Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 8
Abstract
Abstract:The aim was to study the association between lipid profile and acute ischemic stroke. 60 patients of acute ischemic stroke were included in the study. The blood samples were taken and CT/MRI brain as appropriate was done on admission. Out of 60 patients 43 were males and 17 were females. In the study group 81.7% of patients had abnormal lipid profile. This study shows that abnormal lipid profile is strongly associated with risk for developing acute ischemic stroke and proper measures taken to modify it can lead to better prognosis as it is a modifiable risk factor.
