Correlation between interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and modified early warning score of patients with acute ischemic stroke and their condition and prognosis

Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is closely related to the level of inflammatory factors. This study aimed to explore the correlation between interleukin-6 (IL-6), interleukin-8 (IL-8), and the modified early warning score (MEWS) of AIS patients and their condition and prognosis. The clinical data of 95 AIS patients admitted to our hospital from January 2019 to October 2019 were selected, and 91 cases were finally recruited to the study group according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria. A control group was recruited comprising 70 healthy patients. The differences in IL-6 and IL-8 levels between the 2 groups were compared. Multiple logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting the prognosis of AIS patients. A receiver-operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the predictive value of IL-6, IL-8, and MEWS for the poor prognosis of AIS patients. The levels of IL-6 and IL-8 in the study group were higher than those of the control group (P
