| dc.description.abstract | Background: Diabetes is a group of metabolic disease with characteristic
hyperglycemia that occurs due to abnormalities in insulin secretion, insulin
action, or both. chronic hyperglycemia in diabetes ls associated with long-
term damage, dysfunction or failure of multiple organs, especially the
eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart and blood vessels. High blood sugar levels in
ischemic stroke associated increased mortality and morbidity. ln the
general population, symptoms of stroke in individuals without a history of
stroke diagnosis was associated with an increased risk of stroke in the
future. The stroke symptoms may indicate unrecognized stroke'
Purpose: to determine the relationship between blood sugar levels with
symptoms of stroke
Methods : this is a cross sectional study in non-stroke patients aged > 45
years old. At the time subjects admitted with stroke symptoms will be
assessed by QVSFS (Questionnaire Verifying Stroke Free Status)' After
that, the venous blood of the subjects will be drawn by laboratory
personnel to be sent to the Laboratory of Clinical Pathology Adam Malik
Hospital about 5 ml to check ad random blood sugar level, and after
fasting for about I hours to check fasting blood sugar level'
Result : Of 45 subjects, 21 (46,7%) had diabetes, and 9 (20%) had pre'
diabetes. Padicipant with diabetes have the highest prevalence of
experiencing stroke symptoms such as numbness on one side of the body
as much 7 persons (53,8%), whereas participants with prediabetes
have the highest prevalence of experiencing stroke symptom-such as
unable to say or write something as much as 3 persons (25%). There was
16 people (16,2%) of people with diabetes are women. From the results of
the bivariite analysis of participants with diabetes were more likely to
suffer symptoms of stroke such as sudden weakness on one side of the
body (IR 2,185 (95% Cl 0,454-10,538), p: 0,322), suddenly felt numbness
on oie side of the body (OR 1,500 (95% Cl 0,411-5,476)' p: 0'538) and
sudden loss of vision in one or both eyes (OR 1,105 (95% Cl 0'962-
1,270), p: 0,122), but the relationship is not statistically significant-
Whereas patients with pre-diabetes symptoms tend to suffer another
stroke
Conclusions : There is a relationship but not significant between blood
sugar level with symptoms of stroke | en_US |
