2018 Re se arch comple te d at: 108 INSTITUTE O F C LINICAL MEDICAL AND PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENC ES Scientific Supervisors: Prof P hD Le Quang Cuong Prof P hD Hoang Van T huan Reviewer 1: Reviewer 2: Reviewer 3: T he doctoral thesis will be defended at the Public Defence At on A t hesis can be found at: Nat ional Library of Vietnam Library of 108 Milit ary Central Hospit al BAC KGRO UND Brain stroke, a fat al and disabling disease which is common among elderly and is an developmental problem Each year there are about 15 million people suffer from stroke, of which million die and ot her million are disabled Ischemic stroke takes about 80-85% of stroke Ischemic stroke (IS) occurs when blood supply to part of the brain are blocked, causing necrosis of the respect ive brain t issue T here are lot s of fact or that lead t o ischemic stroke and diabetes is one of the most common In 2015, there are about 415 million people with diabetes worldwide, 90% of which are type diabetes, and the rat e of diabetes among people aged 60-79 is 25.9% Diabetes increases the risk of atherosclerosis by 2-3 times and doubles the risk of stroke compared with normal people The rate of ischemic stroke in pat ients with diabetes is about 25-40% Patients with diabetes also experience co-occurring risk factors such as atheroma, hyperlipidaemia, hypert ension, which t ogether cause early, severe ischemic stroke and slower recovery In Vietnam, there hasn’t been any study on ischemic stroke that specified in elderly with diabetes Hence our research: “Stu dy on clinical and paraclinical characteristics of ischemic stroke in th e elderly wi th diabete s” T here are two object ive: Research on neurological characteristics, m etabolic syndrom es and magnetic resonance imaging of ischem ic stroke in the elderly with diabetes Consider the association between diabetes and cerebral infarction in the elderly NEW MAIN CO NTRIBUTIO N O F THE THESIS - T his is a prospect ive, descriptive, controlled study which systematized clinical, biochemical and imaging characteristic of ischemic stroke in elderly with diabetes T he results are described in detail, and are compared with patients with non-diabetic ischemic stroke - T he study utilized analytical algorit hms to assess the role of diabetes and related parameters such as blood glucose, HbA1c, NIHSS score, Glasgow scale upon hospit al admission and met abolic syndrome t o t he outcome of ischemic stroke in the elderly O VERALL LAYO UT T his thesis consist of 130 pages including: Background (2 pages), Chapter 1: Lit erature review (35 pages), Chapter 2: Subject s and methods (19 pages), Chapter 3: Results (30 pages) Chapter 4: Discussion (41 pages), Conclusions (2 pages), Recommendations (1 page) T his thesis also consist of 42 tables, 10 graphs, diagram, images, 172 references including 43s in Vietnamese, 129s in English and related art icles *Acronyms: IS-ischemic stroke CHAPTER 1: LITERATURE REVIEW 1.1 Abou t ische mic stroke 1.1.1 De fi niti on and cl assifi cati on of ische mic stroke T he occurrence of IS is the consequence of a sudden decline in cerebral circulation due t o part ial or total cerebral art ery occlusion Clinical manifestations of IS are sudden appearances of focal neurologic signs 1.1.2 Cause s of ische mic stroke According to T OAST ischemic stroke causes can be categorized int o five major group: major vascular disorders, cardiac disorders, small vessel disorders, other causes and unknown causes 1.1.3 Clinical manife stati ons Sudden onset of focal neurologic sign depends on t he size and location of the injured art ery, including hemiparesis, sensory disorders, speech disorders, facial paralysis, convulsions, disorders of consciousness In addition, clinical severity was assessed using t he NIHSS scale, with sequelae assessed using a modified Rankin scale 1.1.4 Imaging diagnosis tools - MRI is a method with high sensitivit y, surpass computerized tomography in t he diagnosis of IS - Other tests also play roles in the diagnosis of IS, such as Doppler ultrasound of ext ernal carotid artery, elect rocardiography, biochemistry t est etc 2.1 Ische mic stroke in e lderly wi th diabete s 2.1.1 Abou t diabete s - Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder, with genetic fact ors T he disease is characterized by increased blood glucose T he main cause is absolute or relative insulin deficiency which in t urn leads t o impaired glucose, protein, lipid and minerals met abolism T here are four main types of diabetes: type diabetes, type diabetes and gestational diabetes and other specific t ypes of diabetes - Insulin resistance is a decrease in the biological response to insulin, usually expressed by an increase in insulin levels in the blood Insulin resistance is considered to be one of the primary defect s leading to the onset of type diabetes Insulin resistance is a central factor in metabolic syndrome Met abolic syndrome has six major components: abdominal obesity, atherogenic dyslipidaemia, hypert ension, insulin resistance, proinflammatorystates , - Vascular complication in patient with diabetes Cardiovascular diseases, especially atherosclerosis, are major causes of disability and deat h in people with diabetes It significantly increases the risk of progressive coronary artery disease, cerebrovascular disease and other peripheral arterial diseases 2.1.2 Nati onal and inte rnati onal re se arch e s re late to the sis -Diabetes is one of the leading independent risk factors of IS The risk of stroke in people with diabetes is two t imes higher than that of ordinary people - Age, previous strokes, atrial fibrillation, art erial hypert ension, smoking, dyslipidaemia, hyperglycaemia, durat ion of diabetes are risk fact ors of IS - T he rat e of acute onset of IS, lacunar stroke and stroke due t o cerebrovascular disease was higher in the diabetic group than t hat of the non-diabetic group T he incidence of hippocampal stroke and posterior cerebral art ery stroke is also higher in the diabetic group - T he rat e of first-trimester disability (on t he Rankin and Bart hel scale) of stroke patient was higher in diabetic group than that of nondiabetic group - HbA1c were not associat ed with outcomes of ischemic stroke CHAPTER 2: SUBJECTS AND RESEARC H METHO DS 2.1 Locati on and durati on of th e re se arch -
