Abstract
Introduction: Ischemic stroke (Stroke) constitute, due to the demographic and epidemiological transition, a real challenge for developing countries and HIV infection, a real public health problem in these countries. The objective of our study was to describe aspects of clinical, paraclinical and prognostic ischemic stroke in people living with HIV (PLHIV) on antiretrovirals (ARVs). Material and methods: This was a prospective study of the descriptive type lasting 6 months from January 1, 2022 to June 31, 2022, relating to ischemic cerebrovascular accidents (DALYs) in HIV patients on ARVs.Were included patients admitted or hospitalized in the service for seropositive ischemic stroke under ARV for an average duration of 35.5 months. Patients recently put on ARVs and those with an obvious cause of DALY such as (diabetes, uncontrolled hypertension, emboligenic heart disease) were excluded. Results: During our study period, 336(94%) patients were listed. Among them, 20 have ischemic stroke associated with HIV on ARVs, i.e. 6%. This study showed that the average age of onset of ischemic stroke in PLHIV on ARV was 49 ± 11.6 years with a sex ratio F/M of 1.22. The risk factors were high blood pressure 13 (65%), diabetes 05 (25%), followed by alcohol 04 (20%). HIV type 1 was represented at 100%, then 16 (80%) of our patients were at WHO stage III with a CD4 count between 200 and 300 cells/µl09 (45%). The therapeutic line of ARVs was dominated by TDF+3TC+EFV at 14 (70%) followed by AZT+3TC+LPV/r at 04 (20%) and the average duration of patients on ARV was 35.5 months. The favorable evolution was marked 13 (65%), followed by a death in (10%) or 02. The location on the cerebral scanner was dominated by the sylvian artery in 12 (60%) of cases followed by the anterior cerebral artery (ACA) 06 (30%) and the posterior cerebral artery ( PCA) 02 (10%). Conclusion: Ischemic stroke in HIV patients on ARVs requires early management and regular monitoring
期刊介绍:
This interdisciplinary journal publishes papers relating to the plasticity and response of the nervous system to accidental or experimental injuries and their interventions, transplantation, neurodegenerative disorders and experimental strategies to improve regeneration or functional recovery and rehabilitation. Experimental and clinical research papers adopting fresh conceptual approaches are encouraged. The overriding criteria for publication are novelty, significant experimental or clinical relevance and interest to a multidisciplinary audience. Experiments on un-anesthetized animals should conform with the standards for the use of laboratory animals as established by the Institute of Laboratory Animal Resources, US National Academy of Sciences. Experiments in which paralytic agents are used must be justified. Patient identity should be concealed. All manuscripts are sent out for blind peer review to editorial board members or outside reviewers. Restorative Neurology and Neuroscience is a member of Neuroscience Peer Review Consortium.
