Abstract:
Objective To investigate the predictive factors of outcome in young patients with mild acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis. Methods Consecutive young patients with mild acute ischemic stroke ( age 18- 45 years ) treated with intravenous thrombolysis were enrol ed retrospectively. According to the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score at day 90 after onset, they were divided into either a poor outcome group ( mRS ≥2 ) or a good outcome group ( mRS 0- 1 ). The demographic and baseline clinical characteristics were compared. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the independent predictive factors of poor outcome in young patients with mild acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis. Results A total of 57 young patients with acute mild ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis were enrol ed, including 41 patients (71. 93%) had good outcome and 16 (28. 07%) had poor outcome. There were significant differences in the proportion of the patients with previous stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) (25. 00% vs. 4. 88%; P=0. 046), smoking (56. 25% vs. 19. 51%; P=0. 010 ), atrial fibril ation (31. 25% vs. 7. 32%; P=0. 032 ), diabetes (62. 50% vs. 21. 95%;χ2 =8. 515, P=0. 004), large artery atherosclerotic stroke (68. 75% vs. 21. 95%;χ2 =11. 067, P=0. 001 ), and receiving antiplatelet therapy before symptom onset (6. 25% vs. 34. 15%;P=0. 044) and the age (Z=2. 396, P=0. 020) between the poor outcome group and the good outcome group. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the age (odds ratio [OR] 2. 64, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1. 28-5. 36;P=0. 038), history of previous stroke or TIA (OR 2. 25, 95% CI 1. 22-4. 31;P=0. 042), atrial fibril ation (OR 5. 12, 95% CI 1. 58-19. 23; P=0. 032), and large artery atherosclerotic stroke (OR 5. 89, 95% CI 1. 78-19. 92; P=0. 002) were the independent risk factors for poor outcome after mild acute ischemic stroke thrombolytic therapy. Conclusions Age, history of stroke or TIA, atrial fibril ation, and large artery atherosclerotic stroke were the predictive factors of poor outcome at day 90 in young patients with mild acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis.
