    <jats:sec><jats:title>Background</jats:title><jats:p> An indwelling urinary catheter (IUC) is often inserted to manage bladder dysfunction, but its impact on prognosis is uncertain. We aimed to determine the association of IUC use on clinical outcomes after acute stroke in the international, multi-center, cluster crossover, Head Positioning in Acute Stroke Trial (HeadPoST). </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods</jats:title><jats:p> Data were analyzed on HeadPoST participants (n = 11,093) randomly allocated to the lying-flat or sitting-up head position. Binomial, logistic regression, hierarchical mixed models were used to determine associations of early insertion of IUC within seven days post-randomization and outcomes of death or disability (defined as “poor outcome,” scores 3–6 on the modified Rankin scale) and any urinary tract infection at 90 days with adjustment of baseline and post-randomization management covariates. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p> Overall, 1167 (12%) patients had an IUC, but the frequency and duration of use varied widely across patients in different regions. IUC use was more frequent in older patients, and those with vascular comorbidity, greater initial neurological impairment (on the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale), and intracerebral hemorrhage as the underlying stroke type. IUC use was independently associated with poor outcome (adjusted odds ratio (aOR): 1.40, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.13–1.74), but not with urinary tract infection after adjustment for antibiotic treatment and stroke severity at hospital separation (aOR: 1.13, 95% CI: 0.59–2.18). The number exposed to IUC for poor outcome was 13. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions</jats:title><jats:p> IUC use is associated with a poor outcome after acute stroke. Further studies are required to inform appropriate use of IUC. </jats:p></jats:sec>

All patients were followed up for functional status and serious adverse events to 90 days. Logistic regression models were used to analyze 3 SBP summary measures postrandomization: attained (mean), variability (SD) in 1–24 hours, and magnitude of reduction in 1 hour. The primary outcome was a favorable shift on the modified Rankin Scale.

    <jats:sec><jats:title>Introduction</jats:title><jats:p> Reports vary on how sex influences the management and outcome from acute intracerebral haemorrhage. We aimed to quantify sex disparities in clinical characteristics, management, including response to blood pressure lowering treatment, and outcomes in patients with acute intracerebral haemorrhage, through interrogation of two large clinical trial databases. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Patients and Methods</jats:title><jats:p> Post-hoc pooled analysis of the Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Haemorrhage trials 1 and 2, where patients with a hypertensive response (systolic, 150–220 mmHg) after spontaneous intracerebral haemorrhage (&lt;6 h) were randomised to intensive (target &lt;140 mmHg &lt;1 h) or guideline-recommended (&lt;180 mmHg) blood pressure lowering treatment. The interaction of sex on early haematoma growth (24 h), death or major disability (modified Rankin scale scores 3–6 at 90 days), and effect of randomised treatment were determined in multivariable logistic regression models adjusted for baseline confounding variables. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results</jats:title><jats:p> In 3233 participants, 1191 (37%) were women who were significantly older, had higher baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale scores and smaller haematoma volumes compared to men. Men had higher three-month mortality (odds ratio 1.48, 95% confidence interval 1.10–2.00); however, there was no difference between women and men in the combined endpoint of death or major disability. There were no significant sex differences on mean haematoma growth or effect of randomised blood pressure lowering treatment. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Discussion</jats:title><jats:p> Men included in the Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Haemorrhage trials had more comorbidities, larger baseline haematoma volumes and higher mortality after adjustment for age, as compared with women. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion</jats:title><jats:p> Men included in the Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Haemorrhage trials had a greater odds of dying after intracerebral haemorrhage than women, which could not be readily explained by differing casemix or patterns of blood pressure management. </jats:p></jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Clinical trial registration</jats:title><jats:p> The Intensive Blood Pressure Reduction in Acute Cerebral Haemorrhage trials studies are registered with ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT00226096 and NCT00716079). </jats:p></jats:sec>

    <jats:p>&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Background:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Patients with premorbid functional impairment are generally excluded from acute stroke trials. We aimed to determine the impact of including such patients in the Head Positioning in acute Stroke Trial (HeadPoST) and early additional impairment on outcomes. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Methods:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Post hoc analyses of HeadPoST, an international, cluster-randomized crossover trial of lying-flat versus sitting-up head positioning in acute stroke. Associations of early additional impairment, defined as change in modified Rankin scale (mRS) scores from premorbid levels (estimated at baseline) to Day 7 (“early ΔmRS”), and poor outcome (mRS score 3–6) at Day 90 were determined with generalized linear mixed model. Heterogeneity of the trial treatment effect was tested according to premorbid mRS scores 0–1 versus 2–5. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Results:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Of 8,285 patients (38.9% female, mean age 68 ± 13 years) with complete data, there were 1,984 (23.9%) with premorbid functional impairment (mRS 2–5). A significant linear association was evident for early ∆mRS and poor outcome (per 1-point increase in ΔmRS, adjusted odds ratio 1.20, 95% confidence interval 1.14–1.27; &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &amp;#x3c; 0.0001). Patients with greater premorbid functional impairment were less likely to develop additional impairment, but their risk of poor 90-day outcome significantly increased with increasing (worse) premorbid mRS scores (linear trend &lt;i&gt;p&lt;/i&gt; &amp;#x3c; 0.0001). There was no heterogeneity of the trial treatment effect by level of premorbid function. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Conclusions:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; Early poststroke functional impairment that exceeded premorbid levels was associated with worse 90-day outcome, and this association increased with greater premorbid functional impairment. Yet, including premorbid impaired patients in the HeadPoST did not materially affect the subsequent treatment effect. &lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;Clinical Trial Registration:&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt; HeadPoST is registered at http://www.ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02162017). </jats:p>

After multivariable adjustments, women with ischemic stroke had higher survival at 3–6 months (odds ratio [OR] 0.82, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.70–0.97), higher likelihood of disability (OR 1.20, 95% CI 1.06–1.36), and worse quality of life (weighted mean difference −0.07, 95% CI −0.09 to 0.04). For management, women were more likely to be admitted to an acute stroke unit (OR 1.17, 95% CI 1.01–1.34), but less likely to be intubated (OR 0.58, 95% CI 0.36–0.93), treated for fever (OR 0.82, 95% CI 0.70–0.95), or admitted to an intensive care unit (OR 0.83, 95% CI 0.74–0.93).
