Outcomes in patients with deep ICH versus lacunar stroke: (a) Comparison of pre-event and 3 month modified Rankin Scale (mRS) in patients with lacunar stroke (n = 476) versus deep ICH (n = 91). Pre-event and 3 month mRS were significantly higher in patients with deep ICH (p < 0.001 for both timepoints) and (b) Event rates in patients with lacunar stroke versus deep intracerebral haemorrhage (ICH) at 3 month follow-up. Patients with deep ICH had numerically higher rates of cerebrovascular events compared to patients with LS but this difference was not statistically significant (p for ischaemic stroke at follow-up 0.51, p for ICH at follow-up 0.18).

ICH: intracerebral haemorrhage; AIS: acute ischaemic stroke; SVD: small vessel disease.
