Associations of cerebral perfusion with infarct patterns and early neurological outcomes in symptomatic intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis by Xiangming Xu, Linfang Lan, Zhuhao Li, Wenli Zhou, Jing Yang, Xinyi Leng, Yuhua Fan

“…Patients with a favorable early neurological outcome exhibited smaller volumes of penumbra and penumbra-core mismatch at baseline. A multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that penumbra (defined by Tmax of >4 s)-core mismatch volume of >15 mL was independently associated with a lower chance of achieving a favorable early neurological outcome (adjusted odds ratio, 0.323; 95% confidence interval, 0.121–0.866; p = 0.03).ConclusionHemodynamic compromise likely underlies borderzone and territorial cortical/subcortical infarcts in patients with sICAS. …”
