Assignment table of ischemic stroke risk factors and inflammatory factors in EH patients
| Factors | Variable | Explanation of assignment |
|---|---|---|
| Gender | X1 | Male = 1, female = 2 |
| BMI (kg/m2) | X2 | <25 = 1, ≥25 = 2 |
| History of blood pressure (years) | X3 | <10 = 1, ≥10 = 2 |
| Hypertension grading | X4 | Level 1 = 1, Level 2 = 2, Level 3 = 3 |
| AS plaque | X5 | Yes = 1, no = 2 |
| UA (µmol/L) | X6 | <410 = 1, ≥410 = 2 |
| hs-CRP (mg/L) | X7 | <3 = 1, ≥3 = 2 |
| Lp-PLA2 (µ/L) | X8 | <358.33 = 1, ≥358.33 = 2 |
| Ischemic stroke | Y | EH = 0, EH with ischemic stroke = 1 |
The reference value of BMI is 18–25 kg/m2 and the reference value of UA is 150–410 µmol/L, so we choose the right value of the reference value as the point of stratification, resepectively. hs-CRP: High-sensitivity C-reactive protein; Lp-PLA2: Lipoprotein associated phospholipase A2; AS: Atherosclerosis; BMI: Body mass index; UA: Uric acid; EH: Essential hypertension.
