Popis: Lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 (Lp-PLA2) is reflective of vascular inflammation and plays a role in the pathophysiology of cerebrovascular disease. We determine usefulness of serum Lp-PLA2 as a prognostic biomarker for intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH).In this prospective, observational study, serum Lp-PLA2 concentrations were detected among 164 patients with acute spontaneous basal ganglia hemorrhage and 164 healthy controls. Using multivariate analysis, we analyzed its association with poor outcome (modified Rankin Scale2) at poststroke 90 days and hemorrhagic severity indicated by National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score and hematoma volume.Serum Lp-PLA2 concentrations were remarkably higher in patients than in controls. Lp-PLA2 concentrations were independently correlated with NIHSS score (t = 5.095, P .001) and hematoma volume (t = 2.850, P = .005). At 90-day follow-up, 85 patients (51.8%) had poor outcome. Under receiver operating characteristic curve, serum Lp-PLA2 showed a significant prognostic discriminatory capability (AUC, 0.813; 95% CI, 0.744-0.869). Serum Lp-PLA2 concentrations ≥304 ng/ml was an independent predictor associated with poor outcome (OR 7.052; 95% CI 1.971-25.228).Rising serum Lp-PLA2 concentrations are closely hemorrhagic severity and clinical outcomes after ICH, substantializing serum Lp-PLA2 as a potential prognostic biomarker of ICH.
