Abstract:
Objective To investigate the factors affecting cerebral vasospasm in elderly patients af-ter interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms,and to develop a nomogram prediction model.Methods A total of 307 elderly patients with intracranial aneurysms who underwent inter-ventional embolization in our hospital from May 2021 to May 2023 were recruited,and according to the occurrence of postoperative cerebral vasospasm or not,they were divided into a cerebral vasospasm group(n=63)and a non-cerebral vasospasm group(n=244).The general clinical data were compared between two groups.Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to identify the risk factors for postoperative cerebral vasospasm in elderly patients with in-tracranial aneurysms,and then a nomogram prediction model was constructed.Results There were significant differences between the two groups in terms of age,Hunt-Hess grade,Fisher grade,and time window for surgical treatment(P<0.01).The cerebral vasospasm group had sig-nificantly higher WBC count and IL-1β and Caspase-3 levels than the non-cerebral vasospasm group(P<0.01).Univariate logistics regression analysis showed that seven indicators,that is,aged≥65 years,Hunt-Hess grade Ⅲ-Ⅵ,Fisher grade Ⅲ-Ⅵ,later surgical start time and in-creased WBC count and IL-1β and Caspase-3 levels were risk factors for postoperative cerebral vasospasm(P<0.05).Multivariate logistics regression analysis indicated that above seven indica-tors were still independent risk factors for postoperative cerebral vasospasm(OR=11.372,95%CI:4.032-32.073,P=0.000;OR=12.415,95%CI:4.979-30.959,P=0.000;OR=9.568,95%CI:3.945-23.206,P=0.000;OR=2.898,95%CI:1.217-6.901,P=0.016;OR=1.762,95%CI:1.125-2.761,P=0.013;OR=1.153,95%CI:1.035-1.283,P=0.009).ROC curve analysis re-vealed that the AUC value of the nomogram model in predicting postoperative cerebral vasospasm was 0.934,with a sensitivity of 85.40%and a specificity of 90.50%.Conclusion Aged≥65 years,Hunt-Hess grade Ⅲ-Ⅵ,Fisher grade Ⅲ-Ⅵ,later surgical start time and increased WBC count and IL-1β and Caspase-3 levels have adverse effects on postoperative cerebral vasospasm in in eld-erly patients after interventional embolization of intracranial aneurysms.The nomogram model based on these factors shows certain efficacy in evaluating the occurrence of cerebral vasospasm.
