Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the long-term death of patients with ischemic stroke and its influencing factors.Methods:Based on the data of patients with ischemic stroke in the multi-center oral fibrinogen-lowering drug secondary prevention database, the follow-up patient information and the cause of death were registered through the epidemiological investigation method, and then compared with the baseline data of patients in the original database.Results:A total of 278 patients completed the follow-up, and 166 were in lumbrokinase group and 112 were in control group. There were 124 deaths (44.6%) within 10 years, of which 92 (74.2%) were vascular deaths. In the lumbrokinase group, 74 patients (44.6%) died of all causes and 55 (33.1%) died of vascular diseases; in the control group, 50 (44.6%) died of all causes and 37 (33.0%) died of vascular diseases. Cox proportional risk model analysis showed that lumbrokinase treatment had no significant effect on the 10-year survival rate of patients with ischemic stroke. The analysis of death influencing factors showed that the baseline international normalized ratio (INR) was significantly associated with the 10-year non-vascular death risk of patients (hazard ratio [ HR] 1.98, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.21-3.25; P=0.006). The greater the decrease of tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) within half a year, the lower the 10-year all-cause mortality risk ( HR 0.94, 95% CI 0.90-0.99; P=0.011); the greater the decrease in INR within one year , the lower the 10-year vascular death risk ( HR 0.41, 95% CI 0.17-0.96; P=0.040); the greater the decrease of D-dimer within one year , the higher the risk of the 10-year vascular death ( HR 1.37, 95% CI 1.02-1.83; P=0.034). The greater the decrease of INR in patients with ischemic stroke within one year, the higher the 10-year non-vascular death risk ( HR 2.15, 95% CI 1.29-3.59; P=0.004). Conclusions:The 10-year mortality rate of patients with ischemic stroke is higher, and about 3/4 are vascular deaths. The fibrinogen-lowering treatment in the acute stage has no significant effect on the 10-year all-cause mortality of patients with ischemic stroke. The greater the decrease of tPA in half a year, the lower the all-cause mortality; the greater the decrease of D-dimer level at baseline and within 1 year, the higher the 10-year vascular death; the greater the decrease of INR at baseline and within 1 year, the higher the 10-year non-vascular death risk.
