Abstract:
Objective To investigate the relationship between plasma homocysteine levels and lipids in aged patients with acute cerebral infarction(ACI).Methods Fourty-eight cases(observation group),who had been inpatients with cerebral infarction during May 2006 to May 2007,thirty healthy people(control group)contrasted and analyzed.Results The mean plasma homocysteine level and cholesterol(TC),triglycerides(TG),low density lipoprotein(LDL)of aged patients with acute cereral infarction were significantly,higher than those of the control group,but high density lipoprotein(HDL)was lower(P<0.01).No significant correlation between Hcy level and TC,TG,HDL-C,LDL-C level in serum.Conclusion Plasma homocysteine lexrel and lipids all siginificantly increased in aged patients with acute cereral infarction,and homocysteinemia is not related with lipids,but is an independent risk factor for cerebral infarction.
