Observational Study
The relationship between oxidized low-density lipoprotein and related ratio and acute cerebral infarction.
Medicine (Baltimore) 2018 September
This study aimed to study the value of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OX-LDL) and related ratio in the diagnosis of acute cerebral infarction and the classification of acute cerebral infarction.Of the 129 patients enrolled in this study, 94 patients with acute cerebral infarction were assigned to the case group, and 35 healthy subjects were enrolled as control group (n = 35). And then the case group were divided into large-artery atherosclerosis (LAA) group (n = 61) and small-artery occlusion (SAO) group (n = 33) according to the TOAST classification standard. Plasma OX-LDL levels were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. OX-LDL/total cholesterol (OX-LDL/TC), OX-LDL/high-density lipoprotein (OX-LDL/HDL), OX-LDL/LDL were calculated.There were significant differences in OX-LDL, OX-LDL/TC, OX-LDL/HDL, and OX-LDL/LDL in patients with acute cerebral infarction and those in control group (P < .001). The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curve of OX-LDL and related ratio was >0.7 (P < .001). There was a slight positive correlation between OX-LDL/TC and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale score at admission (r = 0.265, P = .039) in the LAA group.OX-LDL, OX-LDL/TC, OX-LDL/HDL, and OX-LDL/LDL were closely related to acute cerebral infarction, especially with large atherosclerotic cerebral infarction. OX-LDL/TC can reflect the severity of acute cerebral infarction for LAA, but it cannot predict the short-term prognosis of acute cerebral infarction.
