Abstract:
Three hundred cerebrovascular disease (CVD) patients (disease onset <3 days) were evaluated for serum C-reactive protein (CRP) level at admission, and Scandinavian Stroke Scale (SSS) or Oxford Handicap Scale (OHS) at baseline and 3 months. Based on serum CRP levels, the participants were divided into group A [CRP(1.20 ±0.35)mg/L], group B[CRP(4.98 ± 1.08) mg/L] or group C[CRP (19.34±12.27)mg/L]. Our results showed that serum CRP level was positively correlated with SSS (r = 0.39 or0.43, both P<0.01) and OHS (r=0.40 or0.42, both P<0.01) at3 months. Thus, evaluating serum CRP level within 3 clays of disease onset might be helpful in predicting clinical outcomes of CVD patients.
