Stroke outcome estimates (ORs (95% Cis)) associated with level of urea/creatinine ratio (UCR).
| OR (95% CI) for 1-SD in UCR | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Unadjusted | Model 1 | Model 2 | |
| Disability or death (discharge mRS ≥ 2) | 1.38 (1.23–1.55) | 1.18 (1.06–1.31) | 1.07 (0.97–1.19) |
| Length of stay ≥7 days | 1.01 (0.93–1.10) | 0.98 (0.90–1.07) | 0.95 (0.85–1.05) |
| Complications during hospitalization | 1.07 (0.97–1.18) | 0.99 (0.88–1.11) | 0.85 (0.72–1.01) |
| Infection during hospitalization | 1.14 (1.03–1.27) | 1.07 (0.95–1.21) | 0.95 (0.78–1.17) |
| 1-year mortality | 1.19 (1.06–1.34) | 1.11 (0.97–1.27) | 0.99 (0.81–1.21) |
Model 1 adjusted for age and sex. Model 2 adjusted for age, sex, stroke severity, hypertension, diabetes, current smoking, atrial fibrillation, prior stroke, prior heart disease, peripheral artery disease, disability before the stroke, use of statins, and use of diuretics for1 week or more before symptoms onset. Statistically significant estimates are shown in bold.
