Glycemic variability with abnormal J-index following AIS is associated with adverse functional outcomes at discharge and increased odds of hemorrhagic conversion in patients treated with alteplase. Additional studies validating glycemic variability indices post-ischemic stroke are needed to determine the full clinical impact.
