Abstract:
ObjectiveTo investigate the relation between each subtype of cerebral ischemic stroke classified by NEW-TOAST criteria and the levels of blood sugar. MethodsA retrospective study in 624 patients hospitalized with acute cerebral ischemic stroke. All the patients were classified using NEW-TOAST classification standard. Blood glucose in patients with different stroke subtypes was recorded, and analyzed for the incidence of abnormal glucose metabolism in each subtype. The correlation of glucose to blood sugar,blood pressure and blood fat was analyzed using odd ratio (OR) and 95％ confidence intervals (CI).Results(1) Among 624 patients, the most common stroke subtype by NEW-TOAST classificationis atherothrombosis (AT), followed by small arterial occlusion (SAO). One hundred and nineteen patients (19. 1％ ) had diabetes history; another 40 patients(7.5％ ) were newly diagnosed with diabetes in this study; and 71 patients ( 11.4％ ) were found to have glycoregulation abnormality. The incidence of abnormal glycometabolism was high in patients with AT ( 40. 4％ ) and SAO ( 39. 7％ ). ( 2 ) Association analysis between stroke subtypes and blood sugar: x2 =14. 83,P =0. 020, r =0. 152; in SAO patients, OR was 1. 925 (95％ CI 1. 392-2. 664) ; in the patients with AT, there was no correlation to blood sugar levels.Association analysis of high blood pressure in stroke subtypes: in AT patients, OR was 2. 874 (95％ CI 1. 957-4. 222) ; in SAO, OR was 1. 609 (95％ CI 1. 100-1. 235). Association analysis of high LDL-C in each subtype: OR in SAO was 1.419 (95％ CI 1.026-1. 962) ;No significant correlation of LDL-C in AT patients, P =0. 929 ; (3) There is significant difference of frequency of abnormal glycometabolism between stroke subtypes: x2 =17. 79 ,P =0. 000; between AT and SAO patients, x2 =0. 024,P =0. 877; between AT or SAO patients to other three subtypes, P ＜ 0. 05. ConclusionsAmong the subtypes of cerebral ischemic stroke by NEW-TOAST classification, AT and SAO are the most common subtypes.All the subtypes have correlation to the high level of blood sugar, and SAO has the highest correlation to blood sugar levels. High blood pressure may affect both large vessels and small vessels, while high LDL-C may mainly affect small vessels.
