Abstract
AbstractIn intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) with pathology-proven etiology, we performed a systematic review and meta-analysis to elucidate the association between cerebral amyloid angiopathy (CAA) and arteriolosclerosis, and directly compared MRI and pathological changes of markers of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). Studies enrolling primary ICH who had received an etiological diagnosis through biopsy or autopsy were searched using Ovid MEDLINE, PubMed, and Web of Science from inception to June 8, 2022. We extracted pathological changes of CSVD for each patient whenever available. Patients were grouped into CAA + arteriolosclerosis, strict CAA, and strict arteriolosclerosis subgroups. Of 4155 studies identified, 28 studies with 456 ICH patients were included. The frequency of lobar ICH (p<0.001) and total microbleed number (p=0.015) differed among patients with CAA + arteriolosclerosis, strict CAA, and strict arteriolosclerosis. Concerning pathology, severe CAA was associated with arteriolosclerosis (OR 6.067, 95% CI 1.107–33.238, p=0.038), although this association was not statistically significant after adjusting for age and sex. Additionally, the total microbleed number (median 15 vs. 0, p=0.006) was higher in ICH patients with CAA evidence than those without CAA. The pathology of CSVD imaging markers was mostly investigated in CAA-ICH. There was inconsistency concerning CAA severity surrounding microbleeds. Small diffusion-weighted imaging lesions could be matched to acute microinfarct histopathologically. Studies that directly correlated MRI and pathology of lacunes, enlarged perivascular spaces, and atrophy were scarce. Arteriolosclerosis might be associated with severe CAA. The pathological changes of CSVD markers by ICH etiology are needed to be investigated further.
