    Diffusion-weighted imaging as predictor of acute ischemic stroke etiology
    (2022) Brunser, Alejandro; Mansilla, Eloy; Navia, Víctor; Mazzon, Enrico; Rojo, Alexis; Cavada, Gabriel; Olavarría, Verónica V.; Munoz Venturelli, Paula; Lavados, Pablo
    Background: Topographic patterns may correlate with causes of ischemic stroke. Objective: To investigate the association between diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) and Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment (TOAST) classification. Methods: We included 1019 ischemic stroke patients. DWI were classified as: i) negative; ii) DWI single lesion (cortico-subcortical, cortical, subcortical ≥20 mm, or subcortical <20 mm); iii) scattered lesions in one territory (small scattered lesions or confluent with additional lesions); and iv) multiple lesions (multiple unilateral anterior circulation [MAC], multiple posterior circulation [MPC], multiple bilateral anterior circulation [MBAC], and multiple anterior and posterior circulations [MAP]). Results: There was a relationship between DWI patterns and TOAST classification (p<0.001). Large artery atherosclerosis was associated with small, scattered lesions in one vascular territory (Odds Ratio [OR] 4.22, 95% confidence interval [95%CI] 2.61–6.8), MPC (OR 3.52; 95%CI 1.54–8.03), and subcortical lesions <20 mm (OR 3.47; 95%CI 1.76–6.85). Cardioembolic strokes correlated with MAP (OR 4.3; 95%CI 1.64–11.2), cortico-subcortical lesions (OR 3.24; 95%CI 1.9–5.5) and negative DWI (OR 2.46; 95%CI 1.1–5.49). Cryptogenic strokes correlated with negative DWI (OR 4.1; 95%CI 1,84–8.69), cortical strokes (OR 3.3; 95%CI 1.25–8.8), MAP (OR 3.33; 95%CI 1.25–8.81) and subcortical lesion ≥20 mm (OR 2.44; 95%CI 1,04–5.73). Lacunar strokes correlated with subcortical lesions diameter <20 mm (OR 42.9; 95%CI 22.7–81.1) and negative DWI (OR 8.87; 95%CI 4.03–19.5). Finally, MBAC (OR 9.25; 95%CI 1.12–76.2), MAP (OR 5.54; 95%CI 1.94–15.1), and MPC (OR 3.61; 95%CI 1.5–8.7) correlated with stroke of other etiologies. Conclusions: A relationship exists between DWI and stroke subtype

    Risk and impact of stroke across 38 countries and territories of the Americas from 1990 to 2021: a population-based trends analysis from the Global Burden of Disease Study 2021
    (2025) Martinez, Ramón; Munoz Venturelli, Paula; Ordunez, Pero; Fregni, Felipe; Abanto, Carlos; Alet, Matias; Alvarez, Tony; Amaya, Pablo; Ameriso, Sebastian; Arauz, Antonio; Barboza, Miguel; Bayona, Hernán; Ortiz, Antonio; Calleja, Juan; Cano, Vanessa; Carbonera, Leonardo; Carrillo, Rodrigo; Corredor, Angel; De Souza, Ana; Jimenez, Claudio; Lanas, Fernando; Martins, Sheila; Navia, Víctor; Novarro, Nelson; Olavarría, Verónica V.; Ovbiagele, Bruce; Pachecho, Kevin; Pontes, Octavio; Pujol, Virginia; Rabinstein, Alejandro; Rosales, Julieta; Rosende, Andrés; Sampaio, Gisele; Saposnik, Gustavo; Sen, Souvik; Testai, Fernando; Urrutia, Victor; Anderson, Craig; Lavados, Pablo
    Background: Despite substantial declines in burden over time, stroke remains a public health threat in the Americas. This study aimed to assess the current magnitude, trends, and disparities in the estimates of stroke burden by sex and age in the Americas from 1990 to 2021. Methods: Estimates from the Global Burden of Disease, Injuries and Risk Factors Study 2021 were used to analyze incidence, prevalence, mortality, years of life lost due to premature death, years lived with disabilities, and disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) caused by stroke and its major subtypes stratified by age, and sex in the Americas from 1990 to 2021. We used Joinpoint regression analysis to estimate the average annual percent change (AAPC) of stroke mortality and disease burden outcomes and assessed trends. Findings: In 2021, there were 1.1 million (95% uncertainty interval: 1.0-1.2) new cases, 12.9 million (12.3-13.7) prevalent cases, 0.5 million (0.5-0.6) deaths, and 11.4 million (10.6-12.1) DALYs due to stroke in the Americas. The absolute number of stroke burden outcomes increased from 1990 to 2021, but their corresponding age-standardized rates significantly declined. A deceleration in reduction rates of burden outcomes for all strokes and most stroke subtypes occurred over the last decade, with pronounced difference between sexes mainly in incidence among younger groups. From 2015 to 2021, trends in incidence rates from all stroke and stroke subtypes reversed to increase in most age groups, and strikingly, trends in mortality and DALY rates from ischemic stroke among younger populations reversed to upward with AAPC over 1.4%. A substantial number of countries contributed to these increasing trends. Interpretation: Regionally, the annual number of stroke cases and deaths significantly increased from 1990 to 2021, despite reductions in age-standardized rates. The declining pace in age-standardized stroke rates has decelerated in recent years, while trends in incidence, and ischemic stroke mortality and DALY among middle-aged adults and adults, reversed towards upward in the period 2015-2021. Further studies are needed to understand the determinants of this recent pattern and identify the most cost-effective interventions to stem this alarming trend. Funding: There was no funding source for this study.
