CRP and anemia: All-cause mortality was associated with higher age (p < 0.01), higher mRS at 3-month follow-up (p < 0.01), high CRP (p < 0.05), decreased LVEF (p < 0.05), smoking (p < 0.01), pre-stroke myocardial infarction (p < 0.05), pre-stroke angina pectoris (p < 0.05), eGFR <60 (mL/min) (p < 0.05), anaemia (p < 0.05), pre-stroke treatment with clopidogrel (p < 0.05) and no post-stroke treatment with aspirin (p < 0.05) (for details see Table 2).
