title: [Dynamics of blood fibronectin and its correlation with the phenomenon of cryoglobulinemia in patients with ischemic stroke].
abstract: Seventy patients with carotid ischemic stroke (38 with atherothrombotic and 32 with cardioembolic variants) were examined. The dynamics of fibronectin level and its correlation with blood cryoglobulins concentrations were evaluated in the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st days after disease onset. The quantitative assessment of cryoglobulins content was carried out using spectrophotometric method; fibronectin concentration was measured by ELISA. In patients with atherothrombotic variant of stroke, the level of fibronectin in the blood serum and in the cryocomplex was higher compared to patients with cardioembolic variant in the 1st day (p < 0.001) and during all the period of the study (p < 0.05). The concentration of cryocomplexes in the blood serum of patients with ischemic stroke was in reverse correlation with percentage of fibronectin in their content and with the pathogenetic variant of ischemia (r = -0.94; p < 0.05 and r = -0.87; p < 0.05 or atherothrombotic and cardioembolic variants, respectively).
