RESUMO
Objective To investigate the risk of hemorrhagic transformation (HT) in light acute cerebral ischemic infarction patients with cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) and combined clopidogrel-aspirin treatment. Methods One hundred and twenty- eight patients with light acute cerebral ischemic infarction were selected from January 2015 to January 2017. The patients were divided into non-CMBs group and CMBs group according to the cerebral MRI result; the patients in CMBs group were subdivided into brain lobe subgroup, deep subgroup and mixed subgroup according to the anatomic site of CMBs, and the incidence of HT was compared among the subgroups. Risk factors related to HT in patients with light acute cerebral ischemic infarction were analyzed by Logistic regression. Results The incidence of CMBs was 54.7％ (70/128). There was no statistical difference in the incidence of HT between CMBs group and non-CMBs group (P>0.05). In CMBs group, the number of patients with HT in lobe of brain subgroup (13 cases) was 5, in deep subgroup (43 cases) was 5, in mixed subgroup (14 cases) was 3, and there was statistical difference (χ2 = 7.465, P = 0.036). Multifactor Logistic regression analysis result showed that atrial fibrillation (OR = 6.590, 95％ CI 2.561 to 17.282, P = 0.000) and fasting blood glucose (OR = 1.132, 95％ CI 1.544 to 2.953, P = 0.025) were the independent risk factors of HT in patients with light acute cerebral ischemic infarction. Conclusions The combined clopidogrel-aspirin treatment does not increase the risk of HT in patients with light acute cerebral ischemic infarction combined CMBs, but the combined clopidogrel-aspirin treatment in patients with brain lobe CMBs should be careful.
RESUMO
Objeetive To explore the correlative factors of early progressive motor deficits in cerebral infarction of moderately size in basal ganglia and the relationship between motor deficit progression and the stem lesion of middle cerebral artery.Methods One hundred and fifty patients with single acute infarction located in white matter of basal ganglia region were recruited in this study retrospectively.All patients were performed brain and neck MRI and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) within 72 h after onset.They were divided into two groups based on the maximal diameter of infarction on diffuse weighing imaging(DWI):moderate size infarction group(75 patients,maximal diameter of infarction from 1.5 cm to 3.0 cm) and lacunar infarction group(75 patients,maximal diameter of infarction lower than 1.5 cm).The scores of dynamic National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale(NIHSS) in 7 d after the admission and multiple Logistic regression analysis were used and the risk factors of the early progressive motor deficits were analyzed.Results The rate of early progressive motor deficits in moderate size infarction group was significant higher than that in lacunar infarction group [32.0 ％ (24/75) vs.8.0 ％ (6f75)] (P ＜ 0.05).The multiple Logistic regression analysis showed that elevated systolic blood pressure on admission was the independent risk factor for early progressive motor deficits (P =0.016).The rate of stem lesion of middle cerebral artery in moderate size infarction group was significantly higher than that in lacunar infarction group [41.3 ％ (31/75) vs.9.3 ％ (7/75)] (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Patients with acute single infarction located in white matter of basal ganglia and with the diameter of 1.5-3.0 cm are more prone to early progressive motor deficits and elevated systolic blood pressure on admission is the most significantly independent factor.The pathogenic mechanism may be associated with the stem lesion of middle cerebral artery.
