Abstract
INTRODUCTION: Stroke is the third leading cause of mortality, disability and dementia, but leading cause of epileptic manifestations in the elderly. Diabetes mellitus as permanently elevated blood glucose, often accompanied by dyslipidemia, is among the leading causes of atherosclerotic alteration in blood vessels and is also increasing in the world. GOAL: To determine the existence and predilection of diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia, in the development of ischemic stroke. MATERIAL AND METHODS: During the 2011 are analyzed all people with stroke admitted at the Neurology Clinic. All patients underwent neurological tests and the laboratory test with special emphasis on the value of blood glucose and lipid levels, with brain CT which confirmed the existence of a stroke, EEG and internist examination. RESULTS: During the one-year period the stroke was confirmed in 1184 patients, aged 33-81 years and 37% in the younger age group (up to 50 yrs.). There was 50.67% male and 49.33% female patients. Ischemic stroke was confirmed in 78.0% (56% with thrombotic and 22% with embolic genesis), of which the 32% was lacunar infarcts (up to 1.5 cm) and hemorrhagic in 22% (SAH in 4.8%, and intracerebral hemorrhage in 17.2%). The most frequent risk factors were hypertension 85%, then smoking in 65%, diabetes mellitus in 39.0%, in 27.38% dyslipidemia, previous stroke in 26.69%, in 23.57% arrhythmia In the baseline sample 30.06% of patients had previously diabetes mellitus and in 8.94% the diabetes was diagnosed during hospitalization, while dyslipidemia was known from earlier in 22.0% and in 5.38% cases was detected during the hospitalization. Among treated patients 79.01% survived, while 20.09% have a fatal outcome. CONCLUSIONS: Diabetes mellitus and dyslipidemia, along with hypertension and smoking are the leading risk factors for the occurrence of stroke. By timely detection and treatment can be controlled slow atherosclerotic changes in blood vessels and thus prevent stroke.
