a

Covariates selected based on a significance of P < .20 in the bivariate regression.

b

Includes Asian, Native American, and Pacific Islander, consolidated owing to small numbers.

c

Admission IVH volume was not available in 2 patients in CLEAR-III and 13 in MISTIE-III.

d

NIHSS score was missing in 26 patients in CLEAR-III.

e

van Swieten scale (vSS): CT grading scale for leukoaraiosis severity ranging from 0 to 4 (used in CLEAR-III); FS score: magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) grading scale from leukoaraiosis severity ranging from 0 to 6, combining deep and periventricular regions (used in MISTIE-III). Severe leukoaraiosis defined as total FS score >3 or deep FS score 2 to 3 for MISTIE-III and vSS ≥3 for CLEAR-III; FS score was missing in 45 patients in MISTIE-III.

f

Resolution of ICH was defined as ICH volume of 0 mL on day 30 CT; resolution of IVH defined as modified Graeb score of 0 on day 30 CT; day 30 CT IVH resolution was not available in 83 patients, and ICH resolution and hydrocephalus were not available in 42 patients.

g

Pineal gland shift data were not available in 79 patients in CLEAR-III and 85 in MISTIE-III.

h

Pineal gland shift data were not available in 79 patients in CLEAR-III and 85 in MISTIE-III.

i

Race and ethnicity data were included to account form racial and ethnic variances in ICH outcomes. Race and ethnicity were collected by trial investigators from review of medical records.
