Association of Severity and Prognosis With Elevated Homocysteine Levels in Patients With Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

ABSTRACT: Background: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) has high mortality and morbidity rates in the world. Homocysteine (Hcy) has been demonstrated to be an independent risk factor and could predict the prognosis and recurrence of ischemic stroke. In our study, we aimed to find out the relationship between Hcy levels and the severity and prognosis of patients with ICH. Methods: Patients' basic characteristics and laboratory examination results, including the concentration of homocysteine, were taken at baseline from January 2014 to September 2016, and a 1 year follow-up, including the modified Rankin Scale and living status, was taken for all the patients. Logistic regression and Kaplan-Meier survival method were used to analyze the relationship between different Hcy levels and clinical
