Association between stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) and long-term mortality in patients with ischemic stroke: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) at the time of admission has been linked to short-term adverse outcomes in patients suffering from ischemic stroke (IS). However, the connection between SHR and long-term mortality in cases of IS has yet to be investigated. This study aimed to elucidate the connection between SHR and long-term mortality in IS patients, while also investigating the impact of stratification status on this relationship.

Methods

Data regarding IS patients were extracted from our medical institution's undisclosed internal stroke database, spanning from January 2016 to December 2023. Participants were classified into three groups according to the tertiles of continuous SHR. The primary outcome centered on all-cause mortality over a six-year period, w
