Systemic inflammation response index as a prognostic predictor in patients with acute ischemic stroke: A propensity score matching analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS), the most common type of stroke, is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. A growing number of studies have demonstrated that inflammation is a critical mechanism in AIS. Being an easily available and effective inflammatory marker, the systemic inflammation response index (SIRI) shows a high association with mortality in patients with cancer and intracerebral hemorrhage. In this study, we evaluated the potential prognostic role of SIRI in critically ill patients with AIS.

Methods

Clinic data were extracted from the Medical Information Mart data for the Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database. The optimal cutoff value of SIRI was determined by X-tile software. The primary outcome was the 90-day all-cause mortality, and the sec
