ABSTRACT

BACKGROUND:

Carotid artery dissection is an important cause of stroke. However, the predictors of ischemic stroke in patients with carotid artery dissection are controversial. The study aimed to analyze the predictors of ischemic stroke in patients with carotid artery dissection through retrospective medical records.

METHODS:

Data of discharged patients diagnosed with carotid artery dissection during 2019-2023 were retrospectively collected. Based on the occurrence of ischemic stroke, the patients were divided into the ischemic stroke or non-ischemic stroke groups. Based on the results of univariate analyses, variables with an associated P value < 0.05 were introduced into the multivariable logistic regression analysis. .

RESULTS:

A total of 165 patients were included in the study, with an average age of 55.00 (48.00, 66.00) years, including 86 patients with internal carotid artery dissection and 79 patients with vertebral artery dissection. Ischemic stroke occurred in 69 patients with carotid artery dissection. Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that diabetes (odds ratio [OR] 3.144, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.552-6.508, P<0.002) and high white blood cells count (OR 1.157, 95% CI 1.02-1.327,P = 0.028) were related to the incidence of ischemic stroke in patients with carotid artery dissection.

CONCLUSION:

Ischemic stroke caused by carotid artery dissection causes severe damage to the nervous system. This study found that diabetes and high white blood cells count were associated with the incidence of ischemic stroke in patients with carotid artery dissection. Therefore, monitoring and controlling blood glucose levels and infections is essential in patients with carotid artery dissection to reduce the incidence of stroke.
