AbstractPurpose/aim of the studyMaterial and methodsResultsConclusionsTo identify the inflammation indexes associated with the severity and functional prognosis in ischemic stroke.A prospective study was conducted with ischemic stroke cases included in the i-ReNe clinical registry. Patients were divided into groups according to the severity on admission measured by the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and the functional prognosis at 30 and 90 days of discharge measured by the modified Rankin Scale (mRS).We included 145 patients with a mean age of 61.5 ± 12.75, 97 (66.9%) were men. The leukocyte and neutrophil counts, Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio (NLR), Derived Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte ratio (dNLR), Platelet-to-Lymphocyte ratio (PLR), Segmented Neutrophil-to-Monocyte ratio (SeMo ratio), and Systemic Immune-inflammation index (SII) were higher in moderate-to-severe stroke (NIHSS ≥6). NLR, PLR, SeMo ratio, and SII were higher in the group with severe disability and death at 30 days (mRS ≥4). In the multiple logistic regression analyses, SeMo ratio >14.966 and SII >623.723 were associated with moderate-to-severe stroke (NIHSS ≥6). In addition, SeMo ratio >7.845 was associated with severe disability and death at 30 days (mRS ≥4).Systemic inflammation indexes could be rapid and low-cost markers used in the initial evaluation of ischemic stroke, whose values could help to stratify patients according to their severity and functional prognosis. This is the first study to establish a relationship between ischemic stroke and the SeMo ratio. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
