The prognostic power of blood biomarkers in ischemic stroke: a systematic review

Background: Blood biomarkers have emerged as potential indicators of poor outcomes following ischemic stroke, helping to monitor the onset of stroke-related processes. Identifying reliable and accessible biomarkers for assessing the prognosis of ischemic stroke patients remains a significant clinica...

The study also highlights the importance of the timing of biomarker measurements post-event such as within 24 hours after stroke which is crucial for accurate prognosis. The clinical factors also contribute to the progress of prognostication of ischemic stroke such as age, medical history, particularly hypertension and diabetes which could impact stroke outcomes.
