Analysis of related factors of symptomatic intracranial artery stenosis induced acute cerebral infarction
Objective This study aims to explore the clinical characteristics and factors associated with the onset of symptomatic intracranial arterial stenosis acute cerebral infarction(SAICAS)in patients.Methods A total of 293 patients were included and divided into a middle cerebral artery stenosis group(153 cases)and a non middle cerebral artery stenosis group(140 cases)based on the degree of intracranial artery stenosis.All patients completed imaging examinations such as cranial MR,TOF/CTA,and compared the age,gender,blood pressure,low-density lipoprotein,high-density lipoprotein,blood glucose,homocysteine,NIHSS score,etc.between the two groups of patients.Results No significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of gender,age,etc.(P>0.05).Based on a comprehensive comparison of all intracranial artery stenosis stroke cases with and without middle cerebral artery stenosis,further age groups were divided into Group A(under 60 years old),Group B(60-80 years old),and Group C(over 80 years old).By comparing and analyzing the gender,blood pressure,low-density lipoprotein,high-density lipoprotein,blood glucose,homocysteine,and NIHSS scores of patients,it was found that there were differences in biochemical indicators between different age groups in terms of gender,diastolic blood pressure,low-density lipoprotein,high-density lipoprotein,and homocysteine scores(P<0.05),but the impact on disease severity(NIHSS score)was not significant.Conclusion There is no correlation between the location of intracranial artery stenosis and cerebral infarction,age,or gender.But with age,there are significant changes in gender,diastolic blood pressure,low-density lipoprotein,high-density lipoprotein,and homocysteine indicators.
