Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of systemic immune-inflammatory index (SII) for hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and symptomatic intracranial hemorrhage (sICH) after intravenous thrombolysis in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS).Methods:Patients with AIS received intravenous thrombolysis in the Department of Neurology, Huai’an First People’s Hospital from July 2019 to July 2022 were included retrospectively. The head CT was performed at 24 h after intravenous thrombolysis and determined whether HT existed. sICH was defined as brain parenchymal hematoma, and the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) scores increased by ≥4 compared with the baseline, or the patient died within 36 h after onset. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was used to determine the independent correlation between SII and HT and sICH after intravenous thrombolysis. The receiver operating characteristics (ROC) curve was used to evaluate the predictive value of SII for HT and sICH after intravenous thrombolysis. Results:A total of 352 patients with AIS received intravenous thrombolysis were enrolled, including 240 males (68.1%), aged 66.46±12.00 years. The median baseline NIHSS score was 8 (interquartile range, 5-13), and the median SII is 531.91×10 9/L (interquartile range, 351.20-896.91×10 9/L). HT occurred in 62 patients (17.6%) and sICH occurred in 27 patients (7.7%). Univariate analysis showed that the SII of the HT group was significantly higher than that of the non-HT group ( Z=–2.731, P=0.006), and the SII of the sICH group was significantly higher than that of non-sICH group ( Z=–4.125, P<0.01). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the increased SII was the independent risk factor for HT (odds ratio [ OR] 1.001, 95% confidence interval [ CI] 1.000-1.001; P=0.004) and sICH ( OR 1.001, 95% CI 1.001-1.002; P<0.01). ROC curve analysis shows that the area under curve of SII predicting HT was 0.610 (95% CI 0.535-0.686; P=0.006), and the best cutoff value was 488.48×10 9/L. The corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 69% and 47% respectively. The area under the curve of SII predicting sICH was 0.739 (95% CI 0.636-0.842; P<0.01), and the best cutoff value was 846.56×10 9/L, the corresponding sensitivity and specificity were 70% and 77% respectively. Conclusion:The increased SII at admission can predict the risks of HT and sICH in patients with AIS after intravenous thrombolysis.
