Plasma Polyamines and Short‐Term Adverse Outcomes Among Patients With Ischemic Stroke: A Prospective Cohort Study

Background Polyamines have been reported to be associated with neurological function, but the associations between polyamines and the prognosis of ischemic stroke remain unclear. We aimed to prospectively investigate whether elevated plasma polyamine levels are associated with adverse outcomes in pa...

description Background Polyamines have been reported to be associated with neurological function, but the associations between polyamines and the prognosis of ischemic stroke remain unclear. We aimed to prospectively investigate whether elevated plasma polyamine levels are associated with adverse outcomes in patients with ischemic stroke. Methods and Results Plasma polyamine levels were measured at admission in 3570 patients with acute ischemic stroke, and clinical outcomes were assessed at 3 months after stroke onset. The primary outcome was a composite outcome of death and major disability (modified Rankin Scale score≥3), and secondary outcomes included the individual outcomes of death and major disability. During a 3‐month follow‐up period, 877 participants (25.1%) experienced the primary outcome. Increased putrescines were associated with a decreased risk of the primary outcome (the highest versus the lowest tertile: odds ratio, 0.72 [95% CI, 0.58–0.91]; P=0.005) and major disability (odds ratio, 0.59 [95% CI, 0.47–0.74]; P<0.001). Conversely, increased spermidines were associated with an increased risk of death (hazard ratio, 1.86 [95% CI, 1.10–3.14]; P=0.020), and increased spermines were associated with an increased risk of the primary outcome (odds ratio, 1.36 [95% CI, 1.08–1.71]; P=0.009) and major disability (odds ratio, 1.27 [95% CI, 1.01–1.59]; P=0.041). Conclusions Among patients with ischemic stroke, high plasma putrescine levels were associated with a decreased risk of adverse outcomes, whereas high plasma spermidine and spermine levels were associated with an increased risk of adverse outcomes. Further studies are needed to investigate whether targeting these polyamines can improve the prognosis of patients with ischemic stroke. Registration https://clinicaltrials.gov.
