Journal Article
McCall, S. J., Alanazi, T. A., Clark, A. B., Musgrave, S. D., Bettencourt-Silva, J. H., Bachmann, M. O., …Myint, P. K. (2018). Hyperglycaemia and the SOAR stroke score in predicting mortality. Diabetes and Vascular Disease Research, 15(2), 114-121. https://doi.org/10.1177/1479164117743034

Background:
We assessed the association between admission blood glucose levels and acute stroke mortality and examined whether there was any incremental value of adding glucose status to the validated acute stroke mortality predictor – the SOAR (str...
