Baseline information, such as demographic variables, medical history, medication use, drinking status, and smoking status, were reviewed and recorded on admission. Systolic and diastolic pressures were measured twice using a mercury sphygmomanometer on admission. The average of the two readings was used for analysis. National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Glasgow Coma Scale scores were assessed by a trained investigator on admission.
