Association of inflammatory and platelet volume markers with clinical outcome in patients with anterior circulation ischaemic stroke after endovascular thrombectomy.

Conclusions: MPV, PDW, and MPV/PC are associated with stroke severity. Higher NLR levels upon admission may predict unfavorable functional outcomes in patients with AIS after undergoing EVT.Abbreviations ACA: anterior cerebral artery; AIS: acute ischemic stroke; ASPECTS: alberta stroke program early CT score; BMI: body mass index; DBP: diastolic blood pressure; END: early neurological deterioration; EVT: endovascular thrombectomy; hs-CRP: high-sensitivity C-reactive protein; HT: hemorrhagic transformation; ICA: internal carotid artery; IL-6: interleukin-6; IS: ischemic progression; LAA: Large-Artery Atherosclerosis; MCA: middle cerebral artery; MPV: mean platelet volume; mTICI: modified thrombolysis in cerebral infarction; NIHSS: National Institute of Health stroke scale; NLR: neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; OTP: onset-to-puncture; PC: platelet count; PCT: procalcitonin; PDW: platelet distribution width; SBP: systolic blood pressure; sICH: symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhageWBC: white blood cell.
