However, haemorrhagic risk brought by this target level (&lt;1.8 mmol/L) or even lower level (&lt;1.4 mmol/L) of LDL-C should also be concerned. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate whether low LDL-C could increase the intracranial haemorrhage risk following IS.Methods Patients who had an IS from China Stroke Center Alliance programme with complete baseline information were prospectively enrolled. 793 572 patients who had an IS were categorised into 6 groups according to LDL-C level (&lt;1.40 mmol/L, 1.40–1.79 mmol/L, 1.80–2.59 mmol/L, 2.60–2.99 mmol/L, 3.00–4.89 mmol/L, ≥4.90 mmol/L). The study outcome was defined as intracranial haemorrhage identified during hospitalisation. Logistic regression model was used to examine the association between different LDL-C levels and risk of intracranial haemorrhage.Results Compared with patients of LDL-C=1.80–2.59 mmol/L, both subgroups of LDL-C&lt;1.40 mmol/L and LDL-C=1.40–1.79 mmol/L showed significantly higher risk of intracranial haemorrhage (OR=1.26, 95% CI=1.18 to 1.35; OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.14 to 1.30, respectively). Interaction effect was found to exist between the subgroups of intravenous thrombolytic therapy (p=0.04), rather than the subgroups of age, sex and body mass index. Moreover, the sensitivity analyses indicated that even patients who had an IS with minor stroke still suffered from the increased intracranial haemorrhage risk related to low LDL-C level.Conclusions Among patients who had an IS, the low LDL-C level (&lt;1.4 mmol/L or &lt;1.8 mmol/L) at baseline is associated with increased risk of intracranial haemorrhage during acute stage. While actively lowering LDL-C level for patients who had an IS, clinicians should also concern about the haemorrhagic risk associated with low LDL-C level."/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Jie Xu"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Zimo Chen"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Meng Wang"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Jinglin Mo"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Jing Jing"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Gulbahram Yalkun"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Liye Dai"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Xia Meng"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Hao Li"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Zixiao Li"/><meta name="DC.Contributor" content="Yongjun Wang"/><meta name="DC.Format" content="text/html"/><meta name="DC.Identifier" content="10.1136/svn-2022-001612"/><meta name="DC.Language" content="en"/><meta name="DC.Publisher" content="BMJ Publishing Group Ltd"/><meta name="DC.AccessRights" content="open-access"/><meta name="DC.Title" content="Low LDL-C level and intracranial haemorrhage risk after ischaemic stroke: a prospective cohort study"/><meta name="DC.Description" content="Background and purpose The Treat Stroke to Target trial has confirmed the benefit of targeting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) of &lt;1.8 mmol/L in patients who had an ischaemic stroke (IS).

trial has confirmed the benefit of targeting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) of &lt;1.8 mmol/L in patients who had an ischaemic stroke (IS). However, haemorrhagic risk brought by this target level (&lt;1.8 mmol/L) or even lower level (&lt;1.4 mmol/L) of LDL-C should also be concerned. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate whether low LDL-C could increase the intracranial haemorrhage risk following IS.</p></div><div id="sec-2" class="subsection"><p id="p-3"><strong>Methods</strong> Patients who had an IS from China Stroke Center Alliance programme with complete baseline information were prospectively enrolled. 793 572 patients who had an IS were categorised into 6 groups according to LDL-C level (&lt;1.40 mmol/L, 1.40–1.79 mmol/L, 1.80–2.59 mmol/L, 2.60–2.99 mmol/L, 3.00–4.89 mmol/L, ≥4.90 mmol/L). The study outcome was defined as intracranial haemorrhage identified during hospitalisation. Logistic regression model was used to examine the association between different LDL-C levels and risk of intracranial haemorrhage.</p></div><div id="sec-3" class="subsection"><p id="p-4"><strong>Results</strong> Compared with patients of LDL-C=1.80–2.59 mmol/L, both subgroups of LDL-C&lt;1.40 mmol/L and LDL-C=1.40–1.79 mmol/L showed significantly higher risk of intracranial haemorrhage (OR=1.26, 95% CI=1.18 to 1.35; OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.14 to 1.30, respectively). Interaction effect was found to exist between the subgroups of intravenous thrombolytic therapy (p=0.04), rather than the subgroups of age, sex and body mass index. Moreover, the sensitivity analyses indicated that even patients who had an IS with minor stroke still suffered from the increased intracranial haemorrhage risk related to low LDL-C level.