The correlation between prognosis and the related factors of transient ischemic attack of vertebrobasilar artery vertige in old patients in the first 24 hours / 西安交通大学学报(医学版)

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the onset and risk factors of the transient ischemic attack of vertebrobasilar artery vertige in old patients. Methods Patients were divided into group A, group B, group C based on attack times of vertige and whether cerebral thrombosis was formed within half a year. Blood biochemistry index, blood pressure variation, carotid ultrasonic examination results in the first 24 hours were compared. Results High sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), systolic blood pressure (SBP), diastolic blood pressure(DBP), blood sugar(BS), cholesterol(TC), triglyceride(TG), common carotid artery resistance of group A index(CCARI), internal carotid artery resistance index(ICARI) and atherosis plaque index in the first 24 hours were significantly lower than those of group C (P0.05). Logistic regression indicated that hs-CRP, DBP, BS, TC, CCARI, ICARI and plaque index were correlated with risk factors of the transient ischemic attack of vertebrobasilar artery vertige and cerebral thrombosis in old patients. Conclusion hs-CRP, SBP, BS, TC, CCARI, ICARI and plaque index elevation might be an early warning index for the unstability and easy drop of the carotid's plaque.
