ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the major risk factors for posterior circulation stroke and the clinical and imaging features of posterior circulation stroke patients with diabetes.Methods The patients with acute cerebral infarction were enrolled.The clinical data of patients with posterior circulation and anterior circulation stroke were compared.The patients with posterior circulation stroke were further divided into either a diabetic group or a non-diabetic group,and the vascular risk factors and imaging features of both groups were compared.The patients with posterior circulation stroke were divided into proximal segment,middle segment and distal segment and mixed groups according to the distribution of vascular lesions.The correlations between diabetes and each group and the imaging features were analyzed.Results A total of 328 patients with posterior circulation stroke (male 194,the diabetic group 108) and 336 patients with anterior circulation stroke (male 214,the diabetes group 59)were enrolled.The proportions of patients with diabetes (32.9% vs.21.7% ; x2 =10.501,P =0.001),hyperlipidemia (60.1% vs.47.9% ;x2 =9.852,P =0.002),previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) (29.0% vs.22.0% ;x2 =4.213,P =0.040) in the posterior circulation ischemic stroke group were significantly higher than those in the anterior circulation ischemic stroke group,and the proportion of smoking patients was significantly lower than that in the anterior circulation ischemic stroke group (18.3% vs.26.2% ; x2 =5.977,P =0.014).The levels of total cholesterol (4.72 ±1.07 mmol/L vs.4.56 ± 0.98 mmol/L; t =2.079,P =0.038),triglycerides (1.54 ± 1.07 mmol/L vs.1.33±0.71 mmol/L; t=3.085,P=0.002) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (2.91±0.90 mmol/L vs.2.75 ±0.80 mmol/L; t =2.373,P =0.018) were significantly higher than those in the anterior circulation ischemic stroke group,and the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol was significantly lower than that in the anterior circulation ischemic stroke group (1.13 ± 0.31 mmol/L vs.1.18 ±0.32 mmol/L; t =2.045,P=0.041).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes (odds ratio [OR] 1.560,95% confidence interval [CI] 1.086-2.239; P =0.016) and previous stroke or TIA history (OR 1.455,95% CI 1.013-2.090; P =0.042) were the independent risk factors for posterior circulation ischemic stroke.In patients with posterior circulation ischemic stroke,the patient's proportions of hyperllpidemia (66.7% vs.55.5% ;x2 =5.069,P =0.024) and drinking (13.0% vs.4.5%;x2 =7.568,P=0.006) in the diabetic group (n =108) were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group (n =220); the proportion of atrial fibrillation patients was significantly lower than that in the non-diabetic group (3.7% vs.11.4% ;x2 =5.274,P =0.022).The levels of triglycerides (1.70 ± 0.93 rnmol/L vs.1.45 ± 1.11 mmol/L; t =1.989,P =0.048),fasting glucose (8.46 ± 2.96) mmol/L vs.5.30± 0.96 mmol/L; t=10.706,P=0.000) and glycosylated hemoglobin (8.36% ± 1.94% vs.6.07% ± 0.55% ; t =10.576,P =0.000) in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group.The proportion of patients with large artery atherosclerosis stroke in the diabetic group was significantly higher than that in the non-diabetic group (73.1% vs.60.0%; x2=5.457,P=0.019); the proportion of the patients with cardioembolism was significantly lower than that of the non-diabetic group (2.8% vs.9.1%;x2 =4.428,P =0.035).The proportion of patients with posterior circulation middle segment infarction in the diabetic group was significantly higher than that of the non-diabetic group (49.1% vs.31.4% ;x2 =9.726,P =0.002).The proportions of the patients with brainstem infarction (60.2% vs.48.2% ;x2 =4.182,P =0.041) and single brainstem infarction (55.6% vs.30.5% ;x2 =19.235,P =0.000) in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group.In patients with single brainstem infarction,the proportions of the patients with pontine infarction (43.5% vs.25.9% ;x2 =10.374,P =0.001) and medulla oblongata infarction (7.4% vs.1.8% ; P =0.023) in the diabetic group were significantly higher than those in the non-diabetic group.Conclusions Diabetes and previous stroke or TIA history are the independent risk factor for posterior circulation stroke.Diabetes is closely associated with brainstem infarction,and it is more likely to result in pontine infarction.
