Abstract:
Objective To study of characters of memory disfunction of the patients with transient ischemic attack(TIA) in internal carotid artery system(ICAs) and vertebra-basilar artery system(VBAs) when the clinical symptoms disappeared,and to explore correlation between memory disability and illness course,frequency and persistence time of TIA.Methods 42 patients with TIA in ICAs(ICAs group),36 patients with TIA in VBAs(VBAs group) were measured by clinical remembrance scale,MMSE and Zung self-rating depressive scale in 3~7 d after the final attack.the results were compared with 30 health volunteers(normal control group).Correlation analysis was made between memory disability and illness course,frequency and persistence time of TIA.Results(1)There was no significant difference in clinical remembrance scale scores between ICAs group and VBAs group.The equivalent scale scores of clinical remembrance but insignificant figure recognition item in both TIA groups were significantly lower than that in the normal control group(all P
