Abstract


In recent years, many studies have shown that the rate of stroke in young people is increasing. With the goal of describing the paraclinical characteristics and imaging diagnostic results of patients with cerebral infarction in the Northern mountainous region, we conducted a study on 100 patients diagnosed with cerebral infarction (at that time, first stroke score ≤ 60 years old) treated at the Stroke Center, Thai Nguyen Central Hospital volunteered to participate in the study. Using descriptive and analytical research methods, we have obtained the following results: The average values of plasma glucose, total cholesterol, and triglycerides are higher than normal values; The most common location of damage is the white matter (accounting for 27%), followed by the putamen (accounting for 21%), and the temporal lobe accounting for 13%. Infarction in other areas occurs at a lower rate (≤9%); One lesion accounts for the highest rate (31%), and the number of patients with more than three lesions also accounts for a high rate of 29%. Mainly lacunar and small cerebral infarcts (size <30mm) account for 70.4%.
