Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the relationship between renal function and the total cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD)score in elderly patients with a mild stroke.Methods:Patients with a mild stroke(National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score≤3)and aged 60 years and above hospitalized in our hospital from March to December 2019 were consecutively enrolled.Total CSVD scores were evaluated based on enlarged perivascular spaces, cerebral microbleeds, white matter hyperintensities of presumed vascular origin and lacunes of presumed vascular origin.The estimated glomerular filtration rate(eGFR)was derived by using the formula of chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration based on serum creatinine(CKD-EPI Scr). The relationship between eGFR and the total CSVD score was analyzed. Results:Of the 152 patients enrolled, 35, 38, 39, 28 and 12 had total CSVD scores of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively.The age of patients increased and eGFR decreased with the increase of total CSVD scores(CSVD from 0 to 4, [(67.43±6.59), (68.42±6.83), (72.18±7.94), (76.46±7.75) vs.(79.92±6.17)years old, F=12.018, P<0.001]; [(92.94±12.45)ml·min -1·1.73m -2, (90.52±8.62)ml·min -1·1.73m -2, (89.45±8.48)ml·min -1·1.73m -2 and(83.90±7.19)ml·min -1·1.73m -2vs.(79.16±7.77)ml·min -1·1.73m -2, F=7.210, P<0.001]. Spearman correlation analysis showed that eGFR was negatively correlated with the total CSVD score( r=-0.399, P<0.001). After adjusting for risk factors including age, gender and hypertension, multivariate ordinary regression analysis showed that decreased eGFR was an independent risk factor for the total CSVD score( OR=0.957, 95% CI: 0.924-0.990, P=0.012). Conclusions:In elderly patients with a mild stroke, eGFR is an independent risk factor for the total CSVD score, which shows an increased burden as eGFR decreases.
