ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the correlation between peripheral blood renal function indexes and brain frailty imaging score in patients with mild ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA).Methods:Patients with mild ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from March 2018 to August 2019 were enrolled retrospectively. General clinical data and peripheral blood renal function indexes, including urea, uric acid and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), were collected. eGFR <60 ml/(min·1.73 m 2) was used to reflect chronic kidney disease. According to the findings of MRI examination, the imaging score of cerebral frailty was performed. When there were white matter lesions, brain atrophy and lacunar infarction/lacuna, 1 point was given, and the total score was 3. Ordinal multi-class logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between renal function indexes and brain frailty imaging score in patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to evaluate the relationship between renal function indexes and brain frailty imaging score >1. Results:A total of 204 patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA were enrolled during the study. Their average age was 64.82 years old and 78 (38.2%) were females. There were 28 cases (13.73%), 70 cases (34.31%), 63 cases (30.88%) and 43 cases (21.08%) with brain frailty imaging scores of 0, 1, 2, and 3, respectively. One hundred and six patients (51.96%) were in the brain frailty imaging score >1 group and 98 (48.04%) were in the ≤1 group. Univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences in age, diabetes mellitus, eGFR, eGFR classification, homocysteine, intracranial vascular stenosis, stroke etiology classification and vascular distribution between the group with brain frailty imaging score >1 and those with brain frailty imaging score ≤1 (all P<0.05). Ordinal multi-class logistic regression analysis showed that urea (odds ratio [ OR] 0.67, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 0.51-0.89, P=0.005) and eGFR ( OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.96-0.99; P=0.004) were significantly and independently correlated with brain frailty imaging score. Binary logistic regression analysis showed that eGFR was significantly and independently correlated with brain frailty imaging score >1 ( OR 0.98, 95% CI 0.96-1.00; P=0.016). However, urea, uric acid and eGFR classification were not independently correlated with brain frailty imaging score or brain frailty imaging score >1. Conclusion:Blood urea and eGFR are correlated with the brain frailty imaging score in patients with mild ischemic stroke or TIA.

ABSTRACT

Interleukin (IL) -17A plays a key role in the occurrence and development of psoriasis. To date, several marketed IL-17A and its receptor antagonists have been applied to the treatment of psoriasis, and definite therapeutic effects have been achieved. However, several adverse reactions, including upper respiratory tract infection, Candida infections, neutropenia, inflammatory bowel disease, which can be life-threatening, have been reported in clinical trials and after marketing of these biologics. This review summarizes clinical safety profiles of 3 types of interleukin-17A and its receptor antagonists, i.e., secukinumab, ixekizumab and brodalumab.