</p></div><div id="sec-4" class="subsection"><p id="p-5"><strong>Conclusions</strong> Among patients who had an IS, the low LDL-C level (&lt;1.4 mmol/L or &lt;1.8 mmol/L) at baseline is associated with increased risk of intracranial haemorrhage during acute stage. While actively lowering LDL-C level for patients who had an IS, clinicians should also concern about the haemorrhagic risk associated with low LDL-C level.</p></div><button data-testid="back-to-top-button" class="visible-link text-bmj-blue-600 hover:text-bmj-blue-700 focus-visible:border-bmj-silver-500 mt-[16px] rounded-md focus-visible:border-[1px] focus-visible:outline-none">Back to top</button></div><div class="article-body-sections wrap-urls md:[&amp;_h2]:text-[2.125rem]" data-testid="article-body-section"><section id="sec-5"><h2 class="">Introduction</h2><p id="p-6">For secondary prevention, patients who had an ischaemic stroke (IS) have been recommended to receive lipid-lowering therapy to reduce the recurrence risk, with evidence from the Stroke Prevention by Aggressive Reduction in Cholesterol Levels (SPARCL) study.<a id="xref-ref-1-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-1">1</a> Previously, it remained controversial about the target level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) control in secondary prevention for IS of atherosclerotic origin.<a id="xref-ref-2-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-2">2</a> Recently, data from Treat Stroke to Target trial demonstrated that to stipulate patients who had an IS with a target LDL-C level of less than 1.8 mmol/L (70 mg/dL) can significantly reduce risk of subsequent cardiovascular events than those with a target range of 2.4–2.9 mmol/L (90–110 mg/L).<a id="xref-ref-3-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-3">3</a> Furthermore, guidelines for lipid management also updated new target value for LDL-C lowering therapy of 1.4 mmol/L (55 mg/dL) for patients with high cardiovascular risk.<a id="xref-ref-4-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-4">4 5</a> </p><p id="p-7">Therefore, it is plausible to speculate a more strict target level than 1.8 mmol/L for secondary prevention of patients who had an IS.

Compared with the patients of LDL-C=1.80–2.59 mmol/L (70–100 mg/L), patients of low LDL-C level (1.40–1.79 mmol/L (50–70 mg/L) or &lt;1.4 mmol/L (&lt;50 mg/L)) exhibited significantly higher risk of new intracranial haemorrhage occurrence.</p><p id="p-32">Our study with large sample size confers certain statistical power to elucidate the issue of intracranial haemorrhage in patients who had an IS across various LDL-C ranges, which also adds evidence from real world. Moreover, our study targets at the patients who had an IS, in whom the low LDL-C level has been verified to generate benefits in long term but the evidence remains unknown during the acute stage. From our study, it is indicated that the haemorrhagic risk related to low LDL-C level may exist during the acute stage of IS. Thus, it is necessary to fully evaluate the haemorrhagic risk before prescribing the intensive lipid-lowering therapy to patients with acute IS. Notably, the risk-benefit relationship of low LDL-C level was not demonstrated in our study. Therefore, our conclusions should not be interpreted to contradict the use of lipid-lowering therapy, such as statins, in all patients during the acute stage of IS.</p><p id="p-33">Recently, several randomised clinical trials have demonstrated that an addition of PCSK9 monoclonal antibodies to statin therapy can provide a further reduction in risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease including IS, which is directly and positively correlated with the incrementally achieved LDL-C reduction.<a id="xref-ref-13-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-13">13–15</a> In addition, studies on clinical safety of the very low achieved LDL-C values have proved reassuring. However, considering the small sample size of incident cases of haemorrhagic events (incident cases of Further Cardiovascular Outcomes Research with PCSK9 Inhibition in Subjects with Elevated Risk: 54, incident cases of ODYSSEY OUTCOMES: 25), it is worth noting that these currently available data is still limited.<a id="xref-ref-14-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-14">14 15</a> A recent meta-analysis of PCSK9 trials also showed that the potential effects of PCSK9 remain inconclusive due to the lack of statistical power of rarer events such as haemorrhagic events.