IQR: interquartile range; WBC: white blood cell; LDL: low-density lipoprotein; BI: Barthel index. The baseline variables with in the univariate analysis were included in the binary logistic regression analysis. The results showed that the stroke course at admission (, –0.993, ) and the length of hospital stay (, –1.047, ) were the significant predictors of SI-ADL, while occupational therapy (, –15.017, ) and speech therapy (, –3.252, ) were not.
