DCE-MRI blood–brain barrier assessment in acute ischemic stroke
Abstract
Objective To quantitatively evaluate blood-brain barrier changes in ischemic stroke patients using dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI. Methods We examined 54 stroke patients (clinicaltrials.gov NCT00715533, NCT02077582) in a 3T MRI scanner within 48 hours after symptom onset. Twenty-eight patients had a follow-up examination on day 5-7. DCE T1 mapping and Patlak analysis were employed to assess BBB permeability changes. Results Median stroke K trans values (0.7 × 10 -3 min -1 [interquartile range (IQR) 0.4-1.8] × 10 -3 min -1 ) were more than 3-fold higher compared to median mirror K trans values (0.2 × 10 -3 min -1 , IQR 0.1-0.7 × 10 -3 min -1 , p -3 min -1 , IQR 0.8-4.6 × 10 -3 min -1 , p trans values decreased over time with a clear interaction of timepoint and stroke/mirror side (p trans values were 2.5 times lower than in hemorrhagic transformed regions (0.7 vs 1.8 × 10 -3 min -1 ; p = 0.055). There was no association between stroke K trans values and the delay from symptom onset to baseline examination, age, and presence of hyperintense acute reperfusion marker. Conclusion BBB in acute stroke patients can be successfully assessed quantitatively. The decrease of BBB permeability in unaffected regions at follow-up may be an indicator of global BBB leakage even in vessel territories remote from the index infarct.

“Disruption of the BBB, using techniques such as osmotic disruption, biochemical disruption, and ultrasound-mediated disruption, is effective to introduce drugs into the brain; however, these transient BBB openings also allows for the leakage of plasma proteins into the brain, leading to neurotoxicity, vascular pathology, and chronic neuropathologic changes in the brain (1, 7, 11).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
