Özet |
Monocyte to high-density lipoprotein cholesterol ratio (MHR) has recently emerged as a predictor of cardio-cerebrovascular diseases. Since around one-fifth of strokes are linked to atherosclerosis carotid artery, we aimed to present the relationship between carotid artery disease (CAD) and MHR value in acute ischemic stroke (AIS). A total of 209 adult AIS patients analyzed. Patients divided into two groups in respect to the existence of CAD. MHR was compared between the two groups. MHR with a cut off of 17.23 predicted the presence of disease in the carotid artery, with a sensitivity of 91.9% and specificity of 66.7. MHR was the independent predictor for the presence of disease in the carotid artery. MHR was found to be an independent predictor for the CAD in AIS. Therefore, in AIS patients with high MHR value, CAD should be examined more carefully. |
