Use of Cigarette and Maras Powder In Our İschemic Stroke Patients

Year 2020, Issue: 2, 204 - 207, 01.06.2020

Abstract

Purpose: The aim of this study was to determine the frequency of maraş powder use and cigarette smoking amongst stroke patients in our region. Patients and Methods: In this prospective study, evaluation was made of 200 patients who had been diagnosed with stroke and were being followed up in the Neurology Polyclinic of Kahramanmaraş Sütcü Imam University between December 2017 and March 2018. A record was made for each case of age, sex, personal history, family history, and risk factors coronary artery disease, diabetes mellitus, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, hyperlipidemia, smoking status, use of maraş powder and alcohol consumption . Neurological and physical examinations were performed. The findings of routine haematological and biochemical tests, carotidvertebral doppler ultrasonography, brain computed tomography and cranial magnetic resonance imaging were recorded. Results: A total of 200 patients were evaluated, comprising 121 60.5% males and 79 39.5% females with a mean age of 65.2±13 years. Risk factors were determined as hypertension in 146 73% patients, hyperlipidemia in 86 43% , diabetes mellitus in 61 31% , atrial fibrillation in 44 22% , coronary artery disease in 105 53% , cigarette smoking in 47 24% , maraş powder use in 34 17% and alcohol consumption in 7 4% . Employing the Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project OCSP classification, the clinical syndrome was determined as total anterior circulation infarct in 4% of the patients, posterior circulation infarct in 21.5%, partial anterior circulation infarct in 43% and lacunar syndrome in 31.5%. Conclusion: Cigarette smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco are the most important modifiable risk factors for stroke. The effect on stroke of cigarette smoking and the use of smokeless tobacco must be kept in mind, and public awareness and education on this topic be undertaken. Lifestyle changes to protect against stroke should be advised.

Abstract

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, bölgemizde inme geçiren olgularda sigara ve maraş otu kullanım alışkanlığının sıklığı incelendi. Hastalar ve Yöntem: Bu çalışmada aralık 2017-mart 2018 tarihleri arasında Kahramanmaraş Sütçü imam Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Noroloji polikliniğinde inme tanısı ile takip edilen 200 olgu prospektif olarak incelendi. Olguların yaş, cinsiyet, özgeçmiş, soygeçmiş, risk faktörleri koroner arter hastalığı, diabetes mellitus,hipertansiyon, atriyal fibrilasyon, hiperlipidemi, sigara, maraş otu, alkol kullanımı kaydedildi. Nörolojik ve Fizik muayeneleri yapıldı. Rutin hemogram,biyokimyasal tetkikleri, karototis-vertebral dopler ultrasonografi bulguları, bilgisayarlı beyin tomografi ve kranial manyetik rezonans bulguları kaydedildi. Bulgular: Çalışmadaki 200 olgunun 121’i %60.5 erkek, 79’u %39.5 kadındı. İskemik inme geçiren 200 hastanın yaş ortalaması 65.2 ± 13 idi. Risk faktörleri; 146 %73 hastada hipertansiyon, 86 hastada %43 hiperlipidemi, 61 hastada %31 diyabetes mellitus, 44 hastada %22 atrial fibrilasyon, 105 hastada %53 koroner arter hastalığı, 47 hastada %24 sigara kullanımı, 34 hastada %17 Maraş otu kullanımı, 7 hastada %4 alkol kullanımı vardı Oxfordshire Community Stroke Project OCSP sınıflamasına göre klinik sendrom; %4’ünde total anterior sirkülasyon infarktı, %21.5’inde posterior sirkülasyon infarktları, %43’ü parsiyel anterior sirkülasyon infarktı ve %31.5’inde laküner sendrom olarak saptandı Sonuç: Sigara ve dumansız tütün kullanımı, inmenin en önemli değiştirilebilir risk faktörleridir. Sigara ve dumansız tütün kullanımının inme üzerine olan etkisi akılda tutulmalı, toplum bu konuda bilgilendirilmeli, insanlara inmeden korunma için yaşam biçimi değişikliği öğütlenmelidir.
