Objective: To deeply analyze the differences in multiple clinical indicators between patients with internal carotid artery insufficiency and cerebral artery insufficiency, and provide a strong basis for clinical accurate differential diagnosis and the formulation of personalized treatment plans. Methods: From January to December 2024, 75 patients with internal carotid artery insufficiency and 40 patients with cerebral artery insufficiency were collected in Rongxian Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital. A comprehensive detection of clinical indicators was carried out for all patients, covering blood routine, CRP, liver and kidney function, blood glucose, blood lipids, electrolytes, calcium and magnesium, hemorheology, and coagulation function. SPSS 22.0 software was used for statistical analysis of the data. The t-test was used for measurement data, and the χ2-test was used for counting data. P < 0.05 was used as the standard for statistical significance of differences. Results: There were significant differences between the two groups of patients in terms of age, some blood lipid indices (the levels of LDL, TC, and HDL in the cerebral artery insufficiency group were all higher than those in the internal carotid artery insufficiency group), and some coagulation function indices (FIB and INR increased in the cerebral artery insufficiency group). However, there were no significant differences in most indices such as blood routine, CRP, liver and kidney functions, blood glucose, electrolytes, PT, TT, APTT, calcium and magnesium, and hemorheology. Conclusion: There are significant differences in some key clinical indicators between patients with internal carotid artery insufficiency and cerebral artery insufficiency, and these differences have important guiding value for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
