Abstract:Previous studies have suggested that the D-dimer to fibrinogen ratio (DD/Fg) could be a potential predictor for deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, and stroke severity. However, the association between plasma DD/Fg and functional outcome following acute ischemic stroke (AIS) has been unclear. Our study followed the STROBE guideline and used a prospective cohort design to investigate this association. Patients with AIS were recruited, and the National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and modified … Show more
