Final Stroke Prediction Model
| Vulnerable Carotid Plaque (ipsilateral Stroke) Predictor | PR | P Value | 95% CI | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intraluminal thrombus | 2.8 | <0.001 | 1.6 | 4.9 |
| Maximal soft plaque thickness (per each mm) | 1.2 | <0.001 | 1.1 | 1.4 |
| Positive rim sign | 2.0 | 0.007 | 1.2 | 3.3 |
The final stroke prediction model depended on 3 factors with P<0.10: intraluminal thrombus, maximum soft plaque thickness and a positive rim sign.
PR indicates prevalence ratio.
