Soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density Lipoproteinreceptor-1 and recurrent stroke: A nested case-control study.

ABSTRACT:

Main problem

The prognostic value of soluble lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoproteinreceptor-1 (sLOX-1) for stroke was unclearly. This study aimed to investigate the association between sLOX-1 and recurrent stroke in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or transient ischemic attack (TIA).

Methods

Data were obtained from the Third China National Stroke Registry. Eligible cases consisted of 400 patients who developed recurrent stroke within 1-year follow-up, 800 controls were selected using age- and sex-matched with a 1:2 case-control ratio. Conditional logistic regressions were used to evaluate the association between sLOX-1 and recurrent stroke.

Results

Among 1200 patients included in this study, the median (interquartile range) of sLOX-1 was 247.12 (132.81-
