Abstract:
Objective To study the characteristics of Chinese ischemic stroke subclassification (CISS) in relation with migration to different climatic zones in autumn and winter.Methods Ninety-six subjects who travelled from northeast China,northwest China and north China to Hainan Province from September 2012 to February 2017 and were admitted to our hospital due to cerebral infarction occurred within 3 weeks after they arrived at Hainan were included in this study.Their demographic data,risk factors for cerebrovascular disease,laboratory blood test and imaging parameters were recorded.The patients were classified according to their medical history,auxiliary examination findings and CISS.The recorded data were statistically analyzed.Results CISS showed that penetrating artery disease,large artery atherosclerosis,cardiogenic stroke,and undetermined etiology accounted for 50.0％,38.5％,4.2％,7.3％ respectively.Hypertension (70.8 ％) and abnormal glucose metabolism (61.5％) were the major risk factors for cerebral in farction.Conclusion The incidence of penetrating artery disease is the highest,followed by that of large artery atherosclerosis in cerebral infarction patients.Alert to cerebral infarction should thus be stressed for those with hypertension and abnormal glucose metabolism who are going to travel in autumn and winter.
