Intracerebral haemorrhage laterality and associations with mood and pain: a MISTIE III substudy

Background The prognostic significance of the affected hemisphere in haemorrhagic stroke remains uncertain. We aimed to determine the relationship between the affected hemisphere (right or left) and differences in non-motor outcomes, including mood and pain, in patients with acute, supratentorial in...

description Background The prognostic significance of the affected hemisphere in haemorrhagic stroke remains uncertain. We aimed to determine the relationship between the affected hemisphere (right or left) and differences in non-motor outcomes, including mood and pain, in patients with acute, supratentorial intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH). These non-motor outcomes are often overlooked in studies following ICH but impact patient recovery and well-being.Methods A secondary prespecified analysis of the Minimally Invasive Surgery with Thrombolysis in Intracerebral Hemorrhage Evacuation (MISTIE) III study—a randomised, international, multicentre, placebo-controlled trial of participants with spontaneous, non-traumatic, supratentorial ICH of 30 mL or more that evaluated minimally invasive surgery with thrombolysis compared with standard medical care. Outcomes included EQ-5D three-level version (EQ-5D-3L, composite and individual non-motor components) and modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores at days 30, 180 and 365 post-ICH.Results A total of 493 participants were eligible for analysis at day 30 following ICH. In multivariable analyses, patients with right hemispheric ICH were more likely to report problems with pain and discomfort at days 30 (β=0.257 (95% CI 0.131, 0.383)), 180 (β=0.213 (95% CI 0.090, 0.336)) and 365 (β=0.209 (95% CI 0.090, 0.328)) post-ICH. Patients with right hemispheric ICH were also more likely to report problems with anxiety and depression at days 30 (β=0.160 (95% CI 0.030, 0.291)) and 180 (β=0.171 (95% CI 0.049, 0.293)) following ICH. There were no differences in mRS scores between patients with left or right-sided haemorrhages.Conclusions Right hemispheric lesions were associated with increased reports of mood-related symptoms (depression, anxiety) and pain in patients with acute ICH over time.Trial registration number NCT01827046.
