Table E-1. Results of the Logistic Regression Analyses with Symptomatic Intracerebral

Maestrini et al . S

Table e-1. Results of the logistic regression analyses with symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage, excellent outcome (modified Rankin Scale [mRS] 0 or 1 or equal to pre-stroke mRS), good outcome (mRS 0 to 2 or equal to pre-stroke mRS), or death as dependent variables. Model 1: with neutrophils count. Model 2: with leukocytes count. Model 3: with neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio. See text for definitions. sICH = symptomatic intracerebral hemorrhage; NIHSS = National Institute Health Stroke Scale; CI = confidence interval; OTT = Onset-to-treatment; CRP = C-reactive protein; BP = blood pressure; MI = myocardial infarction; NLR = neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio; AF = atrial fibrillation.
