Relationship between Cholesterol Level and Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage: A Case-Control Study in Bangladesh.
Mymensingh medical journal : MMJ(2022)
Abstract
Spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage is one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity. Genetic factors play an important role in this disease. Among the non-genetic causes cholesterol level is one of the risk factors. The aim of the study was to evaluate the association between ICH (Intracerebral hemorrhage) and cholesterol level as well as to find out the risk of total cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TG), High-density lipoprotein (HDL) and Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) for the disease. This was a case-control retrospective study with 60 cases and 60 controls. The study place was in the Neurosurgery department of Sylhet Women's Medical College Hospital and the study period was 2 years (from January 2020 to December 2021). The mean age ±SD of the cases was 57.08±9.47 years and the highest number of participants was in the 51-60 year group. Commonest location of ICH was deep (67.0%) followed by intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) (28.3%) and lobar (5.0%). The means of TC (p=0.0004), TG (p=0.00013) and LDL (p<0.00001) were significantly lower than those of control group. The mean of HDL (36.48) of cases was significantly (p=0.00003) higher than the mean HDL (28.9) of controls. TC participants had 52.0% less risk to develop ICH. Raised TG had 46.0% and raised LDL had 52.0% lower risk of ICH.
