TL;DR

The association between HGI levels and the risk of PSD during intensive care unit (ICU) stay in stroke patients during intensive care unit (ICU) stay in stroke patients was evaluated.

Abstract

The hemoglobin glycation index (HGI) has been introduced to reflect discrepancies between chronic baseline glucose and acute stress‐induced glucose changes. HGI has been linked to neurological recovery and poor prognosis among stroke patients. However, its role in poststroke delirium (PSD) remains to be clarified. This study aimed to evaluate the association between HGI levels and the risk of PSD during intensive care unit (ICU) stay in stroke patients.

Association between dysglycemia and mortality in patients with delirium: Based on the MIMIC-IV database.

The impact of acute glycemic dysregulation on mortality in delirious patients is moderated by underlying chronic hyperglycemia, suggesting individualized glucose management based on chronic glycemic status may be preferable to uniform strict control.

Relationship between endothelial activation and stress index in delirium patients and seven-day mortality: A retrospective study using inverse probability of treatment weighting

Early EASIX levels are independently associated with 7-day and 30-day mortality in delirium patients and may serve as a potential adjunctive marker for risk assessment in this population of adults diagnosed with delirium.

Association of the glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio with stroke-associated pneumonia among acute ischaemic stroke patients with dysphagia: a secondary analysis of hospital-based observational data

Stroke-associated pneumonia (SAP) is a frequent complication after acute ischaemic stroke, particularly in patients with dysphagia. The glucose-to-lymphocyte ratio (GLR) is a simple biomarker measured at admission reflecting stress hyperglycaemia and stroke-related immune suppression, but its value in dysphagic stroke...

Association of cerebral tissue oxygen saturation with the development of delirium in circulatory shock - a prospective observational cohort study.

Delirium is a frequent neuropsychiatric complication in critical illness associated with increased risk of long-term cognitive impairment and mortality. We hypothesized that lower cerebral tissue oxygen saturation (cStO2) levels measured with near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) associate with worse outcome, including mor...

Relationship Between Blood Urea Nitrogen to Albumin Ratio and Risks of Mortality and Delirium in Pancreatitis Patients: A Retrospective Analysis of the MIMIC‐IV Database

Background and Objective This study is aimed at evaluating the predictive value of the blood urea nitrogen‐to‐albumin ratio (BAR) for both mortality and delirium risk in patients with pancreatitis. Pancreatitis carries a substantial mortality risk and significant long‐term sequelae, with delirium being a severe neurolo...

Association between the triglyceride-glucose index and functional outcome at discharge in patients receiving standardized treatment for atherosclerotic and cardioembolic stroke

Objective The triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index is gaining considerable attention as an emerging marker of metabolic syndrome. The TyG index is strongly associated with atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease development. However, the impact of the TyG index on the functional outcome at discharge of patients receivin...
