Risk factors for cognitive impairment in patients with first-time ischemic stroke

CONCLUSION: The study showed a high CI incidence in patients with preexisting ischemic stroke. Age ≥60 years old, history of diabetes mellitus, CRP >6.53 mg/L, Hcy >13.84 μmol/L, NIHSS score >4.37 score, VD <45.16 nmol/L are independent risk factors for CI in patients with first-time ischemic stroke.PMID:33841715 | PMC:PMC8014415
