Patients were admitted at the University Hospital of Santiago de Compostela (Galicia, Spain; cohort 1). Functional outcome was evaluated at 3 mo using the mRS. An mRS score >2 was considered poor prognosis. Data are numbers (%), means (SD), or medians [quartiles]. Data were compared among prognosis groups (goor prognosis vs. poor prognosis) using the χ2 test (proportions), the Student's t test (continuous variables with normal distribution), or the Mann-Whitney test (continuous variables without normal distribution, NIHSS). SBP, systolic blood pressure; DBP, diastolic blood pressure; INR, international normalized ratio; hs-CRP, high sensitivity C-reactive protein. Univariate analysis of variables from cohort 2 (Catalonia, Spain) is shown in Table S2.
