therapy on patients with atrial fibrillation who sustained previous intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) remains uncertain. Data regarding antithrombotic therapy use in these patients are limited. This study aims to compare the clinical and overall outcomes of antithrombotic therapy and usual care in patients with atrial fibrillation who sustained ICH.
    Methods: We assembled consecutive patients with atrial fibrillation sustaining an ICH from our institution. Multivariable regression analysis and propensity-matched analysis were applied to assess associations of different antithrombotic therapies and outcomes. The primary outcome was mortality within the longest follow-up. Kaplan-Meier curves and log-rank tests of the time-to-event data were used to assess differences in survival.
    Results: In total, 296 consecutive patients with atrial fibrillation who survived an ICH were included in this study. Our analysis demonstrated that antithrombotic therapy was associated with reduced mortality up to a 4-year duration of follow-up (OR, 0.49, 95 % CI 0.30-0.81). Similar results were obtained from the propensity-matched analysis (OR, 0.58, 95 % CI 0.34-0.98). Subgroup analysis showed that compared with usual care, direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) with or without antiplatelet was associated with a lower risk of long-term mortality (OR, 0.34, 95 % CI 0.17-0.69). In addition, our analysis observed a significant interaction between cardiac insufficiency and treatment effect (P = 0.04).
    Conclusions: In patients with atrial fibrillation who have a history of ICH, administration of antithrombotic therapy, especially DOAC, was associated with lower mortality. Future randomized trials are warranted to test the positive net clinical benefit of DOAC therapy.

    Abstract Background: The relative effectiveness of anticoagulation agents in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) who survive an intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) is unknown. This study was performed to examine the comparative effectiveness of different oral anticoagulation (OAC) on clinical outcomes in this group of patients.
    Methods: We performed a Bayesian network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and observational studies comparing different OAC (direct oral anticoagulant [DOAC] and warfarin) for the treatment of patients with AF who sustained ICH. Outcomes included repeat ICH, thromboembolic events, and all-cause mortality. The values derived from the surface under the cumulative ranking curve were obtained to rank the treatment hierarchy.
    Results: We identified 12 studies (two RCTs and ten observational studies) involving 23,265 patients; 346 patients were treated with any OAC agents; 5,006 received DOAC; 5,271 received warfarin; 12,007 received antiplatelet or no therapy, and 635 did not received relevant therapy. Both DOAC and warfarin (RR, 0.58; 95% CI, 0.45-0.74; RR, 0.83; 95% CI, 0.69-0.98) were superior to antiplatelet or no therapy in preventing thromboembolic events. Moreover, DOAC also showed superiority in preventing thromboembolic events (RR, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.58-0.83), repeat ICH (RR, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.40-0.67), and all-cause mortality (RR, 0.51; 95% CI, 0.46-0.56) than warfarin.
    Conclusions: Our study suggests DOACs may be a reasonable alternative to anti-platelet therapy and warfarin for patients with AF who experienced ICH. However, given the available evidence is primarily observational, further validation by ongoing trials directly comparing these two classes of drugs are needed.

    Abstract Background: There are knowledge gaps regarding the comparative efficacy and safety of various venous thromboprophylaxis regimens with extended timing in patients hospitalized for acute medical illnesses. This study aims to investigate the optimal regimen for the prevention of venous thromboembolism in these patients.
    Methods: We conducted a Bayesian network meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing different venous thromboprophylaxis regimens for acutely ill medical patients. Outcomes included venous thromboembolism, major bleeding, and all-cause mortality. Risk ratios (RR) and associated 95% credible interval (CrI) were estimated. In addition, we assessed the most effective interventions in a subgroup of patients with stroke.
    Results: We identified five RCTs involving 40,124 patients. Extended thromboprophylaxis with direct oral anticoagulant (DOAC) (RR 0.78, 95% CrI 0.68 to 0.89) and low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) (RR 0.62, 95% CrI 0.45 to 0.84) were superior to standard therapy in the prevention of venous thromboembolism. However, both of them (DOAC: RR 1.99, 95% CrI 1.38 to 2.92; LMWH: RR 2.56, 95% CrI 1.26 to 5.68) lead to a significant increase in major bleeding). Moreover, both LMWH (RR 0.76, 95% CrI 0.57 to 1.00) and DOAC (RR 0.86, 95% CrI 0.76 to 0.98) with extended thromboprophylaxis showed favorable net clinical benefit compared to standard therapy.
    Conclusions: Extended thromboprophylaxis, especially with LMWH, showed better efficacy in venous thromboembolism reduction with increased risk of major bleeding. The beneficial effect of LMWH with extended timing has also been shown in stroke patients. Overall, extended thromboprophylaxis is associated with a positive net clinical benefit.

