Abstract:
Objective To investigate the incidence and risk factors of cerebral microbleeds(CMB) in ischemic stroke patients.Methods Patients with cerebral infarction for 1~6 months were recruited.Clinical data were recorded.MRI was reviewed blindly to determine the number of CMB and lacunar infarcts and the white matter lesions(WML).The independent risk factors of CMB were analyzed with the Logistic multivariable regression.Results 636 subjects were included.CMB were found in 250 cases(39.3%).The incidence of CMB in patients of ≤50,50~65 and >65 years old were 27.2%,38.1% and 47.6% respectively(P<0.05).CMB was more frequent in patients with more lacunar infarcts(P<0.05).The incidence of CMB in patients with negative,mild,moderate and severe WML were 21.9%,33.8%,46.9%and 63.1% respectively(P<0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that history of hypertension(OR=1.523,95% CI 1.019~2.276),severity of WML(OR=1.535,95% CI 1.258~1.874) and lacunar infarcts(OR=1.517,95% CI 1.087~2.118) were the independent risk factors for presence of CMB.Conclusion CMB was frequent in ischemic stroke.The frequency of CMB increased with aging,grade of lacunar infarcts and WML.History of hypertension,severity of WML and lacunar infarcts were the independent risk factors for CMB presence.