<a id="xref-ref-16-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-16">16</a> Accordingly, data from real world with abundant sample size to ensure the statistical power is desirable. Actually, there have always been warnings that ‘excessively low blood lipid levels may increase the risk of haemorrhagic events’.<a id="xref-ref-6-2" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-6">6</a> During a follow-up of 9 years, one prospective study including 96 043 participants concluded that there was a significant correlation between lower LDL-C and higher risk of intracerebral haemorrhage when LDL-C&lt;70 mg/dL.<a id="xref-ref-17-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-17">17</a> Besides, a prospective cohort study among 27 937 women observed that LDL-C levels&lt;70 mg/dL and low triglyceride levels were associated with increased risk of haemorrhagic stroke over a 19-year period.<a id="xref-ref-18-1" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-18">18</a> However, these studies have not provided evidence on risk of intracranial haemorrhage following IS. In the current study with nearly 800 000 patients, we demonstrated that the low level of baseline LDL-C was significantly associated with subsequent risk of intracranial haemorrhage during acute stage of IS.</p><p id="p-34">Besides the LDL-C, a number of other risk factors have also been identified to involve in intracranial haemorrhage following IS.<a id="xref-ref-6-3" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-6">6 19</a> Among them, our study further showed that age may have a significant interaction effect with lower LDL-C level in affecting intracranial haemorrhage risk. Stratified by age category (&lt;65 years vs ≥65 years), older patients who had an IS with lower LDL-C level suffered from higher intracranial haemorrhage risk, indicating that more care should be taken when considering a strict LDL-C control among older patients who had an IS. Moreover, our study also observed the effect of low LDL-C level on increased risk of intracranial haemorrhage in patients who did not receive thrombolytics and patients with minor stroke (NIHSS&lt;4). Hence, it is indicated that for the certain populations who were considered to be at low risk of intracranial haemorrhage,<a id="xref-ref-6-4" class="xref-bibr" href="#ref-6">6 20</a> clinicians should still concern about the risk of bleeding related to low LDL-C level.</p><p id="p-35">We should also acknowledge several limitations. First, the CSCA is an administrative database, providing large sample size but limited clinical information. Thus, several clinical variables are currently lacked in most of the participants, such as the information on type of anticoagulants during hospitalisation, mechanical thrombectomy and functional outcome. Second, this cohort only recorded the outcomes during the short follow-up in hospitalisation, which prevented us from further investigating the long-term risk of intracranial haemorrhage under different LDL-C levels. Thus, the bleeding risk related to low LDL-C level needs to be further verified by radiographic follow-up for longer periods. Besides, the CSCA study only collected LDL-C level on admission, lacking the information on long term LDL-C level before the occurrence of IS. Third, clinicians do not routinely screen all patients who had an IS with repeated neuroimaging such as CT or MRI during hospitalisation, and asymptomatic haemorrhagic events might be ignored in clinical work. Thus, as a registry study based on medical records, it is possible that most of the intracranial haemorrhage recorded by CSCA programme was symptomatic. As a result, the event rate recorded by CSCA might be lower than what actually occurred. Moreover, the lack of the information on neuroimaging (MRI of the brain with T2* or SWAN) also prevented us from analysing the relationship between LDL-C level and haemorrhagic tendency, such as old cerebral haemorrhage and cerebral microbleed. Fourth, since this study included Chinese patients only, it may limit the generalisability of the conclusions to other populations.</p></section><button data-testid="back-to-top-button" class="visible-link text-bmj-blue-600 hover:text-bmj-blue-700 focus-visible:border-bmj-silver-500 mt-[16px] rounded-md focus-visible:border-[1px] focus-visible:outline-none">Back to top</button></div><div class="article-body-sections wrap-urls md:[&amp;_h2]:text-[2.125rem]" data-testid="article-body-section"><section id="sec-12"><h2 class="">Conclusions</h2><p id="p-36">In summary, our study warns that during the acute stage of IS, low LDL-C level (LDL-C&lt;1.4 mmol/L or LDL-C&lt;1.8 mmol/L) is accompanied with increased risk of intracranial haemorrhage.

