    Admission hyperglycemia is significantly associated with poorer long-term functional outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke patients.

  • 2

    Lower postoperative estimated glomerular filtration rate (post-eGFR) correlates with a decreased likelihood of achieving a good outcome at 6 months.

  • 3

    Mediation analysis indicates that postoperative renal function accounts for 25.57% of the total effect of admission hyperglycemia on outcomes.

  • 4

    The study included 397 patients, with 49.9% experiencing admission hyperglycemia and only 38.0% achieving a good outcome at 6 months.

    Understanding the relationship between admission hyperglycemia, renal function, and outcomes can help optimize treatment strategies for acute ischemic stroke.
