a
Poor functional outcomes were defined by mRS ratings > 2.
b
Adjusted for sex, body mass index, and variables with p values < 0.1 in the univariate analysis (age, NIHSS, DM, thrombolysis methods, number of trials for thrombectomy, successful recanalization, any hemorrhagic transformation, blood glucose level at admission, hemoglobin, total cholesterol, WBC, C-reactive protein, and vitamin D 25(OH)D).
