Acute Phase Blood Glucose Levels and Functional Outcomes in Patients with Spontaneous Intracerebral Hemorrhage.

Maximum blood glucose levels and island sign were independently associated with unfavorable outcomes in patients without diabetes, whereas no glycemic variability indices were associated with unfavorable outcomes. Glucose levels influenced hematoma expansion and functional outcomes, particularly in patients without diabetes with sICH. Thus, clinical management of blood glucose levels should be strengthened for patients with sICH with or without a history of diabetes.
