D2, 18–24 hours from baseline; OR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.

^aReference OR (1.00) is the lowest tertile of YKL-40 for poor outcome (mRS 4–6).

^bAdjusted factors: A = age and sex; B = A + hypertension, diabetes mellitus, hypercholesterolemia, and smoking; C = B+ previous stroke and D2 C-reactive protein level.

^c P<0.05.
