Özet
Aim: This study aimed to demonstrate the diagnostic and prognostic value of NR-2 peptides as a biomarker in acute ischemic stroke and to evaluate their correlation with the Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Materials and Methods: The importance of NR-2 peptide level in diagnosis and prognosis in acute stroke was investigated cross-sectional and prospectively. The study included 101 patients, who presented to a tertiary healthcare facility and were diagnosed with acute stroke, and 57 healthy controls. In the whole study population, serum NR-2 peptide levels were measured using the ELISA method. Results: The NR-2 peptide level was 6.32 ± 8.30 in the patient group and 3.91 ± 1.64 in the study group. The NR-2 peptide level was significantly higher in the patient group (p = 0.006). No correlation was detected between NR-2 peptide levels and scores in the GCS or NIHSS. The results indicated that NR-2 was a potential biomarker elevated in the early phase of acute stroke, but had no correlation with the prognosis of acute stroke. Conclusion: Although our data shed light on the use of the NR-2 peptide level as a biomarker in the acute phase in patients with stroke, data are insufficient to predict prognosis. We think that larger, multicenter studies with longer follow-up periods are needed.
