Multifactorial stratified analysis of two novel metabolism-related indices for predicting stroke in mild cognitive impairment

1

The study evaluated the predictive value of the C-reactive protein-triglyceride glucose index (CTI) and Body Roundness Index (BRI) for stroke in mild cognitive impairment (MCI) patients.
2

Data from the China Health and Retirement Longitudinal Study (CHARLS) included 907 participants, with 81 experiencing a stroke during the follow-up period.
3

Each one-unit increase in CTI was linked to a 34% higher stroke risk among MCI patients, while BRI showed no significant correlation with stroke occurrence.
4

CTI's predictive performance remained consistent across different demographic groups, with optimal cutoff values identified ranging from 8.20 to 9.28.
5

The association between CTI and stroke risk was more pronounced in females, married individuals, and patients under 65 years of age.
