Leukoaraiosis rather than lacunes predict poor outcome and chest infection in acute ischemic stroke patients.
In this study, we determine the effects of leukoaraiosis and lacunes on the clinical outcome and relative complications of acute ischemic stroke patients. From January 2007 to June 2008, 323 consecutive patients with acute brain infarction were prospectively studied. Leukoaraiosis was defined as moderate or severe white matter hyperintensities, and lacunes were counted as follows: none (0 lacun...
متن کاملAssociation of serum uric acid level with ischemic stroke, stroke subtypes and clinical outcome
Background and Objective: Uric acid is a neuroprotective agent. However, its relationship with ischaemic stroke remains controversial. We analyzed the association between serum uric acid and ischemic stroke and clinical outcome. Methods: The study subject consisted of 550 ischemic stroke patients from the Nizam’s Institute of Health Sciences, Hyderabad, India with 550 matched healthy controls. ...
متن کاملMaintenance of Normoglycemia May Improve Outcome in Acute Ischemic Stroke
INTRODUCTION Several studies have shown that high admission glucose is associated with poor outcomes after stroke, but the impact of maintenance of normoglycemia on functional outcome during hospitalization for acute ischemic stroke is less well established. AIMS The aim of this study was to examine the independent association of postadmission glycemic status in the 1st week with 3-month func...
متن کاملThe use of blood biomarkers to predict poor outcome after acute transient ischemic attack or ischemic stroke.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The prediction of death or disability ("poor outcome") after stroke by validated clinical models might be improved by the addition of blood biomarker measurements. We investigated whether such measurements improved the classification of patients into 4 categories of predicted risk of poor outcome: very high, intermediate high, intermediate low, and very low. METHODS We ...
متن کاملSerum albumin level as a predictor of ischemic stroke outcome.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Animal studies showed that human albumin therapy is strongly neuroprotective in focal ischemia. The aim of our study was to determine if relatively high serum albumin level is associated with decreased risk of poor outcome in ischemic stroke patients. METHODS Seven hundred fifty-nine consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke were included. Functional outcome was m...
