The present study was carried out in the Department of Pharmacology and Therapeutics in collaboration with the Departments of Medicine and Neurology of Sylhet M.A.G Osmani Medical College and Hospital to evaluate the effect of mannitol on serum electrolytes in stroke patients. A total number of Forty five (45) acute stroke patients were randomly allocated in two groups- 23 patients received mannitol and 22 patients did not receive mannitol. On Day 1 after measuring serum electrolyte levels of both groups, mannitol receiving group was given infusion mannitol 1 gm/kg IV bolus followed by 0.5 gm/kg IV 6 hourly till 3rd day and then again on Day 3 serum electrolyte levels of both groups were measured. Predisposing risk factors, egsmoking, hypertension, dyslipidaemia were also analyzed. RBS (Random Blood Sugar) and serum creatinine were estimated before treatment initiation with aim to assess hyperglycaemia and renal impairment respectively. Statistical analysis was done by SPSS program using unpaired ‘t’ test between two groups and between Day 1 and Day 3 by paired ‘t’ test. The result showed that serum sodium and potassium at Day 1 and Day 3 were almost similar between mannitol receiving group and mannitol non-receiving group ( P>0.05 for each component). After infusion of mannitol till third day, no electrolyte imbalance was noted. The study depicts that mannitol can be safely given to stroke patients as there were no change in electrolyte balance till third day.\u0000Bangladesh Journal of Neuroscience 2016; Vol. 32 (1): 21-27","PeriodicalId":8727,"journal":{"name":"Bangladesh Journal of Neuroscience","volume":"59 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78357526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevalence of Alhzeimer’s dementia is increasing in western societies. But vascular dementia (VaD) is increasing in developing countries like Bangladesh and in Japan, because of the decline in mortality after stroke and aging of population. Conflicting data shows that hyperlipidaemia, a modifiable risk factor for ischemic stroke is associated with a higher risk of vascular dementia.\u0000Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate association of hyperlipidaemia with vascular dementia. Method: It was a cross-sectional descriptive study conducted in the Department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Shahbag, Dhaka from August 2014 to November, 2015. All stroke patients above 18 years of age and both sexes, attending the department of Neurology, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, Dhaka presenting at least 3 months after stroke were the study population. Patients attending to the above mentioned hospital and after meeting the inclusion and exclusion criteria a purposive sampling technique were applied for selecting cases. Total 73 cases were evaluated. These patients were examined by MMSE for evidence of dementia. Severity and risk factors of vascular dementia were assessed. Serum fasting lipid profile was estimated in all cases and evaluated their association with VaD.\u0000Results: In this study it was observed that most of the stroke patients and VaD patients were in the age group of 5th and 6th decade. Among stroke patients it was 17(23.3%) and 31(42.5%) and among VaD patients it was 10(25.6%) and 18 (46.6%). Male outnumbered female (in stroke male-63%, Female-37%; in VaD male-59%, Female 41%). In this study out of 73 patients 40(54.8%) were smoker, 67(91.8%) had hyperlipidemia, 54(74%) had hypertension, 35(47.9%) had diabetes mellitus, 15 (20.5%) had IHD, 64(87.7%) had ischemic stroke, 9(12.3%) had hemorrhagic stroke, 25(34.25%) had recurrent stroke. Most of the patients were house-wife 16((21.9%) and read upto primary level 22 (30%). Out of 73 stroke patients 39(53.4%) had VaD. Of them 12(30.8%) had mild, 16(41%) had moderate and 11(28.2%) had severe dementia. Again out of 39 VaD patients 38(97.4%) had history of ischemic stroke and 1(2.6%) had history of hemorrhagic stroke who was moderately demented. Among VaD and non-vascular dementia patients the mean S. total cholesterol, S. triglyceride, S. LDL-C and S.HDL-C were 185.35±44.07, 149.82±57.05, 133.58±44.53, 31.07±11.16 (mg/dl) and 178.70±48.40, 151.35±76.12, 116.48±42.39, 33.61±11.82 (mg/dl) respectively.\u0000Conclusion-: In this study there is a non-significant positive association with high S. total cholesterol, high S. LDL-C, Low S. HDL-C but not with S. triglyceride.

This is particularly true for developing countries like Bangladesh, where health support system including the rehabilitation system is not within the reach of common people. Hypertriglycerademia has an effective influence in the pathogenesis of Ischaemic Stroke (IS). So, the focus of this study was to evaluate and assess the association of serum triglyceride level in patients of IS. This case control study was carried out in the Department of Neurology in collaboration with Department of Biochemistry, BSMMU, Dhaka from July 2011 to June 2013. In this study, 60 diagnosed cases of ischaemic stroke patients and 60 age and sex matched healthy controls were enrolled. Risk factors of Ischemic Stroke (IS) patients were assessed ( adjusted Odds Ratio) in comparison with healthy adults. In this study, being married [OR. 1.95, 95% CI (0.40-9.42), p=0.409] , smoker [OR.1.65, 95% CI (0.57 - 4.82),p= 0.357], DM [OR. 1.48, 95% CI (0.36-6.06), p=0.582 ], IHD [OR. 1.51, 95% CI (0.29 – 7.89), p=0.624] , HTN [OR. 3.66, 95% CI (1.11–12.12), p=0.033] , overweight [OR.2.31, 95% CI (0.77 – 6.91), 0.135] and obesity [OR. 16.19, 95% CI (1.31–200.6), p=0.030] , increased level of serum TC [OR.8.24, 95% CI (2.07 – 32.83), p=0.003], TG [OR. 9.40, 95% CI (1.17 -75.86), p=0.035], LDL [OR. 0.45, 95% CI (0.10–2.05), p=0.308],and decreased level of HDL [OR. 3.37, 95% CI (1.03 - 12.25), p=0.045] were found as risk factors in developing IS. Independent t-test was done to find out the statistically significant differences of continuous variables like serum lipid profile between case and control group. The mean (SD) value of TG which is focus of this study, was found 237.67 (61.74) in case group, and 169.97 (26.95) in control group which was highly statistically significant (p < 0.0001). All of the significant variables were entered into stepwise logistic regression analysis model. From the logistic regression model, it can be finally concluded that hypertension, obesity, increased level of TC, increased level of TG and decreased level of HDL were statistically significant risk factors for development of IS. \u0000Bangladesh Journal of Neuroscience 2016; Vol. 32 (1): 34-38","PeriodicalId":8727,"journal":{"name":"Bangladesh Journal of Neuroscience","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87502533","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
