Imaging predictors of hemorrhagic progression of a contusion after traumatic brain injury: a systematic review and meta-analysis.
Scientific Reports 2024 March 13
The hemorrhagic progression of a contusion (HPC) after Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the important causes of death in trauma patients. The purpose of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the predictive effect of imaging features of Computed tomography (CT) on HPC after TBI. A comprehensive systematic search was performed using PubMed, EMBASE, and WEB OF SCIENCE databases to identify all relevant literature. A total of 8 studies involving 2543 patients were included in this meta-analysis. Meta-analysis showed that subarachnoid hemorrhage (OR 3.28; 95% CI 2.57-4.20), subdural hemorrhage (OR 4.35; 95% CI 3.29-5.75), epidural hemorrhage (OR 1.47;95% CI 1.15-1.89), contrast extravasation (OR 11.81; 95% CI 4.86-28.71) had a predictive effect on the occurrence of HPC. Skull fracture (OR 1.64; 95% CI 0.84-3.19) showed no statistical significance, and midline displacement > 5 mm (OR 4.66; 95% CI 1.87-11.62) showed high heterogeneity. The results of this meta-analysis showed that some imaging features were effective predictors of HPC after TBI. Well-designed prospective studies are needed to more accurately assess the effective predictors of HPC after TBI.
