Abstract

Abstract : Abstract: This study aims to investigate the predictive values of the Chinese Stroke Scale (CSS) and National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) in the prognosis of patients with acute cerebral infarction. A total of 399 patients with acute cerebral infarction were assessed using CSS and NIHSS within 1 day after admission. Then, the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were established, and the area under the curves of these 2 scoring systems was compared. The area under the curve of CSS and NIHSS was 0.796 and 0.794, respectively. CSS and NIHSS have good predictive values for the prognosis of patients with acute cerebral infarction.
