Objective:
In this study, the hemodynamic parameters of ruptured intracranial aneurysms (IAs) in various studies were summarized and analyzed to provide predictive parameters for IA rupture in clinical work.
Methods:
We searched PubMed, Web of science, Embase, and Cochrane databases for articles published before December 2021 to collect data on hemodynamic parameters associated with IA rupture. Differences in wall shear stress (WSS), oscillatory shear index (OSI), and low wall shear stress area (LSA) between ruptured and unruptured IAs in the literature were summarized and analyzed, and the standardized mean difference (SMD) of 95% CI was calculated by Review Manager 5.3.
Results:
By searching and screening the literature, this meta-analysis included 17 studies comprising 1,373 IA patients. In the ruptured aneurysm group, the level of WSS decreased significantly, while OSI and LSA increased obviously.
Conclusion:
Low WSS, high OSI, and high LSA are closely related to the rupture of IAs, indicating the role of WSS, OSI, and LSA as important hemodynamic parameters for predicting the rupture of IAs in clinical work.
