Ischemic stroke is a stroke that is almost 25% caused by blockage of a blood clot, narrowing of an artery or some arteries that lead to the brain or embolus (feces) that is released from the heart or an estrhetic artery (an artery outside the skull) that causes a single or multiple arteries intracran (arteries inside the skull). The purpose of this study was to determine the risk factors for ischemic stroke in PT Departure II Bangkat Binjai Hospital. This type of research is descriptive with a cross sectional design. The population in this study were all ischemic stroke patients with a sample of 42 people. The results showed that the majority of patients aged 50-55 years as many as 15 people (36%), the majority of patients were male as many as 24 people (57%), the majority of patients had elementary education as many as 16 people (38%), the majority the work of patients is working as civil servants as many as 14 people (33%). Ischemic stroke due to hypertension as many as 32 people (76%), ischemic stroke due to smoking as many as 22 people (52%), ischemic stroke due to diabetes as many as 23 people (55%), ischemic stroke due to cholesterol as many as 21 people (50%). Ischemic stroke sufferers must know more about what is meant by prevention and treatment obtained from the medical team. It is expected that ischemic stroke patients will control things that affect or encourage ischemic stroke. It is expected that medical personnel can provide an explanation and counseling to ischemic stroke patients about ischemic stroke risk factors and their preventionKeywords: Risk Factors, Ischemic Stroke

Stroke Risk Factors

Background : Sleep disorder is common to be the complication in stroke patients and can be a risk factor for stroke. Sleep disorder in stroke patients decrease the quality of life. Objective : The purpose of this study was to find out the prevalence of sleep disorders in a post-ischemic stroke patient and the association between sleep disorders and stroke risk factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on post-ischemic stroke at the neurology outpatient clinic of Ibnu Sina Islamic Hospital Padang. Information about stroke risk factors is obtained through patient data and guided questionnaires. Types of sleep disorders were assessed through the 2005 Specialized Center of Research Sleep Questionnaire. Results: We found out there were 57 post-ischemic stroke patients, in which 37  post-ischemic stroke patients (64.9%) had sleep disorder incidences, such as apnea, restless legs syndrome, insomnia, and narcolepsy (38.6%, 36.8%, 35.1%, and 15.8%; respectively). There was an association between age and insomnia (p = 0.034,CI = 95%). On the other hand, there was no association between other risk factors (gender, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidemia, heart disease, obesity, smoking, and alcohol consumption) and insomnia, apnea, narcolepsy, and restless legs syndrome. Conclusions : The conclusion of this study was more than half post-ischemic stroke patients have sleep disorder with the most common were apnea. There was an association between age and insomnia.

Common Risk Factors

Background: Stroke is a disabling condition that has physical and mental impact on a patient’s life. Stroke is an important morbidity for low and middle income countries like Nepal. Hypertension, diabetes, smoking, and dyslipidemia are common risk factors in this regard and are inadequately controlled; mainly because of poor public awareness, inadequate infrastructure, lack of service and qualified manpower.Objectives: This study aims to provide insight into the epidemiology and risk factors in ischemic stroke patients.Methodology: A descriptive cross sectional study was conducted in 92 ischemic stroke patients at a tertiary care hospital Kathmandu Medical College and Teaching Hospital (KMCTH), Sinamangal, Nepal from December 2017 to June 2018. Consecutive sampling technique was used and data was collected from ischemic stroke patients above 14 years of age who were admitted in the Department of Neurology. Information regarding pre-morbid and morbid conditions, imaging findings as well as results was obtained from biochemical analysis of blood after taking consent from the patient or patient’s relative. Statistical Package for the Social Sciences Version 20 was used as a tool for statistical analysis.Results: Their mean age was 63.25 years with standard deviation of 16.45. Dyslipidemia was the most commonly found risk factor which was present in 77.2% of the subjects, followed by smoking (59.8%), presence of carotid artery atherosclerosis (59.8%), hypertension (50%), atrial fibrillation (26.1%) and diabetes mellitus(15.2%). Smoking was significant in males and heart disease was mostly seen in females.Conclusion: Dyslipidemia and smoking were the most common risk factors followed by carotid artery atherosclerosis. Patients with hypertension and dyslipidemia had higher incidence of stroke in both young and elderly group.

