Association between Oxidative Stress and Outcome in Different Subtypes of Acute Ischemic Stroke

Abstract: Objectives. This study investigated serum thiobarbituric acid-reactive substances (TBARS) and free thiol levels in different subtypes of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) and evaluated their association with clinical outcomes. Methods. This prospective study evaluated 100 AIS patients, including 75 with small-vessel and 25 with large-vessel diseases. Serum oxidative stress (TBARS) and antioxidant (thiol) were determined within 48 hours and days 7 and 30 after stroke. For comparison, 80 age- and sex-matched particip… Show more

“…Guldiken et al 16 found that circulating oxLDL levels were increased in the patients of acute ischemic stroke. Tsai et al 17 demonstrated that oxidative stress was progressive after ischemic stroke and contributed to further neurological damage. Furthermore, another study revealed that higher plasma oxLDL levels were a predictor for poor prognosis 3 months after acute ischemic stroke, even after adjustments for high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, white blood cell, infarct volume, and other lipid confounders and traditional risk factors for stroke outcome.…”

“…In the current study, the thiol index increased significantly in HS and IS over the first 7 days. Tsai et al (24) reported that the amount of free thiols in acute stroke patients increased by the seventh day to a level similar to that of the control group. Several studies reported that the thiol level in IS patients was significantly lower than in the control (4,24,25).…”

Several studies reported that the thiol level in IS patients was significantly lower than in the control (4,24,25). Thiols are organic compounds that contain a sulfhydryl (-SH) group that protects against oxidative stress.…”

“…Previous studies have shown that serum thiol levels are lower in acute ischaemic stroke patients compared to healthy patients; with an increase in the diameter of the arteries causing the ischaemia, thiol levels decrease further [22][23][24]. Patients with lower thiol levels using diff erent neurological assessment scales (NIHSS, mRS and Barthel scale etc.)…”
