Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of cystatin C (CysC) concentration on outcome of intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke.Methods The consecutive patients with acute ischemic stroke who underwent intravenous thrombolysis were enrolled retrospectively.They were divided into a good outcome group (≤2) and a poor outcome group (>2) according to the Rankin scale.They were also divided into a hemorrhagic transformation (HT) group and a non-HT group according to whether they had HT or not.Their demographic data and clinical data were compared.Results A total of 103 patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis were enrolled,44 in the good outcome group,59 in the poor outcome group; 23 in the TH group,and 80 in the non-HT group.The age (62.34 ± 13.41 years vs.68.09 ± 9.74 years; t-2.521,P =0.013),baseline CysC concentration (1.008±0.28 mg/L vs.1.27±0.86 mg/L; t=2.237,P=0.027),incidence of HT (14% vs.34.9%; x2 =6.016,P =0.014) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (10.39 ± 3.11 vs.18 ±2.65; t =13.35,P <0.001) in the good outcome group were significantly lower than those in the poor outcome group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that there was no significant independent correlation between CysC and clinical outcome (odds ratio 1.783,95% confidence interval 0.443-7.185 ; P =0.416).The baseline CysC concentration (1.41 ± 0.54 mg/L vs.0.96± 0.18 mg/L; t =3.941,P=0.001) and the NIHSS score (15.96 ± 3.7 vs.13.05 ±4.87; t =3.017,P =0.004) in the non-HT group were significantly lower than those in the HT group.Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the plasma CysC concentration > 1.03 mg/L (odds ratio 9.050,95% confidence interval 2.384-34.359; P =0.001) was an independent risk factor for HT.Conclusions The increased baseline plasma CysC concentration was associated with the occurrence of HT in patients with acute ischemic stroke after intravenous thrombolysis therapy,but it was not associated with the outcomes.
