ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate the clinical features of cerebral infarction complicated with diabetes mellitus (DCI) compared withthose without diabetes mellitus (NCI). Methods 80 DCI and 86 NCI hospitalized patients were reviewed with their serumal glucose, lipid,uric acid, hemorheology and carotid ultrasound. Results The total cholesterol, low density lipoprotein and uric acid were significantly higherin DCI group than in NCI group (P<0.05), while high density lipoprotein was significantly lower (P<0.05). There were significant differencesbetween these two groups in Hemorheological indicators except hematokrit (P<0.01). The carotid intima media thickness (IMT) wassignificantly higher in the DCI group than in the NCI group (P<0.05). Conclusion DCI patients suffered in more serious lipid, uric acid,hemorheological disorder, and IMT compared with NCI.
