[Course of ischemic heart disease in patients who have sustained a stroke].
The state of the cardiovascular system was studied over time in 171 patients with a history of acute impairment of the brain circulation; 135 of them were suffering from coronary heart disease (CHD) (the study group) and 35 patients were free of CHD (the control group). The majority of the study group patients showed little if any clinical manifestations of CHD in the acute period of cerebral stroke. Five (3.7%) patients displayed small focal myocardial infarction on the ECG, two showed focal dystrophy of the myocardium, 71 (52.2%) patients had compromised coronary circulation and 47.5% of the patients had various disorders of rhythm and conductivity. The impairment of the coronary circulation in the acute period of cerebral stroke was shown to correlate with a subsequent course of CHD.
