Association between hemoglobin glycation index and poor outcome after endovascular thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prognostic significance of hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) on acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients treated with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) remained unclear. This study aimed to investigate the association between HGI and the risk of poor outcome after EVT.

Methods

We retrospectively enrolled AIS patients with large vessel occlusion in the anterior circulation treated with EVT from a multicenter study. Poor outcome was defined as a modified Rankin scale score > 2 points at 90 days after EVT. We used multivariable logistic regression models to investigate the association between HGI and poor outcome. We employed the restricted cubic spline curve to visualize the association between HGI and the risk of poor outcome after EVT.
