A novel nutritional index for predicting stroke-heart syndrome and clinical outcomes after endovascular treatment (opens in new tab)

BackgroundMetabolic-nutritional reserves influence stroke outcomes, but their role in large vessel occlusion acute ischemic stroke (LVO-AIS) treated with endovascular thrombectomy (EVT) remains unclear. We investigated whether the triglyceride-cholesterol-body weight index (TCBI) predicts dynamic myocardial injury after stroke and 90-day functional outcomes.MethodsThis two-center retrospective cohort study included 524 anterior-circulation LVO-AIS patients undergoing EVT (2020–2023). TCBI was...
