Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of blood lipids and statins use on the outcome of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients with cerebral microbleeds (CMBs).Methods:Consecutive AIS patients with CMBs hospitalized at the First People's Hospital of Taicang, Jiangsu Province from July 2023 to June 2024 were included retrospectively. At 3 months after onset, the modified Rankin Scale was used for outcome assessment. 0-2 was defined as good outcome and >2 was defined as poor outcome. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent influencing factors for poor outcome. Results:A total of 110 AIS patients with CMBs were enrolled, including 72 males (65.5%), aged 68.04±3.12 years. Thirty patients (27.3%) had poor outcome. Univariate analysis showed that age, baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score, total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, and the proportion of patients with hypertension and diabetes in poor outcome group were significantly higher than those in good outcome group, while baseline high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and the proportion of patients using statins before onset were significantly lower than those in good outcome group ( P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (odds ratio [ OR] 1.309, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.007-1.702; P=0.044), the baseline NIHSS score ( OR 1.541, 95% CI 1.143-2.078; P=0.005) and high triglycerides ( OR 5.150, 95% CI 2.150-8.717; P=0.023) were the independent risk factors for poor outcome, while high high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ( OR 0.001, 95% CI 0.001-0.034; P<0.001) and statins use ( OR 0.231, 95% CI 0.046-0.558; P=0.019) were the independent protective factors for good outcome. Conclusions:Blood lipid and statins use are independent influencing factors for the outcome of AIS patients with CMBs. The use of statins before onset is associated with a lower risk of poor outcome in AIS patients with CMBs.
