Abstract
Aim: Understanding risk factors with elevated diastolic blood pressure (DBP) in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is significant. Methods: Multivariable logistic regression was used to determine predictors of stroke severity in AIS patients, categorized by their DBP levels >80 mmHg and ≤80 mmHg. Results: AIS patients with DBP >80 mmHg that presents with a history of alcohol use (OR = 2.11, 95% CI: 1.116–3.988, p = 0.022), hypertension (OR = 1.572, 95% CI: 1.01–2.449, p = 0.035), and increasing heart rate (OR = 1.012, 95% CI: 1.012–1.022, p = 0.024) were associated with higher stroke severity Conclusion: Identified factors are independent predictors of higher stroke severity in AIS patients with elevated DBP.
期刊介绍:
The neurological landscape is changing rapidly. From the technological perspective, advanced molecular approaches and imaging modalities have greatly increased our understanding of neurological disease, with enhanced prospects for effective treatments in common but very serious disorders such as stroke, epilepsy, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease. Nevertheless, at the same time, the healthcare community is increasingly challenged by the rise in neurodegenerative diseases consequent upon demographic changes in developed countries.
