Abstract:
This study investigated significant correlations among
clinical variables in 80 stroke patients, focusing on age, blood pressure,
renal function, inflammation, and neurological scores. Supervised by
neurologists and cardiologists, data collected included systolic and
diastolic blood pressure, stenosis, ESR, creatinine, NIHSS, and mRS
scores(Modified Rankin Scale) , analysed with Pearson’s correlation in
JASP and Excel (p < 0.05, 0.01, 0.001). Key results reveal that age is
positively correlated with stenosis (r = 0.207, p = 0.050), indicating
vascular aging may elevate stroke risk. Stenosis also correlates with
creatinine (r = 0.287, p = 0.009), and ESR with creatinine (r = 0.221, p =
0.050), suggesting an inflammatory impact on renal health. Systolic BP
correlates with NIHSS (r = 0.227, p = 0.042) and mRS scores (r = 0.226, p
= 0.048), linking high BP to greater stroke severity and poorer outcomes.
NIHSS and mRS scores exhibit a strong correlation (r = 0.629, p < 0.001),
reinforcing their combined value in assessing impairment. Findings
highlight the role of vascular, renal, and inflammatory health in stroke
pathology, supporting a holistic management approach for improved
outcomes.
