Non-Linear Association Between Serum Alkaline Phosphatase and 3-Month Outcomes in Patients With Acute Stroke: Results From the Xi'an Stroke Registry Study of China.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events and is closely related to adverse outcomes after stroke. However, the regional investigation into the associations of ALP with acute stroke (AS) outcomes is limited. This study aimed to identify the association between serum ALP levels and clinical outcomes 3 months after AS in the Xi'an district of China.

Methods

We enrolled all patients with AS from 4 hospitals in the Xi'an district from January to December 2015. ALP levels and related patient information were collected at admission, and the events of stroke outcomes were followed up 1 and 3 months after diagnosis. ALP levels were analyzed as continuous variables and quartiles (Q1-Q4). The outcomes included all-cause mortali
