ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the characteristics and risk factors of perioperative hypertension during dental implant surgeries with bone augmentation.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was con-ducted.Seven hundred and twenty-eight cases underwent dental implant placement and bone augmenta-tion in Peking University School and Hospital of Stomatology from September 2021 to August 2022 were recruited in this study according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria.They were divided into different groups according to the exposure factors which were gender,age,surgical time,and surgical approach.The correlation between perioperative hypertension and the exposure factors was analyzed.Results:The average systolic blood pressure variability was 9.93%±6.63%(maximum 50.41%),the average dias-tolic blood pressure variability was 12.45%±8.79%(maximum 68.75%),and the average mean arte-rial pressure variability was 10.02%±6.61%(maximum 49.48%).The incidence rate of perioperative hypertension was 26.77%.Male,age ≥ 60 years,and surgical time>60 minutes were risk factors for perioperative hypertension(P<0.05),and the relative risks(95%CI)were 1.74(1.21-2.50),2.35(1.54-3.58),and 1.65(1.15-2.38),respectively.There was no significant difference in the inci-dence of perioperative hypertension among the guided bone regeneration,sinus floor elevation with transal-veolar approach,and sinus floor elevation with lateral window approach(P>0.05).However,the risk factors varied according to bone augmentation approaches.For the patients underwent guided bone rege-neration,the risk factors for perioperative hypertension included male,age≥60 years,and surgical time>60 minutes(P<0.05).For the patients underwent maxillary sinus lift with transalveolar approach,the risk factor for perioperative hypertension was age ≥ 60 years(P<0.05).For the patients underwent maxillary sinus lift with lateral window approach,male,age ≥60 years,and surgical time>60 minutes were not risk factors for perioperative hypertension(P>0.05).Conclusion:There was a certain risk of periopera-tive hypertension in oral implantation with bone augmentation.The influence of male,age ≥60 years and sur-gical time>60 minutes on perioperative hypertension was related to the approach of bone augmentation.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To explore the clinical application value of limb remote ischemic postconditioning (LRIPC) in patients with acute cerebral infarction after recanalization.Methods:A total of 78 patients with acute cerebral infarction admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College from June 2017 to March 2019 were selected. According to the random number table method, they were divided into the observation group with 39 cases (LRIPC + conventional medical treatment) and the control group with 39 cases (conventional medical treatment). The National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Montreal Cognitive Assessment scale (MoCA) scores, the changes of cerebral blood perfusion, cerebral infarction volume and the levels of nerve function indexes before and after the treatment were compared and analyzed.Results:After the treatment, the NIHSS scores in the observation group were lower than thosein the control group, and the MoCA scores were higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). After the treatment, the mean transit time of cerebral blood flow in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group, while the regional cerebral blood flow and regional cerebral blood volume were higher than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). After the treatment, the volume of cerebral infarction in the observation group was lower than that in the control group ( P<0.05). After the treatment, the levels of matrix metalloproteinase 9 and S-100B protein in the observation group were lower than those in the control group: (142.45 ± 36.23) mg/L vs. (176.89 ± 42.63) mg/L, (2.52 ± 0.46) μg/L vs. (3.61 ± 0.75) μg/L; and the level of nerve growth factor was higher than that in the control group: (143.49 ± 10.58) μg/L vs. (124.96 ± 13.62) μg/L, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:LRIPC can improve the nerve functions, cognitive functions andreduce the volume of cerebral infarction by improving cerebral blood flow. It also has a good effect on alleviating the neurological functional impairment after vascular recanalization.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To retrospectively analyze the pregnancy outcomes of patients with adenomyosis requiring fertility in a single center under real world condition.Methods:From June 2015 to May 2020, 231 cases of pregnancy complicated with adenomyosis diagnosed by ultrasound with fertility requirements were treated in the Women′s and Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Qingdao University with complete clinical data. And they were divided into three groups according to the treatment of adenomyosis before pregnancy: expectation group, drug group and operation group. The relevant data before pregnancy of the three groups were analyzed, and the pregnancy outcomes of the patients were summarized. According to whether the early pregnancy was treated with