Abstract:
Objective To investigate serum levels of small dense low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (sdLDL-C)in transient ischemic attacks(TIA)patients and assess their predictive values for subsequent stroke risk after TIA.Methods Clinical case-control study.Serum sdLDL-C levels were determined in 96 TIA patients who were admitted to Jinling Hospital from January 2016 to December 2016 and 44 healthy controls who had contemporaneously visited Jinling Hospital For a routine or the routine.ABCD3-I scores in TIA patients were calculated.All TIA patients were classified into three subgroups:high-risk(8≤ABCD3-I≤13,n=23), moderate-risk(4≤ABCD3-I≤7, n=36)and low-risk(0≤ABCD3-I≤3, n=37). Total cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and other lipid/lipoprotein parameters in TIA patients and controls were also analyzed.Spearman correlation analyses and multivariate linear regression analyses were performed to investigate the association of serum sdLDL-C levels with ABCD3-I scores.Logistic regression analyses were performed to investigate the predictive values of serum sdLDL-C for TIA patients.Results Serum sdLDL-C levels were significantly increased in TIA patients compared with controls(t=-5.202,P<0.001).Furthermore,sdLDL-C levels in high-risk patients were significantly higher than that in moderate-risk(t=3.534, P=0.001)and low-risk(t=4.154,P<0.001)patients.Serum sdLDL-C levels were positively correlated with ABCD 3-I scores(r=0.317,P=0.002)in TIA patients.The stepwise multiple regression analysis showed that only sdLDL-C was a significant independent predictor of ABCD 3-I scores(β=0.481,P=0.032,adjusted R2=0.189), after adjusting for age, gender, blood pressure and other lipid/lipoprotein parameters.Binary Logistic analyses indicated that serum sdLDL-C levels were closely associated with TIA presence(OR=2.84,95%CI =1.42 -5.70, P=0.003), after adjustment with age, gender, blood pressure and other lipid/lipoprotein parameters.Conclusions Serum sdLDL-C levels were increased in TIA patients.The significantly independent associations of sdLDL-C levels with ABCD3-I scores were observed.Serum sdLDL-C levels may contribute to assessing subsequent stroke risk after TIA.(Chin J Lab Med,2018,41:316-320)
