ABSTRACT: Introduction
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between four easy-to-measure inflammatory markers and the 90-day outcomes with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients who received intravenous thrombolytic therapy with recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (rt-PA). These included the neutrophil percentage-to-albumin ratio (NPAR), the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR), the platelet-to-lymphocyte ratio (PLR), and the combined NPAR+NLR index.Methods
This study enrolled 151 AIS patients who were treated with rt-PA (0.9 mg/kg). Clinical data were collected and NPAR, NLR, PLR were calculated from the admission blood work. The patients were followed up for 90 days after stroke onset and subsequently categorized into two groups based on the modified Rankin