    Abstract Subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a major cause of death and morbidity worldwide, often due to rupture of intracranial aneurysms (IAs). Immune infiltration and inflammatory activation play key roles in the process of aneurysmal SAH (aSAH). This study aimed to elaborate the immune infiltration and identify related biomarkers both in blood and tissue samples from patients with aSAH. Expression data of aSAH and healthy control samples were obtained from gene expression omnibus (GEO) database. Overall, a blood sample dataset GSE36791 and a tissue sample dataset GSE122897 were included. Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between aSAH and healthy samples were explored. We applied GO biological and Gene Set Enrichment Analyses (GSEA) processes to access the functional enrichment. Then feature elimination algorithms based on random forest were used to screen and verify the biomarkers of aSAH. We performed three computational algorithms including Cell type Identification by Estimating Relative Subsets of RNA Transcripts (CIBERSORT), Microenvironment Cell Populations-counter (MCPcounter), and xcell to evaluate the immune cell infiltration landscape to identify the unique infiltration characteristics associated with rupturing. We found 2,220 DEGs (856 upregulated and 1,364 downregulated) in the original dataset. Functional analysis revealed most of these genes are enriched in immunological process, especially related with neutrophil response. Similar signaling pathway enrichment patterns were observed in tissue sample dataset and ClueGo. Analysis of immune microenvironment infiltration suggested neutrophils were abnormally upregulated in aSAH compared with those in the control group. Key gene SRPK1 was then filtered based on feature elimination algorithms, and transcription factor (TF) ZNF281 is assumed to participate in immunomodulation by regulating expression of SRPK1. Several immunomodulators such as CXCR1 and CXCR2 also appear to be involved in the progression of aSAH. In the present study, we performed a comprehensive stratification and quantification of the immune infiltration status of aSAH. By exploring the potential mechanism for aSAH based on several computational algorithms, key genes including SRPK1 and ZNF281 were filtered. This study may be of benefit to patients who are at high risk of suffering aSAH which allows for early diagnosis and potential therapy.

    Abstract Skin is the largest organ in the body and the first defense to resist various diseases and external stimuli that easily cause infection and inflammation. Aseptic inflammation, barrier damage, and foreign aid pressure induce the destruction and damage to the skin microenvironment. Subsequently, it destroys the skin’s physiological function, leading to the maintenance and circulation of steady-state imbalance and aggravating the process of skin disorders. Our study evaluated the therapeutic potential of the secretome of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (UC-CM) for dermatological diseases in adult human skin cells, ex vivo skin tissue, and a 3D skin model. Our data suggested several advantages of UC-CM due to (1) their low cytotoxicity and sensitization properties; (2) their anti-inflammatory capacity for treating inflammatory chronic cutaneous diseases; (3) their enhanced capacity of the skin barrier for treating abnormal barrier metabolism; and (4) their positive impact on restoring skin homeostasis due to effective regulation ability of skin physiological function including cell apoptosis, detoxification, and anti-aging. We thus envisage that the possibility of harnessing the therapeutic potential of UC-CM might benefit patients suffering from inflammatory skin disorders such as atopic dermatitis, acne, and psoriasis.

    Abstract Background: The base deficit, international normalized ratio, and Glasgow Coma Scale (BIG) score was previously developed to predict the outcomes of pediatric trauma patients. We designed this study to explore and improve the prognostic value of the BIG score in adult patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).
    Methods: Adult patients diagnosed with TBI in a public critical care database were included in this observational study. The BIG score was calculated based on the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), the international normalized ratio (INR), and the base deficit. Logistic regression analysis was performed to confirm the association between the BIG score and the outcome of included patients. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were drawn to evaluate the prognostic value of the BIG score and novel constructed models.
    Results: In total, 1,034 TBI patients were included in this study with a mortality of 22.8%. Non-survivors had higher BIG scores than survivors (
    Conclusion: The age-adjusted BIG score is superior to the original BIG score in predicting mortality of adult TBI patients. The prognostic model incorporating the BIG score is beneficial for clinicians, aiding them in making early triage and treatment decisions in adult TBI patients.

