Independent Risk Factor for Cerebral Infarction

چکیده
Background and Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the role of high serum lipoprotein(a) levels in a group of patients with a relatively early onset of cerebral infarction as a whole and in a subgroup with the perforating artery occlusion subtype of cerebral infarction. Methods: Fifty-four patients with cerebral infarction, the onset ofwhich was before age 65 years (37 men, 17 women; mean age, 61.9±7.7 years) were examined in this study. When patients with atrial fibrillation

The Frequency of Cerebral Microembolism in Acute Myocardial Infarction
ABSTRACT Introduction: Stroke is more common in patients with cerebral microembolisms. Frequency of cerebral microembolisms (high intensity transient signals, HITS) in acute myocardial infarction has been reported about 17%. The factors that influence on microembolism after myocardial infarction (MI) are not definitive. Type of MI, Ejection fraction, Hx of Streptokinase is the factors that were...
متن کاملElevated plasma level of homocysteine is associated with intra/extracranial atherosclerotic stenosis in Chinese patients with large artery atherosclerotic cerebral infarction
Background and aims Hyperhomocysteinemia was recognized as a risk factor for cerebral infarction, especially caused by large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA). But whether high plasma total homocysteine (tHcy) is associated with cervico-cerebral atherosclerotic stenosis (CCAS) remains unclear. The aim of this study is to investigate whether elevated plasma tHcy is a risk factor for CCAS, and identif...
متن کاملDissociation of Early and Delayed Cerebral Infarction After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Cerebral infarction after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage is a significant cause of substantial morbidity and mortality. Because early and delayed cerebral infarction after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage may be mediated by different processes, we evaluated whether aneurysm-securing methods contributed to infarcts and whether long-term outcomes differ between early ...

متن کاملCarthamus tinctorius L. ameliorates brain injury followed by cerebral ischemia-reperfusion in rats by antioxidative and anti-inflammatory mechanisms
Objective(s): Carthamus tinctorius L. (CT) or saffloweris widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. This study investigated the effects of CT extract (CTE) on ischemia–reperfusion (I/R) brain injury and elucidated the underlying mechanism. Materials and Methods: The I/R model was conducted by occlusion of both common carotid arteries and right middle cerebral artery for 90 min followed by 24...
