Comparison of the Chinese ischemic stroke subclassification and Trial of Org 10172 in acute stroke treatment systems in minor stroke

Abstract: BackgroundThe underlying causes of minor stroke are difficult to assess. Here, we evaluate the reliability of the Chinese Ischemic Stroke Subclassification (CISS) system in patients with minor stroke, and compare it to the Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment (TOAST) system.MethodsA total of 320 patients with minor stroke were retrospectively registered and categorized into different subgroups of the CISS and TOAST by two neurologists. Inter- and intra-rater agreement with the two systems were assessed… Show more

“…To explore whether the effects of RAGE and HMGB1 gene variants are confined to a specific subtype or related to overall risk, we further separated the IS patient groups into stroke subgroups based on the CISS system [ 28 ]. The CISS system, which further classifies patients of minor stroke into known and precise aetiological categories, exhibits greater reliability for individual treatment and might therefore be more appropriate for use with Chinese patients with minor stroke [ 29 ]. As shown in Table 5 , when the population was stratified according to the CISS classification system, the carriers of the TT allele at the RAGE rs2070600 variant appeared to have a higher risk of stroke of the large artery atherosclerosis (LAA) subtype compared with the controls (P = 0.036).…”

“… 12 , 13 , 14 Additionally, the TOAST classification scheme has low interobserver reliability for CS, assigns more strokes as CSs than other classification schemes, and does not optimally describe the overlap between stroke mechanisms in individual patients. 12 , 15 , 16 , 17 Furthermore, some clinicians may be hesitant to assign a etiologic subtype, particularly if the stroke evaluation is incomplete at the time of hospital discharge. All of these issues may be barriers to the accurate documentation and reporting of etiologic stroke subtype in GWTG, contributing to the low overall rate of etiologic subtype reporting and the observed variability across hospitals.…”

“…Based on the clinical data, the patients were classi ed by the standard of Trial of org10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment (TOAST) [11]. The concepts used in this classi cation are mainly derived from the Harvard stroke registration classi cation and the National Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke Database of the United States [11][12][13]. According to the criteria, the patients included in this study were mainly divided into the following types: small-artery occlusion (SAO), large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) and cardioembolism (CE).…”
