This study aims to collect clinical, laboratory, and imaging data from patients with unruptured intracranial aneurysms, and collect blood or urine samples for cotinine testing. The enrolled patients underwent high-resolution magnetic resonance angiography to detect whether the intracranial aneurysm wall was enhanced and classify the degree of enhancement. The purpose is to study the correlation between arterial aneurysm wall enhancement and cotinine levels
This study aims to explore the relationship between cotinine levels and the risk of intracranial aneurysm rupture by collecting imaging features and patient cotinine levels of unruptured intracranial aneurysms on high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging, combined with the prognosis of patients with aneurysms. Previous studies have shown that the risk of intracranial aneurysm rupture in patients is related to the enhancement of the aneurysm wall on high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging. Therefore, this study included patients who met the inclusion criteria for high-resolution magnetic resonance imaging and cotinine testing, and followed up on the imaging characteristics, prognostic scores, and aneurysm occlusion rate of arterial aneurysms in patients.

RECRUITINGHigh resolution MRI aneurysm features
Enhancement grade was defined as follows: grade 0 for none enhancement, grade 1 for focal enhancement, involved the neck, the intermediate portion, the dome, or a bleb;grade 2 for thin annular enhancement (maximum thickness≤1 mm) , grade 3 for thick annular enhancement(maximum thickness\>1 mm) .

postoperative 12 month mRS score
MRS score definition: The MRS score, also known as the Modified Rankin Scale, is a scale used to evaluate the neurological recovery status of stroke patients. It is divided into seven levels, Level 0: completely asymptomatic. Level 1: Despite symptoms, without obvious disabilities, able to complete all frequently engaged work and activities. Level 2: Mild disability, unable to complete all work and activities, but able to handle personal affairs without the need for assistance from others. Level 3: Moderate disability, requiring assistance from others to walking without assistance. Level 4: Severe disability, unable to walk without the help of others, unable to take care of one's own needs. Level 5: Severe disability, bedridden, urinary and fecal incontinence, requiring continuous care, and requiring multiple 24-hour care from others. Level 6: Death. The higher the mRS score, the worse the patient's prognosis.
Time frame: 1 year
postoperative 12 month aneurysm occlusion rate
Raymond classification, grade I: complete embolism; Grade II: residual aneurysm neck; Grade III: Residual aneurysm cavity. The higher the Raymond grade, the lower the successful embolization rate of the patient's aneurysm. OKM classification is A1/A2/A3; B1/B2/B3; C1/C2/C3; D/Unsuccessful (note: A, B, C, D represent the volume of contrast agent filled aneurysm, A represents\>95%, B represents 5-95%, C represents\<5%, D represents no filling). 1, 2, and 3 represent the degree of contrast agent retention in the aneurysm, 1 represents only retention in the arterial phase, 2 represents retention continuing into the capillary phase, and 3 represents still retention in the venous phase.
