Impact of B- and T-lymphocyte percentages on long-term outcomes after stroke.
Notes: The stroke cohort was dichotomized into higher percentages of B- or T-lymphocyte (Bhigh or Thigh) and low percentages of B- or T-lymphocyte (Blow or Tlow) groups. mRs were evaluated at 14 days after stroke and compared between two different groups. Patients with higher B- or T-lymphocyte percentages had significantly lower mRs scores. (A) Bhigh patients had lower scores of mRs than Blow patients. (B) Thigh patients had lower scores of mRs than Tlow patients. The line indicates the median. *P<0.05 by the Mann–Whitney U test.
Abbreviation: mRs, modified Rankin scale.
