Study participants and baseline characteristics
vessel occlusion stroke, stress hyperglycemia
STRESS HYPERGLYCEMIA
A total of 948 patients with acute large vessel occlusion stroke were enrolled from the 55 sites in the RESCUE BT trial, among which 406 patients had missing admission glucose values and were therefore excluded from this analysis. The baseline characteristics of the patients included and excluded are summarized in Table Baseline characteristic of the subgroups of trichotomized stress hyperglycemia ratio values
In these three groups, 180 patients had an SHR ≤1.07, 182 patients had an SHR value of 1.08–1.29, and 180 patients had an SHR value ≥1.30. As shown, patients with lower SHR had lower glucose (5.46 [4.96–5.89] vs. 6.89 [6.28–7.44] vs. 9.64 [8.16–12.30],
