Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship between the serum anticardiolipin antibody (ACA),vascular endothelial grow factor (VEGF) concentration and cognitive impairment in patients with ischemic stroke.Methods Totally 128 cases with acute ischemic stroke were admmitted in stroke unit ward of our hospital during June 2014 to December 2014.According to the score of Montreal cognitive assessnent (MoCA),128 patients with ischemic stroke were divided into groups A (53 cases with cognitive impairment) and group B (75 cases without cognitive impairment).The concentrations of serum ACA,VEGF were quantitatively determinated by ELISA.The differences of serum ACA,VEGF concentrations were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with normal cognitive function group,the cognitive impairment patients had significantly higher ACA concentration ((0.86±0.16) mg/L vs (0.52±0.08) mg/L,P<0.01),and lower VEGF concentration ((197.60±7.48) pg/ml vs (205.80±8.52) pg/ml,P<0.05).Logistic regression revealed that ACA and VEGF were independent effect factors for cognitive impairment (ACA:B =2.841,OR =0.33,95 % CI =0.118-0.926,P=0.025.V EGF:B =-1.674,OR =4.99,95% CI =1.688-4.741,P=0.034).Conclusion ACA and VEGF may play an important role in cognitive impairment after ischemic stroke.
