Abstract
- Objective: To explore the related factors of enlarged perivascular spaces (EPVS) and lacunes in the patients with hypertension, and to provide a basis for the prevention and treatment of cerebral small vessel disease. Methods: A total of 1 070 patients with essential hypertension without stroke history were enrolled, and the data was analyzed retrospectively. All patients received MRI scanning and ambulatory blood pressure monitoring. According to MRI images, they were divided into normal control, EPVS and lacunes groups, respectively. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression were performed among three groups to determine the factors related to EPVS and lacunes. Results: The indexes including age, gender, smoking, diabetes history, antiplatelet drugs, statins, hypertension duration, nocturnal blood pressure dip degree, mean systolic blood pressure, cholesterol, triglyceride, high-density lipoprotein, low density lipoprotein, urea nitrogen, creatinine, homocysteine and carotid plaque were significantly different among EPVS, lacunes and controls groups. Mean high systolic blood pressure and age were independent risk factors for EPVS, while the dipping degree of blood pressure, antiplatelet medicines and statins were independent protective factors for it. High mean systolic blood pressure, old age, smoking, and diabetes were independent risk factors for lacunes, while the dipping degree of nocturnal blood pressure, antiplatelet medicines and statins were independent protective factors for lacunes. Conclusions: For the patients with hypertension, the increase of mean systolic blood pressure and the decrease of nocturnal blood pressure dipping are the risk factors for EPVS and lacunes. Besides controlling mean systolic blood pressure level, the patients with hypertension should also receive chronotherapy to restore the normal nocturnal blood pressure dipping through changing the time of taking medicine.
