Prognostic importance of nutritional assessment in patients with acute ischemic stroke undergoing endovascular thrombectomy. European Review for Medical and Pharmacological Sciences, 27(3), 960-968.1128-3602https://www.europeanreview.org/article/31189https://hdl.handle.net/11468/12631OBJECTIVE: The prevalence of malnutrition in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) can range from 8% to 34%. It has been shown that prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and control nutritional status (CONUT) scores can provide an opportunity to make prognostic predictions in some disease groups. Previous studies have shown a close relationship between malnutrition scores and stroke prognosis. We evaluated the effect of nutritional scores on in-hospital and long-term mortality in AIS patients undergoing endovascular therapy (EVT). PATIENTS AND METHODS: 219 patients who underwent EVT for the AIS were included in this retrospective design and cross-sectional study. The primary endpoint of the study was accepted as all-cause death including in-hospital death, 1-year death, and 3-years death. RESULTS: A total of 57 patients died in the hospital. In-hospital mortality rate was higher in the high CONUT group [36 (49.3%), 10 (13.7%), 11 (15.1%), p<0.001]. A total of 78 patients died within one year, and 1-year mortality was higher in the high CONUT group [43 (58.9%), 21 (28.8), 14 (19.2), p<0.001]. At the end of the 3-year follow-up, 90 patients had died, and the 3-year mortality rate was significantly higher in groups with a high CONUT score than in those with a low CONUT score (p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: A higher CONUT score, calculated easily by simple scoring with parameters studied from peripheral blood before the EVT procedure, is an independent predictor of in-hospital, 1-year, and 3-years all-cause mortality.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCONUTMalnutritionEndovascular treatmentPNIStrokeArticle273960968WOS:0009426322000172-s2.0-851486779093680834210.26355/eurrev_202302_31189Q2N/A
