Brief Summary

PROMISE aims at identifying novel diagnostic and prognostic circulating biomarkers for patients with acute stroke and at informing on crucial yet undetected pathophysiological mechanisms driving outcome after stroke by enriching all phenotypic information available from clinical routine with in-depth quantification of the circulating proteome and metabolome as well as other entities.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Prediction of clinical outcome as defined by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score

    The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) is a valid and reliable clinician-reported measure of global disability that has been widely applied for evaluating recovery from stroke. It is a scale used to measure functional recovery (the degree of disability or dependence in daily activities) of people who have suffered a stroke. mRS scores range from 0 (best outcome) to 6 (worst outcome), with 0 indicating no residual symptoms; 5 indicating bedbound, requiring constant care; and 6 indicating death. We will assess associations of clinical outcome with: * Global, class, pathway, and individual metabolite levels upon admission (day 1), day 2, day 3, day7, and day 90 \[raw values, referenced to HC, or referenced to SM\] * Global, pathway, and individual protein levels upon admission (day 1), day 2, day 3, day7, and day 90 \[raw values, referenced to HC, or referenced to SM\]

Study Arms (4)

Acute Ischemic Stroke

504 patients admitted to a specialized stroke service because of an acute ischemic stroke. The circulating proteome and metabolome as well as specific molecular targets of interest (i.e. NfL) will be assessed upon admission (day 1), the next morning (day 2), day 3, day 7 (or day of discharge if earlier), and day 90. Routinely collected clinical data including from neuroimaging will be collected throughout hospitalization. Clinical follow-up will be performed at 3 months.

Acute Intracerebral hemorrhage

130 patients admitted to a specialized stroke service because of an acute intracerebral hemorrhage. The circulating proteome and metabolome as well as specific molecular targets of interest (i.e. NfL) will be assessed upon admission (day 1). Routinely collected clinical data including from neuroimaging will be collected throughout hospitalization.

Stroke Mimics

51 patients admitted to the emergency department because of acute stroke-like symptoms caused by epileptic seizures, migraine attacks, or other stroke-mimicking diseases. The circulating proteome and metabolome as well as specific molecular targets of interest (i.e. NfL) will be assessed upon admission (day 1), the next morning (day 2), day 3, day 7, and day 90. Routinely collected clinical data including from neuroimaging will be collected throughout hospitalization.

Healthy subjects

102 subjects without acute neurological symptoms. The circulating proteome and metabolome as well as specific molecular targets of interest (i.e. NfL) will be assessed.
