Journal Article
The association between malnutrition status and hemorrhagic transformation in patients with acute ischemic stroke receiving intravenous thrombolysis
2023
Overview
Objectives
We evaluated the impact of malnutrition as estimated by the controlling nutritional status (CONUT) score and prognostic nutritional index (PNI) on hemorrhagic transformation (HT) and stroke outcomes after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT).
Materials and methods
Using a multicenter registry database, we enrolled 808 patients with acute ischemic stroke who received IVT between August 2013 and May 2021. We defined malnutrition as a CONUT score ≥ 2 and low PNI. The primary outcome measure was the occurrence of symptomatic HT contributing to early neurologic deterioration (END-SHT) after IVT. Multivariable analysis was performed to analyze the association between CONUT score, PNI, and END-SHT after IVT.
Results
The rate of END-SHT was higher with increasing CONUT scores and PNI values. In the multivariable analysis, CONUT score ≥ 5 and low PNI were significantly associated with END-SHT (odds ratio [95% confidence interval], CONUT score ≥ 5: 12.23 [2.41–62.07], p = 0.003; low PNI: 4.98 [1.76–14.09], p = 0.003). The receiver operating characteristic curve showed that both the CONUT score and PNI had good predictive ability. The cutoff values for CONUT and PNI were 5 and 42.3, respectively, for END-SHT.
Conclusion
Malnutrition, as denoted by a higher CONUT score and lower PNI, was associated with END-SHT. The joint application of both nutritional markers could be useful in predicting END-SHT after IVT.
