WBC count in predicting the occurrence of DCI
| Independent variable |
Unadjusted | Adjusted | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| OR (95% CI) | P-value | OR (95% CI) | P-value | |
| Higher WBC count | 4.67(2.11–10.32) | <0.001 | 4.38(1,37–13.96) | 0.013 |
| Higher NC | 3.16(1.34–7.46) | 0.01 | 2.86(0.858–9.56) | 0.087 |
| Lower LC | 2.93(1.02–8.42) | 0.043 | 2.22(0.53–9.32) | 0.275 |
Notes: Higher WBC count was defined as WBC >11.5×109/L. Higher NC count was defined as NC >7.5×109/L. Lower LC count was defined as LC <1.5×109/L. Variables were adjusted by baseline characteristics including sex, age, Hunt–Hess grade, hydrocephalus, and hypertension.
Abbreviations: DCI, delayed cerebral ischemia; WBC, white blood cell; NC, neutrophil count; LC, lymphocyte count.
