Nonlinear relationship between platelet count and 30-day in-hospital mortality in intensive care unit stroke patients: a multicenter retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Evidence of the relationship between platelet count and 30-day in-hospital mortality in ICU stroke patients is still scarce. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to explore the relationship between platelet count and 30-day in-hospital mortality among ICU stroke patients.

Methods

We conducted a multicenter retrospective cohort study using data from 8,029 ICU stroke patients in the US eICU-CRD v2.0 database from 2014 to 2015. Utilizing binary logistic regression, smooth curve fitting, and subgroup analyses, we examined the link between platelet count and 30-day in-hospital mortality.

Results

The 30-day in-hospital mortality prevalence was 14.02%, and the mean platelet count of 223 × 10⁹/L. Adjusting for covariates, our findings revealed an inv
