Filter by:This study aims to collect clinical, laboratory, and imaging data from patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms, and collect blood or urine samples for cotinine testing. The enrolled patients underwent Pipeline implantation. The purpose is to study the effect after Pipelineline implantation.
Endovascular treatment has become one of the primary treatment methods for intracranial aneurysms. The unfavorable outcomes during follow-up included aneurysm recurrence and long-term incomplete-occlusion, which would bring a high risk of rebleeding and retreatment. Previous studies have tried to predict the outcomes of aneurysms following endovascular treatment based on aneurysm characteristics including morphology, embolization packing degree, etc, but the conclusion was inconsistent. Hemodynamics of aneurysms and parent artery played a greater role in predicting outcomes following endovascular treatments. Investigators also found that the outcomes were determined by many factors, in which the demography, clinical indicators, treatment methods, and material selection can not be ignored, and the mechanism of unfavorable imaging outcomes should be explored using large samples of clinical cases and numerous variable parameters. The pre-experiment of investigators confirmed that artificial intelligence technology can meet the calculation requirements for deep mining and analysis of large sample data. This study aims to use the deep learning model to identify relevant risk factors and weights, establish a stable and accurate prediction model, then incorporate the prospective study to verify the model. The results will be very helpful in accurately predicting the adverse outcomes such as recurrence and long-term non-occlusion after endovascular treatment and help to improve the therapeutic strategy and avoid risk factors. Besides, the occurrence of ischemic or hemorrhagic complications during follow-up may affect the final follow-up outcome, so the analysis was included as one of the outcome events to evaluate the prognosis after intervention.
To collect real-world evidence allowing assessment of functional, imaging, and safety outcomes of commercially available MicroVention devices used for the endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms (IA) at the direction of the treating physician.
The proposed study is a multi-center single arm retrospective and prospective data collection, of patients treated with the LVIS device of specific sizes of 3.5mm, 4.0mm, 4.5mm, 5.5mm with up to 5 years follow-up. Information collected during the study will be standardized across centers to include pre-treatment baseline characteristics of patients including aneurysm(s) symptoms, procedural information, prespecified clinical safety events of interest, and follow-up imaging, clinical visits or telephone calls.
Cerebral aneurysm surgery has significant mortality and morbidity rate. Inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of intracranial aneurysms, their rupture, subarachnoid haemorrhage and neurologic complications. Brain injury activates immune cells and triggers cytokine release. Cytokine level in blood and cerebrospinal fluid is an indicator of inflammatory response. Cytokines contribute to secondary brain injury and can worsen the outcome of the treatment. Preventing secondary brain injury by modulating inflammatory response represents a therapeutic target. Lidocaine is local anesthetic that can be used in neurosurgery for regional anesthesia of the scalp and for topical anesthesia of the throat prior to direct laryngoscopy and endotracheal intubation. Except analgetic, lidocaine has systemic anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effect. It acts through several mechanisms on various types of immune cells producing immunosuppressing effect. Lidocaine can act on activated microglia within central nervous system causing attenuation of immune response. Primary aim of this prospective randomized trial is to determine influence of lidocaine administration on inflammatory cytokine levels in serum and cerebrospinal fluid during and following cerebral aneurysm surgery. Secondary aim is to determine possible correlation between levels of cytokines and incidence of neurologic and infectious postoperative complications. For that purpose, postoperative neurological clinical status will be recorded. Signs of vasospasm and pathological postoperative brain CT scan findings will be recorded. Incidence of meningitis, pneumonia and sepsis in postoperative period will also be analyzed. Hypothesis of this trial is that lidocaine administration during cerebral aneurysm surgery would significantly change levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in cerebrospinal fluid and serum. Lower concentrations of pro-inflammatory cytokines can possibly contribute to better outcome and significantly lower incidence of postoperative complications. Enzyme-immunochemical analysis will be used to measure levels of interleukin-1β, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α in cerebrospinal fluid and serum. Investigation group will have, during cerebrovascular surgery under general anesthesia, regional anesthesia of the scalp and topical anesthesia of the throat prior to laryngoscopy, all done with lidocaine. Control group will have general anesthesia without lidocaine administration.
The aim of this proposal is to investigate the effects of uneventful microsurgical and endovascular treatment of unruptured saccular non-giant anterior communicating artery [ACoA] aneurysms on resting state functional connectivity levels of higher order cognitive networks and to correlate the connectivity levels of these networks with neuropsychological performance and functional outcome. This study compares two treatment groups and one control group.
To investigate whether stellate ganglion block is helpful to brain protection during cranial aneurysm surgery
This is a prospective observational registry with intent to detect the prevalence of intracranial aneurysms with contrast-enhanced MR angiography (CE-MRA) at 1.5T, and to determine the risk factors such as high blood pressure and cigarette smoking relating to intracranial aneurysms.
