Statistical Research
I opposed standard features off people having and you can in place of TNAs that have the ? dos decide to try for categorical details while the t test getting continuing variables. I used logistic regression investigation which have TNA as separate changeable and you may new visibility or absence of lacunes and you may early confluent or confluent WMHs as founded varying (separate patterns each marker), adjusted to have years, sex, and you can blood pressure level. Any telecommunications within relation regarding TNAs for each MRI marker and kind out-of new member (clients with center incapacity, possible vascular cognitive impairment, or carotid artery occlusion in the place of people regarding reference category) is examined by as well as a great multiplicative correspondence title ranging from kind of new member and you may TNAs on the logistic regression design.

Profile. Summary of the individual circulate for this analysis. COD ways carotid occlusive disease; HBC, Heart-Attention Union; HF, center inability; MMSE, Mini-State of mind Examination; MRI, magnetized resonance imaging; TIA, transient ischemic attack; TNA, transient neurological assault; and VCI, vascular cognitive disability.
Overall, 63 players (21%) got knowledgeable ?1 TNAs from the preceding 6 months. TNAs have been experienced in 47 HBC study people (25%) and also in 16 users regarding the source class (14%). Properties of the data people is discussed in Desk 1 and stratified considering sort of HBC studies participant, in the Desk 2. Customers that have TNAs had been more often ladies plus often had blood pressure level than just members without TNAs. People having and you will instead of TNAs failed to disagree with respect to many years, the remaining vascular risk facts, and you will reputation for vascular state.
