Background: Inflammation plays a role in the pathophysiology of cerebral ischemic and also an initial response to brain injury. Inflammation involving Blood and Brain Barrier disturbance, leukocyte infiltration, endothelial cells activation, oxidant and inflammatory mediator buildups which can develop rapidly within hours and can cause secondary injury to brain tissues Objectives: To determine the correlation between Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio (NLR) and High Sensitivity C Reactive Protein (hsCRP) with severity and outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients Methods: This study used a cross-sectional design approach. Sampling was done at H. Adam Malik General Hospital Medan and taken as many as 38 subjects. NLR and hsCRP were examined on the first day of admission. Severity was assessed by using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale and the outcome was assessed by using the Modified Ranking Scale on the first and fourteenth day of admission. The data analysis used the contingency coefficient correlation test and gamma test. Results: Demographic characteristics of the subjects are; the average age is 62 years old, the highest educational level is high school graduate, and the most occupation is unemployed. There is a positive, moderate, and significant correlation between NLR and severity of acute ischemic stroke (r=0.511; p=0.001). There is a positive, moderate, and significant correlation between NLR and the outcome of acute ischemic stroke (r=0.463; p=0.001). There is a positive, very strong, and significant correlation between hsCRP and severity of acute ischemic stroke (r=0.896; p=0.001). There is a positive, strong, and significant correlation between hsCRP and outcome of acute ischemic stroke (r=0.624; p=0.001) Conclusions: There is a positive and significant correlation between NLR and hsCRP with severity and outcome in acute ischemic stroke patients.

The Mean

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has caused millions of deaths worldwide. Acute ischemic stroke is a life-threatening risk factor for COVID-19 infection. Neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) is one of the predictors of poor prognosis in acute ischemic stroke. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between NLR values and the clinical outcome of acute thrombotic stroke patients with COVID-19 that was measured using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). A cross-sectional hospital-based study was conducted in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital Surabaya, Indonesia. Patients with acute thrombotic stroke and COVID-19 admitted between 1 March 2020 and 31 May 2021 were recruited. The NLR values and the NIHSS scores were assessed during the admission and the correlation between NLR and NIHSS scores was calculated. This study included 21 patients with acute thrombotic stroke and COVID-19, consisting of 12 males and 9 females. The mean age was 57.6 years old. The mean NLR values was 8.33±6.7 and the NIHSS scores ranging from 1 to 33. Our data suggested a positive correlation between NLR values and NIHSS scores, r=0.45 with p=0.041. In conclusion, the NLR value is potentially to be used as a predictor of the clinical outcome in acute thrombotic stroke patients with COVID-19. However, further study is warranted to validate this finding.

Background: Stroke, a serious neurological disease is a major cause of death and disability throughout world. The pathophysiology of stroke involves inflammatory pathways, oxidative damage, apoptosis, angiogenesis and neuroprotection. High sensitivity C - reactive protein (hs-CRP) is associated with atherosclerosis and predict incident stroke in many patients. Objective of present study was to find out change in pattern of hs-CRP in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients during 3-months follow up and its prognostic significance.Methods: Single centre prospective cross-sectional time bound study. 256 were screened and 130 meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, of which 100 gave informed consent and 80 patients completed the study at 3 months. Demographic, clinical parameters including NIHSS scoring, biochemical analysis was collected at enrolment, discharge and at end of the study.Results: hs-CRP levels in AIS increased significantly (within 24 hours of stroke) and continued to increase further at discharge, while decreased significantly during 3 months follow up. >7mg/dl hs-CRP at admission had 3.5 fold higher risk of mortality. Age >60 years, metabolic syndrome, hyperlipidemic, SBP >160mmHg and hs-CRP > 7 mg/dL increases relative risk in AIS stroke patients by 1.42, 1.09, 1.11, 1.577 and 3.23 fold respectively.Conclusions: hs-CRP increased significantly in AIS patients during 1st weeks of stroke with subsequent gradual decrease by the end of 3 months, the severity scoring system could determine prognosis on admission to ICU while hs-CRP is the main factor determining short as well as long term prognosis. We recommend serial measurements of hs-CRP for prognostication in AIS subjects.

   ASSOCIATION BETWEEN ALTERED HS-CRP LEVELS AND  COGNITIVE FUNCTION OF ISCHEMIC STROKE PATIENTSABSTRACTIntroduction: The incidence of cognitive impairment in acute ischemic stroke patients is increasing. The mechanism of the inflammatory effect, such as  elevated hs-CRP level, a  non-specific inflammatory marker  sensitive to chronic inflammation due to hypoperfusion as well other vascular risk, is thought to have an effect on cognitive function.Aims: To determine the relationship of cognitive function changes in acute phase of ischemic stroke with hs-CRP level changes on day 3 and day 7 after onset.Methods: This was a cross sectional study of 31 first-timer ischemic stroke patients who met inclusion and exclusion criteria. The level of hs-CRP was checked on the 3rd day and 7th day after onset, while MoCA-Ina was assessed on the 7th day after onset. Cognitive disturbance was considered if MoCA <26. Analyses was done using SPSS 2.0Results: The average onset of day 3 Hs-CRP concentration was 0.66 (0.12-16.67)mg/dl and the onset of day 7 was 5.455 (0.14-17.34)mg/dl. The mean change of hs-CRP level between 3 day and 7 day after onset was -0,16 (-3.32-4.95). There was a significant correlation between elevated hs-CRP levels on day 3 and day 7 after onset with cognitive function of acute ischemic stroke patients.Discussion: There was a significant correlation between elevated hs-CRP levels on day 3 and day 7 after onset with cognitive function of acute ischemic stroke patients.Keyword: Acute ischemic stroke, hs-CRP, MoCA-Ina scoresABSTRAKPendahuluan: Insidens penurunan fungsi kognitif pada pasien stroke iskemik akut semakin meningkat.

Abstract Studies on the association of C-reactive protein (CRP) with all-cause mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients have yielded conflicting results. The objective of this meta-analysis was to evaluate the prognostic value of CRP elevation in predicting all-cause mortality amongst patients with acute ischemic stroke. We searched the original observational studies that evaluated the association of CRP elevation with all-cause mortality in patients with acute ischemic stroke using PubMed and Embase databases until 20 January 2018. Pooled multivariate-adjusted hazard ratio (HR) with 95% confidence intervals (CI) of all-cause mortality was obtained for the highest compared with the lowest CRP level or per unit increment CRP level. A total of 3604 patients with acute ischemic stroke from eight studies were identified. Acute ischemic stroke patients with the highest CRP level were independently associated with an increased risk of all-cause mortality (HR: 2.07; 95% CI: 1.60–2.68) compared with the lowest CRP category. The pooled HR of all-cause mortality was 2.40 (95% CI: 1.10–5.21) for per unit increase in log-transformed CRP. Elevated circulating CRP level is associated with the increased risk of all-cause mortality in acute ischemic stroke patients. This meta-analysis supports the routine use of CRP for the death risk stratification in such patients.
