    The study examined the association between the red blood cell distribution width-to-albumin ratio (RA) and neurological outcomes after cardiac arrest.

  • 2

    Among 80 out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients, 10 had favorable neurological function, while the rest had unfavorable outcomes.

  • 3

    RA concentrations were significantly higher in patients with poor neurological outcomes compared to those with good outcomes.

  • 4

    The RA demonstrated excellent predictive accuracy for neurological outcomes, with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.90.

  • 5

    Elevated RA levels were independently associated with poorer neurological outcomes after cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
