Abstract:
Objective To investigate the risk factors for cerebral microbleeds (CMBs) in patients with non-disabling ischemic cerebrovascular events (NICE).Methods From January 2017 to September 2018,patients with NICE admitted to the Department of Neurology,the Second Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University were enrolled.The relevant clinical data were collected and the cranial MRI examinations were completed.CMBs were detected by susceptibility-weighted imaging.The demographic and clinical data of the CMBs group and non-CMBs group were compared.Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent risk factors for CMBs.Multivariate linear regression analysis was used to determine the independent influencing factors of the number of CMBs.Results A total of 159 patients were enrolled,including 73 (45.9％) in the CMBs group and 86 (54.1％) in the non-CMBs group.There were significant differences in hypertension,diabetes mellitus,past stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) history,carotid atherosclerosis,NICE classification (TIA,mild stroke) and the proportion of patients taking drugs before onset,as well as diastolic blood pressure and white matter Fazekas score between the CMBs group and the non-CMBs group (all P＜ 0.05).Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed higher diastolic blood pressure (odds ratio 1.047,95％ confidence interval 1.016-1.079;P =0.002) and higher Fazekas score (odds ratio 1.825,95 ％ confidence interval 1.465-2.273;P ＜ 0.001) were the independent risk factors for CMBs.Multiple linear regression analysis showed that there was an independent positive correlation between the white matter Fazekas score and the number of CMBs (r =0.273,P ＜ 0.001).Conclusion In patients with NICE,CMBs were associated with higher diastolic blood pressure level and higher white matter Fazekas score,and the white matter Fazekas score was positively correlated with the severity of CMBs.