    Abstract Background: The Food and Drug Administration has approved Proprotein Convertase Subtilisin/Kexin Type 9 (PCSK9) inhibitors for the treatment of dyslipidemia. However, evidence of the optimal PCSK9 agents targeting PCSK9 for secondary prevention in patients with high-risk of cardiovascular events is lacking. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the benefit and safety of different types of PCSK9 inhibitors.
    Methods: Several databases including Cochrane Central, Ovid Medline, and Ovid Embase were searched from inception until March 30, 2022 without language restriction. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing administration of PCSK9 inhibitors with placebo or ezetimibe for secondary prevention of cardiovascular events in patients with statin-background therapy were identified. The primary efficacy outcome was all-cause mortality. The primary safety outcome was serious adverse events.
    Results: Overall, nine trials totaling 54,311 patients were identified. Three types of PCSK9 inhibitors were evaluated. The use of alirocumab was associated with reductions in all-cause mortality compared with control (RR 0.83, 95% CrI 0.72-0.95). Moreover, evolocumab was associated with increased all-cause mortality compared with alirocumab (RR 1.26, 95% CrI 1.04-1.52). We also found alirocumab was associated with decreased risk of serious adverse events (RR 0.94, 95% CrI 0.90-0.99).
    Conclusions: In consideration of the fact that both PCSK9 monoclonal antibody and inclisiran enable patients to achieve recommended LDL-C target, the findings in this meta-analysis suggest that alirocumab might provide the optimal benefits regarding all-cause mortality with relatively lower SAE risks, and evolocumab might provide the optimal benefits regarding myocardial infarction for secondary prevention in patients with high-risk of cardiovascular events. Further head-to-head trials with longer follow-up and high methodologic quality are warranted to help inform subsequent guidelines for the management of these patients.

    Abstract Background: For ischemic stroke patients with concomitant unruptured aneurysm, intravenous thrombolysis therapy (IVT) remains a disputable decision. We hence performed a meta-analysis to identify the related brain hemorrhage rate of unruptured aneurysms and the risk ratio for their rupture comparing to stroke patients who do not have aneurysms.
    Methods: A comprehensive search was conducted to identify the studies from the online database from 2000 to September 1st, 2022. Cohort studies were included and assessed by Newcastle-Ottawa Scale (NOS) for quality. The research procedures were subjected to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Fixed-effects model was used based on the heterogeneity tests.
    Results: In 10 eligible studies, 7238 ischemic stroke patients were screened, a total of 302 patients with 348 aneurysms were included. 10 studies were eligible for ICH rate analysis, 8 for SAH rate analysis and 7 for risk ratio of stroke patients with unruptured aneurysms. The pooled any ICH rate was 16% (95% CI 11-21%), symptomatic ICH rate was 4% (95% CI 1-7%, I
    Conclusions: IVT is unlikely to induce hemorrhage of pre-existing unruptured aneurysms in stroke patients. Further randomized control studies are warranted to validate these conclusions.

    Abstract Aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage (aSAH), resulting from the rupture of intracranial aneurysms, can yield high mortality and disability. This study aimed to explore the immune infiltration of aneurysmal tissues and investigate a novel mechanism underlying aSAH. We downloaded datasets containing expression profiles of aneurysmal and normal arterial tissues from the online database. Then a comprehensive bioinformatic strategy was conducted to select the biomarkers of aneurysmal tissues. Two calculation algorithms were performed to identify the unique immune characteristics between aneurysmal tissues and normal arteries. Double immunofluorescence staining was used to investigate the role of pathway-related proteins in the inflammatory process after aSAH. Six microarray datasets were integrated, and another RNA-sequencing dataset was used as the validation dataset. Functional enrichment analysis of the differentially expressed genes indicated that immune-related processes were closely related to the progression of aSAH. We then performed immune microenvironment infiltration analysis, and the results suggested macrophages were abnormally enriched in aneurysmal tissues. Core gene MSR1 was filtered through a comprehensive bioinformatic strategy. Our analysis suggested that MSR1 might be associated with macrophage activation and migration. Our study elucidated the impact of macrophage and MSR1 on aSAH progression. These findings were helpful in gaining insight into the immune heterogeneity of aneurysmal tissues and normal arteries, and in identifying patients who might benefit from immunotherapy.

    Abstract Background: Comorbidities are common in aged intracerebral hemorrhage patients. The purpose of this study was to assess whether the Charlson Comorbidity Index (CCI) was associated with in-hospital death and short-term functional outcome in elderly patients (age ≥ 70) with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).
    Methods: This was a retrospective cohort of aged ICH patients (≥70 years old) admitted within 24 hours of ICH onset. The CCI was derived using hospital discharge ICD-9 CM codes and patient history obtained from standardized case report forms. Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine the independent effect of the CCI score on clinical outcomes.
    Results: In this cohort of 248 aged ICH patients, comorbid conditions were common, with CCI scores ranging from 2 to 12. Logistic regression showed that the CCI score was independently predictive of 1-month functional outcome (OR = 1.642, P < 0.001) and in-hospital death (OR = 1.480, P = 0.003). Neither ICH volume nor the presence of IVH was an independent predictive factor for 1-month functional outcome or in-hospital mortality (P < 0.05).
    Conclusion: Comorbid medical conditions as assessed by the CCI independently influence short-term outcomes in aged ICH patients. The characteristics of the hematoma itself, such as ICH volume and the presence of IVH, seem to have a reduced effect on it.
