Relationship between the blood neutrophil:lymphocyte ratio and response to intravascular mechanical thrombectomy in acute ischemic stroke with anterior circulation large vessel occlusion

Multivariate logistic regression analysis thus shows that NLR and a low thrombus burden are independent prediction factors for complete reflow in this collective of AIS patients. Patients with anterior circulation AIS coupled with low NLR and low thrombus burden prior to mechanical thrombectomy are more likely to achieve complete reflow.
