Abstract 75: Hemorrhagic Transformation After Acute Ischemic Stroke Due to a Large Vessel Occlusion is Associated With Less Treatment Benefit
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Introduction: Intracranial hemorrhage after acute ischemic stroke patients manifests as natural progression or as a complication of treatment with potential subsequent neurological deterioration. Currently it is unclear whether these hemorrhagic transformations (HT) contribute to the poorer functional outcomes observed in patients with large infarcts. The purpose of this study is to assess the association of HT with follow-up infarct volume (FIV) and functional outcome at 90 days after AIS. Additionally, we determined whether the development of HT was associated with a diminished endovascular therapy (EVT) effect. Methods: All patients from the HERMES collaboration with follow-up imaging were included. HERMES is pooled data from seven randomized controlled trials that assessed the efficacy and safety of EVT compared to usual care. Patients with HT were identified according to the ECASS classification and FIV was assessed on CT or MRI. Infarct and hemorrhage were included in the FIV. We assessed functional outcome using the modified Rankin Scale 90 days after stroke onset. Ordinal logistic regression with adjustment for potential confounders was used to determine the association of HT and FIV with functional outcome. Results: Of all included patients with follow-up imaging (n=1665), 42% had HT (n=698). Before and after adjustment for confounders HT and FIV were associated with a shift in the direction of poorer functional outcome (aOR:0.71,95%CI:0.58-0.86 and aOR:0.99,95%CI:0.99-0.99). EVT was beneficial in patients with and without HT, but effect was greater in patients without (aOR:1.70,95%CI:1.27-2.28 vs. aOR:2.51,95%CI:1.97-3.20)(figure 1.) Conclusions: In this analysis, patients with HT after AIS were less likely to have good functional outcome compared to those without HT, independent of the FIV. While the EVT effect was slightly diminished in patients who developed HT, EVT was always of significant benefit.

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.
