Abstract

This study was performed to evaluate the effect of C-reactive protein (CRP) measured within 24 hr after stroke onset on functional outcome in ischemic stroke patients. The medical records of 28 first-ever hemiplegic ischemic stroke patients with the lesions on the middle cerebral arterial territory were reviewed. Subjects were classified into experimental group (serum CRP >or= 0.5 mg/dL) and control group (serum CRP<0.5 mg/dL) based on the level of serum CRP measured within 24 hr after stroke onset. Serum CRP measured within 24 hr after stroke onset was significantly correlated with functional scales in ischemic stroke patients.

Acute Stroke

A stroke occurs when blood supply to the brain is interrupted depriving the brain of oxygen and nutrients. This feed focuses cerebrovascular accidents including ischemic and paralytic stroke.

Brain Ischemia

Brain ischemia is a condition in which there is insufficient blood flow to the brain to meet metabolic demand. Discover the latest research on brain ischemia here.
