Prediction of prognosis in patients with nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage using blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine ratio on admission: a retrospective cohort study based on data from the medical information Mart for intensive care-IV database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The blood urea nitrogen-to-creatinine ratio (BUNCR) has been proposed as a potential biomarker for critical illness-induced catabolism. However, its specific relevance and significance in the context of non-traumatic intracranial hemorrhage (NTIH) remains unclear. As such, the primary objective of this study was to determine the role of BUNCR in the prognosis of patients with NTIH.

Materials and methods

All data were sourced from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV 2.0 (MIMIC-IV) database. Study outcomes included 30-day and 1-year mortality rates. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were used to calculate adjusted odds ratio with corresponding 95% confidence interval, and generalized additive model were used to identify both lin
