Insights into Ischemia: Unravelling Stroke Patterns in Diabetics - A Comprehensive Analysis
Dr. Guna Sai Choudary Vejella, Dr. Madhuvan H. S.
Abstract: Stroke, characterized by focal neurological signs of vascular origin lasting over 24 hours and confirmed by brain imaging, remains a significant global health concern, being the second leading cause of mortality and third in causing disability. This study aims to analyze the pattern of strokes in diabetic patients and correlate it with their glycemic status. We included patients with new-onset stroke and HbA1c levels above 6.5, as well as known diabetics on medication regardless of HbA1c levels. Excluded were patients with old strokes, other focal deficits, or normal CT scans. Among the 30 patients studied, the mean ages for various stroke types ranged from 53.67 to 64.24 years, with a male-to-female ratio of 2:1. The majority 90 had ischemic strokes, with cortical infarct being the most common type. Notably, HbA1c levels were significantly higher in patients with ischemic strokes, highlighting the correlation between high HbA1c and ischemic stroke incidence in diabetics.
