Endothelial activation and stress index is a reliable predictor for the prevalence and mortality outcomes of stroke.

ABSTRACT: The endothelial activation and stress index (EASIX) can predict endothelial intricacies as well as survival in distinct clinical circumstances. Accordingly, we hypothesize that EASIX may also serve as a predictor for stroke prevalence and mortality outcomes-all-cause mortality (ACM) and cardiovascular mortality (CVM) due to stroke. To validate our hypothesis, we deployed the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey data. This cohort study employed 1999-2018 NHANES data. To evaluate EASIX effects on stroke risk, weighted logistic regression models were deployed. Meanwhile, we utilized the weighted Cox proportional hazards model for the calculation of hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CI) for mortality outcomes. The Kaplan-Meier curves were utilized, seeking the asses
