Figure 1.

Average of blood pressure levels during the initial 24 h and an mRS of 1 or less at 3 weeks after intracerebral hemorrhage from a Japanese dual-center observational study.

Compared with patients with the average of systolic blood pressure at least 158 mmHg, patients with the level <138 mmHg more frequently had an mRS of 1 or less after multivariate adjustment (OR 4.36, 95% CI 1.10–17.22). The frequency did not differ among the patient quartiles based on diastolic blood pressure.
