A retrospective study about association of dynamic systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) with 180-day functional outcome after basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage

Abstract

ObjectivesThis study aimed to determine whether SII on different days of admission is associated with severity and 180-day functional outcomes after basal ganglia ICH. MethodsIn this retrospective study, data on baseline CT imaging characteristics, mRS, hematoma volume, and laboratory variables were included. The SII and NLR, LMR, and PLR were calculated from laboratory data collected on admission day, day 1, and days 5–7. Both univariate and multivariable logistic regression analyses were used to assess the association between the SII and the outcome. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis and area under the curve (AUC) were also used to evaluate the ability of the SII to predict outcomes. ResultA total of 245 patients were enrolled in the study. On different days, the NLR, PLR, and SII were significantly lower in patients with favorable outcomes than in those with poor outcomes, and the volume of hemorrhage was positively correlated with the SII. These parameters were associated with outcomes in the univariate logistic regression. In the adjusted analyses, the SII and PLR were independent predictors of basal ganglia ICH outcomes. ROC analysis revealed that the SII showed a stronger ability to predict the 6-month outcomes of patients after basal ganglia ICH than the PLR on different days (AUC = 0.642, 0.804, 0.827 vs. 0.592, 0.725, 0.757; all P < 0.001). ConclusionThe SII independently and strongly predicts the outcome of basal ganglia ICH. A high SII was associated with poor 6-month outcomes in patients with basal ganglia ICH.
