Nithin Kumar. J, L. Bandhavi

Abstract :

 Serum uric acid has also been linked to prognosis of patient with acute ischaemic stroke. Evidence suggests that increased level of uric acid is protective in patients with acute ischaemic stroke ¹; although this issue has been debated, the neuroprotective role of uric acid in patient with acute ischaemic stroke is now established ². So it could be marker of value in prognosis of patient with acute ischaemic stroke.

The present study is designed to study the association between serum uric acid and stroke .the study is also intended to study the association between traditional risk factor for stroke and serum uric acid level in patients of acute ischaemic stroke.
