Metabolic syndrome prevalence and patient characteristics in hospitalised patients after stroke

Sneh Kumar Jha, Rajesh Kumar Jha.


Abstract
Introduction: Stroke causes a variety of neurological signs and symptoms, which vary depending on the extent, area of involvement, and underlying cause. Coma, hemiplegia, paraplegia, monoplegia, cranial nerve palsy, speech disturbance, and sensory impairment are examples. Hemiplegia is the most common of these, affecting approximately 90% of patients.
Objectives: To investigate the prevalence of metabolic syndrome in stroke patients. To investigate the role of various components of metabolic syndrome in the development of stroke.
Methods: During the study period of 2 years, all patients with stroke aged more than 30 years and less than 60 years were admitted to Darbhanga Medical College and Hospital, Bihar, India. A minimum of 50 stroke patients must be over the age of 30 and under the age of 60. We used simple random sampling. For analysis, SPSS (22.0) was used. A detailed history of all subjects will be taken, particularly a family history of hypertension, diabetes mellitus, weight gain, alcohol use, and a history of other cerebrovascular disease risk factors.
Results: Out of 50 stroke patients, 28 had metabolic syndrome. The prevalence of metabolic syndrome in stroke patients was 56%. 70% were men and 30% were women. When compared to males, females had a higher incidence of metabolic syndrome. It is, however, not statistically significant. The most common mode of presentation in both stroke with and without metabolic syndrome was weakness, which was followed by deviation of the angle of the mouth, aphasia, and loss of consciousness.
Conclusion: Long-term follow-up population-based studies have shown that healthy people with the Metabolic syndrome have a significantly increased risk of major cardiovascular events, such as stroke and cardiovascular mortality.

Key words: Coma, hemiplegia, hypertension, hyperlipidemia, stroke