medication, the patients who were naturally conceived without symptoms of threatened abortion were divided into observation group and fetus protection group, and the pregnancy outcomes of the two groups were compared.Results:(1) Compared with the expectation group, the ages of patients in the drug group and the operation group were larger [(31.5±1.8) vs (34.1±3.7) vs (36.9±3.6) years old], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Only 9 patients (11.5%, 9/78) had clinical symptoms in the expectation group, while the patients in the drug group and the operation group had a higher proportion of dysmenorrhea and increased menstrual volume. The uterine volume of the drug group and the operation group were larger than that of the expectation group [(151±46) vs (166±27) vs (97±18) cm 3], the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). 78.6% (33/42) of the operation group were focal adenomyosis. The proportion of natural pregnancy in the expectation group was 97.4% (76/78), and in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer was mainly used in the drug group and the operation group. (2) The abortion rates of the three groups were 48.7% (26/111), 4/17, 67.5% (27/78) respectively. Compared with the drug group and the operation group, the preterm birth rate was lower [55.9% (33/111) vs 11/17 vs 12.5% (5/78)] and the natural delivery rate was higher [44.1% (26/111) vs 4/17 vs 67.5% (27/78)] in the expectation group. (3) There were 89 cases of spontaneous pregnancy without threatened abortion symptoms, including 31 cases in the observation group and 58 cases in the fetus protection group. Compared with the observation group, the abortion rate of patients in the fetus protection group was lower [41.9% (13/31) vs 34.5% (20/58)], and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Patients with adenomyosis who have fertility requirements should be comprehensively evaluated and individualized treatment plans should be given. Pregnancy patients with adenomyosis have a high rate of miscarriage, and they should be included in the management of high-risk pregnant women. Active fetal protection treatment during early pregnancy might improve pregnancy outcomes.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To investigate the efficacy and safety of modified early unclamping technique in robot-assisted laparoscopic partial nephrectomy (RAPN) for patients with renal tumors.Methods:A total of 32 renal tumor patients undergoing RAPN with modified early unclamping technique between January 2019 and August 2020 were retrospectively collected, including 18 males and 14 females. The average age was (48.5±11.2) years old, average BMI was (23.8±3.7) kg/m 2, average tumor size was (4.2±1.4)cm with 18 left tumors and 14 right tumors, average R. E.N.A.L. score was 7.6±0.4, and average preoperative eGFR was (84.0±18.6)ml/(min·1.73 m 2). The control group included 66 renal tumor patients undergoing RAPN with standard unclamping technique during the same period by the same surgeon, including 42 males and 24 females. The average age was (50.2±13.8) years old, average BMI was (24.0±4.5)kg/m 2, average tumor size was (4.1±1.6)cm with 35 left tumors and 31 right tumors, average R. E.N.A.L. score was 7.5±0.5, and average preoperative eGFR was (82.8±20.2) ml/(min·1.73 m 2). There was no significant difference in above variables between two groups. Modified early unclamping technique used barbed wire to continually suture 2-3 needles in a short time to close the large space at the outer after the inner suture, and then loosen the blocking clip to restore renal blood supply. The operative time, warm ischemia time, blood loss, postoperative tube removal time, postoperative hospital stay and 3 months postoperative renal function of two groups were compared. Results:All of the 98 RAPN were performed successfully and no patient was converted to radical nephrectomy or open surgery. There was no significant difference in operation time [(120.9±22.8)vs.(111.6±25.0)min, P=0.079], postoperative tube removal time [(4.0±0.6)day vs.(3.8±0.8) day, P=0.214] and postoperative hospital stay [(5.1±0.7)day vs.(5.2±0.5) day, P=0.419] between the two groups. Compared with the standard unclamping group, the modified early unclamping group had obvious less warm ischemia time [(13.5±3.6)min vs.(21.2±4.4) min, P<0.001]. There was no difference in intraoperative estimated blood loss between two groups (110 ml vs. 100 ml, P=0.480). No blood transfusion, urine leakage, postoperative hemorrhage occurred in either group. The 3 months postoperative renal function decline of modified early unclamping group was slightly less than standard unclamping group [(10.5±7.6)ml/(min·1.73m 2)vs.(13.2±6.4) ml/(min·1.73m 2)], but did not reach statistical significance ( P=0.069). The median follow-up period was 12.4 months(4-24 months) without any recurrence or metastasis. Conclusions:The modified early unclamping technique in RAPN for patients with renal tumors is safe and feasible. Compared with the standard unclamping technique, the modified early unclamping technique could shorten the warm ischemia time without increasing blood loss and complications, and might protect the postoperative renal function, which has high value in clinical practice.

