Abstract
Progressive ischemic stroke is a common cerebrovascular disease with high morbidity. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between changes of Thromboxane B2 (TXB2), 6-keto-prostaglandin Fla (6-k-PGFla), and blood glucose (BG) levels with progressive ischemic stroke. A total of 106 patients with progressive ischemic stroke admitted to our hospital from December 2016 to December 2018 were recruited as the observation group, and 110 patients who received physical examination in our hospital during the same period were selected as the control group. The levels of TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, and BG in different groups were compared, the related risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with progressive ischemic stroke were analyzed, and the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was drawn to evaluate the predictive value of TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, and BG for the prognostic mortality of patients with progressive ischemic stroke. The levels of TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, and BG in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P<0.05). The prognostic mortality of participants with abnormally increased expression of TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, and BG was significantly higher than that of patients with normal expression of TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, and BG (P<0.05). Hypertension, diabetes, collateral circulatory disorders, hyperlipidemia, TXB2 (abnormal increase), 6-k-PGFla (abnormal increase), and BG (abnormal increase) were risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with progressive ischemic stroke (P<0.05). The area under the curve (AUC) of the ROC curve showed that TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, BG, and the combination of them were 0.846, 0.893, 0.835, and 0.971, respectively, showing that the AUC of the combination of them was the largest. Hypertension, diabetes, collateral circulatory disorders, hyperlipidemia, TXB2 (abnormal increase), 6-k-PGFla (abnormal increase), and BG (abnormal increase) are risk factors affecting the prognosis of patients with progressive ischemic stroke. The combined detection of the 3 indicators showed high sensitivity and specificity in evaluating the prognostic mortality of patients with progressive ischemic stroke, indicating that clinicians might improve the early diagnosis rate of progressive ischemic stroke by combining the detection of TXB2, 6-k-PGFla, and BG to predict the prognosis of patients.
