ABSTRACT
Atherosclerosis is the pathological basis of ischemic stroke. Peripheral blood leukocytes are involved in the occurrence and progression of atherosclerosis and cause vascular endothelial injury. A series of changes of peripheral immune cel take place after acute ischemic stroke and cause inflammatory cel infiltrating into the brain tissue. The elevated leukocyte count is closely associated with the occurrence and prognosis of coronary atherosclerotic heart disease. Studies have also shown that the elevated leukocyte count may influence the occurrence of ischemic stroke, neurological deficit, recurrence, and death. This article reviews the relationship between peripheral blood leukocytes and ischemic stroke.
