Abstract:
Objective To evaluate correlation between premorbid hypertension control and the classification of ischemic stroke in patients with acute ischemic stroke and hypertension.
Methods Data of 681 hospitalized hypertension patients with types of large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) or small-vessel occlusion (SVO) stroke were analyzed retrospectively. Multivariate Logistic regression analysis was performed to analyze the relationship between premorbid hypertension control and LAA ischemic stroke.
Results The uncontrolled hypertension patients had higher possibility in LAA ischemic stroke before attack of stroke(OR=1.607, 95%CI, 1.102 to 2.343). The possibilities of LAA ischemic stroke were higher in overweight (OR=1.498, 95%CI, 1.066 to 2.105), diabetic (OR=1.803, 95%CI, 1.215 to 2.674), and male (OR=1.804, 95%CI, 1.190 to 2.733) patients.
Conclusion Standardized treatment and control of hypertension may reduce the incidence of type of LAA ischemic stroke.
