Overview
This study was aimed to reveal the clinical features,natural history of the diseases and current therapeutic situations of cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) in China mainland. Blood samples and cerebrospinal fluid samples will be collected after recruitment to reveal the pathological mechanisms of CVT and identify the biomarkers for CVT.
Description
cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT) is caused by a clot in the cerebral vein, which resulted in an obstruction of the blood outflow. CVT mainly includes cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, deep cerebral vein thrombosis and cortical vein thrombosis. However, the epidemiological features of CVT in China mainland remained obscure. This study was aimed to establish a multicenter cohort recruiting patients with CVT across 31 provinces and municipalities in China mainland. Clinical features,natural history of the diseases and current therapeutic situations will be analyzed to reveal the epidemiological features of CVT. Blood samples and cerebrospinal fluid samples will be collected after recruitment to reveal the pathological mechanisms of CVT and identify the biomarkers for CVT. Patients will be followed-up at 1, 3, 6, 12 months from baseline to evaluate the clinical prognosis and therapeutic outcomes.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
• Cerebral venous sinus thrombosis, deep cerebral vein thrombosis and cortical vein thrombosis diagnosed by digital subtraction angiography (DSA), magnetic resonance venography (MRV), computed tomography venography (CTV) or high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging (HR-MRI).
Exclusion Criteria:
• None of the patient, trustee or immediate family members signed the informed consent.
