Abstract:
Objective To analyze the correlation of plasma homocysteine (Hcy) level with hemodynamic parameters and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) level in patients with lacunar infarction and its significance in lacunar infarction.Methods Transcranial Doppler examination was performed in 120 patients with lacunar infarction admitted to our hospital from February 2012 to March 2013 and 100 healthy controls; systolic flow velocity (SFV),distalotic flow velocity (DFV),mean flow velocity (MFV) and pulsatility index (PI) were assessed at the middle cerebral artery (MCA) and basilar artery (BA).Serum creatinine,total cholesterol,triglycerides,HDL-C,and low-densitylipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) levels were detected using enzymatic colorimetric method.Plasma Hcy level was measured by circulating enzymatic method.Results Blood flow velocity indexes,such as SFV,DFV,MFV and PI in the MCA of lacunar cerebral infarction patients,were significantly higher than those in their BA and the MCA blood of control group,with statistically significant differences (P＜0.05); blood flow velocity indexes,such as MFV and PI in the BA of lacunar cerebral infarction patients,were higher than those in the BA of the control group,with significant differences (P＜0.05).Lacunar cerebral infarction patients had significantly higher levels of Hcy,total cholesterol,LDL-C,tdglycerides,and HDL-C as compared with control group,with statistical differences (P＜0.05).Linear correlation analysis showed that PI of MCA and BA and Hcy level were positively correlated in lacunar infarction patients (r=0.530,P=0.020; r=0.450,P=0.010); and HDL-C and Hcy levels had negative correlation (r=-0.308,P=0.010).Conclusion A significant association between plasma Hcy and PI of cerebral arteries and serum HDL-C level indicates that Hcy plays a role in the increase of distal arterial resistance in lacunar infarction.
