エディンバラ大学の研究によると、脳出血後に生じる脳の腫れ(脳浮腫)が、患者の予後悪化と強く関連することが明らかになった。臨床データの解析から、出血後に腫れが大きく進行した患者ほど死亡率や重度障害のリスクが高いことが確認された。特に発症初期の数日間における腫れの進行が重要で、早期の変化がその後の回復を大きく左右する指標となる。本研究は、脳浮腫が単なる副次的現象ではなく、治療介入の重要な標的であることを示している。今後は腫れの進行を抑える治療法の開発や、早期に高リスク患者を特定することで、予後改善につながる可能性があるとされる。

脳出血後の腫脹が予後悪化と関連することを解明(Swelling after brain bleed linked to worse outcomes)

Abstract

BACKGROUND:

Perihematomal edema (PHE) after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a biomarker of secondary brain injury. We aimed to determine the direction, strength, and temporality of the association between PHE and functional outcome after ICH onset.

METHODS:

We did a systematic review to identify cohort studies or trials that used brain computed tomography (CT) imaging to diagnose ICH, and measured functional outcome. We sought individual participant data if they had a diagnostic CT within 72 hours, a repeat CT within 14 days of the diagnostic scan, and were not treated with surgery or therapy that could affect PHE. We did a 2-stage individual participant data meta-analysis. The primary analysis was the association between the change in absolute PHE volume between the diagnostic CT and repeat CT and the primary outcome of death or dependence (modified Rankin Scale score, 3–6) at 90±14 days after ICH onset. We quantified the association between change in absolute PHE volume at 2 repeat CT time points (24±12 and 72±12 hours) and outcome, both unadjusted and adjusted for age, sex, ICH volume on the diagnostic CT, and intraventricular extension using multivariable logistic regression.

RESULTS:

From 12 969 studies, 38 were eligible, of which 12 studies (with 1 unpublished cohort and the VISTA [Virtual International Stroke Trials Archive]-ICH databank) provided data. We included 1523 participants, of whom 1347 participants (516 [38%] participants female; median age, 66 [interquartile range, 55–75] years) had repeat CT at 24±12 hours, and 495 (195 [39%] participants female; median age, 66 [interquartile range, 55–74] years) had repeat CT at 72±12 hours. 319 participants contributed to both analyses. Death or dependence was associated with absolute PHE growth both in the first 24±12 hours (unadjusted odds ratio, 1.04 per mL increase [95% CI, 1.01–1.06]; P<0.01; adjusted odds ratio, 1.04 per mL increase [95% CI, 1.01–1.06]; P<0.01) and in the first 72±12 hours (unadjusted odds ratio, 1.03 per mL [95% CI, 1.01–1.04]; P<0.01; adjusted odds ratio, 1.02 [95% CI, 1.01–1.04] per 1 mL increase; P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONS:

PHE growth within 24 and 72 hours of ICH onset is independently associated with death or dependence after ICH.
