OBJECTIVES: There is a delicate homeostatic balance between the central nervous system and immune system. Stroke triggers an immunodepressive state to suppress a potential immune reaction directed against neuroglial tissue; however, this supposedly protective response inadvertently results in an infection-prone, and thereby a pro-inflammatory setting. In this study, we assessed the magnitude of cerebral volume loss in the unaffected contralateral hemisphere following stroke, and determined its relationship with inflammatory cascades.
METHODS: The volume of the hemisphere contralateral to the ischemic insult was measured on admission and follow-up MRI's in 50 ischemic stroke patients. Information related to clinical features, infectious complications, and markers of inflammation (erythrocyte sedimentation rate, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, C-reactive protein) were prospectively collected, and their relationship with hemispheric volume change was evaluated using bivariate and multivariate statistics.
RESULTS: The contralateral hemisphere volume decreased by a median (interquartile range) of 14 (4-32) mL after a follow-up duration of 101 (63-123) days (p < .001); the volume reduction was 0.8 (0.2-1.8) % per month with respect to baseline. Old age, atrial fibrillation, stroke severity, C-reactive protein level, neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio, and development of infections during hospitalization were significantly associated with volume loss (p < .05). Stroke severity (NIHSS score or infarct volume) and inflammation related parameters (neutrophil/lymphocyte ratio or systemic infections) remained independently and positively associated with volume loss in multivariate regression models.
CONCLUSIONS: Cerebral tissue changes following stroke are not limited to the ischemic hemisphere. Apart from stroke severity, a pro-inflammatory state and post-stroke infections contribute to cerebral volume loss in the non-ischemic hemisphere.
