Independent predictors of 90-day mortality were WBC < 6.4 × 10<sup>9</sup> /L (OR = 5.00, 95% CI: 1.49-16.78), baseline National Institute of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) score (OR = 1.13 per point, 95% CI: 1.01-1.25) and bleeding brain complications (OR = 5.53, 95% CI: 1.59-19.25) but not CRP ≥ 8.65 mg/L. This evidence concerns the gene CRP and Stroke.
