To investigate insulin resistance (IR) prevalence among non-diabetic patients with acute ischemic stroke and the association between IR, insulin sensitivity (IS) and β-cell function and the risk of Early Neurologic Deterioration(END) in non-diabetic patients with ischemic stroke.
This is a retrospective analysis of non-diabetic patients with acute ischemic stroke enrolled in the prospective multicenter ACROSS-China study. The homeostasis model assessment 2 (HOMA2-IR) was evaluated and the patients were divided into HOMA2-IR quartiles (Q1 0-1.24, Q2 1.25-1.95, Q3 1.96-2.96, Q4 ≥ 2.97). END was defined as an increment in total National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) of ≥ 2 points or ≥ 4 points on day 14 ± 3 after stroke onset. Logistic regression was performed to explore the relationship between HOMA2-IR and END.
This study strongly suggests that IR is probably an independent risk factor for END in non-diabetic patients with acute ischemic stroke
Finally, 556 patients were included (63.7 ± 12.9 years, 64.6% male); thirty-three patients developed END. The median HOMA2-IR of all patients was 1.95 (inter-quartile = 1.24-2.96). There were 148, 135, 130, and 143 patients in Q1, Q2, Q3, and Q4, respectively. Compared with Q1, END (NIHSS ≥ 2) risk was increased in Q4: adjusted odds ratio (OR) = 6.051, 95% CI = 1.638-22.354, P = 0.0069. In additon, END (NIHSS ≥ 2) risk was increased in Q4 compared with the Q1-Q3 combined group: adjusted OR = 2.853, 95% CI = 1.308-6.224, P = 0.0084. END (NIHSS ≥ 4) risk was also increased in Q4: adjusted OR = 7.507, 95% CI = 2.357-23.906, P = 0.0006) compared with the Q1-Q3 combined group.
