    Objective: New diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) lesions on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) after carotid artery stenting (CAS) are associated with an increased risk of future cerebrovascular events. Therefore, we evaluated the association between the expression levels of serum inflammatory markers and new DWI lesions after CAS and the presence of intraplaque hemorrhage (IPH). We also explored the mechanisms underlying this association. Methods: A total of 225 inpatients with severe carotid artery stenosis were consecutively enrolled in this cohort study. Serum inflammatory marker levels were detected in all patients by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. In the final analysis, 128 patients who underwent CAS and received pretreatment and post-treatment MRI scans were enrolled. DWI was performed to detect new ischemia brain lesions. T1-weighted, T2-weighted, and time-of-flight sequences were also conducted to identify IPH. Results: Serum tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) levels were significantly higher in symptomatic patients as well as in IPH+ patients identified by carotid MRI. New DWI lesions were identified in 50% of patients after CAS. Univariate analysis showed that DWI+ patients after CAS exhibited older mean age, higher mean TNF-alpha levels, and more IPH on preoperative MRI and were less likely to have right carotid stenosis than DWI- patients. Multivariate logistic regression analyses revealed that serum TNF-alpha concentrations were associated with new DWI lesions after CAS (odds ratio, 1.245; 95% confidence interval, 1.068-1.451; P =.005). Finally, the specificity and sensitivity of serum TNF-alpha levels in predicting DWI+ patients after CAS were 0.828 and 0.453, respectively. Conclusions: Higher serum TNF-alpha levels are associated with a higher likelihood of new DWI lesions after CAS and the presence of IPH. Therefore, TNF-alpha is a potentially valuable predictor of acute ischemic cerebral lesions after CAS and the presence of IPH.
