Association between albumin to Globulin ratio and pneumonia in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT: The albumin-to-globulin ratio (AGR) has been associated with infectious diseases; however, its association with pneumonia in patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) is unclear. This research aims to investigate the connection between AGR and hospital-acquired pneumonia (HAP). This retrospective analysis included 4,813 patients with aSAH from West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Serum samples were collected within seven days after admission. Logistic regression analysis was conducted to assess the association between AGR and HAP. Among the 4,813 patients, 1,249 (26.0%) developed HAP. The patients were classified into quartiles according to their AGR levels. Significant differences in odds ratios (ORs) were found in admission AGR: 0.76 (95% CI 0.63-0.93, p = 0.007) for Q2
