Résumé

Patients with a left (LHS) or right hemispheric stroke (RHS) differ in terms of clinical symptoms due to lateralization of specific cortical functions. Studies on functional outcome after stroke and endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) comparing both hemispheres showed conflicting results so far. The impact of stroke laterality on patient-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after EVT has not yet been adequately addressed and still remains unclear. Consecutive stroke thrombectomy patients, derived from a multi-center, prospective registry (German Stroke Registry) between June 2015 and December 2019, were included in this study. At 90 days, outcome after EVT was assessed by the modified Rankin scale (mRS) and HRQoL using the European QoL-five dimensions questionnaire utility-index (EQ-5D-I; higher values indicate better HRQoL) in patients with LHS and RHS. Adjusted regression analysis was applied to evaluate the influence of stroke laterality on outcome after EVT. In total, 5683 patients were analyzed. Of these, 2953 patients (52.8%) had LHS and 2637 (47.2%) RHS. LHS patients had a higher baseline NIHSS (16 vs. 13, p < 0.001) and a higher ASPECTS (9 vs. 8, p < 0.001) compared to RHS patients. Among survivors, patients with LHS less frequently had a self-reported affected mobility (p = 0.037), suffered less often from pain (p = 0.04) and anxiety/depression (p = 0.032) three months after EVT. After adjusting for confounders (age, sex, baseline NIHSS), LHS was associated with a better HRQoL (ß coefficient 0.04, CI 95% 0.017-0.063; p = 0.001), and better functional outcome assessed by lower values on the mRS (ß coefficient - 0.109, CI 95% - 0.217-0.000; p = 0.049). Ninety days after EVT, LHS patients have a better functional outcome and HRQoL. Patients with RHS should be actively assessed and treated for pain, anxiety and depression to improve their HRQoL after EVT.

BACKGROUND BACKGROUND
Patients with a left (LHS) or right hemispheric stroke (RHS) differ in terms of clinical symptoms due to lateralization of specific cortical functions. Studies on functional outcome after stroke and endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) comparing both hemispheres showed conflicting results so far. The impact of stroke laterality on patient-reported health-related quality of life (HRQoL) after EVT has not yet been adequately addressed and still remains unclear.
METHODS METHODS
Consecutive stroke thrombectomy patients, derived from a multi-center, prospective registry (German Stroke Registry) between June 2015 and December 2019, were included in this study. At 90 days, outcome after EVT was assessed by the modified Rankin scale (mRS) and HRQoL using the European QoL-five dimensions questionnaire utility-index (EQ-5D-I; higher values indicate better HRQoL) in patients with LHS and RHS. Adjusted regression analysis was applied to evaluate the influence of stroke laterality on outcome after EVT.
RESULTS RESULTS
In total, 5683 patients were analyzed. Of these, 2953 patients (52.8%) had LHS and 2637 (47.2%) RHS. LHS patients had a higher baseline NIHSS (16 vs. 13, p < 0.001) and a higher ASPECTS (9 vs. 8, p < 0.001) compared to RHS patients. Among survivors, patients with LHS less frequently had a self-reported affected mobility (p = 0.037), suffered less often from pain (p = 0.04) and anxiety/depression (p = 0.032) three months after EVT. After adjusting for confounders (age, sex, baseline NIHSS), LHS was associated with a better HRQoL (ß coefficient 0.04, CI 95% 0.017-0.063; p = 0.001), and better functional outcome assessed by lower values on the mRS (ß coefficient - 0.109, CI 95% - 0.217-0.000; p = 0.049).
CONCLUSIONS CONCLUSIONS
Ninety days after EVT, LHS patients have a better functional outcome and HRQoL. Patients with RHS should be actively assessed and treated for pain, anxiety and depression to improve their HRQoL after EVT.
