LGALS3 and Stroke: In addition, as depicted in Table 2, the univariate Cox regression analysis revealing that besides Gal‐3 (HR = 1.17, 95% CI: 1.11–1.23, p < 0.001), other traditional and well‐established risk factors such as age (HR = 1.13, 95% CI: 1.07–1.20, p < 0.001), CHA2DS2‐VASc score (HR = 1.39, 95% CI: 1.13–1.71, p = 0.002) and history of cerebral infarction history (HR = 3.37, 95% CI: 1.13–8.45, p = 0.010) were also significantly associated with the occurrence of stroke.
