The association of the performances and outcomes with stroke center certification (CSCs vs PSCs) in Transfer-in Patients.

The multivariable logistic regression analysis were adjusted for potential confounders. † Due to skewed distribution, Poisson regression models with log link was used for these two variables and the results shown were risk ratios. Higher odds ratio or risk ratio indicated that the performance or outcome occurred more frequently in CSCs. *Represented p<0.05. **Represented p<0.001.
