Similar results were observed for IL-6 levels assessed in the 1st day since the stroke on discharge (cut-off point, IL-6 = 8.22 pg/mL, sensitivity = 85.7%, specificity = 100%, AUC = 0.921), after 90 days (cut-off point, IL-6 = 8.94 pg/mL, sensitivity = 78.1%, specificity = 75%, AUC = 0.731) as well as 1 year (cut-off point, IL-6 = 8.94 pg/mL, sensitivity = 78.1%, specificity = 75%, AUC = 0.777) since the stroke. Here, IL6 is linked to Stroke.
