ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the influence of apolipoprotein E gene (APOE) polymorphism on the acute-phase brain electrical activity after mild/moderate traumatic brain injury. Methods The clinical data of 112 patients with mild/moderate traumatic brain injury were collected and the APOE genotypes were identified by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP). The brain electrical activity in every patient was recorded twice by using electroencephalogram within one week after injury. Qualitative and quantitative methods were used to determine the variations of brain electrical activity. Chi-square test, variance analysis and logistic regression analyses via SPSS version 11.5 were performed among APOE genotypes, electroencephalogram data and clinical data. Results The distributions of APOE genetypes and alleles matched Haldy-Weinberg Law in 112 patients. Of 22 patients with APOEε4, 12 patients (55%) presented with deteriorated electroencephalogram, which was significantly higher than those (16 of 90 patients, 18%) without APOEε4 (P < 0. 01). Comparison of the first and second electroencephalograms demonstrated that the slow waves were increased significantly in patients with APOEε4 ( P < 0. 01 ) but decreased in patients with APOEε2 and APOEε3 (P <0.05). The reduction of slow waves in APOEε2 carriers was more obvious than APOEε3 carriers (P <0.05). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses showed that APOEε4 was a risk factor to electroencephalogram aggravation after traumatic brain injury. Conclusion APOEε4 is a risk factor to electroencephalogram aggravation during acute stage after mild/moderate traumatic brain injury. However,APOEε2 seems to be beneficial for recovery of brain electrical activity.
