The lacunar syndromes were pure motor hemiparesis (10), pure sensory syndrome (2), ataxic hemiparesis (3), dysarthria clumsy hand syndrome (3), and sensory- motor deficit (5). Nineteen out of the 23 patients presented with completed strokes on arrival to the hospital, and 4 (17%) developed evolving-stroke within 24 hours of stroke onset. A lacune corresponded to the acute stroke could be found in all patients on brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and in 18 (78%) on brain computed tomography (CT). MRI showed additional subclinical or asymptomatic “silent brain infarctions or lacunes” (SBI) in 19 (83%) of 23 patients, and leuko-araiosis (LA) of moderate to severe degree (> grade 2) was present in 61% of patients although dementia was absent. Hypertension is the risk factor in 78% of cases followed by diabetes mellitus, smoking, and elevated plasma cholesterol level. Independence of the types of lacunar syndromes, patients with hypertension and diabetes mellitus are associated with high grade LA. None with normal blood pressure and plasma glucose had grade 3 or grade 4 LA (p < 0.05). In conclusion, evolving-stroke occurs in one- fifth of patients with “first-ever” lacunar infarct within the first 24 hours of stroke onset. SBI was found in 83% of cases. Hypertension and diabetes mellitus are associated with additional SBI and high grade LA. The severity of leuko-araiosis per se dictates the cerebrovascular risks.展开更多

Cerebral infarction models were established by using left middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and were randomly divided into a model group (n=40) and a TMS group (n=40). TMS treatment (2 times per day, 30 pulses per time) with a frequency of 0.5 Hz and magnetic field intensity of 1.33 Tesla was carried out in TMS group after MCAO. Modified neurological severity score (NSS) were recorded before and 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 day(s) after MCAO. The expression of c-Fos and BDNF was immunohistochemically detected 1, 7, 14, 21, and 28 day(s) after infarction respectively. Our results showed that a significant recovery of NSS (P〈0.05) was found in animals treated by TMS on day 7, 14, 21, and 28 as compared with the animals in the model group. The positive expression of c-Fos and BDNF was detected in the cortex surrounding the infarction areas, while the expression of c-Fos and BDNF increased significantly in TMS treatment group in comparison with those in model group 7, 14, 21, and 28 days (P〈0.05) and 7 14, 21 days (P〈0.01) after infarction, respectively. It is concluded that TMS has therapeutic effect on cerebral infarction and this may have something to do with TMS's ability to promote the expression of c-Fos and BDNF of the cerebral cortex in rats with cerebral infarction.展开更多

文摘目的探讨血清IL-11在急性脑梗死诊断和预后评估中的价值及其与血清脑源性神经营养因子(BDNF)的相关性。方法收集102例急性脑梗死患者(脑梗死组)和64名正常对照者(正常对照组)的一般临床资料。根据90 d mRS评分将脑梗死组分为预后良好亚组和预后不良亚组。采用Pearson相关性分析血清IL-11和NIHSS评分、脑梗死体积、血清BDNF的相关性,Logistics回归分析脑梗死预后的影响因素,并绘制IL-11在脑梗死诊断和预后预测中的ROC曲线。结果脑梗死组高血压比率及糖化血红蛋白、低密度脂蛋白水平显著高于正常对照组(均P<0.05)。预后不良亚组的年龄、糖尿病比率、糖化血红蛋白水平、入院时NIHSS评分、脑梗死体积显著高于预后良好亚组(均P<0.05)。脑梗死组血清IL-11水平显著低于正常对照组(t=10.123,P<0.001)。脑梗死预后不良亚组血清IL-11水平显著低于预后良好亚组(t=7.438,P<0.001)。脑梗死患者血清IL-11表达与NIHSS评分(r=-0.603,P<0.001)及脑梗死体积(r=-0.681,P<0.001)呈负相关关系。Logistics回归分析显示,IL-11为影响脑梗死患者预后的保护性因素(OR=0.814,P=0.009),脑梗死体积(OR=2.262,P<0.001)和NIHSS评分(OR=2.107,P=0.006)为影响脑梗死预后的危险因素。当IL-11应用于脑梗死的诊断时,ROC曲线下面积为0.841,灵敏性为91.18%,特异性为72.42%,截断值为378.47;当IL-11应用于脑梗死预后预测时,ROC曲线下面积为0.786,灵敏性为67.09%,特异性为87.93%,截断值为310.94。脑梗死患者血清IL-11水平与血清BDNF水平的相关系数为r=0.711、P<0.01。结论脑梗死患者血清IL-11水平显著降低,且预后不良患者的IL-11水平显著低于预后良好亚组。同时,IL-11水平与血清BDNF水平呈负相关,可能可以用于脑梗死的辅助诊断和预后评估。