Abstract Background: Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is a major complication after stroke, oral microorganisms are important contributors to SAP. Here, we aimed to investigate whether the oral hygiene was associated with SAP and related risk factors of them in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study that recruited 331 patients with acute ischemic stroke from two medical centers. A series of assessments were performed to evaluate the neurological status and habits of oral hygiene. According to whether the oral hygiene was abnormal and SAP occurred, univariate analyses were performed in cohort 1 (normal / abnormal oral hygiene groups) and cohort 2 (SAP / non-SAP groups). Multiple logistic regression analyses were conducted to confirm risk factors of oral cleanliness and SAP in stroke patients. Results: A total of 12 and 8 independent variables were included in the model 1 and 2 analysis. After adjusting for confounders, multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that oral cleanliness was not only closely related to SAP (OR=2.219, P=0.026), dental caries (OR=1.292, P=0.005) and age (OR=1.030, P=0.006) in model 1, but also an independent risk factor for predicting SAP (OR=1.678, P=0.001) in model 2. Barthel index was a protective factor for oral cleanliness (OR=0.986, P=0.019) and SAP (OR=0.977, P=0.002) in ischemic stroke patients. Conclusions: Mutually primary risk roles of abnormal oral cleanliness and SAP exist in patients with acute ischemic stroke. Dental caries and aging are important risk factors for oral health disorders. Improving the activities of daily living would have protective effects on both oral hygiene and SAP prevention in stroke patients.

Purpose: In all types of ischemic stroke, especially in the acute phase, excessive oxidative stress causes structural and functional damage to the brain. This may play a major role in the pathophysiology of the brain damage. Higher serum levels of bilirubin have therapeutic effects in oxidative stress-induced stroke. Nevertheless, role of increased serum levels of bilirubin in the acute phase of ischemic stroke is controversial. Methods: This study was a cross-sectional prospective descriptive study conducted in the Emergency Department (ED) of Imam Reza hospital, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran, throughout six months. 275 ischemic stroke patients were evaluated based on their brain CT scan infarct size, NIHSS, MRS, and serum levels of bilirubin. Later, data were analyzed using SPSS software. Results: Total, direct and indirect bilirubin levels were significantly higher in expired patients (p< 0.0001). Total (p< 0.0001), direct (p< 0.0001) and indirect (p< 0.0001) bilirubin levels, NIHSS score (p< 0.0001), and ischemic area (p< 0.0001) significantly predicted the outcome in these patients. Conclusion: Total, direct and indirect bilirubin levels was significantly associated with mortality in the acute phase of ischemic stroke patients.

Background Recent studies reported increasing trends in hospitalization of stroke patients aged 35–64 years. Aim To examine changes in risk factor profiles among patients aged 35–64 years hospitalized with acute ischemic stroke between 2006 and 2017 in the United States. Methods We used data from the National Inpatient Sample of the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project from 2006 through 2017. Principal ICD-9-CM/ICD-10-CM codes were used to identify acute ischemic stroke hospitalizations, and secondary codes were used to identify the presence of four major stroke risk factors: hypertension, diabetes, lipid disorders, and tobacco use. We used the relative percent change to assess the changes in the prevalence of risk profile between 2006–2007 and 2016–2017 and linear regression models to obtain the p values for the overall trends across six time periods. Results Approximately 1.5 million acute ischemic stroke hospitalizations occurred during 2006–2017. The prevalence of having all four risk factors increased from 4.1% in 2006–2007 to 9.1% in 2016–2017 (relative percent change 122.0%, p < 0.001 for trend), prevalence of any three risk factors increased from 24.5% to 33.8% (relative percent change 38.0%, p < 0.001). Prevalence of only two risk factors decreased from 36.1% to 32.7% (p < 0.001), only one risk factor decreased from 25.2% to 18.1% (p < 0.001), and absence of risk factors decreased from 10.1% to 6.2% (p < 0.001). The most prevalent triad of risk factors was hypertension, diabetes, and lipid disorders (14.3% in 2006–2007 and 19.8% in 2016–2017), and the most common dyad risk factors was hypertension and lipid disorders (12.6% in 2006–2007 and 11.9% in 2016–2017). Conclusions The prevalence of hospitalized acute ischemic stroke patients aged 35–64 years with all four or any three of four major stroke risk factors increased by 122% and 38%, while those with only one risk factor or no risk factor has declined by 28% and 39%, respectively, from 2006 to 2017. Younger adults are increasingly at higher risk for stroke from preventable and treatable risk factors. This growing public health problem will require clinicians, healthcare systems, and public health efforts to implement more effective prevention strategies among this population.

