Abstract:
Objective To determine the association between serum lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) and early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods Two hundred and fifty-five AIS patients diagnosed by MR imaging were recruited between January 2011 and July 2015.The levels of serum Lp-PLA2 and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) were assessed right after hospitalization.END was defined as any increase in National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores ≥ 2 in the first 72 h after stroke onset,and the patients were accordingly divided into END group and non-END group.Risk factors associated with END and their clinical data were analyzed by Logistic regression analysis.Results END was observed in 72 of the 255 patients (28.23%).The percentage of female (58.3% vs.31.3%),smoking ratio (58.3% vs.31.3%),diabetes mellitus ratio (73.6% vs.16.9%),prior stroke ratio (44.4% vs.25.1%),NHISS scores (8 [3] vs.3 [2]),serum Lp-PLA2 level (230.31 ±75.57 μg/L vs.87.60±28.45 μg/L) and hs-CRP level (20.08±8.05 mg/L vs.6.73±3.48 mg/L) in the END group were significantly higher than those in the non-END group (P<0.05).Multiple Logistic regression analyses indicated that END was positively associated with diabetes mellitus (OR=4.903,95%CI:1.363-17.695,P=0.015),Lp-PLA2 level (OR=1.032,95%CI:1.013-1.043,P=0.000) and hs-CRP level (OR=1.229,95%CI:1.087-1.391,P=0.001) in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Conclusion Serum Lp-PLA2 may predict END in Chinese patients with acute ischemic stroke.
