Risk factors for ruptured intracranial aneurysms

Abstract: Background & objectives:The treatment of unruptured intracranial aneurysms (IAs) remains controversial; the ability to predict the risk of rupture for an aneurysm would be of clinical value. The aim of this study was to determine and evaluate the predictive value of the risk factors of IA rupture.Methods:This retrospective study involved 379 consecutive patients with 441 aneurysms between August 2011 and July 2014. Based on clinical data and computed tomography angiography findings, the potential of risk facto… Show more

“…First, the sample size was relatively small, which may have contributed to false associations due to limited statistical power; therefore, it is important to use larger studies to further verify the association between the LOX family genes and aSAH. Second, we could not modify the morphological factors for multivariate analysis due to patients with two or more aneurysms in the multiple IA group; however, considering irregular aneurysms are more likely to rupture than regular aneurysms, and irregular aneurysms were more common in the ruptured group [41,42]. Hence, we suggest the univariate analysis results of multiple IA ruptures may provide a reference for multiple IA etiological research.…”

“…Irregular morphology of aneurysm has been widely recognized as a risk factor for rupture. 19 20 However, the relationship between IPR and the shape of aneurysm is still controversial. Li et al found that irregular morphology was an independent predictor of IPR in patients with unruptured cerebral aneurysms.…”

“…About 2% to 3% of the general population carries an unruptured IA, whereas about 30% of the IA patients suffer from several aneurysms. [22][23][24][25] With the increased application of noninvasive imaging, the detection rate of these IA has gradually increased. Upon the diagnosis of an unruptured aneurysm, an evaluation will be carried out to assess the likelihood of aneurysm rupture.…”
