Objective To analysis the risk factors for carotid stenosis in patients with ischemic cerebrovascular disease based on digital subtraction angiography. Methods A total of 312 patients diagnosed with ischemic cerebrovascular disease who underwent digital subtraction angiography from June 2011 to September 2013 were selected.The risk factors of carotid stenosis were analysised by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results In 312 patients,271 were with cerebral infarction and 41 were transient ischemic attack patients.There were 149 patients in carotid stenosis group (stenosis degree ≥50%) and 163 patients in control group (stenosis degree<50%).The age (OR=1.037,P=0.000) and coronary heart disease (OR=4.121,P=0.001) were independent risk factors of carotid stenosis with ischemic cerebrovascular disease. Conclusion Carotid stenosis is common in ischemic cerebrovascular disease.Age and coronary heart disease were the independent risk factors.The recognition and control of these risk factors are in favor of secondary prevention of ischemic cerebrovascular disease.
