Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a precursor to stroke, and a person who experiences TIA has a 10-fold increased risk of stroke. There are previous studies showing transient neurological attacks (TNA) that include symptoms not certainly accepted for TIA also increase the risk of stroke. In this study, the presence of focal and non-focal neurological symptoms before acute ischemic stroke (AIS) or TIA was compared with the control group of similar age without any neurological diseases. METHODS: Between January 2018 and April 2020, all patients who were admitted to the neurology clinic with diagnosis of AIS or TIA were included in the study. The control group consisted of the patients with similar age who were admitted to the geriatric clinic or applied to the their outpatient clinics, and did not have any neurological disease. The focal and nonfocal neurological symptoms in the last month were questioned in patients with AIS or TIA and patients without any neurological disease. RESULTS: In this study, a total of 65 AIS or TIA patients and 68 control patients were prospectively evaluated. Vertigo, imbalance, blurred vision, visual phenomena, numbness, unsteady gait, and multiple symptoms were significantly more frequent in the patient group than in the control group (p

Özet

GİRİŞ ve AMAÇ: Geçici iskemik atak (GİA) inme habercisi olup, yaklaşık 10 kat artmış inme riski taşır. Tek başına GİA belirtisi olup olmadığı tartışmalı olan belirtileri içeren geçici nörolojik atakların (GNA) da inme riskini artırdığına dair veriler vardır. Bu çalışmada akut iskemik inme öncesinde son bir ayda görülen fokal ve non-fokal nörolojik belirtilerin varlığını herhangi bir nörolojik hastalığı bulunmayan benzer yaş grubundaki kişilerle karşılaştırmayı amaçladık. YÖNTEM ve GEREÇLER: Ocak 2018 ve Nisan 2020 tarihleri arasında akut iskemik inme veya GİA tanısıyla yatan hastalar çalışmaya alınmıştır. Kontrol grubunu ise aynı dönemde geriatri kliniğinde yatan veya ayaktan başvuran ve herhangi bir nörolojik hastalığı bulunmayan benzer yaş grubundaki kişiler oluşturmuştur. Akut iskemik inme/GİA öncesinde ve herhangi bir nörolojik hastalığı bulunmayan benzer yaş grubundaki kişilerde son 1 ayda görülen fokal ve non-fokal nörolojik belirtiler sorgulanmıştır. BULGULAR: Bu çalışmada toplam 65 akut iskemik inme veya GİA hastası ve 68 kontrol grubu prospektif olarak incelenmiştir. Baş dönmesi, dengesizlik, bulanık görme, görsel fenomenler, uyuşukluk, sarhoşvari yürüme ve çoklu belirtiler akut iskemik inme/GİA grubunda, kontrol grubuna göre istatistiksel olarak daha fazla idi (p
