Higher serum triglyceride level in patients with acute ischemic stroke is associated with lower infarct volume on CT brain scans

We investigated the relationship between serum triglyceride level and acute ischemic stroke severity using infarct volume on CT brain scans as a marker. A total of 121 consecutive acute ischemic stroke patients (53 males and 68 females, age 47-93 years) with anterior circulation (75%), posterior cir...
