RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the application value of multimodal MRI imaging in early neurological deterioration (END) and clinical prognosis prediction of acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:A total of 200 AIS patients admitted to the Chengde Central Hospital from October 2019 to October 2022 were selected as the study subjects. Based on whether END occurred within 7 days of enrollment, there were 40 cases in the occurrence group and 160 cases in the non occurrence group. The influencing factors of END occurrence in AIS patients and the predictive value of multimodal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) parameters on END were analyzed; According to the modified Rankin (mRS) score, patients were divided into good prognosis and poor prognosis groups, and the impact of multimodal MRI imaging parameters on the risk of poor prognosis in AIS patients was analyzed.Results:There were statistically significant differences in the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC), cerebral blood flow (CBF), and their differences before and after thrombolysis in multimodal MRI imaging parameters between the END group and the non END group, as well as in the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score at admission, age, and time from onset to admission (all P<0.05). The difference between ADC and CBF before and after thrombolysis, time from onset to admission, NIHSS score at admission, and age were all independent influencing factors for the occurrence of END in AIS patients (all P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the combined prediction of the difference between ADC and CBF before and after thrombolysis for the occurrence of END in AIS patients was 0.924, which was higher than that predicted by a single indicator ( P<0.05). The incidence of poor prognosis in patients with END was significantly higher than that in patients without END ( P<0.05). The risk of poor prognosis in AIS patients with a difference of less than <45.83×10 -9 mm 2/s before and after ADC thrombolysis was 3.136 times higher than that in patients with ≥45.83×10 -6 mm 2/s. The risk of poor prognosis in AIS patients with a difference of less than 10.52 ml/(min·100 g) before and after ADC thrombolysis was 2.640 times higher than that in patients with ≥10.52 ml/(min·100 g). Conclusions:Multimodal MRI imaging can be used for END evaluation in AIS patients and can provide reference for clinical prognosis evaluation.
