Abstract:Objective To study the relationship between thyroid hormone and acute stroke event by analysis of the variety of thyroid hormone in acute stoke patients. Methods A total of 164 acute stroke patients who were first-ever stroke and within 7 days after symptom onset from June 2015 to June 2016 were selected as observation group, and 180 healthy cases were selected as control group. General conditions and previous history were collected. T3, T4, FT3, FT4, TSH, TC, TG, LDL, HDL, blood sugar, FIB and homocysteine (Hcy) in the blood were tested. Results FT4 was lower in the observation group than in the control group [(15.41 ±2.83) vs (16.78 ±3.74),p < 0.05]; FT3, T3, T4 and TSH had no differences between the two groups (p > 0.05). Compared with the heathy control group, the FIB, blood glucose, TC, LDL, ApoB and Hcy were higher in the acute stroke group (p < 0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in HDL, ApoA or TG between the two groups (p > 0.05). Logistic regression analysis showed that the increase of FT4 reduced the risk of stroke by 81.9%(1/OR), high blood glucose and high Hcy increased the risk of stroke by 2.94 and 1.07 times (1/OR) respectivly. Conclusions The study showed that lower FT4 in the blood may increase the risk of stroke.