However, haemorrhagic risk brought by this target level (\u003c1.8 mmol/L) or even lower level (\u003c1.4 mmol/L) of LDL-C should also be concerned. In this study, we aimed to demonstrate whether low LDL-C could increase the intracranial haemorrhage risk following IS.Methods Patients who had an IS from China Stroke Center Alliance programme with complete baseline information were prospectively enrolled. 793 572 patients who had an IS were categorised into 6 groups according to LDL-C level (\u003c1.40 mmol/L, 1.40–1.79 mmol/L, 1.80–2.59 mmol/L, 2.60–2.99 mmol/L, 3.00–4.89 mmol/L, ≥4.90 mmol/L). The study outcome was defined as intracranial haemorrhage identified during hospitalisation. Logistic regression model was used to examine the association between different LDL-C levels and risk of intracranial haemorrhage.Results Compared with patients of LDL-C=1.80–2.59 mmol/L, both subgroups of LDL-C\u003c1.40 mmol/L and LDL-C=1.40–1.79 mmol/L showed significantly higher risk of intracranial haemorrhage (OR=1.26, 95% CI=1.18 to 1.35; OR=1.22, 95% CI=1.14 to 1.30, respectively).

Second, this cohort only recorded the outcomes during the short follow-up in hospitalisation, which prevented us from further investigating the long-term risk of intracranial haemorrhage under different LDL-C levels. Thus, the bleeding risk related to low LDL-C level needs to be further verified by radiographic follow-up for longer periods. Besides, the CSCA study only collected LDL-C level on admission, lacking the information on long term LDL-C level before the occurrence of IS. Third, clinicians do not routinely screen all patients who had an IS with repeated neuroimaging such as CT or MRI during hospitalisation, and asymptomatic haemorrhagic events might be ignored in clinical work. Thus, as a registry study based on medical records, it is possible that most of the intracranial haemorrhage recorded by CSCA programme was symptomatic. As a result, the event rate recorded by CSCA might be lower than what actually occurred. Moreover, the lack of the information on neuroimaging (MRI of the brain with T2* or SWAN) also prevented us from analysing the relationship between LDL-C level and haemorrhagic tendency, such as old cerebral haemorrhage and cerebral microbleed. Fourth, since this study included Chinese patients only, it may limit the generalisability of the conclusions to other populations.2b:T871,"])</script><script>self.__next_f.push([1,"\u003chtml\u003e\u003chead\u003e\u003c/head\u003e\u003cbody\u003e\u003cdiv class=\"section fn-group\" id=\"fn-group-1\"\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli class=\"fn-other\" id=\"fn-3\"\u003e\u003cp id=\"p-37\"\u003eJX and ZC contributed equally.\u003c/p\u003e\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli class=\"fn-other\" id=\"fn-4\"\u003e\u003cp id=\"p-38\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"fn-label font-bold\"\u003eContributors:\u003c/span\u003e All authors report no disclosures relevant to the manuscript.
