Higher MPVLR (OR 1.114), atrial fibrillation (OR 2.553), symptomatic stenosis occlusion, and baseline NIHSS score were independent predictors of unfavorable functional outcomes at 1 year.
Observational (n=222)
Mean platelet volume-to-lymphocyte ratio, atrial fibrillation, symptomatic stenosis occlusion, and baseline NIHSS score independently predict unfavorable 1-year functional outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis.

Objective Intravenous thrombolytic therapy has become the standard of treatment for eligible patients with ischemic stroke. However, outcomes after receiving intravenous thrombolytic therapy vary widely. This study aims to investigate determinants of 1-year clinical outcomes of intravenous thrombolytic therapy for patients with acute ischemic stroke. Methods In a prospective, observational study, patients with acute ischemic stroke treated with intravenous thrombolysis were consecutively included, and clinical information and laboratory data were collected. The patients were followed up for 12 months after onset, and the 1-year clinical outcome was evaluated using modified Rankin Scale scores. A score ≥ 3 was defined as unfavorable functional outcome. Univariate and multivariate logistic regressions were used to assess the determinants of the 1-year clinical outcomes of intravenous thrombolysis for acute ischemic stroke. Results A total of 222 patients with intravenous thrombolysis were enrolled, and we identified 58 patients (26.1%) had unfavorable functional outcomes. Multivariate logistic regression analysis revealed that mean platelet volume-to-lymphocyte ratio (MPVLR) (odds ratio OR = 1.114, 95% confidence interval CI: 1.024–1.211, P = .012), atrial fibrillation (OR = 2.553, 95% CI: 1.086-6.002, P = .032), symptomatic stenosis occlusion (OR = 2.547, 95% CI: 1.269-5.110, P = .009), and baseline National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (OR = 1.141, 95% CI: 1.074-1.212, P < .001) were independent predictors of unfavorable functional outcomes at 1 year. Conclusions In patients receiving intravenous thrombolysis, we found that MPVLR, atrial fibrillation, symptomatic stenosis occlusion, and baseline NIHSS score were significant predictors of unfavorable functional outcomes at 1 year.
Zhai et al. (Sun,) conducted a observational in Acute ischemic stroke (n=222). MPVLR, atrial fibrillation, symptomatic stenosis occlusion, and baseline NIHSS score was evaluated on Unfavorable functional outcome at 1 year (modified Rankin Scale score ≥ 3) (OR 1.114, 95% CI 1.024-1.211, p=.012). Higher MPVLR (OR 1.114), atrial fibrillation (OR 2.553), symptomatic stenosis occlusion, and baseline NIHSS score were independent predictors of unfavorable functional outcomes at 1 year.
