Association between lipoprotein(a)and clinical outcomes in patients treated with endovascular therapy for acute ischemic stroke due to anterior circulation large artery occlusion
Objective:To investigate the correlation between lipoprotein(a)[Lp(a)]and clinical outcome in patients with acute ischemic stroke with large artery occlusion in anterior circulation undergoing endovascular treatment.Methods:Patients diagnosed with acute ischemic stroke(AIS)with anterior circulation large artery occlusion within 24 hours of on-set and treated with endovascular treatment(EVT)in the Department of Neurology,Baotou Central Hospital were en-rolled.The baseline data,blood test indexes,operation related information,and prognosis of the patients were recorded in detail.The outcome was the proportion of patients with a good outcome at 3 months after EVT,defined as a modified Rankin scale(mRs)score of 0-2.SPSS 25.0 statistical software was used to analyze all collected data to further evaluate the correlation between Lp(a)and clinical outcomes of EVT patients.Results:A total of 265 patients were enrolled,in-cluding 141 patients(53.2%)in the good prognosis group and 124 patients(46.8%)in the poor prognosis group.The Lp(a)level in the good prognosis group was lower than that in the poor prognosis group,and the difference was statistical-ly significant.Multifactor logistic regression analysis showed Lp(a)OR=1.032;95%CI=1.017-1.047.ROC analysis of Lp(a)for poor outcomes in EVT patients showed that the AUC was 0.655(95%CI=0.590-0.721,P<0.001),the predictive cut-off value was 20.95 mg/dL,the sensitivity was 77.4%,and the specificity was 51.1%.Conclusion:Lp(a)level is related to the clinical outcome at 3 months after EVT in patients with acute ischemic stroke with large artery occlusion in the anterior circulation,and has certain predictive value for its clinical outcome.
