Changes of cerebral vascular hemodynamics from normal population to stroke / 中华流行病学杂志

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To probe into changes of cerebral vascular hemodynamics indexes (CVHI) from normal population to different clinical stage before and after occurring of stroke.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Participants were selected from 25,355 stroke cohort study population aged 35 years and over in Northeast of China and 55 acute stroke patients were selected from Fuzhou PLA General Hospital. CVHI indexes were checked during baseline investigation or within one week after acute stroke. Participant enlisted in the study were divided into following 5 groups, normal population, high risk population, individuals before stroke, acute stroke patients and convalescence stroke patients. Characteristics of CVHI indexes in different population were analyzed and compared.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>V(min) of cerebral vascular in previous defined 5 group participants were 11.39 +/- 3.27, 9.66 +/- 3.18, 6.71 +/- 3.30, 4.13 +/- 1.27, 6.78 +/- 3.09, respectively. V(mean) and V(max) were with the same decreasing trends as V(min). However, RV in 5 group participants were 62.35 +/- 21.11, 82.32 +/- 31.16, 122.72 +/- 52.73, 137.46 +/- 49.56 and 115.89 +/- 55.51, respectively. Zcv, WV, DR and CP were also with the same increasing trends as RV. Abnormal rate of CVHI score (< 75 points) from normal population to convalescence stroke patients were 13.3%, 34.7%, 74.1%, 100% and 66.7%, respectively.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>From normal population to clinical stage of stroke, cerebral vascular velocity showed decreasing trends while other indexes, such as RV, Zcv, WV, DR and CP were increasing.</p>
