Objective To explore the prognostic value of combined serum oxidized low-density lipoprotein(ox-LDL),remnant cholesterol(RC)and neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio(NLR)tests for clinical prognosis in patients with intracranial atherosclerotic stenosis(ICAS).Methods Patients with acute cerebral infarction were admitted to Cangzhou Central Hospital from June 2022 to December 2023 and diagnosed with ICAS by head MRI.A clinical diagnosis was selected(observation group,n=160).According to the modified Rankin scale(mRS)score,they were separated into a good prognosis group(mRS 0～2 points,n=52)and a poor prognosis group(mRS≥3 points,n=108).160 healthy volunteers who underwent physical examinations were used as a reference group.Magnetic particle immunochromatography was applied to detect serum ox-LDL levels.Clinical data of patients were collected,and the levels of RC and NLR were calculated.The Spearman method was used to analyze the correlation between serum ox-LDL,RC,NLR levels and mRS scores.Logistic regression was applied to analyze the factors influencing prognosis in ICAS patients.Receiver operating characteristic curve(ROC)was used to analyze the predictive value of serum ox-LDL,RC and NLR levels for the prognosis of ICAS patients.Results Compared with reference group,the serum levels of ox-LDL(53.65±8.35 U/L vs 33.23±6.42 U/L),RC(0.82±0.15 mmol/L vs 0.52±0.13 mmol/L)and NLR(2.84±0.38 vs 1.95±0.26)in observation group were obviously increased,and the differences were statistically significant(t=24.523,65.079,62.911,all P<0.05).The serum levels of ox-LDL(57.52±8.72 U/L),RC(0.84±0.14 mmol/L)and NLR(3.02±0.45)in the poor prognosis group were higher than those in the good prognosis group(45.62±6.63 U/L,0.79±0.12 mmol/L,2.48±0.36),and the differences were statistically significant(t=8.699,8.507,7.562,all P＜0.05),and there were differences in TC,LDL-C,HDL-C levels and mRS scores between the two groups,and the differences were statistically significant(t=15.755～27.072,all P<0.05).The serum levels of ox-LDL,RC,NLR were positively correlated with mRS scores(r=0.612,0.623,0.653,all P<0.05).The levels of TC,LDL-C,HDL-C,ox-LDL,RC and NLR were all factors that affected the prognosis of ICAS(all P<0.05).The AUC of serum ox-LDL,RC and NLR for predicting prognosis in ICAS patients were 0.894(0.835～0.937),0.860(0.797～0.910)and 0.817(0.748～0.874),respectively.The combined AUC(95%CI)of the three was 0.965(0.923～0.987),the combination of the three was more valuable than predicting serum ox-LDL,RC and NLR alone(Z=3.030,3.969,4.839,all P<0.05).Conclusion The serum levels of ox-LDL,RC and NLR in ICAS patients have all increased and are positively correlated with mRs scores.The three have predictive value for the prognosis of ICAS patients,and the combined detection of the three has higher clinical value.

Objective To investigate the changes of serum levels of soluble scavenger receptor 163 (sCD163),angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) before and after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute cerebral infarction (ACI) and their correlation with prognosis. Methods A total of 60 ACI patients accepted by Cangzhou Central Hospital from June 2021 to June 2022 were collected as the ACI group,and another 60 healthy individuals were regarded as the control group. According to the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score after admission,60 patients were divided into mild group (n=10),moderate group (n=38) and severe group (n=12).According to the scores on the modified Rankin scale 90 days after thrombolysis,patients were separated into a good prognosis group (n=42) and a poor prognosis group (n=18). The serum levels of sCD163 and ANGPTL3 were detected using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA),and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was applied to analyze the predictive value of serum sCD163 and ANGPTL3 levels for the prognosis of ACI patients after intravenous thrombolysis therapy. Results Compared with the control group,the levels of serum sCD163 (687.55±86.43 ng/ml vs 411.07±58.24 ng/ml) and ANGPTL3 (60.28±10.55 mg/L vs 25.34±5.93 mg/L) in ACI group were significantly increased,and the differences were significant (t=20.549,22.363,all P<0.05). The levels of serum sCD163 (551.65±69.66 ng/ml,668.92±81.12 ng/ml,859.79±117.24 ng/ml) and ANGPTL3 (44.52±8.12 mg/L,58.67±10.37 mg/L,75.34±13.12 mg/L) in mild,moderate and severe groups were gradually increased,and the differences were significant (F=36.011,23.007,all P<0.05). Compared with the good prognosis group,the proportion of time from onset to thrombolysis≥ 3 h,the proportion of NIHSS score>10 at admission,and the serum sCD163 and ANGPTL3 levels before and after thrombolysis were significantly increased in the poor prognosis group,and the differences were statistically significant (t/x2=5.644,4.775,8.982,10.866,10.293,9.702,all P<0.05). ROC results showed that the area under the curves(95％ confidence intervals)[AUC(95％CI)]of serum sCD163 and ANGPTL3 level alone in predicting the prognosis of ACI patients were 0.830 (0.711～0.915) and 0.783 (0.658～0.879),and their sensitivity and specificity were 72.22％ and 85.71％,77.78％ and 85.71％,respectively. The AUC(95％CI)of combined prediction of serum sCD163 and ANGPTL3 in predicting the prognosis of ACI patients[0.950(0.861～0.990)]was obviously greater than the AUC predicted by sCD163 and ANGPTL3 alone (Z=2.378,2.109,P=0.017,0.035). Conclusion sCD163 and ANGPTL3 levels are elevated in the serum of ACI patients,and are related to their severity and prognosis.
