Özet

Background: Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide with heterogeneous characteristics. The subtypes of stroke are due to different pathophysiological regulations and causes. This study aimed to investigate the correlation of serum levels of apolipoprotein B 48, interleukin-1 beta and Homocysteine with BMI in patients with ischemic stroke (IS). Methods: Over one hundred controls (120) and an equal number of IS patients, including 31 women and 89 men, were recruited to participate in the case-control study conducted at Imam Reza Hospital (Tabriz, Iran) from February 2019 to March 2020. We measured serum levels of apolipoprotein B 48, interleukin-1 beta, and Homocysteine. Receiver operating characteristic analysis (ROC) was performed to evaluate the diagnostic value of these indices in patients and control groups. Results: The mean serum levels of apolipoprotein B 48, interleukin-1 beta, and Homocysteine, were significantly increased in the experimental group compared to the control group with a p-value of 0.001. The ROC curve analysis showed that the area under the curve for apo B48, IL-1 beta, hs-CRP, and Homocysteine serum levels were 0.94, 0.98, 0.99, and 1, respectively. Conclusions: The results of our current study show that the determination of serum levels of apolipoprotein B 48, interleukin-1 beta, and Homocysteine can potentially be used to monitor and diagnose IS patients. However, there was no statistically significant correlation between serum levels of apolipoprotein B 48, interleukin 1 beta and Homocysteine and BMI in the patient group. However, there was a statistically significant inverse correlation between serum levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) and BMI in the patient group.
