Abstract:
Objective To investigate the correlation between blood pressure variability (BPV) and early neurological deterioration (END) in patients with acute anterior circulation large artery atherosclerotic (LAA)stroke. Methods From January 2015 to June 2018, consecutive patients with anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke admitted to the Department of Neurology, the Affiliated Hospital of Yangzhou University were enrolled prospectively. According to the etiological classification, they were divided into LAA group and non-LAA group. By monitoring the blood pressure within 72 h of hospitalization, the mean, maximum (max)and minimum (min) values, and the difference between max and min (max-min), standard deviation (SD),and coefficient of variation (CV; CV = SD × 100/mean) were calculated. END was defined as the highest score of the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) within 72 h of admission increased by ≥2than the baseline. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the correlation between BPV parameters and END. Results A total of 271 patients with anterior circulation acute ischemic stroke were enrolled, including 101 females (37. 3%) and 170 males (62. 7%), with an average age of 64. 99 ± 11. 51 years. There were 95 patients (35. 1%) with LAA and 176 (64. 9%) with non-LAA. In the LAA group and non-LAA group, 36 patients (37.9%) and 50 patients (28.4%) developed END respectively. The comparison between END patients and non-END patients in the LAA group showed that there were significant differences in age, sex, diabetes mellitus, baseline NIHSS score and C-reactive protein, as well as SBPmax , SBPmax-min , SBPSD , SBPCV, DBPmax , DBPmax-min , DBPSD , and DBPCV in BPV indices (all P < 0. 05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that many BPV indices were the independent risk factors for END, including SBPmax (odds ratio [OR] 1. 027, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1. 003-1. 052; P = 0. 027),SBPmax-min (OR 1. 041, 95%CI 1. 015-1. 068; P = 0. 002), SBPSD (OR 1. 177, 95% CI 1. 048-1. 322; P =0. 006), SBPCV (OR 1. 226, 95% CI 1. 036-1.451; P = 0. 018), DBPmax (OR 1. 073, 95% CI 1. 017-1. 133;P = 0. 010), DBPmax-min (OR 1. 107, 95%CI 1. 044-1. 174; P = 0. 001), DBPSD (OR 1. 693, 95%CI 1. 268- 2. 260; P < 0. 001), and DBPCV(OR 1. 726, 95%CI 1. 311-2. 271; P < 0. 001). In the non-LAA group, there were no significant association between all BPV parameters and the occurrence of END. Conclusion BPV was significantly correlated with END in patients with anterior circulation LAA.
