Serum was collected to determine the contents of PAF, inflammatory response indexes and lipid metabolism indexes.Results:Serum PAF, HMGB1, FKN, CD40L, IL-18, HCY, DKK1, LDL-C, Vaspin and Resistin levels of cerebral infarction group were greatly higher than those of control group whereas Visfatin level was greatly lower than that of control group;serum HMGB1, FKN, CD40L, IL-18, HCY, DKK1, LDL-C, Vaspin and Resistin levels of cerebral infarction group of patients with high PAF level were greatly higher than those of patients with low PAF level whereas Visfatin level was greatly lower than that of patients with low PAF level.Conclusion: The increase of PAF content in serum of patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction is closely related to the inflammatory response activation and lipid metabolism disorder.展开更多

Methods: A total of 148 patients who were treated in Maanshan Shiqiye Hospital between June 2014 and February 2017 due to vertebrobasilar artery stenosis were selected as the research subjects and divided into cerebral infarction group and transient ischemic attack (TIA) group according to the imageological examination. CTA was used to evaluate vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic plaque properties, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay kit was used to determine the levels of nerve injury markers, inflammatory response-related molecules and plaque property-related protease molecules. Results: The positive rate of posterior circulation plaque in cerebral infarction group was obviously higher than that in TIA group, and the positive rate of unstable plaque, fibrous plaque and calcified plaque were higher than those in TIA group;serum NSE, S100B, UCH-L1, GFAP, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, PECAM-1, VE-cadherin, YKL-40, CatS, MMP9, MMP10 and ADAMTS12 levels of cerebral infarction group of patients with unstable plaque, fibrous plaque and calcified plaque were all higher than those of TIA group;serum NSE, S100B, UCH-L1, GFAP, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, PECAM-1, VE-cadherin, YKL-40, CatS, MMP9, MMP10 and ADAMTS12 levels of cerebral infarction group of patients with unstable plaque and fibrous plaque were all higher than those of patients with calcified plaque, and serum NSE, S100B, UCH-L1, GFAP, ICAM-1, VCAM-1, PECAM-1, VE-cadherin, YKL-40, CatS, MMP9, MMP10 and ADAMTS12 levels of cerebral infarction group of patients with unstable plaque were all higher than those of patients with fibrous plaque. Conclusion: CTA can accurately assess the property of vertebrobasilar atherosclerotic plaque in patients with posterior circulation cerebral infarction and is closely related to the degree of nerve injury and the change of plaque property.展开更多
