Differential impacts of admission LDL-cholesterol on early vascular outcomes by ischemic stroke subtypes.
Journal of clinical lipidology(2023)
摘要
BACKGROUND:Because ischemic stroke is heterogeneous, the associations between LDL-cholesterol levels and early vascular outcomes might be different according to the stroke subtype in acute ischemic stroke patients.
METHODS:This study was an analysis of a prospective, multicenter, stroke registry. Acute ischemic stroke patients previously not treated with statins were included. Admission LDL-cholesterol levels were divided into 7 groups at 20 mg/dl intervals for comparison. The primary early vascular outcome was a composite of stroke, myocardial infarction (MI) and all-cause mortality within 3 months.
RESULTS:A total of 38531 patients (age, 68.5 ± 12.8 yrs; male, 59.6%) were analyzed for this study. The 3-month cumulative incidences of the composite of stroke, MI, and all-cause mortality significantly differed among the LDL-cholesterol level groups, with the highest event rate (11.11%) in the lowest LDL-cholesterol group (<70 mg/dl). After adjustment, the U-shaped associations of LDL-cholesterol levels with primary outcome and all-cause mortality were observed. For the stroke subtypes, there were substantial interactions between the LDL-cholesterol groups and stroke subtype and all-cause mortality (Pinteraction=0.07). Different patterns, with higher risks of all-cause mortality in the lower LDL-cholesterol in the LAA subtype (aHR 1.29 [0.98-1.69]), but in the higher LDL-cholesterol in the CE subtype (aHR 1.71 [1.28-2.29]), were observed among stroke subtypes.
CONCLUSION:We found that there were differential associations of admission LDL-cholesterol levels with all-cause mortality within 3 months among stroke subtypes. These results suggest that admission LDL-cholesterol and early vascular outcomes had complex relationships in patients with ischemic stroke according to the stroke subtypes.
