| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated prevalence, background characteristics, and prognosis of patients with vertebrobasilar ectasia in patients with subcortical small strokes using the dataset of the international multicenter trial of SPS3. No associations were found between vertebrobasilar ectasia and incidence of stroke or major bleeding, however, mortality was higher in patients with vertebrobasilar ectasia than others. We also investigated factors associated with vertebrobasilar ectasia in patients with acute ischemic stroke in our country. Prevalence of vertebrobasilar ectasia was lower than SPS3 dataset and small vessel occlusion was more frequently observed than other stroke subtype as previously reported. We conducted further analyses in the relationship between signal intensity ratio of each intracranial vessel and outcome, however found no significant association.
