Correlation between non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol,homocysteine levels and cognitive impairment,prognosis in patients with thalamic infarction
Objective To investigate the correlation between non-high density lipoprotein cholesterol(non-HDL-C),homocysteine(Hey)levels and cognitive impairment,prognosis in patients with thalamic infarction.Methods Eighty thalamic infarction patients admitted to Puyang People's Hospital from March 2017 to March 2021 were selected as the research sub-jects.According to Montreal cognitive assessment(MoCA)score,the patients were divided into cognitive impairment group(MoCA score＜26,n=35)and cognitive normal group(MoCA score 26-30,n=45).Another 50 healthy individuals who un-derwent physical examinations during the same period were selected as the control group.The serum cholesterol(TC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),Hcy levels of all subjects were detected by fully automated biochemical analyzer,and the non-HDL-C levels were calculated.The correlations between non-HDL-C,Hey levels and MoCA scores were analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis,and the diagnostic efficacy of non-HDL-C,Hcy levels for cognitive impairment of patients with tha-lamic infarction was analyzed by receiver operating characteristic curve.According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score,the patients with thalamic infarction were divided into good prognosis group(mRS score ≤2,n=50)and poor prognosis group(mRS score 3-6,n=50).The independent risk factors for poor prognosis of patients with thalamic infarction was analyzed by multivariate logistic regression.Results The serum levels of non-HDL-C and Hcy of patients in the cognitive impairment group were significantly higher than those in the cognitive normal group and control group(P＜0.05);there was no significant difference in the serum non-HDL-C,Hcy levels of subjects between the control group and the cognitive normal group(P＞0.05).The non-HDL-C,Hcy levels were negatively correlated with MoCA scores in thalamic infarction patients(P＜0.05).The area under the curve(AUC)of Hcy level in the diagnosis of cognitive impairment was 0.709,the sensitivity was 0.724 and the specificity was 0.630;the AUC of non-HDL-C level in the diagnosis of cognitive impairment was 0.738,the sensitivity was 0.701 and the specificity was 0.870;the AUC of Hey combined with non-HDL-C in the diagnosis of cognitive impairment was 0.769,the sensitivity was 0.758 and the specificity was 0.889.The diagnostic efficacy of Hey combined with non-HDL-C for cognitive impairment was superior to that of non-HDL-C or Hey alone.Atrial fibrillation,elevated levels of non-HDL-C,Hcy and NIHSS score were independent risk factors for poor prognosis of patients with thalamic infarction(P＜0.05).Conclusion The levels of non-HDL-C and Hey are positively correlated with cognitive impairment in patients with thalamic infarction.The levels of non-HDL-C and Hey can be used to diagnose cognitive impairmnent in patients with thalamic infarction,and the combined detection has a better diagnostic effect.Atrial fibrillation,elevated levels of non-HDL-C,Hcy and NIHSS score are independent risk factors for poor prognosis in patients with thalamic infarction.
