Objective To investigate the association between right-to-left shunt (RLS) and left atrial enlargement (LAE) and in cryptogenic stroke (CS) patients with RLS, as well as the association between LAE and the onset of stroke in CS patients with RLS. Methods General information and cardiac parameters on transthoracic echocardiography were collected from 211 CS patients (CS group) and 211 non-stroke patients (control group) who were admitted to department of neurology of our hospital, from May 2016 to December 2022, and transcranial Doppler was used to determine the presence or absence of RLS and the degree of RLS. According to the presence or absence of RLS, the patients in the CS group were further divided into CSRLS-positive group and CSRLS-negative group, and the patients in the control group were further divided into RLS-positive control group and RLS-negative control group; according to the degree of RLS, the CSRLS-positive group was further divided into severe RLS group and mild RLS group. Related indicators were compared between the CS group and the control group, between the CSRLS-positive group and the CSRLS-negative group, between the severe RLS group and the mild RLS group, and between the CSRLS-positive group and the RLS-positive control group, and a multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to identify the influence factors for the onset of stroke in CS patients with RLS. Results There were significant differences in cardiac parameters between the CS group and the control group (t=-10.65--2.45,P |
