Objective This study was performed to analyze the lesion patterns of lacunae-sized @entity1188 on diffusion-weighted imaging (DWI) findings in the perforating arterial territory, and to determine whether this pattern of satellite lesions affected @entity4681 ( @entity4681 ). Methods Seventy-five @entity1 with acute lacunae-sized @entity1188 in the perforating arterial territory (pons or territory of the lenticulostriate arteries), which was confirmed by cranial magnetic resonance image (MRI), were enrolled in this study. These @entity1 were divided into @entity4681 (n=30) and @entity4681 ( @entity4681 ) (n=45) groups according to the dynamic scores of the National Institutes of Health @entity64 Scale (NIHSS) within 7 days after @entity64 . The lesion patterns of lacunae-sized @entity1188 were divided into single oval or satellite lesions signs based on DWI. The risk factors of @entity64 and the clinical characteristics of all the subjects, including @entity51 , @entity4798 patterns in image, and the condition of the basilar artery, were comparatively analyzed. Results The constituent ratio of satellite lesions signs [20/30 (66.7%)] in the @entity4681 group was higher than that [10/45 (22.2%)] of the @entity4681 group (  (2)= 6.1, p=0.013). Mean NIHSS scores in the @entity4681 group on admission were higher than that of the @entity4681 group (4.60  1.40 vs. 3.75  1.2, t=2.81, p=0.003). A logistic regression analysis showed that the pattern of satellite lesions was associated with @entity4681 .    odds ratio (OR): 3.0, 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.25-7.17, p=0.014   . Conclusion Satellite lesions are one of the features of lacunae-sized @entity1188 patterns, which might be an independent predictor in DWI findings for @entity4681 in @entity1 with lacunae-sized @entity1188 in the perforating arterial territory.
