ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
Glycated albumin (GA) is an indicator of glycemic variability over the past 2-4 weeks and has suitable characteristics for predicting the prognosis of ischemic stroke during the acute phase. This study evaluated the association between early neurological deterioration (END) and GA values in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).METHODS:
We assessed consecutive patients with AIS between 2022 and 2023 at two large medical centers in Korea. END was defined as an increase of ≥ 2 in the total National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score or ≥ 1 in the motor NIHSS score within the first 72 h of admission. We evaluated various glycemic parameters including fasting glucose (mg/dL), hemoglobin A1c (%), and GA (%).RESULTS:
In total, 531 patients with AIS were evaluated (median age 69 years, male sex 66.3%). In the multivariable logistic regression analysis, GA value was positively associated with END (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 3.24, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.10-9.50). Initial NIHSS score (aOR = 1.04, 95% CI 1.01-1.08) and thrombolytic therapy (aOR = 2.06, 95% CI 1.14-3.73) were also associated with END. In a comparison of the predictive power of glycemic parameters for END, GA showed a higher area under the curve value on the receiver operating characteristic curve than fasting glucose and hemoglobin A1c.CONCLUSIONS:
High GA values were associated with END in patients with AIS. Furthermore, GA was a better predictor of END than fasting glucose or hemoglobin A1c.Palavras-chave
