He GN, et al. - Researchers compared the black hole sign with other computed tomography (CT) features to predict the hematoma expansion (HE) and the outcome in patients with intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH). Between January 2012 and June 2016, patients were recruited within 12 hours after stroke in the emergency department of Henan Provincial People’s Hospital. They used logistic regression analyses to examine whether the factors were independent predictors of HE and the outcome in patients with ICH. In patients with ICH vs other CT features, CT black hole sign showed the best predictive accuracy in predicting HE. Findings revealed that it was not an independent predictor of poor outcome.
