Abstract: Purpose: Although hyperhomocysteinemia (Hhcy) is a risk factor for cerebral infarction, its effect on recurrent cerebral infarction is less-defined. We aimed to investigate the association of Hhcy and increased risk of recurrent cerebral infarct. Materials and methods: From 2011 to 2013, we recruited 231 primary cerebral infarct patients that were divided to a Hhcy group (n = 105) and a control group (n = 126) according to plasma homocysteinemia (Hcy) levels exceeding 15 μmol/L. In this prospective study, risk factors such as gender, age, blood lipid and glucose levels, history of diabetes, high blood pressure, smoking habits and plasma Hhcy levels were determined. A three-year follow-up compared differences in cerebral infarction recurrence rates. Statistical analyses identified whether plasma Hhcy levels were an independent risk factor for recurrent cerebral infarction. Results: Triglyceride and low-density lipoprotein (LDL) levels in the Hhcy group were significantly higher than controls, and cerebral infarct recurrence rates in the Hhcy group exceeded control subject rates through the three-year follow-up (p =.021, p =.036 and p =.025). Cox proportional hazards modeling showed that elevated Hhcy levels (hazard ratio [HR] = 3.062, p <.001), increased age (HR = 1.069, p <.01), circulating triglyceride levels (HR = 1.686, p =.048), and relative National Institutes of Health Stroke (NIHSS) score (HR = 1.068, p =.016) were risk factors for recurrent cerebral infarction. Conclusions: Level of Hhcy was a risk factor for recurrent cerebral infarction. Further, particular demographic and clinical outcomes including age, relative NIHSS scores, and circulating triglyceride levels were markedly associated with the occurrence of cerebral infarction.
