Patients were divided into group A(without HT) and group B(HT). The outcomes were assessed after 3 months of disease onset using the modified Rankin Scale(m RS). An m RS score of 0–2 points indicated excellent prognosis, and an m RS score of 3–6 points indicated poor prognosis.Results: A total of 732 patients conformed to the inclusion criteria, including 628 in group A and 104 in group B. The incidence of HT was 14.2%, and the median onset time was 2 d(interquartile range, 1–7 d). The percentages of patients with large infarct size and cortex involvement in group B were 80.8% and 79.8%, respectively, which were both significantly higher than those in group A(28.7 and 33.4%, respectively). The incidence rate of atrial fibrillation(AF) in group B was significantly higher than that in group A(39.4% vs. 13.9%, P<0.001). The adjusted multivariate analysis results showed that large infarct size, cortex involvement and AF were independent risk factors of HT, while total cholesterol(TC) was a protective factor of HT(OR=0.359, 95% CI 0.136–0.944, P=0.038). With every 1 mmol/L reduction in normal TC levels, the risk of HT increased by 64.1%. The mortality and morbidity at 3 months in group B(21.2% and 76.7%, respectively) were both significantly higher than those in group A(8.0% and 42.8%, respectively). The adjusted multivariate analysis results showed that large infarct size(OR=12.178, 95% CI 5.390–27.516, P<0.001) was an independent risk factor of long-term unfavorable outcomes, whereas low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) was a protective factor(OR=0.538, 95% CI 0.300–0.964, P=0.037). With every 1 mmol/L reduction in normal LDL-C levels, the risk of an unfavorable outcome increased by 46.2%. Major therapies, including intravenous recombinant human tissue plasminogen activator(r TPA), intensive lipid-lowering statins and anti-platelets, were not significantly related to either HT or long-term, post-ACI poor prognosis.Conclusions: For patients with large infarct sizes, especially those with cortex involvement, AF, or lower levels of TC, the risk of HT might increase after ACI. The risk of a long-term unfavorable outcome in these patients might increase with a reduction in LDL-C.展开更多

And they were divided into bleeding group 48 cases and hemorrhage transformation group 48 cases according to whether with hemorrhage occurs transformation. Then the lipid metabolism, atrial fibrillation, history of smoking and drinking, history of hypertension and diabetes, blood pressure, treatment time after onset and infarction area of two groups were compared, and the relationship between those factors and the disease were analyzed by the multi-factor Logistic regression analysis.Results: The atrial fibrillation, history of smoking and drinking of two groups had significant differences;The hospital fasting plasma glucose and LDL-C level of two groups had significant differences;the treatment time after onset and infarction area of two groups had significant differences;The multi-factor Logistic regression analysis showed that atrial fibrillation, blood glucose on admission, LDL-C and large area of infarction are the factors affecting the risk of bleeding in patients with acute cerebral infarction transformation.Conclusion:Atrial fibrillation, blood glucose on admission, LDL-C, treatment time after onset and large area of infarction belongs to the patients with acute cerebral infarction after the thrombolysis transformation of bleeding risk factors.展开更多
