Combined utility of white blood cell count and blood glucose for predicting in-hospital outcomes in acute ischemic stroke

Abstract: Background High white blood cell (WBC) count and high blood glucose level are risk factors for mortality and pneumonia after acute ischemic stroke (AIS). We investigated the combined effect of high WBC count and high blood glucose level on hospital admission and in-hospital mortality and pneumonia in acute AIS patients. Methods A total of 3124 AIS patients enrolled from December 2013 to May 2014 across 22 hospitals in Suzhou city were included in the present study. We d… Show more

“…Patients aged ≥18 years with a clinical diagnosis of AIS or TIA were considered eligible. The methods for recruiting study participants have been detailed elsewhere [18,19]. Briefly, diagnosis of ischemic stroke was made according to World Health Organizationdefined criteria based on patient history, clinical data, and neuroimaging results (computed tomography or magnetic resonance imaging).…”

“…30 Se han realizado pocos estudios observacionales asociando el aumento del índice leucoglucémico propuesto por Quiroga, en un inicio para el infarto agudo de miocardio, y la mortalidad posterior a un cuadro isquémico agudo, con dis-tintos puntos de corte para el ILG y resultados diversos. 8, [16][17][18]20 En nuestro estudio, de un total de 281 historias clínicas revisadas, 18 fueron de pacientes fallecidos, de los cuales el 56% falleció con un índice leucoglucémico mayor a 1600, siendo este resultado estadísticamente significativo en el análisis bivariado (RR:6.56; IC: 95% [2.74-15.70]; p <0.001) y multivariado (RRa: 6.33, IC:95% [1. 35-29.64]; p = 0.019), indicando que el índice leucoglucémico alto fue un predictor independiente de mortalidad intrahospitalaria en los pacientes con cuadro isquémico agudo.…”
