Abstract
Aim: To explore the relation between hypertension, diabetes and unstable plaques of carotid atherosclerosis in ischemic cerebrovascular patients.Methods: A toal of 112 cases of ischemic cerebrovascular were divided into 2 groups according to their carotid ultrasomic examination: stable carotid atherosclerosis group and unstable plaque group. The proportion of hypertension, diabetes histories,and pulse pressure was compared between the two groups.Results: There were significant differences in the proportions of hypertension, diabetes historys,and pulse pressure between the 2 groups. Conclusion: There is a closed relationship between these risk factors including hypertension,diabetes, pulse pressure,and unstable plaques of carotid atherosclerosis in ischemic cerebrovascular diseases.
