Fasting Normoglycemia after Intravenous Thrombolysis Predicts Favorable Long-Term Outcome in Non-Diabetic Patients with Acute Ischemic Stroke
Background: Only a few studies evaluated the role of fasting glucose levels after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Importantly, formal analysis concerning the prognostic role of fasting glucose levels in these patients with and without diabetes mellitus (D...

description | Background: Only a few studies evaluated the role of fasting glucose levels after intravenous thrombolysis (IVT) in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). Importantly, formal analysis concerning the prognostic role of fasting glucose levels in these patients with and without diabetes mellitus (DM) was not performed. Therefore, we assessed whether fasting normoglycemia (FNG) next morning after AIS treated with IVT was associated with 90-day functional outcome in diabetic and non-diabetic patients. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 362 AIS patients treated with IVT at The University Hospital in Krakow. FNG was defined as glucose below 5.5 mmol/L. A favorable outcome was defined as modified Rankin score (mRS) of 0–2 at day 90 after AIS onset. Results: At 3-month follow-up, FNG was associated with favorable outcome (87.5% vs. 60.8%, p < 0.001) and decreased risk of death (3.1% vs. 18.1%, p = 0.002). Independent predictors of a favorable outcome for the whole group were: younger age (HR 0.92, 95%CI 0.89–0.95), lower NIHSS score after IVT (HR 0.70, 95%CI 0.65–0.76), lower maximal systolic blood pressure within 24 h after IVT (HR 0.92, 95%CI 0.89–0.95) and FNG (HR 4.12, 95%CI 1.38–12.35). Association between FNG and mortality was found in univariable (HR 1.47, 95%CI 0.04–0.62) but not in multivariable analysis (HR 0.23, 95%CI 0.03–1.81). In subgroup analyses, FNG was an independent predictor of favorable outcome (HR 5.96, 95%CI 1.42–25.1) only in patients without DM. Conclusions: FNG next morning after IVT is an independent protective factor for a favorable long-term outcome in non-diabetic AIS patients. |
