Cerebral Small Vessel Diseases and Sleep Related Strokes
2020
Abstract Background and Purpose: Sleep related Stroke (SRS) is common and has been associated with cerebral small vessel diseases (SVD) in ischemic strokes (ISs). We tested the hypothesis that SRS is associated with SVD in both ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke. Methods: Prospectively collected data from patients consecutively enrolled after intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) related to SVD or after IS were analyzed. Symptom onset was recorded as SRS versus awake. Each ICH was grouped according to lobar and deep locations. The IS cohort was etiologically characterized based on the Causative Classification of Stroke system. Frequencies of SRS within and between ICH and IS cohorts as well as its associations (etiology, risk factors) were analyzed. Results: We analyzed 1812 IS (mean age 67.9 years ± 15.9 years, 46.4% female) and 1038 ICH patients (mean age 72.5 years ± 13.0 years, 45.4% female). SRS was significantly more common among SVD-related ICH patients (n = 276, 26.6%) when compared to all IS (n = 363, 20.0%, P
