We aimed to evaluate the association between preprocedural D-dimer levels and endovascular and clinical outcomes. We retrospectively reviewed patients with acute intracranial large-vessel occlusion who underwent mechanical thrombectomy. Plasma D-dimer levels were measured immediately before the endovascular procedure. Endovascular outcomes included successful recanalization, first-pass recanalization (first-pass effect (FPE) and modified FPE (mFPE)), thrombus fragmentation, and the number of passes of the thrombectomy device. Clinical outcomes were assessed at 3 months using the modified Rankin Scale. A total of 215 patients were included. Preprocedural D-dimer levels were lower in patients with FPE (606.0 ng/mL [interquartile range, 268.0-1062.0]) than in those without (879.0 ng/mL [437.0-2748.0]; = 0.002). Preprocedural D-dimer level was the only factor affecting FPE (odds ratio, 0.92 [95% confidence interval, 0.85-0.98] per 500 ng/mL; = 0.022). D-dimer levels did not differ significantly based on successful recanalization and thrombus fragmentation. The number of passes of the thrombectomy device was higher ( = 0.002 for trend) and the puncture-to-recanalization time was longer ( = 0.044 for trend) as the D-dimer levels increased. Patients with favorable outcome had significantly lower D-dimer levels (495.0 ng/mL [290.0-856.0]) than those without (1189.0 ng/mL [526.0-3208.0]; < 0.001). Preprocedural D-dimer level was an independent factor for favorable outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 0.88 [0.81-0.97] per 500 ng/mL; = 0.008). In conclusion, higher preprocedural D-dimer levels were significantly associated with poor endovascular and unfavorable functional outcomes.
我们旨在评估术前D-二聚体水平与血管内治疗结局及临床结局之间的关联。我们回顾性分析了接受机械取栓术的急性颅内大血管闭塞患者。在血管内治疗前即刻测量血浆D-二聚体水平。血管内治疗结局包括成功再通、首次通过再通(首次通过效应(FPE)和改良首次通过效应(mFPE))、血栓破碎以及取栓装置的通过次数。使用改良Rankin量表在3个月时评估临床结局。共纳入215例患者。FPE患者的术前D-二聚体水平(606.0 ng/mL[四分位间距,268.0 - 1062.0])低于无FPE患者(879.0 ng/mL[437.0 - 2748.0];P = 0.002)。术前D-二聚体水平是影响FPE的唯一因素(比值比,0.92[95%置信区间,0.85 - 0.98]每500 ng/mL;P = 0.022)。基于成功再通和血栓破碎情况,D-二聚体水平无显著差异。随着D-二聚体水平升高,取栓装置的通过次数增加(趋势P = 0.002),穿刺至再通时间延长(趋势P = 0.044)。预后良好的患者D-二聚体水平(495.0 ng/mL[290.0 - 856.0])显著低于预后不良患者(1189.0 ng/mL[526.0 - 3208.0];P < 0.001)。术前D-二聚体水平是预后良好的独立因素(校正比值比,0.88[0.81 - 0.97]每500 ng/mL;P = 0.008)。总之,术前较高的D-二聚体水平与不良的血管内治疗结局和不利的功能结局显著相关。
