Abstract: Objective To investigate the independent risk factors of cerebral microbleeds(CMBs)in patients with cerebral small vessel disease(CSVD). Methods A total of 101 patients who met the imaging diagnostic criteria of CSVD were divided into CMBs group and non-CMBs group. The risk factors and protective factors of CMBs were identified with statistical analysis. Results Compared with non-CMBs group, CMBs group had a higher incidence of hypertension(χ2=9.879, P=0.002), higher levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein(hs-CRP)(t=2.294, P=0.024), homocysteine(Hcy)(t=2.193, P=0.031), cystatin C(Cys-C)(t=2.160, P=0.034)and lipoprotein a(Lpa)(t=4.247, P<0.001), but lower level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-c)(t=-3.342, P=0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that hypertension(P=0.002, OR=6.706, 95%CI: 2.011-22.362), hs-CRP(P=0.049, OR=1.279, 95%CI:1.001-1.635), Lpa(P=0.001, OR=1.006, 95%CI:1.003-1.009)and LDL-c(P=0.039, OR=0.472, 95%CI: 0.232-0.963)were independently correlated with CMBs. Conclusion Hypertension, hs-CRP and Lpa are the independent risk factors of CMBs, whereas LDL-c is a protective factor.
