Abstract 113: The Intracerebral Haemorrhage Acutely Decreasing Arterial Pressure Trial (ICH ADAPT): Final Results.
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: Acute blood pressure (BP) reduction aimed at attenuation of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) expansion might also result in a harmful compromise of cerebral blood flow (CBF) in the region surrounding the hematoma. We tested the hypothesis that CBF in acute ICH patients is affected by BP reduction. Methods: Seventy-five patients with spontaneous ICH with baseline systolic BP>150 mmHg were randomly assigned to an intravenous antihypertensive treatment protocol (labetalol, hydralazine and enalapril) targeting a systolic BP of either <150 mmHg or <180 mmHg within 24 hours of symptom onset. Patients underwent CT perfusion (CTP) imaging 2 hours post-randomization. The primary endpoint was relative CBF (rCBF) within the 1 cm perihematoma region. Results: Treatment groups were balanced with respect to baseline systolic BP: 182±20 mmHg (<150 mmHg target group, n=39) vs. 184±25 mmHg (<180 mmHg target group, n=36, p=0.60), hematoma volume: 25.6±30.8 vs. 26.9±25.2 ml (p=0.66) and median (IQR) time to randomization: 7.8 (13.5) and 8.5 (11.9) h (p=0.94). Mean systolic BP two hours after randomization was significantly lower in the <150 mmHg target group (140±19 vs 162±12 mmHg in the <180 target group, p<0.001). Perihematoma CBF (38.7±11.9 ml/100g/min) was lower than in contralateral homologous regions (44.1±11.1 ml/100g/min, p<0.001) in all patients. The primary endpoint of perihematoma rCBF in the <150 mmHg target group (0.86±0.12) was not significantly lower than that in the <180 mmHg group (0.89±0.09, p=0.19; absolute difference 0.03 95% CI -0.018, 0.078). There was no relationship between the magnitude of the BP change and perihematoma rCBF in the <150 mmHg (R=0.00005, 95% CI -0.001, 0.001) or <180 mmHg target groups (R=0.000, 95% CI -0.001, 0.001). There were no effects on rCBF in patients treated within 6 hours (0.78±0.22 in the <150 mmHg group and 0.88±0.10 in the <180 mmHg group, p=0.08) or in those treated 6-24 hours after onset (0.85±0.21 in the <150 mmHg group and 0.89±0.10 in the <180 mmHg group, p=0.46). Conclusions: Rapid BP lowering following ICH does not reduce perihematoma CBF. These physiological data support the safety of acute and aggressive BP reduction following ICH.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