Sensitive Marker

BACKGROUND: Inflammation affects the brain after stroke with main functions to rapidly eliminate the source of the disturbance, remove damaged tissue and then restore tissue homeostasis. High sensitive C-reactive protein (hsCRP) is a sensitive marker of inflammation and tissue injury in the arterial wall, while fractalkine is a distinct chemokine that promotes inflammatory signaling after neuronal death on ischemic stroke. We aim to investigate the association of fractalkine with hsCRP as a marker of inflammation in ischemic stroke patients.METHODS: This study was designed as a cross-sectional study. Soon after patients with ischemic stroke admitted to hospital, plasma fractalkine and hsCRP concentrations were assesed. Subjects had to be at least 30 years old and maximum 30 days of stroke onset. High inflammation was defined as hsCRP value >3 mg/L.RESULTS: High fractalkine levels were found on 24 ischemic stroke patients (49%) and mean of fractalkine 0.719 ng/mL on patients with stroke onset <7 days was higher than patients with stroke onset 7-30 days. Low fractalkine levels (<0.527 ng/mL) were found on ischemic stroke patients with onset 7-30 days accompanied by high inflammation (hsCRP >3 mg/L), but no significant correlation between fractalkine and hsCRP (p=0.613).CONCLUSION: High inflammation and low plasma fractalkine profile was found after 7 days of onset in ischemic stroke patients. No significant correlation between fractalkine and hsCRP in ischemic stroke patients.KEYWORDS: CRP, fractalkine, inflammation, ischemic stroke

 CORRELATION BETWEEN NEUTROFIL LIMPHOCYTE RATIO AND CEREBRAL INFARCTION VOLUME IN ACUTE ISCHAEMIC STROKEABSTRACTIntroduction: Inflammation plays a key role in stroke pathophysiology. Neutrophils is one of the earliest leucocyte subtypes to infiltrate the ischemia area of the brain. The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is independent of the severity of coronary heart disease and as a predictor of poor clinical outcomes in patients with coronary heart disease undergoing angiography. The neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio values may be a prognostic factor in ischemic stroke patients. The neutrophil- lymphocyte ratio values can also be used in predicting infarct size, however limited study has been conducted in this area.Aim: To determine the correlation of NLR with cerebral infarct volume in acute ischemic stroke patients.Method: This was an analytical observational study with cross sectional design. The population for this study were acute ischemic stroke patients at NTB Genereal Hospital. The collected data were analyzed by Spearman correlation test.Results: Approximately 52 participants  were enrolled in this study with mean age was 59.79±8.65 years old. Hypertension was a common modifiable risk factor identified in more than 94.2 % participant. The mean of neutrophil lymphocyte ratio was 3.94±2.96 and mean of infarct volume was 13.96±37.26cm3. There was correlation between RNL and cerebral infract volume (r=+0.351; p=0.023).Discussions: Higher lymphocyte neutrophil ratio in acute ischemic stroke patients would result in an increase of brain infarct volume.Keyword: Infarct volume, ischaemic stroke, neutrophil lymphocyte ratioABSTRAKPendahuluan: Inflamasi memegang peranan penting dalam patofisiologi stroke. Salah satu subtipe dari sel leukosit yang paling awal menginfiltrasi ke area iskemia di otak adalah neutrofil. Rasio neutrofil limfosit (RNL) merupakan faktor independen terhadap beratnya penyakit jantung koroner dan sebagai prediktor luaran klinis yang buruk pada penderita penyakit jantung koroner yang menjalani angiografi. Nilai RNL dapat menjadi faktor prognostik pada penderita stroke iskemik. Nilai RNL juga bisa digunakan dalam memprediksi ukuran infark namun belum dilakukan penelitian hingga saat ini.Tujuan: Mengetahui korelasi RNL dengan volume infark serebri pada penderita stroke iskemik akut.Metode: Penelitian analitik observasional dengan desain potong lintang terhadap pasien stroke iskemik akut di RSUP NTB. Data yang terkumpul dianalisis dengan uji korelasi Spearman.Hasil: Didapatkan 52 subjek dengan rerata umur 59,79±8,65 tahun dan faktor risiko utama hipertensi (94,2%). Didapatkan rerata rasio neutrofil limfosit 3,94±2,96 dan rerata volume infark 13,96±37,26cm3. Terdapat korelasi antara RNL dengan volume infark serebri (r=+0,351; p=0,023).Diskusi: Semakin tinggi nilai rasio neutrofil limfosit mengakibatkan semakin luasnya volume infark serebri pada penderita stroke iskemik akut.Kata kunci: Rasio neutrofil limfosit, stroke iskemik, volume infark
