Association between high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels and clinical outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients treated with endovascular therapy.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Increasing evidence demonstrates that high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) is an independent prognostic predictor in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients. The purpose of this study is to investigate the association between hs-CRP levels and clinical outcomes in AIS patients receiving endovascular therapy (EVT).

Methods

This observational study was based on a prospective registry study. AIS patients receiving EVT from December 2012 to January 2019 were included. The modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at the 90-day and long-term follow-up were evaluated as clinical outcomes. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to adjust for confounders. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed based on significant predictors o
