ObjectiveTo investigate the role of alcohol as a causal factor for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and whether its effects might vary according to the pathogenic mechanisms underlying cerebral bleeding.MethodsWe performed a case-control analysis, comparing a cohort of consecutive white patients with ICH aged 55 years and older with a group of age- and sex-matched stroke-free controls, enrolled in the setting of the Multicenter Study on Cerebral Haemorrhage in Italy (MUCH-Italy) between 2002 and 2014. Participants were dichotomized into excessive drinkers (>45 g of alcohol) and light to moderate drinkers or nondrinkers. To isolate the unconfounded effect of alcohol on ICH, we used causal directed acyclic graphs and the back-door criterion to select a minimal sufficient adjustment set(s) of variables for multivariable analyses. Analyses were performed on the whole group as well as separately for lobar and deep ICH.ResultsWe analyzed 3,173 patients (1,471 lobar ICH and 1,702 deep ICH) and 3,155 controls. After adjusting for the preselected variables in the minimal sufficient adjustments, heavy alcohol intake was associated with deep ICH risk (odds ratio [OR], 1.68; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.36–2.09) as well as with the overall risk of ICH (OR, 1.38; 95% CI, 1.17–1.63), whereas no effect was found for lobar ICH (OR, 1.01; 95% CI, 0.77–1.32).ConclusionsIn white people aged 55 years and older, high alcohol intake might exert a causal effect on ICH, with a prominent role in the vascular pathologies underlying deep ICH.

Objective: Whether migraine modifies after spontaneous cervical artery dissection (sCeAD) more than after other stroke etiologic subtypes has never been adequately investigated. Methods: In the setting of the Italian Project on Stroke in Young Adults (IPSYS), we compared the course of migraine before and after acute brain infarct in a group of migraine patients with sCeAD and a group of migraine patients whose ischemia was due to a cause other than CeAD (non-CeAD IS), matched by sex, age (± 3 years), and migraine subtype.We applied linear mixed models to evaluate pre-event vs post-event changes and differences between sCeAD and non-CeAD IS patients. Results: Eighty-seven patients per group (migraine without aura/migraine with aura, 67/20) qualified for the analysis. After the acute event, migraine headaches disappeared in 14.0% of CeAD patients vs 0.0% of non-CeAD IS patients (p ≤ 0.001). Migraine frequency (patients suffering at least 1 attack, from 93.1 to 80.5%, p = 0.001), pain intensity (from 6.7 ± 1.7 to 4.6 ± 2.6 in a 0 to 10 pain scale, p ≤ 0.001), and use of acute anti-migraine medications (patients taking at least 1 preparation, from 81.6 to 64.4%, p = 0.007) also improved significantly after CeAD as opposed to that observed after non-CeAD IS. Conclusion: The spontaneous improvement of migraine after sCeAD reinforces the hypothesis of a pathogenic link between the two conditions
