Prognostic value of glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio for all-cause mortality and consciousness impairment in critically ill cerebrovascular disease patients.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio (GLR) is a promising biomarker linked to metabolic status and inflammation, with prognostic value in various diseases. However, its role in predicting outcomes for patients with cerebrovascular diseases, particularly in intensive care units, remains unclear.

Methods

Data from 1,810 intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and 2060 ischemic stroke patients in the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV database were analyzed. Cox proportional hazards models were used to evaluate the relationship between GLR and in-hospital mortality, while logistic regression assessed its association with consciousness impairment. Restricted cubic spline analysis was performed to examine potential non-linear links. The incremental predictive value of GL
