ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the risk factors of cerebral infarction in youth,and to provide evidence for prevention and control. Methods A total of 105 patients aged 35 -45 years old with cerebral infarction in the affiliated hospital of Shaoxing University from January 2010 to October 2014 were recruited as the cerebral infarction group . The healthy people without neurological symptoms were recruited as the control group. The two groups were compared for the risk factors of cerebral infarction in the youth. Results Logistic regression analysis showed that high blood pressure,diabetes,lipid disorders, smoking,obesity,unstable plaque,high homocysteine and anti - cardiolipin antibodies were the risk factors for cerebral infarction in the youth. The value of ORs and 95% CIs interval value for high blood pressure,diabetes,lipid disorders, smoking,obesity,unstable plaque,high homocysteine and anti - cardiolipin antibodies was 14. 614(0. 469 -47. 273),5. 129 (1. 541 -28. 466),44. 970(2. 789 -101. 549),26. 180(1. 085 - 51. 912),45. 196(2. 572 - 205. 674),258. 786(4. 892 -367. 678),14. 585(1. 770 - 49. 662)and 5. 145(1. 005 - 20. 293),respectively. Conclusion High blood pressure, diabetes,lipid disorders,smoking,obesity,unstable plaque,high homocysteine and anti - cardiolipin antibodies were closely related with cerebral infarction in the youth,and it is necessary to prevent and control the influencing factors and diseases.
