ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the incidence and the influencing factors of kidney insufficiency in acute cerebral infarction patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Methods From January 2013 to January 2015,266 consecutive acute cerebral infarction patients with non-valvular atrial fibrillation admitted to the Department of Neurology,Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were enrolled retrospectively. Renal function was assessed by the estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR),eGFR 0. 05). (2)Multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that the age (≥65 years)was an independent risk factor for the occurrence of renal insufficiency in acute cerebral infarction patients with atrial fibrillation (OR,1. 147,95% CI 1. 087 -1. 209;P < 0. 01),and the histories of hypertension (OR,0. 870,95% CI 0. 362-2. 089;P = 0. 755),diabetes mellitus (OR,1. 078,95% CI 0. 403 -2. 883;P = 0. 882 ), and hyperlipidemia (OR,1. 666,95% CI 0. 645 - 4. 302;P = 0. 292 )were not associated with renal insufficiency in cerebral infarction patients with atrial fibrillation. Conclusions The incidence of renal insufficiency in cerebral infarction patients with atrial fibrillation is higher. Age (≥65 years)is an independent risk factor for renal insufficiency in this type of patients.