ABSTRACT

Objective:To validate gender-related differences in patients with upper tract urothelial carcinoma (UTUC).Methods:We used a method of combination of SEER database analysis and validation in our center. We selected 2 125 men (57.8%) and 1 552 (42.2%) women who underwent radical nephroureterectomy (RNU) for UTUC between 1995 and 2015 within the surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results registries (SEER). In male cases, the median age was 71(22-99)years old, median follow-up time was 53.0 (0-227) months, 902 (89.5%) cases were Caucasian, 1 384 cases (65.1%) were located in the renal pelvis, and 810(38.1%) cases were T 3-T 4. For female cases, the median age was 73.6(25-99)years old, median follow-up time was 53.1(0-226) months, 1 417(91.3%) cases were Caucasian, 1 043 cases (67.2%) were located in the renal pelvis, and 508 (32.7%) cases were T 3-T 4. The analysis of SEER database showed that female patients were older compared to male patients ( P=0.002), the proportion of T 3-T 4 was even lower ( P=0.028). There were no statistically significant differences in race, tumor location, and follow-up time between males and females (all P>0.05). We also enrolled 131 men (55.3%) and 106 women (44.7%) who underwent RNU for non-muscle invasive (T a/T is/T 1) UTUC between January 2000 and January 2015. These patients had no history of bladder cancer, UTUC and kidney transplantation. Preoperative cystoscopy was performed to confirm the absence of bladder tumor. The male group was (65.8±12.4)years old, with history of aristolochic acid medications in 7(5.3%) cases, 98 smoking cases (74.8%), and estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) of (64.2±29.4)ml/(min·1.73 m 2). In the female group, mean age was (66.7±11.9)years, 14 (13.2%) cases had history of aristolochic acid medications, 16(15.1%) had history of smoking, eGFR (56.3±27.9) ml/(min·1.73m 2). Compared with female patients, male patients tended to had less aristolochic acids exposure (5.3% vs.13.2%, P<0.001), frequent smoking (74.8% vs. 15.1%, P<0.001) and better renal function ( P=0.036). The Kaplan-Meier test was used for time-to-event analysis. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression models were adopted to examine the effect of gender on the development of T 3-T 4 tumor. Univariate and multivariate Cox regression analyses were used to assess the roles of factors on overall survival (OS) in both SEER and cases in our center, and competing-risks regression model was used to assess the roles of factors on cancer-specific survival (CSS) in both SEER and cases in our center. Results:Multivariate logistic analysis showed that gendere represented an independent risk factor of T 3-T 4 UTUC development( OR=0.86, P=0.02). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that better OS and CSS for females only existed in the non-muscle invasive stages(5-year OS rates were 80.4% vs.87.3%, χ 2=31.0, P<0.001; 5-year CSS rates were 82.6% vs.89.2%, χ 2=31.2, P<0.001). In multivariate competing-risks regression models, no statistically significant differences in survival were observed between males and females ( HR=0.83, P=0.115). For the patients in our center, there were also no statistically significant differences existed in the non-muscle invasive stage between two genders on OS and CSS ( HR=0.93, P=0.071; HR=0.87, P=0.064). Conclusions:Females were less likely to have advanced pathological T stage. The differences on OS and CSS between males and females only existed in non-muscle invasive stage. However, after accounting for gender related factors, gender no longer had effects on UTUC prognosis.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the expression of proline rich tyrosine kinase 2 (Pyk2) in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer,and analyze its correlation to clinicopathologic features and prognosis of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.Methods 114 surgical specimens and 50 normal bladder mucosa specimens were collected from 114 non-muscle invasive bladder cancer patients who underwent TURBT at our hospital,from June 2013 to March 2018.Of the 114 patients,63 were male and 51 were female,aged 42-87 years,average age of (63.6 ± 13.8) years,73 cases of tumor <3 cm,41 cases of tumor ≥3 cm,83 cases were single and 31 cases were multiple tumor,53 cases were high grade and 61 cases were low grade,59 cases were Ta and 55 cases were T1 stage.Pyk2 protein expression was detected by immunohistochemistry and western blot.The correlation of the expression of Pyk2 with clinicopathologic features,including gender,age,tumor size,the number of tumors,histological grade and clinical stage were analyzed.Survival analysis was calculated by using the Kaplan-Meier method,and the difference in survival curve