Plasma Homocysteine and cerebral infarction.doc

 PAGE \* MERGEFORMAT 7 Plasma Homocysteine and cerebral infarction [Abstract] Objective To study the cerebral infarction and plasma homocysteine levels. Methods biochemical analyzer using enzymatic measurement of 22 cases of cerebral circulation in patients and 12 healthy control group, plasma homocysteine levels. Results cerebral infarction plasma homocysteine (28.05 + -19.67) mol / L, healthy control group of plasma homocysteine (15.33 + -7.32) mol / L, the difference was statistically significant (P lt;0.05). Conclusion of the same type of plasma cysteine closely related to higher acid and cerebral infarction, cerebral infarction is an important factor. [Keywords:] Cerebral infarction; homocysteine Cerebral Infarction (Cerebral infarction, CI) is harmful to human health, one of the most serious diseases, with a high incidence of high morbidity and mortality characteristics of high and high recurrence rate [1]. Artery caused by cerebral infarction is mainly due to atherosclerosis, Atherosclerosis With further research, found that in addition lipid metabolism, the protein is also involved in metabolism of atherosclerosis formation, in which methionine metabolic intermediate homocysteine (Homocysteine, HCY) concentration, can lead to occurrence of atherosclerosis [2]. Therefore, this study was to observe the relationship between HCY and cerebral infarction, cerebral infarction in order to provide new ideas for prevention and treatment. 1 Materials and Methods 1.1 General Information Select hospital from January to December 2009, Department of Neurology, 22 cases of hospitalized patients with cerebral infarction (12 males and 10 females), aged 52 to 81 years (mean 67.64 + -9.66) years, all cases are in line with 1995 In the Fourth National Conference on cerebrovascular arteriosclerotic encephalopathy developed diagnostic criteria, and for the first time the disease, and by brain CT or MRI examination confirmed. one of the following conditions were
