Intro: Early Brain Injury (EBI) after non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a significant mediator of neurological injury, but the injury pathways and markers are not well understood. We hypothesized that the inflammatory mediator soluble ST2 (sST2) is associated with markers of EBI. Methods: We studied two independent cohorts, including 190 SAH patients in a discovery cohort and 50 patients in a replication cohort. Clinical markers of EBI included early loss of consciousness, Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score at 24 hours, and neurological deterioration within the first 72 hours (defined as a decrease in GCS ≥ 2 points). Radiographic markers included bicaudate index, clinically significant hydrocephalus requiring external ventricular drainage (EVD), and global cerebral edema. Serial plasma sST2 level was measured at early (3.5 ± 1.2 days post-hemorrhage), intermediate (7.8 ± 1.3 days post-hemorrhage), and late (13 ± 2.3 days post-hemorrhage) time points in the discovery cohort and daily during post-hemorrhage days 1-9 in the replication cohort. In the discovery cohort, the relationship between EBI markers and poor functional outcome (90-day modified Rankin Scale; mRS ≥ 3) was assessed using multivariable logistic regression. The association between sST2 level and EBI markers was evaluated using repeated measures analysis. In the replication cohort, associations were examined using an analysis of response profiles. Results: Clinical and radiographic markers of EBI, except for global edema, were each associated with functional outcome in univariate analysis. Of these EBI markers, independent predictors of poor outcome included 24-hour GCS (OR=5.76, 95% CI 2.31-14.4, p<0.001) and clinically significant hydrocephalus (OR=8.74, 95% CI 2.44-31.3, p=0.001). Elevated sST2 was associated with all markers of EBI except for global edema, and independently predicted poor outcome in a multivariate model that included EBI markers. These findings were further replicated in an independent cohort. Conc: Of the potential clinical and radiographic contributors to EBI, poor 24-hour GCS and clinically significant hydrocephalus remain independent predictors of poor outcome. Furthermore, soluble sST2 level is associated with EBI and poor outcome.

Introduction: Soluble ST2 (sST2) is a member of the interleukin-1 receptor family that predicts mortality and outcome in cardiovascular disease. We aimed to determine whether baseline sST2 predicts functional outcome after stroke and examined its potential role in hemorrhagic transformation (HT). Methods: We measured plasma sST2 and matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) in 646 patients who presented with acute ischemic stroke and were enrolled in the Specialized Program of Translational Research in Acute Stroke (SPOTRIAS) network biomarker study. Soluble ST2 and total MMP-9 were measured by ELISA. Functional outcome was assessed at 3 months with the modified Rankin Scale (mRS), with good outcome defined as mRS 0-2, and poor outcome defined as mRS 3-6. HT was classified in 246 patients with available CT scans, using the ECASS III criteria. The relationships between sST2, outcome, and HT were evaluated using multivariate logistic regression. Results: Median admission sST2 level was 35.0 ng/mL [IQR 25.7—49.8] in 646 patients (mean age 69 years; 44% women). The plasma concentration of sST2 was independently associated with poor outcome (OR 3.06, 95% CI 1.15-8.31, P =0.02) and mortality (OR 8.94, 95% CI 2.13-39.55, P =0.003) after adjustment for age, sex, NIHSS, admission glucose, cardioembolic stroke subtype, and tPA treatment. Of the 246 patients with imaging data available, HT occurred in 37 (15%) patients: 18 (48%) with hemorrhagic infarction type 1 (HI1), 11 (30%) with hemorrhagic infarction type 2 (HI2), 4 (11%) with parenchymal hemorrhage type 1 (PH1) and 4 (11%) with parenchymal hemorrhage type 2 (PH2). Admission sST2 level was associated with the subsequent development of any HT ( P =0.03) and with hemorrhagic infarction type 2 or greater (HI2, PH1, or PH2; P =0.008). Elevated sST2 independently predicted HI2 or greater after adjustment for age, MMP-9, blood glucose level, and tPA treatment (OR 9.27, 95% CI, 1.05-86.76, P =0.045). Conclusion: Plasma sST2 levels predicted mortality, functional outcome, and risk of HT after ischemic stroke. Further study of the potential link between sST2 and the brain injury response after stroke is warranted.