was analyzed by using the log-rank test.Association of Pyk2 expression with prognosis of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer analyzed by using the Cox proportional hazards regression model.Results Compared with normal bladder tissues,expression of Pyk2 protein was increased in bladder cancer tissue significantly(0.571 ±0.230 vs.0.253 ± 0.152,P <0.01).The expression of Pyk2 protein was closely related to clinical stage(P =0.027) and grade(P =0.010),rather than gender (P =0.275),age (P =0.419),tumor size (P =0.317),and tumor number(P =0.208).The recurrence rate in the Pyk2 positive group and negative group were 46.1% (35/76)and 28.9% (11/38)respectively.The progression rate in the Pyk2 positive group and negative group were 35.5% (27/76) and 10.5 % (4/38) respectively.Survival analysis suggested expression of Pyk2 in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer had a significant relation to recurrence-free survival rate(P <0.001) and progression-free survival rate(P =0.003).In the multivariable Cox analysis,we found that Pyk2 protein was an independent predictor of recurrence-free survival rate(HR 0.245,95% CI 0.078-0.768,P =0.016) and progression-free survival rate (HR 0.095,95% CI 0.012-0.764,P =0.027).Conclusions The expression of Pyk2 in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer was significantly increased.The expression of Pyk2 has a significant relation to recurrence and progression of non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.High Pyk2 expression is an independent prognostic factor in non-muscle invasive bladder cancer.

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the value of Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System Version 2 (PI-RADS) based biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) for predicting prostate biopsy results in patients with elevated prostate specific antigen (PSA).Methods The bpMRI from 539 patients who took transperineal template saturate biopsy from January 2015 to October 2017 were assessed retrospectively.The average age was 69.5 years old (44-88 years),with tPSA level of 7.23 ng/ml (4-10 ng/ml),f/t PSA of 0.183(0.016-0.504),PSAD of 0.126 ng/ml2 (0.025-0.534 ng/ml2),PV of 72.42 ml (18.71-199.51 ml).The age,PSA level,free/total PSA ratio,PSA density,prostate volume,and PI-RADS score of enrolled patients were analyzed for univariate analysis and their difference was compared by chi-square test,t-test.The multivariate logistic regression analysis was also performed through SPSS to select the independent risk factors for prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant cancer (csPCa).The receiver operating characteristic curves were also constructed to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of PI-RADS in PCa to explore the best cut-off value for the diagnosis of PCa and csPCa.Results A total of 539 patients were included in our study with 244 cases being positive and 295 cases being negative.In patients with positive results,59 patients were diagnosed csPCa.According to univariate analysis results,the age(P < O.001) and PI-RADS score (P < 0.001) of the positive patients were higher than the negative patients,and the difference was statistically significant.The age of the csPCa patients (P =0.023),PSAD (P =0.048) and PI-RADS scores (P < 0.001) were higher than those of InsPCa patients,and f/t PSA (P =0.027) was lower than that of InsPCa patients with statistically significance.Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that f/t PSA (OR =2.283,P =0.049) and PI-RADS score (OR =9.046,P < 0.001) were independent risk factors for positive biopsy results,while PSAD (OR =4.54,P =0.038) and PI-RADS score (OR =8.254,P < 0.001) were independent risk factor for csPCa.The Yoden index analysis of different thresholds for prostate cancer detection indicated that PI-RADS 3 was the optimal threshold for the diagnosis of PCa,and PI-RADS 4 was the optimal threshold for the diagnosis of csPCa.Based on the combination of the above factors,the positive rate of prostate cancer was relatively high in patients with PI-RADS score ≥3 and t/t PSA < 0.2,which accounted for 86.6% (181/209).In contrast,the positive rate in patients with a PI-RADS score of ≤2 and f/t PSA≥0.2 was low,which accounted for 10.7% (6/56).The positive rate of csPCa was relatively high in patients with PI-RADS score≥4 and PSAD≥0.15 ng/ml2,which accounted for 76.0% (38/50).The positive rate of csPCa detected in patients with ≤ 3 and PSAD < 0.15 ng/ml2 was low,which accounted for 0 (0/359).Conclusions PI-RADS score could be used to reduce the unnecessary prostate biopsies in patients with elevated PSA when combined with other PSA related markers.Patients with a PI-RADS score of ≤ 3 and a PSAD ratio <0.15 ng/ml2 could avoid unnecessary biopsies.

ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND@#The blocking of the programmed cell death protein (PD-1)/programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) axis has been found to have an anticancer activity against various types of cancer by enhancing T cell immunity, while there are no studies linking the PD-1/PD-L1 axis to chemotherapy drugs in osteosarcoma (OS). The present study aimed to investigate the effects of blocking PD-1/PD-L1 axis on the cisplatin chemotherapy in OS in vitro and in vivo.@*METHODS@#Reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) was applied to detect PD-L1 mRNA in OS tissues. Cell proliferation and apoptosis were measured by Cell Counting Kit-8 (CCK-8) and flow cytometry assays, respectively. In vivo, the syngeneic mice were treated with cisplatin and anti-PD-1 antibody alone or jointly.@*RESULTS@#In this study, it revealed that PD-L1 mRNA was highly expressed in OS tissues. Further inhibitory evaluation showed that the K7M2-LV cells (PD-L1 overexpression) co-cultured with PD-1 lymphocytes could promote K7M2 cell proliferation. Meanwhile, the combination of anti-PD-1 antibody and cisplatin significantly decreased the proliferation and increased the apoptosis of K7M2 cells in a co-culture system. In vivo, the combination of anti-PD-1 antibody and cisplatin significantly inhibited tumor growth, while the mechanisms did not involve regulatory T cells.@*CONCLUSION@#The present data suggested that the blocking of PD-1/PD-L1 axis had a positive prognostic value, which can enhance the chemotherapeutic effect of cisplatin in OS. These findings provide a rationale for utilizing PD1/PD-L1 blocking antibodies as a single agent to cure refractory OS in patients receiving cisplatin treatment.

ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the value of Prostate Imaging Reporting and Data System Version 2 (PI-RADS ) based biparametric magnetic resonance imaging (bpMRI) for predicting prostate biopsy results in patients with elevated prostate specific antigen (PSA).@*Methods@#The bpMRI from 539 patients who took transperineal template saturate biopsy from January 2015 to October 2017 were assessed retrospectively. The average age was 69.5 years old (44-88 years), with tPSA level of 7.23 ng/ml (4-10 ng/ml), f/t PSA of 0.183( 0.016-0.504), PSAD of 0.126 ng/ml2 ( 0.025-0.534 ng/ml2) , PV of 72.42 ml ( 18.71-199.51 ml). The age, PSA level, free/total PSA ratio, PSA density, prostate volume, and PI-RADS score of enrolled patients were analyzed for univariate analysis and their difference was compared by chi-square test, t-test. The multivariate logistic regression analysis was also performed through SPSS to select the independent risk factors for prostate cancer (PCa) and clinically significant cancer (csPCa). The receiver operating characteristic curves were also constructed to analyze the sensitivity and specificity of PI-RADS in PCa to explore the best cut-off value for the diagnosis of PCa and csPCa.@*Results@#A total of 539 patients were included in our study with 244 cases being positive and 295 cases being negative. In patients with positive results, 59 patients were diagnosed csPCa. According to univariate analysis results, the age(P<0.001) and PI-RADS score (P<0.001) of the positive patients were higher than the negative patients, and the difference was statistically significant. The age of the csPCa patients (P=0.023), PSAD (P=0.048) and PI-RADS scores (P<0.001) were higher than those of InsPCa patients, and f/t PSA (P=0.027) was lower than that of InsPCa patients with statistically significance. Multivariate logistic regression analysis demonstrated that f /t PSA (OR=2.283, P=0.049) and PI-RADS score (OR=9.046, P<0.001) were independent risk factors for positive biopsy results, while PSAD (OR=4.54, P=0.038) and PI-RADS score (OR=8.254, P<0.001) were independent risk factor for csPCa. The Yoden index analysis of different thresholds for prostate cancer detection indicated that PI-RADS 3 was the optimal threshold for the diagnosis of PCa, and PI-RADS 4 was the optimal threshold for the diagnosis of csPCa. Based on the combination of the above factors, the positive rate of prostate cancer was relatively high in patients with PI-RADS score ≥3 and f/t PSA<0.2 , which accounted for 86.6%(181/209). In contrast, the positive rate in patients with a PI-RADS score of ≤2 and f/t PSA≥0.2 was low, which accounted for 10.7%(6/56). The positive rate of csPCa was relatively high in patients with PI-RADS score≥4 and PSAD≥0.15 ng/ml2, which accounted for 76.0%(38/50). The positive rate of csPCa detected in patients with ≤3 and PSAD<0.15 ng/ml2 was low, which accounted for 0(0/359).@*Conclusions@#PI-RADS score could be used to reduce the unnecessary prostate biopsies in patients with elevated PSA when combined with other PSA related markers. Patients with a PI-RADS score of ≤3 and a PSAD ratio <0.15 ng/ml2 could avoid unnecessary biopsies.

