Abstract:Objective To investigate the relationships between Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene polymorphism and the initial acute ischemic stroke (AIS) while assessing its predictive value of short-term prognosis.Methods A total of 445 patients with AIS treated between January 2016 and January 2018 were selected and another 363 medical examinees were enrolled as controls in the study. Blood lipids, blood glucose and other related biochemical indicators were tested by the automatic biochemical analyzer. The ApoE genotype was detected by real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR. The enrolled AIS patients were treated according to China’s guidelines for acute ischemic stroke, and were evaluated using mRS (Modified Rankin Scale) within 24 hours of hospitalization and 6 months after discharge. Chi-square test was used to analyze the correlations between ApoE genotype and AIS prognosis.Results The ApoE genotype distribution of the 445 initial AIS patients was significantly different from that of the normal control group (χ2=13.31, P<0.01). For patients with immediate mRS>2 admission, ApoE genotyping was significantly different from that of the mRS ≤2 patients (χ2=7.70, P<0.01). Six months after discharge, patients with poor short-term prognosis (mRS>2) had different ApoE genotypes from patients with good prognosis (mRS≤2,χ2=11.31, P<0.01).Conclusions The ApoE gene polymorphism is closely related to the occurrence of initial AIS, which may be a predictor of poor short-term prognosis of AIS.
