Correlation Between the Changes of Retinal Structure and Function and Ischemic Stroke

August 8, 2022 updated by: Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital
Ischemic stroke is the most common type of stroke, accounting for 60%-80% of all types of strokes, and is one of the leading global causes of death and severe disability. In the risk factors of stroke, carotid atherosclerosis have higher incidence.As the only visible microvessels in vivo, retinal can provides an accurate window into cerebrovascular and systemic vascular conditions. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and electroretinogram (ERG) can be used to quantitatively analyze the retinal structure and function in patients with ischemic stroke, and find out the valuable parameters. Electroencephalogram(EEG) can collect the electrical activity of cerebral cortex in patients with ischemic stroke and find the correlation between EEG and ERG. Finally, it is of great significance to establish a non-invasive, more objective, convenient and safe risk prediction model for stroke in combination with carotid atherosclerosis, retinal structural and functional parameters and EEG.

Conditions

Detailed Description

Firstly, this study will cross sectional analyze the retinal structure and function of patients with ischemic stroke to find the closely related parameters. Secondly, based on the results of cross section analysis, a cohort study will be established to build a risk prediction model for stroke combining carotid atherosclerosis, retinal structure and function parameters and EEG.

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Electroencephalogram(EEG)
Time Frame: 1year
Collecting the electrical activity of cerebral cortex in patients with ischemic stroke, including the electroencephalogram frequency(Hz) and amplitude(μV) of δ-wave, θ-wave, α-wave and β-wave. In addition, the pattern of these waves will be observed to find the signatures of ischemic stroke.
