Serum lipid profiling reveals characteristic lipid signatures associated with stroke in patients with leukoaraiosis.

ABSTRACT: Many lipid biomarkers of stroke have been identified, but the lipid metabolism in elderly patients with leukoaraiosis remains poorly understood. This study aims to explore lipid metabolic processes in stroke among leukoaraiosis patients, which could provide valuable insights for guiding future antithrombotic therapy. In a cohort of 215 individuals undergoing MRI, 13 stroke patients were matched with controls, and 48 stroke patients with leukoaraiosis were matched with 40 leukoaraiosis patients. Serum lipidomics was profiled using UPLC-TOF, and OPLS-DA was applied for metabolite identification. Partial Least Squares Path Model (PLS-PM) assessed pathway weights of novel metabolites in stroke risk, while linear regression explored correlations with clinical outcomes.
