Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) serves as severity marker, and non-fasting triglycerides (TG) indicates remnants of chylomicrons and very low density lipoproteins potentially pro-inflammatory. Aims: to design predictive economic panel evaluating AIS. Patients and methods: 100(AIS) patients were included, clinically evaluated by Scandinavian Stroke Scale (SSS) and Modified Rankin Score (MRS), subjected to complete blood count (CBC) on Cell-Dyne3700, manual ESR, INR and APTT on SYSMEX-CA1500, serum uric acid (SUA), serum albumin and non-fasting (TG) on Beckman Coulter AU480. Statistical analysis: STATA intercooled version 9.2. Results: odd ratio (OR), confidence interval (CI) of (MRS) in correlation to WBCs count in quartile (Q)3, 4 (OR 8.14, CI 2.29 - 8.90, significant P = 0.01;and OD13.5, CI 3.39 - 53.68, high significant P = 0.001 respectively), to APTT in Q3 (OD 4.15, CI 1.09 - 15.82, P = 0.04), SUA in Q3 (OD 0.19, CI 0.05 - 0.68, P = 0.01), TG in Q3,4 (OD 0.24 CI 0.06 - 0.88, P = 0.03;and OD 0.09, CI 0.02 - 0.34 P = 0.001 respectively) and serum albumin in Q3(OD 0.13, CI 0.04 - 0.51, P = 0.003), insignificant correlations to ESR, INR and platelets. Conclusion: according to (MRS), the economic predictive panel should be included WBCs, APTT, SUA, and non-fasting TG with serum albumin as prognostic tool evaluating functional disability in AIS.展开更多