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the correlation between serum lipoprotein (a) (Lp(a)) level andischemic stroke and its etiological subtypes. Methods The consecutive inpatients with acute ischemic stroke (case group) and age-and sex-matched healthy subjects (control group) over the same period were enrolled retrospectively. The demographic and baseline clinical data, as well as fasting blood glucose, fibrinogen,homocysteine, total cholesterol, triacylglycerol, high-densitylipoprotein cholesterol, low -density lipoprotein cholesterol, and Lp(a) concentration of the case group and the control group were collected. According to TOAST classification criteria, the patients in the case group were divided into large artery atherosclerosis (LAA), small artery occlusion (SAO) and cardioembolism (CE), and the patients with other determined etiology and undetermined etiology were excluded. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to make clear the correlation between serum Lp(a) and acute ischemic stroke and its etiological subtypes. Results A total of 214 patients with ischemic stroke were enrolled. Ninety-seven had LAA (45.33%), 64 (29.91%) had SAO, and 53 (24.77%) had CE. There were 118 subjects in the control group. There were significant differences in the proportions of hypertension, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, atrial fibrillation and alcohol consumption, as well as systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood glucose, total cholesterol, low -density lipoprotein cholesterol, Lp(a), fibrinogen, and homocysteine between the case group and the control group (all P <0.001). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that after adjustment for age and sex, Lp(a) is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke (odds ratio [OR] 2.014, 95% confidence interval [CI ] 1.273-3.092, P = 0.036). The independent risk factors for LAA included hypertension (OR 3.353, 95% CI 1.714-6.558, P = 0.001), systolic blood pressure ( OR 2.786, 95% CI 1.136-5.538, P =0.016), homocysteine ( OR 1.108, 95% CI 1.031-2.191, P = 0.005), total cholesterol (OR 2.169, 95% CI 1.599-4.943, P = 0.001), low -density lipoprotein cholesterol ( OR2.782, 95% CI 1.093-5.238, P =0.024), and Lp(a) (OR 3.072, 95% CI 1.907-8.064, P =0.001). Theindependent risk factors for SAO included hypertension ( OR 7.042, 95% CI 3.189-25.55, P =0.001), diabetes mellitus (OR 5.162, 95% CI 2.372-11.23, P =0.001), fibrinogen (OR 1.667, 95% CI 1.434-2.025, P = 0.045), and homocysteine (OR 1.967, 95% CI 1.859-1.995, P =0.036). The independent risk factors for CE included atrial fibrillation (OR 13.340, 95% CI 4.637-39.20, P = 0.001), fibrinogen (OR 2.365, 95% CI 1.147- 4.904, P =0.029), and Lp(a) (OR 1.656, 95% CI 1.996-3.001, P = 0.035). Conclusions Lp(a) is an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke, and can be used as a serum biomarker for predicting the risk of the onset of ischemic stroke. There are differences in independent risk factors between the different stroke etiological subtypes. Lp(a) is independently associated with LAA and CE; however, it has no independent correlation with SAO.
