Abstrakt
The objective of the present study was to estimate parameters of oxidative status in the cerebrospinal fluid in the course of ischemic stroke and in the prediction of recovery of neurological functions. Concentration of superoxide dismutase (SOD) as a marker of antioxidant adaptation, the secondary lipid peroxidation products reacting with thiobarbituric acid (PRTBA), cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) as an indirect product of NO generation, and N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) as a marker of destruction of neuronal membranes were studied. One hundred and fifty patients with hemispheric ischemic stroke admitted to a hospital during the first 12 h after stroke were examined. It has been shown that the development of cerebral infarction is accompanied by increased concentrations of oxidative stress markers. Progressive ischemic stroke was characterized by the significantly prolonged increase in PRTBA, cGMP, NANA to the third day from the first symptoms of disease while regressive course was accompanied by the lack of higher production of TBKRP, cGMP, NANA to the third day of disease. The decrease in concentrations of factors of brain damage (PRTBA, cGMP, NANA) in the cerebrospinal fluid, along with the increasing role of processes of antioxidant adaptation, expressed in the growth of SOD concentrations, can be considered as a criterion for the prediction of recovery of disturbed neurologic function to the 21th day of disease.
