Background:
Stroke is a rapid loss of brain function due to
disruption of blood supply to the brain and a major cause of
mortality andmorbidity worldwide. In Saudi Arabia the incidence
of ischemic stroke is 69%. Risk factors are: hypertension, diabetes
mellitus, smoking, dyslipidemia. Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs)
one of the world’s most frequently prescribed medications
contributed to many adverse effects. Retrospective study found
a significant increase in risk of new onset ischemic stroke in the
PPIs users. Prospective cohort study found no association.
Aim:
assess the likelihood of developing new onset ischemic
stroke among patients who were using PPIs for 6 months or more
versus patients who were not using PPIs.
Method:
Case-control study at King Abdulaziz Medical City
central region, from January2016 to January2017.Sample size
calculations based on probability type I error of 0.05,80%power,
estimated to be 400[200 ischemic stroke(cases) and 200 non-
ischemic stroke(controls)]. Each group obtained by simple
random sampling, medications reviewed if patients were using
PPIs. The association between PPIs use, demographic data,
clinical factors and development of ischemic stroke evaluated
by using Odds Ratio (OR) and 95%confidence interval (CI).
Continuous data expressed as mean ±SD. Categorical data
analyzed using the Chi-square test.
Result:
128 patients met the inclusion criteria.64 patients with
47 on PPIs had new onset ischemic stroke (meanage69.14±11.57,
53.13%were male), 64 patients with 39 on PPIs without ischemic
stroke (mean age 60.88±12.49, 54.69%were female). Primary
endpoint: there was insignificant association between patients
with previous exposure to PPIs and ischemic stroke (Odds
Ratio (OR) 0.396; 95% (CI) 0.111–1.415),In comparison to the
retrospective study. For secondary endpoint: the incidence of
ischemic stroke was insignificant between patients who used
different doses, 20mg orally daily in ischemic and non-ischemic
stroke (29.79%Vs.48.72%, respectively), and 40mg orally daily
in ischemic stroke and non-ischemic stroke (70.21%Vs.51.28%,
respectively), P=0.0723.
