Meta-analysis of the Predictive Value of Controlling Nutritional Status Score for Short-term Prognosis of Stroke
Objective To systematically evaluate the predictive value of controlling nutritional status(CONUT)score for short-term neurological function and clinical outcome of stroke.Methods Cochrane library,PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,CNKI,Wan-fang,VIP,and CBM were searched by computer to find studies on the use of CONUT score to evaluate the nutritional status and follow-up of stroke patients from the establishment of the database to April 11,2023.Literature was searched and screened independently by two researchers.The Newcastle-Ottawa scale(NOS)was used to evaluate the quality of the included studies.Stata 15.Osoftware was used for Meta-analysis.Results A total of 12 literatures were included,all of which were high quality.Meta-analysis results showed that high CONUT score(≥2)was strongly associated with poorer functional outcomes(OR=1.41,95%CI:1.25-1.60,P<0.001,I2=49.4%),and associated with increased mortality(OR=2.85,95%CI:2.03-4.00,P<0.001,I2=0)increase.Conclusion High CONUT score may be a predictor of neurological recovery status and survival outcome in patients after stroke,and the prognostic mechanism of CONUT score in stroke patients is unclear and needs to be confirmed by further studies.
