- Objective To obtain precise estimates of age, haematoma volume, secondary haematoma expansion (HE) and mortality for patients with intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) taking oral anticoagulants [Vitamin K antagonists (VKA-ICH) or non-Vitamin K antagonist oral anticoagulants (NOAC-ICH)] and those not taking oral anticoagulants (non-OAC ICH) at ICH symptom onset. Methods We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing VKA-ICH or NOAC-ICH or both with non-OAC ICH. Primary outcomes were haematoma volume (in ml), HE, and mortality (in-hospital and 3-month). We calculated odds ratios (ORs) using the Mantel-Haenszel random-effects method and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95%CI) and determined the mean ICH volume difference. Results We identified 19 studies including data from 16,546 patients with VKA-ICH and 128,561 patients with non-OAC ICH. Only 2 studies reported data on 4943 patients with NOAC-ICH. Patients with VKA-ICH were significantly older than patients with non-OAC ICH (mean age difference: 5.55 years, 95%CI 4.03-7.07, p < 0.0001, I-2 = 92%, p < 0.001). Haematoma volume was significantly larger in VKA-ICH with a mean difference of 9.66 ml (95%CI 6.24-13.07 ml, p < 0.00001; I-2 = 42%, p = 0.05). HE occurred significantly more often in VKA-ICH (OR 2.96, 95%CI 1.74-4.97, p < 0.00001; I-2 = 65%). VKA-ICH was associated with significantly higher in-hospital mortality (VKA-ICH: 32.8% vs. non-OAC ICH: 22.4%; OR 1.83, 95%CI 1.61-2.07, p < 0.00001, I-2 = 20%, p = 0.27) and 3-month mortality (VKA-ICH: 47.1% vs. non-OAC ICH: 25.5%; OR 2.24, 95%CI 1.52-3.31, p < 0.00001, I-2 = 71%, p = 0.001). We did not find sufficient data for a meta-analysis comparing NOAC-ICH and non-OAC-ICH. Conclusion This meta-analysis confirms, refines and expands findings from prior studies. We provide precise estimates of key prognostic factors and outcomes for VKA-ICH, which has larger haematoma volume, increased rate of HE and higher mortality compared to non-OAC ICH. There are insufficient data on NOACs.

- Objective To study hematoma location and morphology of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) associated with oral anticoagulants (OAC) and delineate causes and mechanism. Methods We performed a systematic literature research and meta-analysis of studies comparing neuroimaging findings in patients with OAC-ICH compared to those with ICH not associated with OAC (non-OAC ICH). We calculated pooled risk ratios (RRs) for ICH location using the Mantel-Haenszel random-effects method and corresponding 95% confidence intervals (95% CI). Results We identified 8 studies including 6,259 patients (OAC-ICH n = 1,107, pooled OAC-ICH population 17.7%). There was some evidence for deep ICH location (defined as ICH in the thalamus, basal ganglia, internal capsule, or brainstem) being less frequent in patients with OAC-ICH (OAC-ICH: 450 of 1,102/40.8% vs non-OAC ICH: 2,656 of 4,819/55.1%; RR 0.94, 95% CI 0.88-1.00, p = 0.05, I-2 = 0%) while cerebellar ICH location was significantly more common in OAC-ICH (OAC-ICH: 111 of 1,069/10.4% vs non-OAC ICH: 326 of 4,787/6.8%; RR 1.45, 95% CI 1.12-1.89, p = 0.005, I-2 = 21%) compared to non-OAC ICH. There was no statistically significant relationship to OAC use for lobar (OAC-ICH: 423 of 1,107/38.2% vs non-OAC ICH: 1,884 of 5,152/36.6%; RR 1.02, 95% CI 0.89-1.17, p = 0.75, I-2 = 53%, p for heterogeneity = 0.04) or brainstem ICH (OAC-ICH: 36 of 546/6.6% vs non-OAC ICH: 172 of 2,626/6.5%; RR 1.04, 95% CI 0.58-1.87, p = 0.89, I-2 = 59%, p for heterogeneity = 0.04). The risk for intraventricular extension (OAC-ICH: 436 of 840/51.9% vs non-OAC ICH: 1,429 of 3,508/40.7%; RR 1.26, 95% CI 1.16-1.36, p < 0.001, I-2 = 0%) was significantly increased in patients with OAC-ICH. We found few data on ICH morphology in OAC-ICH vs non-OAC ICH. Conclusion The overrepresentation of cerebellar ICH location and intraventricular extension in OAC-ICH might have mechanistic relevance for the underlying arteriopathy, pathophysiology, or bleeding pattern of OAC-ICH, and should be investigated further.
