Abstract
BACKGROUND: Abnormal hemorheologic index was often observed in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Although this alteration is not the main cause for the onset of cerebral infarction (CI), the changes of hemorrheology should not be ignored.OBJECTIVE: To study the hemorrheologic alterations of patients in different sexes with CI and transient ischemic attack (TIA), and investigate the significance of hemorrheologic index on the treatment of disease and the value of prognostic assessment.DESIGN: Non-randomized controlled and homochronous study based on patients and healthy people.SETTING: Medical physics institute in a university and a neurological department in a university hospital.PARTICIPANTS: Totally 91 CI patients, including 64 males and 27 females with the mean age of (64 ± 9), and 40 TIA patients, including 20 males and 20 females with the mean age of (58 ± 11 ), were selected from the Neurological Department of Qilu Hospital, Shandong University from January to December 2000. Another 84 healthy volunteers, including 52 males and 32 females with the mean age of (56 ± 10), were selected as the control group homochronously.METHODS: 2 mL fasting venous blood from elbow was taken in the morning and heparin was used against coagulation. Blood viscosity was assayed with NXE-1 cone-plate viscometer (made in Chengdu, China).MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: High blood viscosity, low blood viscosity,plasma viscosity, hematocrit, erythrocyte aggregation index and fibrinogen content of CI or TIA patients in different sexes and the controls.RESULTS: Each item of hemorrheologic index of male CI or TIA patients was significant higher than that of the controls, and the differences were significant (P ＜ 0.05 -0.01 ). Each item of hemorrheologic index of female CI patients was significant higher than that of the controls, and the differences were significant ( P ＜ 0.05 - 0.01). Blood viscosity, plasma viscosity and fibrinogen content of female TIA patients were significant differences from those of the controls ( P ＜ 0.05).CONCLUSION: The increase of hematocrit and fibrinogen content are the main factor causing the increase in blood viscosity.关键词
