Association Between High Serum Anion Gap and All-Cause Mortality in Non-Traumatic Subarachnoid Hemorrhage: A Retrospective Analysis of the MIMIC-IV Database.

ABSTRACT:

Background

High serum anion gap (AG) on admission is often correlated with poor outcomes in critically ill patients; however, data in patients with non-traumatic subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) are lacking. Herein, we aimed to identify the association between serum AG and all-cause mortality in patients with non-traumatic SAH.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care (MIMIC-IV) database was performed on critically ill patients with non-traumatic SAH. Serum AG was collected on Intensive Care Unit (ICU) admission, and ICU and hospital all-cause mortality were analyzed. The multivariate Cox proportional hazard regression model and Kaplan-Meier survival curve analysis were used to analyze the correlation of serum AG with ICU and
