Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics of elderly patients with acute myo-cardial infarction(AMI)complicated with ischemic stroke and provide reference for the formula-tion of more precise prevention and treatment strategies.Methods A retrospective study was con-ducted on 439 consecutive AMI patients admitted to our department from January 2018 to Decem-ber 2019.They were divided into ischemic stroke group(n=55)and non-ischemic stroke group(n=384)based on having concomitant ischemic stroke or not.For the 114 patients who completed head CT angiography,they were assigned into ischemic stroke patients(n=27)and non-ischemic stroke patients(n=87).The clinical characteristics and intracranial arterial lesions were analyzed in the patients.Total score of intracranial artery calcification was used to evaluate the level of in-tracranial artery calcification and the degree of atherosclerosis.Results The ischemic stroke group had significantly larger proportions of concomitant hypertension,diabetes and renal dysfunction,pre-admission usage of aspirin/clopidogrel and statin,higher levels of glycosylated hemoglobin(HbA1c)and B-type brain natriuretic peptide,more 3-vessel lesions and elevated Gensini score,but decreased hemoglobin level,platelet count and estimated glomerular filtration rate when com-pared with the non-ischemic stroke patients(P<0.05,P<0.01).The proportions of intracranial artery calcification,severe calcification,intracranial artery carotid calcification,and intracranial artery stenosis ≥50%were obviously higher in the ischemic stroke patients than the non-ische-mic stroke patients(92.6%vs 78.2%,P=0.041;40.7%vs 21.8%,P=0.037;81.5%vs 62.1%,P=0.039;55.6%vs 35.6%,P=0.042).Binary logistic regression analysis showed that diabetes was an independent risk factor for ischemic stroke in the elderly AMI patients(OR=2.187,95%CI:1.205-3.970,P=0.010).Conclusion The elderly AMI patients complicated with ischemic stroke have more comorbidities,and severer disease condition,coronary artery disease and in-tracranial artery disease.In addition,coexistence of diabetes significantly increases the risk of is-chemic stroke in elderly AMI patients.
