Description
Josiah Cho and co-authors test whether a cheap inflammation marker predicts death after stroke on its own, in this 2026 conference report. A high C-reactive protein reading at arrival has long tracked with worse survival, but critics blame sicker patients, late arrival, or worse strokes. The team studied eight hundred fifty-three patients at a British stroke center.
High readings did predict ninety-day death. Correcting for illness burden, delay, and stroke severity shaved the link only slightly, and the marker stayed predictive on its own. The authors back it for early risk sorting, above all where resources run thin.
