Abstract:
Objective To explore the relationship among the blood glucose level and cerebral infarction(CI) size, neurological deficits, clinical outcome, complications and mortality in diabetic patients with cerebral infarction. Methods 60 cases of diabetes complicated with cerebral infarction and 60 normoglycemic patients with cerebral infarction were enrolled in this study, and the clinical data were compared between the two groups of patients. Results Compared with normoglycemic patients with cerebral infarction, diabetic patients with cerebral infarction had larger infarct size,more neurological deficits, worse clinical outcome,more complications and higher mortality because cerebral infarction occurred in the main branch. Infarction size was positively related with blood glucose level. Conclusion Hyperglycemia aggravated cerebral infarction and brain damage.Proper insulin administration to control blood glucose level was beneficial to the treatment and prognosis of cerebral infarction.
