Résumé
Serum lipid profile is, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL), low density lipoprotein (LDL) and triglycerides and serum cardiac enzymes ie, creatinine phosphokinase (CPK), creatinine phosphokinase isoenzyme MB (CPK-MB), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST/SGOT) levels were estimated in 50 cases of cerebrovascular accidents (CVA) consisting of 26 cases of cerebral haemorrhage and 24 cases of cerebral thrombosis. All analyses were made on day 1 and day 7. Serum cholesterol, LDL and triglycerides levels were significantly higher in CVA patients on day 1. Lipid level fell significantly on day 7 in respect to day 1. On comparing the lipid levels between cerebral haemorrhage and cerebral thrombosis, no significant difference was observed. Cardiac enzymes like CPK and CPK-MB were significantly raised whereas, AST/SGOT and LDH were marginally raised on day 1 in CVA patients. However, there was no change in cardiac enzyme levels between cerebral haemorrhage and cerebral thrombosis patients.

In this study of stress testing, the posture in which patients were put had effect on heart rate, blood pressure, rate pressure product and ST-segment depression integral in the recovery phase. The systolic blood pressure in recovery phase of stress testing fell more rapidly towards normal pre-exercise value in sitting (Group I) than in lying down (Group II) posture (p < 0.05) from 2nd to 5th minute. The changes in heart rate were less and slower in lying posture than with sitting up. The decrease in rate pressure product (RPP), a determinant of myocardial oxygen requirement was lower in lying down than in sitting up posture (p < 0.05) from 2nd to 5th minute of recovery. Consequently, ST-depression, a marker of ischaemia was more marked in lying down than sitting up. The ST-depression integral was 4.15 +/- 1.2 and 7.10 +/- 1.65 in 2nd minute in group I and group II respectively, and the difference was statistically significant in 2nd, 7th (p < 0.05) and 8th minute (p < 0.01) of recovery. These changes are important in interpretation of results of exercise testing.
